What are the most observant and smartified entries you saw in the "Fun Facts" sections on the Wiki?

One for me, the fact that someone noticed that Strong Bad's opening lines in "Japanese Cartoon" were a haiku.

I would have never
seen that in a hundred years.
No, nor a thousand.

It's amazing to me what some people can find (or notice). With so many more viewers than in 2000, I can see why Matt and Mike would pay more attention when animating than they used to. But then again, I'm sure they both have improved as animators since their first Flash cartoon.

To get back to your proposed question, I've seen many observant finds in the "fun facts" section. I can't remember many of them off the top of my head, but ones that come to mind involve "segmented eyes" (from animal) and "When Strong Bad does his flips, his boots are red, not black" (from lady...ing). I'll post more when I think of them.

Eh, I'm not sure that thread is quite the same thing as this one. It's supposed to be the most clever and intriguing observations that other people have noticed about toons on the Wiki, not the subtle details that you're specifically entertained by.

I should make a long overdue extensive visit back to the Wiki again, and maybe I'll post my own later.

Well, I can't say which one is the most observant, because many of them are. I'm surprised of how you people come up with these. I see funfacts that make me think 10 minutes before I realize "Hey, they're right!"

I agree with WHF. The haiku one is definitely one that I would have never found out. And now that I do know it, I use it as an example. :)

Yeah, stop playing the ABP'D card, guys. I see it more and more for threads that have a right to live. Thank you, and please try to stay on-topic.

The 'Q' easter egg in personal favorites. Hands down.

I really don't know, there've been too many to count. Out of the ones I can remember I'd say the funfact that disappeared on time capsule about homestar lifting the box the lid and the wig at the same time.
