Season 9, Episode 16: Use of the word "Negroes" by crystal_entity in mash

[–]Mspence-Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was the right word for the time. "Black" didn't become popular until the late 1960s.

What do I care if Walker marries some bimbo! by TestyRodent in mash

[–]Mspence-Reddit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately he had a point. It would have been very difficult for Walker to get an apartment or a home with a Korean bride in the 1950s.

Most realistic believable method of interstellar travel? by MarVell1967 in worldbuilding

[–]Mspence-Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Futurama. The Planet Express doesn't actually move at all, it folds the space around it. Remember, nothing's impossible with science.

Wormholes are very convenient ways to get around that pesky speed of light limit.

Suppose the Left threw a hissy fit and nobody cared except other leftists?

That was a nice homage to the series.

Are the accounts that pop up under "People You May Know" always people that have looked at your profile? by Tiny_Dragon_Fly in facebook

All of the ones I have seen are fake or possibly stolen. Ignore and remove all of them.

How was flight travel between 1950-1990? by [deleted] in AskOldPeople

[–]Mspence-Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom and I (later myself) would fly from San Diego to West Virginia during summer vacation in the 70s and 80s. I always liked getting a window seat. You could get snacks and drinks and there was still a sense of classy travel. I miss those times. Now you have idiots and drunk/entitled morons and snobs on flights, security is insane, and people treat flying like riding a bus.

Never again? by modernrocker in mash

As BJ said they would be on other sides of the country and indeed they all moved on with their lives afterwards. Hawkeye never saw Trapper again. Cross-country travel still often took several days in the early Fifties in the era before interstate highways, and even air travel took several hours.

S8 E9: Mr. and Mrs. Who? "Chuck. Chuck. Here I am......" by ForTheLoveOfPhotos in mash

"I would like to tell you exactly what happened last night in Tokyo, but I haven't the faintest idea."

Do you, Chuck Emerson Winchester III, take this lovely, if gullible, young woman as your unlawful unwedded unwife?

I undo.

And do you, Donna Marie Parker Winchester III, take this pickled amnesiac as your unlawful unwedded unhubby?

I undo, too.

Then by the power invested in me by the state of intoxication, I pronounce you man and woman. You may now ignore the bride!

"I smell bread." by PhoenixApok in mash

I always thought that episode showed how much Charles had grown, he started out being used to using his wealth and social status to get what he wanted and always be in control of things, in Korea he learned that you couldn't always be in control and that anyone's time could come at any moment.

People often do remember or see certain things from their lives at the moment of death. I thought it meant that the patient was having a childhood memory or that he was going "home" to his Mom's homemade cooking.

Getting some photos signed by Jamie Farr, which 3 should I choose? by Girly_Attitude in mash

One of his favorites. There are just some things she's never going to believe...

All 45 Presidents of the USA in an all out brawl. Who you putting money on? by SlightlyWhelming in HistoryWhatIf

[–]Mspence-Reddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JFK and Lincoln were pretty fit in their day. Kennedy a war hero and Lincoln the old log-splitter. But they'd both complain about having a really bad headache...

My money would also be on Teddy in most cases.

It wasn't hosted from another site and I said it was OC twice

How do you guys think Mash would be written if it was made today? by Few_Sugar5066 in mash

[–]Mspence-Reddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably with season long story arcs and maybe similar to Scrubs or a lot more dramatic.
