Follies of the Madmen #211
Yes, aliens probably have never had a cup of cocoa until they visit Earth; and if individuals of their kind live for hundreds of years, that would indeed be a very long time to go without cocoa.
But you know what? Aliens, cocoa...? Forget it! I still don't get the connection, no matter how hard I try.

Rocky & Bullwinkle: “Sex on Planet X”
[Click to enlarge]
I've been reliving my youthful TV watching by streaming episodes of Rocky & Bullwinkle on Netflix. I certainly catch a lot more of the jokes than I did when I was in elementary school.
And in the screen shot above, you'll see a risque easter egg I encountered in Episode 5.
Anyone else have similar favorite moments from the media?
