For a guy who claims to not like gross imagery, you sure seem to like to sit and think up gross ideas of your own!!"I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!"

I won't let them misrepresent it... How could anyone misrepresent something as gross as the plots you describe?
Gross is as Gross does. Its not funny.
To: Dan(9698)
I would think they could come up with something much more creative than that. I will admit sometimes the things they do gross me out, but to only look at their lowbrow humor is to miss the much more prevalent intelligent humor they have. No one else lampoons politics and celebrities as well as they do. Sometimes it is disguised as being sophmoric, but I defy you to find any other comedy that summed up the 2004 election as well as SP's mascot election between a giant douche and a turd sandwich.

SP's mascot election between a giant douche and a turd sandwich. Here I thought my skit on recycling was original.
They actually did it. (oh well, I missed that episode I guess.)
You have to admit it was right in line with what they think is funny though.
To: HairOfTheDog
Let me admit something. I'm not sure Matt and Trey, who wrote it, nor most non-Catholics in this country, know when or what the "Feast of the Immaculate Conception" is. Maybe they do, but I don't. It might just be lucky chance that it aired then. Whew! that's a relief. I thought it was just me.

I laughed out loud at that part. And I'm a Catholic who was rooting for Ratzinger the entire election period.
Seriously, a message to my fellow Catholics: stop freaking out about this and worry about something that matters, like the Da Vinci Code.
To: Oztrich Boy
Er... I thought that they converted to Catholicism.
To: Conservative til I die
My guess it's the usual: Catholics, liberals, Muslims, and others that are approved targets. Jews, President Bush, the GOP, the handicapped, all no-nos. No, they are ALL equally worth being ridiculed.

I suppose you would also think it was funny to have a woman who was menstrating change her tampon in a closeup scene as part of a skit. Why is something that is gross considered to be funny? If it was done using one dimensional paper cutouts and there was a story behind it, yes there is a good chance it would be funny.

You don't get it? Why not have the statue bleeding from its eyes?

You don't get it? Why not have the statue bleeding from its eyes? No, you don't get it. It is obvious if you watched the episode. Stan's dads thought he won his battle with alcoholism because of the miracle. If the statue was bleeding from it's eyes, this would in fact be true. Since it was bleeding from it's vagina, there was no miracle since women bleed from their vagina all the time. Obviously, Stan's dad quit drinking because his own will power. That was the whole point.
If you are going to attack the show, at least know what you are talking about.

I agree with you more than 100%, if that's possible. I should ping the list, but I just don't want to enable more people to read about the disgusting show.
Notice how the word "irreverence" is practically - well, holy?
Anything reminiscent of holiness, virtue, reverence - is ridiculed and scorned. Even common human decency and politeness is becoming outre behavior. Cool means nasty, mean, vile, impudent, and cruel.
We live in a world gone mad, in many respects.
To: little jeremiah
The entire episode is about the virtue of self-discipline.

The image is quite diabolical, somewhat like the defaced images of the Virgin's statues in the Exorcist. Maybe you should reflect on the reason why the English find the term "bloody" so offensive, since it is a normal thing for women to bleed during their periods.

Maybe it boils down to the simple fact that the English, or many of them, consider the term offensive, so that when around them one should avoid the term to avoid trouble. Those who likie the "South Park" people who make their living by throwing bricks through other people's windowns should not be surprised when people throw the bricks back at them.

You still didn't explain what is evil about menstruation. My GF does it every month and I am a happy camper when I find out.
