Trivia

• Cartman says Kyle has to kiss his "Black ass" while he is white. This probably means he quoted something he heard on TV not knowing what it meant exactly.
• After telling Cartman several times not to, Kyle himself calls his own mother a bitch.
• This is the second time Cartman makes someone or something a cannibal, feeding a baby cow beef jerky. The first time was when he tricked an unknowing Scott Tenorman into eating his own parents, whom Cartman had made into chili, in "Scott Tenorman Must Die". This could also be a reference to the "Bakin' Bacon with Macon" intros that Matt and Trey did in the 2nd season DVDs.
• The negotiator in the episode first states that his name is Glen, however while speaking to the boys on the phone he states that his name is Mike.

Disease

• Vaginitis is a real illness, although unrelated to the one portrayed in this episode.
• The illness portrayed is based on Pellagra, which is caused by a deficiency of niacin (B₃ ). It is most common in people who do not eat red meat.

Censorship

• In the original Comedy Central and Comedy Network version, the doctor says that if Stan wasn’t treated sooner for his vaginitis, he would have turned into “a giant pussy.” Syndicated reruns redub this with “giant vagina” (though his lips still read "pussy").

Cultural References

• Randy Marsh compares the boys to "little John Walkers." This is meant as a reference to John Walker Lindh, an American who fought for the Taliban.
• Michael Dorn is famous for playing Worf on Star Trek: The Next Generation. He is portrayed in this episode wearing a sweatshirt which bears the logo of Pasadena City College, his real-life alma mater. After this episode aired, Dorn revealed that he is a fan of South Park, and would've provided his voice for the episode had he been asked.

Hidden Visitor(s)
