    In reply to OS X's Spinning Beach Ball Makes Family Guy Cameo
    It's hard to tell in the context of 15 second clip, but did that have anything to do with the scene, or was it another one of their random "HEY LOOK WE'RE FUNNY" moments?

    Sadly, that was the first funny, non-racist moment that that show has had in many episodes. That and a wonderful tirade about Brian.

    There's only so many winking racist remarks a guy can make before people begin to wonder if the wink isn't just a nervous tic.

    @OMG! Ponies!:
    I think the beachball clip was a thinly veiled homophobic jab, because it resembles a rainbow and was portrayed with irony, depicted as someone lackadaisical and undecided and superfluous.

    @n8equalsd: Just the fact that it's actually Patrick Stewart doing the voice of the CIA Director is funny as it is.
    Stan's schemes and his solutions to various problems are so bizarre that they are hilarious.

    I must say that I am partial to the original beach ball, because it always looked like it was spinning more than the current one is.

    @Tito151: That's also why they added the "throbber" animation to the progress bar. Even when it's not moving, it looks like it is.

    Sadly, I'm not sure if I've already passed out at a BestBuy or not. Thinking back on a long career of blacking out and taking lil' drinkie naps here and there, I can remember an intoxicated trip to BestBuy, doing my best Hunter S Thompson, but I don't remember leaving. I know I left eventually, because I'm not there now. I'm somewhere else. I bet I owe them $15. Stupid amends. #bestbuy

    So why exactly would you go to an electronics store in the middle of the night, necessitating their being open 24 hours a day? I don't recall the last time I had an uncontrollable urge to buy a TV at 3:00 in the morning. I guess you can buy games and movies at Best Buy, but that doesn't seem like it's the whole story. #bestbuy
