What birds?

I don't think the vultures count as The Birds, and I didn't notice any other birds in this 'toon. Did I miss something? --Jay (Gobble) 06:32, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

There's one in the background of Mr. Pitter's title card, just before the vultures land. --phlip ^T_C 07:16, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I saw that the last time through - but aren't those just the vultures from a distance? Oh, well, call them "The Birds" if you want. --Jay (Gobble) 07:17, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I agree; they are the vultures from a distance, and they don't count as The Birds.--Nucleartonga 12:25, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I just discovered, the "fact" that this is the first time they don't die is false anyway. They survived at the end of TGS2 --phlip ^T_C 14:46, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Ummm...

Why were no back and again buttons?

Well, TBC either forgot, or.... Forgot.--DumDe

They might go back and add some. --StarWarsMonkey :-)

HAY!

why did ja deleate da fun fact of mine? --djm1791 13:45, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

hello Mr. 209.104.139.221 i asked u a question! --djm1791 13:48, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

(1) Being rude and angry isn't going to help you. (2) 3 minutes is hardly long enough to wait before demanding a response. Think more along the line of days, possibly longer since it is an anonymous user and thus less likely to return often. (3) If by "da fun fact of mine" you mean "This is the first time we see Tompkins as a teenager.", I'm guessing it was because it is not particularly interesting. I know I'd vote against it if it went to STUFF. Also not necessarily true, depending on his age in TGS8 (which isn't obvious). --phlip ^T_C 14:26, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Your, fact was deleted because this isn't the first time we see tompkins as a teenager, the first time was in Tgs 8.

Byrds reference

I'm not even going to try and STUFF this, because it's complete speculation and could easily be a coincidence, but I still think it's cool: On the Best Friends Squad intro, it looks like Cheerleader has been replaced by a unicorn, much like the group The Byrds were rumored to have intentionally replaced the recently-fired David Crosby with a horse on the cover of their 1968 album The Notorious Byrd Brothers. Just throwin' that out there. — It's dot com 18:08, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Interesting theory! However, I think the unicorn, rainbow and flowers are just generic frilly, girly things. -- tomstiff 20:45, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

What's Her Face

The girls of Teen Girl Squad have been presented as 8th graders almost since the outset. To discover that What's Her Face is possibly 3 or 4 or 5 years *older* than the others is interesting and notable. -- tomstiff 20:59, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)

This is also noted in Talk: What's Her Face. -- Kiwi 20:35, 27 Jun 2005

Mr. Pitters

Why does he have his own article? He has only appeared in ONE issue of TGS, so if he has his own article, shouldn't the Port-A-John, the vultures, and all the others have their own articles too? No. So shouldn't he be part of the minor TGS characters page? -- Marshmallow Roast 09:09, 21 Jun 2005

Well he doesn't only appere once or twise he's tru the hole comic, unlike the others --djm1791 02:34, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I agree, he is more of a guest star like Tomkins. -- The Real Zajac 20:13, 21 Jun 2005 (PDT)

Sci-fi Greg

I liked Sci-Fi Greg.He reminds me of my dad,who's addicted to Sci-fi and my dad's name is actually Greg.i just thought that was a really weird coincidence.Ookelaylay 20:14, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
