[@johnrogstad1278]

Wow. No one has remarked on the fact that Scott Thompson literally coined "sexting" in this obscure game show episode of over a decade ago. How often do we get to see the routine slang of today in the freshness of its infancy? Not hardly more than once every fortnight, I'd wager. Also, Norm outshown everyone as always.

[@stevepeterson5943]

Indeed, that was truly historic! Right there with norm"s coinage "fak noozs". (I can't say it. . .)

Sadly, apparently, the word "sexting" was coined three years before this show was filmed. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexting However, has anyone asked Scott Thompson if he thinks he made the word up? Someone should.

Looking for a comment I thought was here earlier, regarding Norm looking like a still shot of him was digitally added to the screen after his Hillary joke. It is SUPER noticeable in the Wink Martindale upload of that episode - a little eerie-looking, even - every time they cut to the full-panel shot. I'm curious about what happened, and whether he was ushered off stage for a while or something until after the break.
