October 28[edit]
friends tv show[edit]
In friends tv show, in season 4 episode The One with the Jellyfish [4.01],After argument between Ross and Rachel, Rachel says to Ross And, hey, just so you know — it's not that common, it doesn't happen to every guy, and it is a big deal!.What that means? --27.107.14.128 (talk) 10:51, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- I've not seen the show in question, but those three clauses seem to be inversions (no doubt humorous in context) of the standard statements women make to men experiencing erectile dysfunction. (It's common. It happens to every guy. It's no big deal.) Deor (talk) 11:42, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- At the other end of the spectrum, it could also refer to premature ejaculation. Either way, the saying is a cliché for what women say when a man's genitals betray him at the moment of coitus, either by not working at all, or working a bit too early. Which of the two situations Ross suffered from is left vague in that episode, but its obvious Rachel is trying to emasculate Ross by calling into question his sexual adequacy. --Jayron32 13:04, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- Here's more of the argument. Rachel doesn't spell it out, but I think erectile dysfunction is a more likely explanation. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:04, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Max Headroom - UK version.[edit]
I'm trying to find the title and artist of a specific piece of music which accompanied a video shown on The Max Headroom Show in the UK! This was the spin-off series which also showed clips of cartoons like Beavis & Butthead etc.! The video was about a journey over vast plains in gyrocopter's or microlight's and I think the music is soft-rock from either the 70's or 80's? PLEASE HELP - This has been a life-long search for me without success. Kindest regards and many thanks - Mike Hague. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.217.182.20 (talk) 15:33, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
