Not a huge fan of this episode although it had some great lines. It needed more boobs.

This one had potential but I thought bombed. I don't think I laughed once.

Most of the jokes you could see coming from a mile away and I thought Barney was over the top, even by Barney standards.

I missed the first 10-15 seconds, why was Ted saying BALL over and over at the beginning?

They were talking about how, if you say the same word 100 times, it starts to sound weird.

He was actually saying "bowl" because he was holding a bowl (of cereal?) at the time.

I was counting it, hoping they'd get to 100 but it stopped somewhere north of 25.

Loved the line about the worthlessness of personal information after a breakup being the equivalent of an English degree ...

She talked about that on Craig Ferguson. They showed that clip, and she said that she had forgotten how huge her chest was since she was 8 or 9 months pregnant at the time.

Loved the episode. I like how the focus has shifted off Ted, at least for a little while. Barney and Robin (especially) needed something to do and I thought the conversation about what to do with that knowledge after a break-up was an interesting observation I've never really heard before.

And I busted out laughing at Barney's boob talk (...some that were kinda big but in a bad way) and the final photo during class of Robin drinking beer on the toilet. I swear they've put one of the hottest women on TV into some really embarrassing situations for a laugh. Gets me every time.
