* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: This may not count as an actual example as it was entirely accidental (one of the episode's writers had heard his Jewish grandmother use the word metaphorically and didn't find out the actual meaning until she herself saw the episode in question), but the episode "Bupkis" (about a song of the same name) features prominent use of the word "bupkis," with characters claiming that it's "a Yiddish word meaning 'nothing'." "Bupkis" is a Yiddish word meaning "goat shit."
