Meaning of title?
[edit]Is snuke supposed to be slang for "suitcase nuke"? (65.30.183.187 21:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC))
Well we'll just have to wait and see, won't we? (Slickshooter001 19:11, 26 March 2007 (UTC))
GODDAMMIT! TELL ME!!! TELLLL MEEEEE!!!I am Paranoid 02:03, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
This is not a forum, don't treat as such. --Ssault 21:50, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
- I wasn't treating it as a forum. The meaning of the title is relevant to the article. I was unable to find anything meaningful about the term in a google search, so was asking if anyone knew what it stood for. This was NOT a forum-type posting; it was directly related to the page. If someone came up with a concrete answer, it would've been added to the page. (DrZarkov 20:33, 28 March 2007 (UTC))
In South Park, it was just revealed that it is a suitcase nuke. ---- GIGGAS2 | Talk 02:12, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
it means snatch nuke —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.189.93.43 (talk) 20:28, 28 March 2007
- Correct. Since there was a suitcase nuke in Hillary Clinton's vagina or "snatch" as it was referred to in the episode, they coined to word "Snuke." Jackryan 15:26, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Factual information
[edit]All and any information posted on the page for The Snuke must be factual. Any infomation that is speculation, rumor, hear-say, etc etc etc will be removed, no discussion. This is not the therapist office where he holds up the ink blots, and you say what you think you see. This is not the place to use words like "seem" "perhaps" "resembled". If you want to speculate about something in the episode, go to an IRC channel, or wait till school Thursday. --Ssault 01:06, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Cultural Reference
[edit]- The reference to The Sum of All Fears is unfounded and too far fetched, the story suggests only 24 -NeoApocalypse 10:27, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Counter-Strike reference is also BS. -NeoApocalypse 10:31, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Temp page.
[edit]I've created a temp page. It's currently a substub, but at least it isn't a copyvio. Will 12:23, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
--South Park Studio's stuff has been used before, and it is used on many sites as well. Is it really a copyright violation, being as it is a press release? Or can we just quote it and cite it correctly and all is well (cite images as well, which are press releases). I don't know copyright laws so someone who does might look into this. --Ssault 17:52, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- I re-added a fair use version of the press release. I know it lacks a large amount of important information, but this is the best we can do. Maged123 20:54, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Thanks Maged, that's about all we can do. The link is right there, so if people want more info, they can click. Obviously when the episode airs, people can edit in their own words of the plot. --Ssault 21:27, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
- I just did some more research into the copyright status of press releases and found that we are not alone... Maged123 21:37, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
Myspace
[edit]The name of the Arab boy and if the Myspace exist for him, link needed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.207.117.147 (talk) 02:15, 29 March 2007 (UTC).
- Has anybody made a myspace for Bahir Hassam Abdul Hakeen? --Kalmia 01:53, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
Is Kyle high?
[edit]- Kyle is probably high on cold-medicine (3rd reference in the series) the short red bottle suggests Dayquil. NeoApocalypse 10:19, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think he is, but I got the same idea when I saw all the bottles. He has already used DXM in the show so if he actually were on a trip it would show XVertigox 21:27, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Hillary Clinton
[edit]Who keeps on taking out the stuff about Hillary Clinton faking her southern accent? (was up there before) or her big butt? (also in another episode). Come on, now.
So, what exactly happened to Hillary when all was said and done. The snuke didn't go off but there was no explanation to why her vagina ate the other guy. I'm dissappointed. Julie 04:41, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- I can knock this out in 250 characters. Ok, you ready? Here it goes. They did just leave it at Hilary Clinton having a man-eating vagina, yes, but when you think about the way she's portrayed everywhere, you'll see that's not really a bad thing. She's a cold-hearted bitch, and they were just making fun of that. So that part should at least be self-explanatory even if they decided not to go into further detail with it. 363. Damn. --71.112.10.205 20:25, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Reference to vagina dentata N1mr0d 15:26, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
no, there must be an other meaning of this scene. i think i remember a film, there´s a scene where a man crawls into something like a burrow. he talks through a radio to other people which are outside and say he can see something, its stitting infront of him and than looks at him. last thing u can hear, hes screaming... but i can't tell the name of the film -.- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.163.168.99 (talk) 05:31, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
Where Bathir is from
[edit]According to his mySpace page in the show Bathir just moved from Chicago and the reason Cartman suspects he is a terrorist is because his favorite band on his mySpace page (i forget what it is) does not match what he told the kids at school (Blink-182). Should this be updated in the main page? 192.104.67.222 10:56, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- His favorite band on his mySpace page: The White Stripes
- Do you think it's relevant? Then add it please. --DampfYente 12:54, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
CTU - internal link
[edit]Could someone please link "CTU" (twice in article) directly to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_(TV_series)#Counter_Terrorist_Unit ? --DampfYente 12:47, 29 March 2007 (UTC) Na cartman just thinks hes a terrorist b/c hes a MUSLIM —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.246.68.203 (talk) 00:23, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Character parallels?
[edit]Does this fall under WP:NOR? There is already one (Bill=Alan), and there are at least two others(Cartman and Jack, Kyle and Chloe, Vladimir and Gredenko, etc) Will 14:03, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
The British newspaper,the Daily Mail called this episode the "most spectacularly offensive episode yet" http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=445340&in_page_id=1773&in_page_id=1773&expand=true#StartComments —The preceding unsigned comment was added by PheonixUK (talk • contribs) 13:00, 29 March 2007.
Miss Clinton
[edit]I am curious, why is Hillary Clinton referred to as 'miss' by her assistant in the car? Wouldn't 'misses' be the correct way of adressing her? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 217.121.178.196 (talk) 13:21, 29 March 2007
- I'm betting this is just one of those things Trey and Matt hides and then sees if anybody notices the joke. Don't you get it? (Hint: Think about Bill) Maged123 20:36, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Or possibly "Ms" Clinton, which is the politically correct titular form of address for a woman, regardless of her marital status, and often sounds much like "Miss". I hardly think this is intended to be a stab at Bill. --JamesTheNumberless 09:31, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Given other references to the lack of sexual contact Hillary has had in the past "30 years," I think it's fair to say Matt and Trey were taking a stab at Bill and Hillary's convenient marriage. Jackryan 15:35, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- or maybe it's just a continued play on Clinton's "southern" persona (Miss is commonly used to refer to any woman in the southern U.S.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.111.59.22 (talk) 14:13, 5 April 2007 (UTC).

Hildog
[edit]Why is "Hildog" listed as ghetto slang? I took it as just a Secret Service codename. ScottSwan 08:22, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- it's obviously just Cartman's wannabe "CIA" allusion to Hillary... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.75.187.195 (talk) 09:34, 2 April 2007 (UTC).
- except that it wasn't Cartman who used the name. It was Clinton's staff as well as the fans holding "Hildog" signs at the rally. ScottSwan 14:17, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Goofs
[edit]Please don't add or create a new goofs section, the information is useless and doesn't add to the article. There are many goofs in every episode of every show, there's no need to point them out. XVertigox 21:29, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- I have read (sorry, can't remember where, but it isn't OR) that some goofs are placed purposely, and not goofs at all. I do think it is funny how some people watch the episode dozens of times just to get one or two goofs. The way people spend their time. (As I roam Wikipedia with no set goal or purpose...) Chrishy Man 22:43, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Absolutely right, often things that are done diliberately for comic purposes, or to aid storytelling, are wrongly reported as goofs. It's pretty pathetic. I have recently been looking at things like goofs and trivia in South Park entries, and it's appauling that such volume of poorly thought out crap gets past the filters in people's (alleged) brains and through their fingers onto Wikipedia.
- Oh wait, I've spotted a goof, that's not the real Hillary Clinton, it's a computer model!! AND I've spotted a cultural reference to Star Trek - they use a computer!! - finally, a point of trivia, in this episode Cartman wears a hat. --JamesTheNumberless 09:24, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
ATF
[edit]The alcohol, tobacco, firearms agency goes over the head of the FBI on a matter of a snuke? That doesnt make much sense. Whats the ATF doing here anyway? 24.136.121.150 09:07, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- How about - Communist Russian mercenaries sell their services on ebay? - The UK sends 300 year old warships to invade America? - They put a nuclear bomb in Hillary Clinton's vagina? - None of this strikes you as a bit unlikely?? --JamesTheNumberless 09:25, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Just add it as a goof… —84.139.64.208 16:33, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Queen
[edit]Could the death of the Queen be "retaliation" for the assasination of President Bush in the British docudrama Death Of A President? Elpaw 14:27, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
--Doesn't matter. Unless you have a legit source for this, it doesn't go in the article. If it does, I will delete it.--Ssault 15:39, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Horror Refrence
[edit]When the dude goes in to disarm Hillary, what he says before he is killed has got to refrence some creature feature, Mabey twilight zone the movie? I think that should be added to refrences when someone figures out what the refrence is. Gamecraze 10:35, 07 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, if this was an homage to some horror movie, that ought to be in the article. Is it anything specific?--124.85.205.177 (talk) 08:34, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- I believe that it was a direct reference to the gynecologist's scene on Teeth. But there, he only got his figures cut off. Taz00 (talk) 22:17, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
- well maybe, but i remember a film, theres a man crawling into something like a burrow hunting something, hes talking through a raido to the others outside. if i remember right, he says something like hes finds some blood than reach a little cave or something and see a thing sitting above him. he says that it looks at him and than hes just screaming... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.163.168.99 (talk) 05:41, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Jedah's Theme
[edit]Why was the Trivia removed? It is Jedah's opening chant which is also used during the russians talking. If you can't hear it, you clearly have bad ears. I even provided you a link with the song. Check out both, otherwise you are lying. I demand that trivia to be added again. check out the soundtrack song number 241 VS JEDAH http://gh.ffshrine.org/soundtracks/3091)—Preceding unsigned comment added by BIG (talk • contribs)
Trivia Section
[edit]Why was the Trivia section removed? And why does it stay on other episodes? IMO the moderators here are abusing their power and deleting stuff they don't understand or don't like.
Wikipedia seems to be on a quest to ban Trivia sections, and merge them into things like "References" and the main article. See WP:TRIV. It's arguable whether this is a good thing, but I'm not arguing for now.
Deleted "This article contains a trivia section" box, because it doesn't anymore. Catachresis 01:33, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
- Pop culture references: such as a list of things that it spoofs from 24 is trivia. I've re-added the tag, the problem clearly isn't fixed. RobJ1981 03:41, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
- There - I trimmed it down into a basic synopsis, without losing any major content. --Haemo 08:12, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
- Trivia sections stay on other episodes because nobody has had a chance to get rid of them yet! I'm completely removing this one pending cites;
- The episode is a parody of the hit Television show 24.
- There are many references throughout the episode of various commonly used websites, often Web 2.0 ones. These are used to track down the terrorists, although some of the websites mentioned are used simply for comedic effect such as inspecting one of the terrorist's eHarmony accounts to find an address. This is a satirical look at how many things the internet is used for in the digital age, a theme that would later be expanded on in the episode "Over Logging".
- The group of Hillary Supporters with the Dog masks and bones are a parody of the infamous Dawg Pound, a group of Rabid Fans that sit in the Bleachers at Home Cleveland Browns games.
- Trivia sections stay on other episodes because nobody has had a chance to get rid of them yet! I'm completely removing this one pending cites;

"The Queen had a great laugh"?
[edit]Without a citation, that's just some funny trolling. DELETED Catachresis 01:39, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
Banned in the UK?
[edit]Is it true that this episode was banned in the UK for its unauthorized depiction of the Queen?
- Well I've seen it before, but that might have been on the Internet, so I'm not sure. ≈ The Haunted Angel 23:14, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- The British do not ban things for "unauthorized depictions of the Queen". Witness Monty Python's Flying Circus. --Haemo 23:35, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- I was told by an American that it was banned for showing her suicide, but I was told by some Brits that it was banned simply for showing her. They cited an example of a recent multi-million pound ad campaign which showed British Pounds (and hence pictures of the Queen) which had to be pulled from the air for use of her image without authorization.
- I doubt it was banned, but I read an online article claiming some people were quite angry at how her story ended. --Do Not Talk About Feitclub (contributions) 09:28, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- The episode was highly controversial here in the UK, but it has been shown unsencored. glennb28 t • c 22:09, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
- I can confirm that it was shown uncensored on Paramout Comedy. Not sure if it was premiered on another channel though. Antisora 08:53, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
- It was shown on E4, which (iirc) is part of the Channel 4 network. Plus, I get the feeling that the government don't have dumb laws like that. We can portray who we like in cartoons. Freedom of expression and all that. ^_^ Burningmace 14:44, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

It was on yesterday and it did show her killing herself so it hasn't been banned Biggestsfgfan123ssl (talk) 15:55, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
cultural references
[edit]The "cultural references" section is just a trivia section, half the shit isn't even cultural references. 184.88.226.225 (talk) 03:57, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
