The Episode's Ending

The way it is summarised here it implies that Barney has now become addicted to coffee. But since Barney burps like that after consuming alcohol and since Moe laughs maniacally I always took it to mean that Moe had spiked his drinks and that he was still fuelled by booze. What do people think? 88.107.152.218 (talk) 10:49, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure to be honest, there are a few other epsisodes where he is drinking coffee in Moe's, but the continuity just seems to be changed to suit the ep. he's in. Elcaballooscuro (talk) 06:47, 14 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Address

Having way too much time on my hands I stoped this ep. while the TV is showing the address for the competion, which flashes too fast (a number of times) to normally see clearly. It says;

Springfeild Bell

Spring Field, USA

P.O. Box 2153-1264

Room RR-312-BB5

Not being a US citizen I would'nt know if this is a real address or not, but I thought it would be funny to find out where it is if it is real. Anyone know? Elcaballooscuro (talk) 23:52, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There's no state in the address, so no. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.167.113.172 (talk) 10:42, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect

I recently made a redirect from "Days of Wine and (Annoyed Grunt)'ses", but then I noticed that similar redirects for the episodes "C.E. D'oh" and "We're on the Road to D'ohwhere" were deleted, and I almost made one for "He Loves to Fly and He D'ohs". The only redirect of this vein that still exists is the one for "D'oh-in in the Wind". If episodes with "(Annoyed Grunt)" in their titles still have redirects from articles with "D'oh" in its place, why can't there be more than one of the same with the other way around? — NES Boy (talk) 00:34, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Babf14.jpg

Image:Babf14.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Comments

Where is the production code (infobox) referenced?

The external link: "Days of Wine and D'oh'ses episode capsule". The Simpsons Archive.

"Barney becoming sober because they did not think a sober Barney would be funny" bit repetitive with Barney and sober being used twice in quick succession.

Reworded

Same for " critics, including Chris Turner, have also criticized "...

Reworded

I don't think it's appropriate to part-link a quote as you have with the blackboard gag.

Fixed the quote

Two paras starting with "Meanwhile..." is repetitive.

Fixed

"new bike" bicycle?

Fixed

" leaving them in" placing them in. Or putting them in...

Putting them

"to do an " feels clumsy, to write an, to create an...?

Fixed

"He told the idea to Lacusta," -> "He told Lacusta of the idea"

Fixed

Our article on showrunner has it as a single word.

Showrunner is one word

"Alone Again, Natura-diddly" should have a capital D.

Fixed

Are there any viewing figures available?

Fixed

" have commented on Barney becoming sober. IGN staff members commented i" comment is quick-repeated...

Fixed

Prism Awards (prose) or PRISM Awards (ref).

Faxed

Short and sweet, hence only a handful of reasonably straightforward comments, so I'll put it on hold while we deal with them. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 09:56, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
