Jokes you didn't get?
Sometimes, when I'm listening to an F Plus episode, a joke that gets a good reaction on the podcast just flies over my head, and I wonder what made it so funny. Other times I just mis-hear it and I'm not sure what's being talked about. So I made this thread, because I'm sure I'm not the only one who's missed a joke or two in F Plus episodes, whether it's a callback to a previous episode or a reference to something I haven't seen or listened to. The idea's simple: If there's something you didn't get, just ask here. If you see something that someone posted and you know what they're talking about, go ahead and answer. The only real guidelines for this thread are: 1) Don't make fun of someone for not getting a joke that you might think is obvious, and 2) For everyone's sake, don't ask about Oxy.

So I'll start us off with this one. Early in episode 103, Adam Bozarth remarks "Men get nothing but disrespect... and TWIIIIIIINS.", which ended up getting a good laugh from the other readers. I had a laugh because of the voice that was used, but I feel like I'm missing something there.

Here is a commercial for beer that is coincidentally the answer to your question!

And that explains why it went over my head at first - Coors is not a thing over here in the UK, so I'd never seen that ad before. Thanks STOG!

No Diggity and Unchained Melody are both pretty catchy songs, but I have no idea why the F+ seems to love them so much.  I demand an explanation!

A friend convinced me to watch a playthrough of Bioshock. So that's what "a man chooses, a fuckdoll gets fucked" was all about.

I don't understand the vast majority of nerd/geek/anime/videogame/internet references in our recordings so about half of the humor in any given episode is lost on me.

The only amusing instance of this was .....  We were reading about anime stuff (I think?) and someone asked something to the effect of "What do they call normal folks that aren't into this shit?"  Boots replied "They call them Muggles" 

At the time, I could only wonder why it was funny to reference those marshmallow cats that Portaxx liked from Final Fantasy. 

I finally saw one of the Harry Potter movies about a month ago.  I gave an audible "Oh, got it" and got a stare from an acquaintance who was watching the movie with me.  Rather than take the time to explain my recent stupid-ass epiphany, I said "So they're really British?  I just thought they were pretentious"

I promise this will be the last time I post about it but because it still kills a little piece of my soul:

 "There goes the fuckin' fandom!" Is clearly a riff on a user comment... but then Lemon and Squiddee launch into this "Watch as it fly by--BAD LLYANDING!". Followed by a very accented "Oh my gawwwd!"

It sounds like a reference to something the way it's delivered, but apparently no reference exists.sadly, my stupid brain won't leave it alone.

One thing I've always been confused about is something Lemon says a few times - the phrase "I got fiiiiive on it!" I mean, Google has told me that it's a song, but I seem to be missing why it's being referenced when it is.

"I got five on it" means you're claiming $5 worth of ownership on someone else's sack of weed. It is indeed a terrible song (chorus at 2:45) as well as (confusingly) a porn series I'm not going to find a link for because I'm at work right now.

I looked this one up and he's apparently Walt Jr. on Breaking Bad. I haven't seen it either.

Imagine that one of the whiny teenagers on schoolsurvival/tumblr/wherever had a narcissistic meth kingpin for a father but was too stupid to notice, and therefore continued to spend all their time complaining about the sort of crap read in that episode. In the voice used in that episode.

Somebody said something like "You forgot bacon!" in the NaNoWriMo episode and I wound up rewinding to hear it again to no avail. Why bacon?
