Line 373:
'''Bullwinkle:''' Sure. "A bomb" is what some people call our show!
'''Rocky:''' (''miffed'') I didn't think that was very funny.
'''Bullwinkle:''' (''looking to camera'') Neither did ''they,'' apparently.
* In one scene from ''[[Amphibia (TV series)|Amphibia]]'' (a cartoon produced by [[Disney]]) Polly goes into a store in the mall where kids can construct their own stuffed animals. After perusing the available pieces, she finds a nose-mouth piece that resembles that of Mickey Mouse. "Eh, no thanks," she says and tosses it aside.
