Yeah, I have a bad feeling this might be a polarizing episode, or as Trey said in the S12 commentaries, "Either you're on the train, or your not", like Britney's New Look. One of people's main complaints from last season is that the show seemed to be trying to make memes out of every episode through running gags, i.e. "How do I reach these keeds?", "I'm HIV positive", "I'm so startled!", "Never shoot a guy in the dick!", "Boom baby!", "I'm not your friend, buddy!" (though that last one actually did catch on)

The current event episodes often seem like the ones to do it, so hopefully not...
