Daibhid C: I'm a bit confused by this:
- Futurama has an example in the boy from the pair of Victorian dressed Street Urchin children who are recurring characters. They are clearly meant to evoke Dickens, as his crutch is identical to that famously used by Tiny Tim, although what the writers seem to have missed was that Tiny Tim was not one of Dickens' urchin characters. Then again, it's Futurama; it was probably on purpose.
Tinny Tim is presumably the character referred to, but he's not one of a pair of urchins; has someone got him confused with Patches and Violet from The Simpsons?
Peanut: Would the whole Say Anything boombox outside the window thing go here?
