[edit] Toot inhaling Helium?
I don't think there was Helium in the ballon that Toot sucked empty. Her voice while saying "hihihi, Toot" is as high as ever and since the housemates are having a drug party it might be more probably that she has inhaled laughing gas. See also Effects of nitrous oxide on the body: it is unsafe to inhale while standing up - Toot got killed because her head knocked on the table's edge. --Mikli 10:24, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
- I haven't heard of balloons being filled with laughing gas, but regardless, I don't think there's any reason to suspect Toot inhaled nitrous oxide. The housemates weren't having a drug party, just a booze party. Toot might have fallen over because she was drunk; helium also could have made her lightheaded and caused her to fall over. And as for her voice not changing, I think the joke was that Toot's voice is so high anyway that helium wouldn't make it any higher.Raymondluxuryacht 11:20, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

- See this: "most recreational users will discharge the gas into a balloon [...] before inhaling." - so why not? --Mikli 16:32, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Drunken Ling-Ling
Regarding this note:
While Clara and Foxxy Love are kissing each other, we see Ling-Ling lying passed out at the edge of the hot tub with a bottle of whiskey in his hand. This spoofs the perception that Asians are more sensitive to alcohol than people of other races.
This really seems to be jumping to conclusions. Just because we see Ling-Ling drunk, that automatically means they're referencing an Asian sterotype? We don't know exactly how much he drank; it's just as likely to be a gag on his small size (the bottle he was holding was almost as big as he was). I admit that it's possible they're referencing a stereotype, I just don't think it's probable enough to note.Raymondluxuryacht 08:58, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Drawn together 1x01.jpg
Image:Drawn together 1x01.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Toot's static
In this episode, whenever Toot's voice is heard, the audio is crackly as if it were recorded on old tape. Obviously due to Toot being a "'20s Sex symbol". I think it is worth noting as, to my knowledge, this is the only episode where it occurs. In all subsequent episodes, Toot's voice is normal. I would put it in myself, but I can't think of a good way to word it. Is there a technical term?
- I think tape hiss is the word you're going for. I went ahead and added it to the page.Raymondluxuryacht 04:05, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] What I did
I removed a lot of reptitive info (how many times can Blue Ball be mentioned?) and some of the more confusing ones. Why call the pixelization censoring when the pixels themselves were part of the joke? It's not censoring then. Lots42 05:05, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
