There is an episode where Cartman drops "GTA: Chinatown Wars" by verbatim in every other dialogue for absolutely no reason. It was disgusting to watch, something I never thought T/M would ever do in their show. At least Guitar Hero was done with taste, the GTA plug was totally irrelevant. #southpark

@That mop mutant from NES.: You... completely missed the point there, Skippy. Knowing T&M, they were likely approached to advertise the game, and so they screwed them over by making it hilariously blatant.

They do that sort of thing all the time. Hell, the movie was all but built on pretending to be submissive and getting away with doing things that lesser shows have been cancelled for. #southpark

Wow, that song managed to hit number 1 on every music chart since 2008, yetI still managed an entire year without ever hearing it on the radio, in public places, or the net until now.

I guess I just listen to music I like, rather than the blankly-staring, constantly texting, Jeff Dunham/Tyler Perry watching masses' autotuned flavor of the month.

Wow... if only somehow this song could have managed to make it to the funeral I attended, then it would be the most played song in the past 10 years. #southpark

I just somehow never heard it. But I heard OF the song and her, but never realized it was such a huge hit until now.

The last time something like this happened was in middle school when everyone was on that "I'm Blue oh bla dee o bla da" and I had no idea what the fuck everyone was going on about until a month after the song faded out.

I only wish I was in your position where I can truly say I didn't hear this song at all. That would actually be very nice. :D #southpark

The wrestling episode was thé most boring episode i have seen yet.

The entire time i watched it i felt uncomfortable and unenjoyed. It dragged out, no jokes whatsoever, and it left me uneasy, like the feeling you need to pee real bad, but can't pause the game, and you have to watch the entire cutscene, whilst not knowing when it will end, just to not get mauled by the enemy with your dick in your hand.. #southpark

@D-K, a burning sensation: Southpark generally doesn't have jokes, the episodes and situations themselves are the jokes. That is why I have always like the show. There is the basic layer of haha he cussed or somebody pooped, but the episodes generally have an overall theme or direction that are gut busting if you are thinking about the show. Its intelligently lewd.

This week's though, I do not know what made me laugh more; cartman's performance over a montage of whale piracy, or seeing paul watson getting speared in the head. #southpark

You'd think people as up on the times as they are would know better than to totally mess up the Rock Band playing.

Also, the dolphins can just jump into space if they feel threatened.

In reply to South Park Let's Go Tower Defense Play! Review: Throwing Snowballs
I am not a huge Tower Defense fan. I enjoy one now and again (like PixelJunk Monsters and Defense Grid The Awakening)... but I enjoyed the demo for this game.... I may yet pick it up. The only other South Park game I remember having fun with was that 1st Person shooter that came out on the N64 back in the day. It had rough controls, but was enjoyable enough. I'd like to see it get a remake on XBLA/PSN... with better controls of course.
