I like looking up things mentioned by old comics...I think that the "Milk Fund benefit" and Willard Johnson was a boxing match of Willard vs. Johnson at Yankee Stadium. http://www.espn.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=3600048

The Bloop posted:It isn't a thousand yard stare or anything, it just looks like he is vaguely contemplating a shoe, like wondering how it's laced up or something Taken without context it's not even obvious that the object in his hands is a shoe, he might as well be working on a Lego starship. Probably partly because some sneakers don't look like shoes, but also because it's the size of his body/head.

The Dinette Set respects the classics. Working Daze doesn't make sense to anyone under 30.  Super-Fun-Pak Comix needs to wash its mouth out with soap.

Tiggum posted:So if you only count these three channels and only during certain hours, there are only four soap operas? That seems pretty meaningless. In the US, at least, when people bring up "Soap Operas," it's a specific style of show that gets aired by those networks in the daytime hours. It's episodes aired every weekday, usually shot cheaply on video, and have been long-running for decades. It's a style that is rarely seen outside of that time-slot and you don't see them on cable really. There are prime-time show that you could easily make argument that they're soaps in spirit but it wouldn't be what most Americans understand soap operas to be.
