* In ''Podcast/HowDidThisGetMade'', host Paul Scheer somehow missed the fact that ''Film/TheApple,'' a film about a man and a woman being tempted by a character clearly supposed to be {{Satan}} offering them a giant apple, was supposed to be a metaphor for the Garden of Eden story. June Diane Rapheal, normally the group's CloudCuckooLander, had to point this out to him.

--> To cap it all, I was very offended at the end of my stay, when I was expected to pay the bill. I found this both awkward and uncomfortable, especially as I had no money. I was then moved to a room that looked almost like a prison cell, which I'll be reviewing next week. And let me warn you: It's not going to be pretty! Thank you!
** Also this episode:
--> As I was putting on my bicycle clips and getting ready to leave later in the day, I was heartened to see that my overnight work on the carpet in my room had been discovered, as all of the staff had come to show their appreciation by throwing a generous amount of fruit my way, obviously trying to make up for the mistake they'd made at breakfast.

* The "Illuminati Confirmed" meme parodies the ConspiracyTheorist trope by taking random images and pointing out the presence of triangles, the number three, or other things with vague resemblances to Illuminati symbols in an image as "proof" that the Illuminati is up to something. A common trend in these is to take something with an obvious reference to the Illuminati, and ignore it in favor of a hard-to-notice triangle shape. The crowning example of this may be [[http://imgur.com/I0C5MC3 a picture of a newspaper ad page]] with an ad for the Illuminati Secret Society, which is ignored in favor of a photo of a woman whose nose is shaped like a triangle.
