South Park -- "Butterballs" -- 4/11/2012

Ho... ly... shit.

This was the funniest episode in a long time and an all-time classic, IMO.

Great episode, funny how every bully was leaning casually against the sink.

Not sure how I feel about watching a ten year old masturbating though.

I had to watch the episode again. I think one of the funniest parts was with the "narc puck." That was classic.

Amazing. I'm so surprised that everyone agrees on this. I laughed nearly constantly!

Good episode, no better or worse than the last few - maybe a touch funnier.

thought it was great. Is the 'San Diego Jackin' It' thing based on something or was that just a South Parkian idea?

Jason Russell, the guy who made that Kony 2012 viral video was arrested last month on the streets of San Diego in his underwear pounding the pavement with his fists and rambling incoherently. Some reports said he was nude and masturbating on the streets.

I don't like being bullied into telling me what else I "need" to do.

Great episode. I like how they played on the bullying meme, called out the Weinstein Company on their BS "Bully" campaign, and threw in the hilarious Kony reference at the end. Even if you didn't get the Kony reference it was still a fun song. Plus more Butters is always good.

Only minus for me was the main reoccurring bathroom bit. Maybe I missed something, but it didn't resonate with me or feel like it was building on itself. It seemed to rely on repetition to be funny. I know it had the potential to be better, for example Harvey Weinstein, who bought "Bully", is himself well known for being an overbearing ass at times. I just didn't see them connecting the dots to real life.

Pretty sure he was naked:

My stupid timer ended the show prematurely, so I missed the alleged child masturbating scene. Was it like the time Butter's had his cock in Cartman's mouth?

He was just dancing nude. Nothing creepy

Of course I loved it, but I thought it was just my natural bias. I need to get that song as a ring tone.
