Of course. "It's as Ann as the nose on Plain's face."

It's a thing that was in the episode that was set up like it was supposed to be a joke, but wasn't independently funny. Therefore people were trying to figure out if it was a connection to something else.

Yeah the joke is that it is the best day of his life. Not a great joke but there it is.

The party in the warehouse was pretty lame and it had an "Island" Theme. Roy said something along the lines of, "remember when we were planning the honeymoon and you wanted to go to Hawaii and I wanted to go to Mexico?....I was right."

Didn't know where else to put this, but both Joss Whedon and J.J. Abrams will be directing episodes that will air this season.

I don't think it was supposed to be a joke, I don't know why everyone thinks it was suppose to be funny, I agree with the other post that it was to go from Darryl having a great day to cut to pam crying having a horrible day

Someone finding an object like an I-pod and claiming that it was the best day of their life is most definitely a joke.
