Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.

No, we're not going to tell you what the word in the title of this episode means. But it is revealed within. Other things revealed in this episode: weird injuries from benign objects that befell men as they get older, what if they held an Oscars® and nobody cared, Hollywood producer Scott Rudin is revealed to be a bad boss even though they made a movie about it 30 years ago, we defend iconic Simpsons character Apu from that sap Hank Azaria who voices him, the now obligatory joke designed to offend at least someone, and we propose re-making the last season of Game of Thrones. Because why not?

@JohnPodhoretz The most common steps and curbs are the most frequent sources of various injuries. I have always lived in suburbia, generally with individual garages, generally attached to the house. I can't tell you how many people I've known who have become injured on the steps between the garage and the house. I was so happy that our new house has no steps between the garage and the house.
@RobLong and John, We used to live on the Newport Beach / Costa Mesa border, and our children's public elementary school drew mostly from the Newport Beach (i.e., wealthier) side of the border. When seeing family groups it was often not clear to us whether the 60+ year old man was the grandfather, or the father with the much younger trophy wife.

The incident JPod describes from "World According to Garp" would not be castration.

Musicians used "little girl" pretty much regardless of the actual age of the person.

Did the guys go through a time portal? I remember reading about Hank Azaria apologizing for Apu - and saying he wouldn't do it any more - at least a couple years ago.
