A "Juggalo" is a fan of the band Insane Clown Posse, about as diametrically removed from a democratic politician as you could think of. 75.103.23.206 17:09, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

More specifically, she has a reputation for being stern and somewhat humorless making her an even better contrast to a Juggalo KingDragonlord (talk) 17:30, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm new so I don't want to overstep bounds and just edit the page but I think it would be clearer to just say the TARDIS is a time travel device. Anyone not familiar with the tv series is not going to care what TARDIS is an acronym for. KingDragonlord (talk) 17:27, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

I think having the expansion of TARDIS is fine, but you are correct there should be a mention of what a TARDIS is, and a link to the wikipedia article for the TARDIS. You are fully free, and welcomed to edit any explanation that you think is lacking information. The worst that could happen is someone reverts your edit and leaves a note on your talk page about why. lcarsos_a (talk) 19:22, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

According to Craigslist itself, Missed Connections has never worked. They're still waiting for a testimony for its first success.76.29.225.28 18:20, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

The Nancy Pelosi/Juggalo entry was a specific reference to an event at the White House that Republican commentators branded as a wild party even though it was not. 108.162.221.86 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)

I thought that the second entry was a reference to Plato's cave... Anyone else think that? 141.101.98.185 18:22, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

Apparently not! -Pennpenn 108.162.250.162 02:11, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

I think the Babe Ruth joke is likely a reference tothe Abbott and Costello Who's on First sketch, where The Doctor =Doctor Who = The Who that is on first = Babe Ruth. I've added it to the description but think it could be done better. I also don't know enough about baseball - would Babe Ruth ever be on first? (I know that The Doctor hasn't been called "Doctor Who" person for a long time, but people do still refer to him as Doctor Who) 172.69.43.170 21:28, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
