Will you commemorate April 29, 2017?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Yes. I'll watch a Family Guy marathon on that day.

[King]

Do I even want to be let in on this?

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Do I even want to be let in on this?

I know I don't.  Just vote no.

Why does this thread exist?

[King]

Oh I know what this is. It's my 13 year anniversary of joining the Atlas Forum. April 29, 2004, 07:10:16 pm.

Thanks for the commemoration, friend. I don't see why a Family Guy marathon is in order, though.

[Lief 🗽]

I commemorate the wedding anniversary of Prince William and Duchess Catherine every year, yes. I will not be watching any episodes of Family Guy to mark the occasion.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

That's interesting King. Quite notable what happened on your third anniversary of being on Atlas.

[Lief 🗽]

srsly tho, spill the beans brtd, none of us are going to solve this riddle

So your favorite episode of Family Guy's 10th anniversary?

[Joe Republic]

Oh, it's the 10th anniversary of Opebo Ingress strip clubs 10 minutes to Wapner hand-waving in church.  Fair enough.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

So is this like the episode that converted you to the Christian faith or something?

[King]

Ohhhh that's the episode with the Sneakers O'Toole cutaway. Okay.

[Bacon King]

Ohhhh that's the episode with the Sneakers O'Toole cutaway. Okay.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

sneakers o'toole is probably a cultural catholic

Well let's consider the possible interpretations of Sneakers O'Toole. One is that he is a representation of the homosexual community and their refusal to change for detractors in society. In that case it's safe to say he doesn't have much attachment to Catholicism. The second theory is he represents a terrorist threat to America, with the men in the suits representing the FBI and the CIA in their failure to protect America. If he's a fundamentalist Muslim, then it's possible that he was raised Catholic but obviously has now converted to Islam and has nothing to do with Catholicism at this point. The third theory is that he represents George W. Bush and his stubborn foreign policy, with the men in the suits representing the international community trying to prevent the invasion of Iraq, which he just shrugs off and continues along the way behaving like a spoiled child. George W. Bush isn't Catholic. The fourth theory is it's a parody of the "breakout character" with the way he was introduced out of nowhere. Such a character obviously could be Catholic, but it's worth noting in the very same episode the Griffin family is shown going to a church where the denomination isn't given, but is most likely some type of high church Protestant (see the reference to "Reverend" rather than "Priest"), so with the Catholic-style communion is likely either Episcopalian or perhaps high church Lutheran or Methodist. And it's well known that Peter is from an Irish Catholic family. Now of course they only attend because Lois is the organist and it's known that Lois is from a Protestant family but it's entirely possible that Sneakers O'Toole is from a similar marriage and thus like the Griffin children has an Irish surname but was not raised Catholic. It's also possible that he's a "mutt" with all sorts of different ancestries and just happened to end up with an Irish last name but with that representing only 1/4-1/16 of his total ancestry, in which case predicting the religious background one is raised in is almost impossible. For all we know he could be the descendant of an Irish convert to Mormonism. So unless Sneakers O'Toole makes another appearance, the truth is we don't know.

I want to watch you present your theories to Seth MacFarlane, and then I want to watch him slap you. 

[dead0man]

I assumed it was bullying related.

[Middle-aged Europe]

To answer the question... no, I won't.

[Cubby]

No

But I will sacrifice a goat to Odin on May 1, 2015

That's the 10 year anniversary of Family Guy returning to Fox after being cancelled.

The episode was North by North Quahog.

Nope, Sneakers and I are in the Hibernians together.
