Magic Eight Ball: Signs point to yes.
Yeah, parentheses can remind me of the weirdest stuff at times. Anyway, you wouldn't care to elaborate, Muddy? |

That or it's just one of my fiving rules: If I can't make it funny, throw in a reference to something else so that it seems clever. |
I guess that my brand of humor would dictate that a Princess Bride setup line reference requires a Princess Bride punchline reference:
Link: So, it is down to you, and it is down to me. Ganon: It would appear so. You wanna just skip the battle of wits and cut straight to the epic battle sequence? Link: Works for me. And by the way, I DO intend to cut right to it. Ganon: GAK! Hehe. |
I've been re-reading the ENT fivers, and am ashamed to say I only just caught on to this reference in Five Minute "Twilight":

Awesome! I didn't think that one would ever be noticed. (For the uninitiated, it's a reference to <a href="http://www.froup.com/tr/tr.pl?48">this</a> classic Orpuddex strip. Man, I love that guy. <a href="http://www.froup.com/tr/tr.pl?228">Here's another one</a>.)
Off the top of my head, I can't think of any other references I've made in actual content. But I did once use "Ovinoculatron" as an Easter egg code word. |

Given Zeke's penchant for wordplay, I'd be surprised if it wasn't.

I just got this. And feel like a total idiot. |
Do you mean how it's all a riff on Mayweather's speech at the end of "Terra Nova"? Don't kick yourself about that -- it wasn't a great episode. I remember ENT S1 with an unusual level of detail because I fell in love with the show at first sight; I ate it up, even the weaker stories, because the characters and dialogue were so good. "Terra Nova" isn't particularly memorable on its own merits, and I only used it here for its title.
Oh, and you're right about "capricious". |
