Do you know the digits to the Griffin’s residence?  I do. In one of the episodes, their number was displayed on a flyer they were passing out.  I forgot which episode it was, but wrote it down on a piece of paper long time ago.  I came across it yesterday while I was cleaning my room.

555-0314

We know this phone number  is fake but nevertheless, digits are digits.  It’s known that the show takes place in the fictional New England suburb of Providence, Quahog, Rhode Island.  Seth MacFarlane, the show’s creator, in an interview with local WNAC Fox 64 News stated that the town is modeled after Cranston, Rhode Island.

Shepard, one of children’s literature’s most famous illustrators, has been sold for approximately $50,000.”  The sketch “shows Pooh dipping his paw into a pot of honey while sitting at a table as Piglet and Tigger look on.”  Here’s an image of the Pooh sketch.

The word “meh” from the seemingly immortal cartoon “The Simpsons” has entered the 30th edition of the Collins English Dictionary.  The term gained popularity since its initial use in a 2001 episode of “The Simpsons” in which Homer suggests going on a day trip to Bart and Lisa.

The dictionary defines “meh” as an expression of indifference or boredom, or an adjective meaning mediocre or boring.  Examples given by the dictionary include “the Canadian election was so meh.”

Other nominees for this year included jargonaut, a fan of jargon; frenemy, an enemy disguised as a friend; and huggles, a hybrid of hugs and snuggles.
