WMG / Better Off Dead

• Lane mentions "I once made a birdhouse in wood shop and the fair housing committee condemned it". Considering the out of the way things that happen through out the film and how exaggerated his world is, this could have actually happened. They rebuild an engine in what appears to be in one Saturday, a guy brings a printer to class in a giant suitcase, Ricky's mom blew up, his little brother builds a vacuum cleaner rocket and seduces several adult women and lures them into his bedroom. All of this is rule of funny but taken literally, he lives in a strange world where the fair housing committee might condemn a birdhouse (or he's suffering a severe break from reality).
