Talk:Teen Girl Squad Issue 12
From Homestar Runner Wiki
I started working on a TGS Issue 12 page, but I didn't get very far. Since the page appears to be under construction, I'll just put my work so far on the Discussion Page in case it's of any use to anyone. (Sorry if this is the wrong thing to do; I'm not a frequent editor.) I also uploaded a few screenshots that can be used in the TGS12 article.

STUFF
I don't know how to start a STUFF page, but if someones wants to do that, I'd like to argue the "Gag me with a spoon refers to bulimia" statement. I suppose it does technically, but in this case, I'm sure the reference is more that it is a classic mid-90's Valley Girl phrase. --racerx_is_alive 16:32, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
It's actually an 80s valley girl phrase, which makes it even more fitting for the era of Mindy's reign.
- I agree — I think the phrase means something like "that's so pathetic I'm going to puke", but I don't think it necessarily refers to bulimia, even in this instance. I see it's already been removed, so if someone strongly believes it should stay, then they can STUFF it.

- I was the one who removed it (before signing up an account). I didn't see there was a discussion here, but it's gratifying to see that everyone here agrees with me on the issue. I just found it a stretch. Bulimics really aren't known to use spoons, and the phrase says nothing about vomiting, just gagging. So as someone who grew up in that era, I found the assertion ridiculous - Boffo97 16:57, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
