Princeton Fallacy[edit]

When it comes to the Ivy League, some people just think of Harvard, Yale, and Princeton, also known as "HYP," pronounced "hype." However, there are five other schools. In this cartoon, they show a young Obama wearing a shirt with a P on it. I think it's supposed to represent Princeton, but he got his undergraduate degree from Columbia University, not Princeton. Just because his wife Michelle Obama did her undergraduate at Princeton does not mean he did. I hate how this episode erases "non-HYP" Ivies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chumley41 (talkcontribs) 23:38, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This episode points to something very curious in the fictional Futurama universe Adenoviridae. Zoiberg for some illogical reason (lacking human DNA) also catches the human virus (unless Zoiberg added some human organs inside himself to the redundant grab-bag of undigested alien organs he already contains and those organs are causing Zoiberg's illness). Morbo, the television host-monster also catches the adenovirus (although it could also be an Influenza variant). In order for Morbo to catch a human virus, he would require human DNA and could just be a deliberately DNA-modded reshaped human pretending to be a alien monster along with his DNA-reshaped fake-monster wife. The guinea pig can indeed catch a variant of the adenovirus, known as the guinea pig adenovirus (GPAdV). Note that adenoviridae have documented cross-species transmission vectors.
