Funny Line:
Leslie: Okay, my next song's called, "Phoebe Buffay, What Can I Say? I Really Loved When We Were Singing Partners, And I Shouldn'tve Left You That Way."
Phoebe: Oh no, one of those “look-for-the-hidden-meaning” songs.
Great Exchange:
Monica: Oh, can I borrow this? My milk's gone bad.
Chandler: Oh, I hate that. I once had a thing of half and half--stole my car.
At the end of the episode, Chandler announces he had his third nipple surgically removed, saying, “Yep! Two nipples, no waiting.” Monica retorts, “Wow, just like Rachel in high school.” When Rachel takes offense, Monica reassures her that it was just an obvious joke, and Chandler, realizing that it was an obvious joke, wonders why he didn’t think of it, horrified that his third nipple was the source of his sarcastic sense of humor. It apparently doesn’t occur to him that perhaps the reason he didn’t think of it is that he didn’t know Rachel in high school.
Is this the one where we first hear "Smelly Cat"?
No. It was heard at least as early as The One Where Eddie Moves In(2.17). At least, that's the first episode listed on the Single Document Episode Guide in which the phrase "smelly cat" appears.
One of my best friends from high school, who like me, liked to draw, had a wooden leg, and you could tell by the way he walked, swinging his right leg in large movements. Ginger's walk, however, is perfectly normal, and shows no indication of a prosthesis. Does anyone know if some people with prosthetic legs show no signs of it when they walk?
Yeah, I had a friend (well, more of a friend of a friend) who had a metal prosthesis, and he walked almost perfectly. If you were around him for any great length of time, you'd notice that he favoured his left leg just a *little*, but not noticible at all when he was walking, only when he was standing still for a period of time.
Do you know if perhaps your friend's friend's leg smaller, like say, from the knee down, like my grandfather's, and prosthetics are more noticesable when they're full-leg prosthetics? My friend Woody (that was his nickname because of his leg)'s leg was an entire leg. The episode indicates that Joey confused her leg with a log for the fire.
I once knew a man with a wooden leg named Smith.
What was the name of his other leg?
Thank you. I was waiting for that.
Luigi Novi: Do you know if perhaps your friend's friend's leg smaller, like say, from the knee down
Dan Gunther: Hmmm... good question... my guess would be that it was probably just from the knee down. I don't know for sure, as he only showed us by lifting the cuff of his pants a few inches.
Phoebe's ending song:
"Jingle ••••• screwed me over!
Go to hell, jingle whore!
Go to hell, go to hell, go to hell-ell-ell!!!!"
Heh heh!
You can say whore but you can't say •••••?
Weird!
ANother thing I wonder about this ep. Why would Chandler's Have-To-Go-To-The-Bathroom-Really-Bad urge go away *just* because an attractive woman comes out of the men's room (only cuz the woman's room was occupied, that kind of thing does happen so I'll overlook it) and he decides to chat her up instead of relieving himself?
I would never do that, believe me! And in my opinion, that aspect of this ep is not well-written, as it seemed to very clumsily introduce the wooden leg woman to the plot. Suspension of disbelief. This one didnt have it!
And whatever happened to Sherilyn Fenn, anyway? Did she ever work again after this? I remember her from "Ruby", "Boxing Helena", and the softcore porn film "Two Moon Junction", but those were all from the early-mid 90s! It's like her star power fizzled out and she was not in anything else ever again.
And whoever reads this, PLEASE dont post a link to her IMDB profile, because in this case I *really* dont care. Thanks anyway!
