Why doe you keep deleting the cultural references? All other SP articles have them!--Cartman0052007 03:01, 18 October 2007 (UTC)
Because they are usually tedious unsourced statements? 77.99.186.110 (talk) 22:43, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
I think the whole biggest crap measuring thing was a reference to the news about the recent heaviest baby born at 17lbs in brazil? i think someone should put that in the article —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.90.154.157 (talk) 01:42, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Do not think that 24.95.66.88 was vandilising because I was not signed in and I was trying to revert vandilism and messed up. --Xxhopingtearsxx 02:08, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Does anybody recall the name of the society in Zürich? I believe it was something like "European Society of Fecal Standards and Measurements," but I'm not sure. The name of the society should probably be included somewhere in the article. Aasartor 05:11, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
The building of the society looks like the main center of the ETH Zürich www.ethz.ch. (Swiss Federal Technical University) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.73.144.207 (talk) 13:34, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
Whats the name of the song in the bar when the guys are in there? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.136.38.219 (talk) 08:39, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
There is a possible reference to Little Britian when Bono gets "Bitte" 83.100.210.231 12:37, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Not to be anal, but shouldn't 'Courics' here be in lowercase, as are other units of measurement named after people (volts, watts, newtons, etc.)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.2.124.11 (talk) 16:04, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Actually, units named in honor of a person are usually written in capitals. Volts, Watts, Newtons. Or also consider the example of the way we abbreviate kilowatts as kW. Little k, big W. It helps distinguish the Coulomb (C) from the speed of light unit (c). Or Newton-meters (Nm) from nanometers (nm).
Anyway, I originally came to this topic, to ask, what is the cultural reference to Courics, being used as the unit of measurement for crap? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.126.62.22 (talk) 00:13, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
I'm deleting the final point of the pop culture references, about South Park putting out "more crap" every week, unless someone comes up with a source from the authors. --El Pollo Diablo (Talk) 18:00, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
was it just me, or did they purposely display the emmy award at times in the episode that seemed particularly (uh) *unclassy*? 24.59.148.187 22:38, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
Any response? Any reason why Bono was chosen specifically? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.108.131.228 (talk) 03:19, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
The link to the European Fecal Standards & Measurements Board is not to a real site. As in the site did not exist before the episode aired. The society doesn't exist. Someone created the site for the sole purpose of the episode. I'm removing the link to the site.
Here is the whois information on this site Whois Olandir 03:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
You are right, this site is obviously a fake and shouldn't be linked here, it's back, but I'll delete it again. --84.114.130.170 13:04, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm wondering if this is intentional or not, but the episode number, 162, is also the number of times "shit" is mentioned in It Hits the Fan, and the episode title may reference that fact as well. It may be worth mentioning if there was official word on this... --Geopgeop 15:49, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Is the real life image of Bono really neccasary? It's hardly relevant to the article, and just feels out of place. I've removed it twice, but somebody keeps re-adding it. I'm going to continue removing it until someone gives me a good reason why I should not.--Swellman 21:10, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
"He is the only person ever to be nominated for a Golden Globe, an Academy Award, and the Nobel Peace Prize." - They probably had to add the Golden Globe line once Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize last week. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.71.244.119 (talk) 07:15, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
While it's noteworthy that Randy did indeed kind of win a Nobel Prize once, it has been firmly established that the continuity in South Park is not a set thing, and they play with it all the time whenever it's convenient. I think a note about that in the main South Park article (maybe there is one?) is enough, and there's no point mentioning continuity errors spanning multiple episodes, let alone seasons. Only if there's an error within the episode do I think it should be in the article. Professor Chaos 05:51, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
TO whoever it was who kept introducing this cultural reference to little britain - i kept deleting it as it was unsourced; however on south park's official FAQ page, they have now admitted that it was indeed taken from Little Britain: so please feel free to re-add it. however, make sure to include this link as a reference http://www.southparkstudios.com/show/faq/faq_archives.php?month=10&year=2007 :)Warchef 21:47, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

The section labeled 'Detail' is a better plot summary then the section labeled 'Plot'. Very confused. Lots42 (talk) 11:48, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
I would really like to know what drove the painters, authors or producers of South Park to make fun of the Swiss Feredal Insitute of Technology Zurich (ETH Zurich) (the building of the European Fecal Standards & Measurements Institute really looks like the main building of the ETH Zurich, I know that because I live in Zurich and I work at the ETH Zurich). Maybe somebody of the people involved with South Park had a bad experience there? Don't get me wrong, I'm not offended. I love South Park, I just would like to have some insight on the topic.
To Clarify: Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ETH_Zurich and see the third picture down (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:ETH_Dome.jpg). Then consult this screenshot from the episode: http://pds6.egloos.com/pds/200710/11/11/e0040411_470dc4906dcbb.jpg. As I already said, I live and work there, so I know the place quite well. It is stated in the episode that this building is supposed to be in Zurich, and there really are not that many buildings like that here.
Maybe this picture might be helpfull too: http://www.gmw06.ch/Vor_Ort/Bilder/Semper-Bau-Raemi-b.gif —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.162.206.14 (talk) 20:07, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Please don't get into a revert war over the spelling of a measurement of poop. For crying out loud. Lots42 (talk) 05:57, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
There has been some speculation over whether or not the spelling of the measurement of fecal matter referred to in this episode should be spelled "Kuric" as Yukichigai (talk) has recommended "per the EFSM website" or whether it should be spelled "Couric."
If one were to view the clip Crap Verification s/he would find that at the 1:10 point of the clip the exact words that are used to define what the EFSM refers to as "the standard measuring unit for human feces" is "one Katie Couric is approximately 2.5 lbs of excrement." This should be proof enough that the measurement should be spelled "couric" as opposed to "kuric."
Yes, Yukichigai (talk) does cite the EFSM website as the source for spelling the word "kuric", but as we can see from Talk:More Crap-European Fecal Standards & Measurements Board there is much speculation about this website being a valid reference source. If one were to go to SouthParkStudios.com and conduct a website search for the words "courics" or "couric" one would find data on this episode. On the other hand, if one were to conduct another website search for the words "kurics" or "kuric" one would come up empty handed on receiving any data on this episode. Because Southparkstudios.com is the official website of this show I would consider it to be a much more valid reference source than that of the EFSM website which has already been looked at skeptically.
I'm pretty sure that this episdoe, like most, was written by Trey Parker. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rayfinkle1 (talk • contribs) 03:24, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
I think this is the turning point episode where Parker/Stone revealed how sexist they REALLY are. Of course the sexism was there always, but it got much worse after this one ("Eat, pray, queef" and such tripe). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.183.125.28 (talk) 16:05, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Seriously, this is a comedy. A satirical one. They make fun of EVERYTHING, including both women and sexism. So please, stop. Please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.250.67.152 (talk) 20:20, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
The question in my in mind is what they have not made fun of. Come to think of it, they have not made fun of Gordon Sumners (his name is Sting). Family Guy has already made fun of Sting.(82.134.28.194 (talk) 07:07, 10 June 2010 (UTC))
When examening the pooh, the staff members of the €pean Standards on.....spoke something that did not seem like German. Was it Schwyzerdütsch?
More of a weird assumption of what Swiss german would Sound. Kind of like the weird stuff they put in movies when they want sth to sound german but have no idea about it. KhlavKhalash (talk) 19:16, 30 November 2019 (UTC)
Has anyone noticed that Randy Marsh moved in a clockwise fashion while taking a crap? Is it because his crap was counter-clockwise due to the coriolis effect?
