Trivia

• Cartman may have started this organization because his mother was on the cover of Crack Whore magazine in "Pinkeye". However, it is more likely that he just wanted to make money.
• This is one of the few times, if not the first time, that Cartman has successfully managed to convince Kyle to help him in one of his schemes. Ironically, he was able to do this by telling Kyle how much money they made in 11 days, which plays on Cartman's belief that all Jews are driven by money. Though it was quite obvious Kyle was having a hard time with it, always having to talk with Stan about his actions, trying to justify them, even sounding like Cartman on one occasion.
• The Dutch Slash song was sung in (incorrect) German, not Dutch. The melody, however, does come from a Dutch Sinterklaas song (Sinterklaas Kapoentje).
• Even though Kyle is Jewish, therefore forbidden to eat pig meat, he is still impressed by the bacon-filled menu at Denny's that even boasts bacon wrapped with pancakes.
• Kenny is not present in this episode.
• This is one of the only episode that South Park actually shows the proper appearance of a normal eye (during the crack baby advertisement), there is a green eyed baby, while most of the time, everyone has a white circle and a dot for an eye. The other time a normal eye was shown was in "Starvin' Marvin", when one of the mutant turkeys pulled Kenny's eye out. It was dark blue.
• When Cartman mentions gravy and french fries are poutines, he is slightly mistaken. A poutine is a dish with fried potatoes, gravy and cheese curds.

References to Popular Culture

• The part about Slash being able to be in more than one places at once and not being real, but rather being based off old myths is a reference to Santa Claus (or Sinterklaas).
• The first scene at Denny's is a parody of the loud club scene from The Social Network
• This episode mocks Electronic Arts for solely trying to make the biggest profit off of its customers.
• This also mocks the fact that College Athletes are not paid, despite how much money they bring in for the college.

Continuity

• The boys (except for Stan, who's birthday is in October) are all 10 years old now, as confirmed by Stan, "You guys are ten years old now..." Kyle's birthday was the day after this episode aired.
• Cartman's line "Screw you guys, I'm going home" hasn't been used since "A Very Crappy Christmas."
• In the scene where Kyle is showing Stan the Crack Babies for the first time on the internet Youtube is spelt correctly as opposed to previous episodes.
• The "Numa Numa" guy's profile is seen on the Youtube page Kyle and Stam are browsing.
