Cromulent[edit]

I once thought that the bit were Edmund explains away his nonce-words as being "perfectly cromulent" was the funniest part of this episode. However, I'm now reading online that “cromulent” appeared a decade later in The Simpsons, and never in Blackadder. I'm not sure I've even seen that episode of The Simpsons! How could I have got this word in my head from watching Blackadder, if it's not in it (I've just watched the episode to check, and didn't hear the word once)? This is just insane. Crazier still is the fact that I can find a few websites that say the same![1] Is this some sort of collective madness... mass hysteria??

I just can't explain it. — Chameleon 11:13, 17 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Historical and cultural references[edit]

I would assume that the burning dictionary is a reference to John Aubrey's story about the burning of Thomas Cooper's dictionary. It could of course be inspired by both stories. — 16:59, 12 June 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.193.68.171 (talk)
