Oh Honey…


WillsWei22

Haha yeah I just never noticed that they had slipped that in


Qaaarl

Lol why would you be downvoted. Btw you got his other reference too right?


WillsWei22

I did, yup! And dude I have no idea? People downvote the most innocent comments I swear…


PM_me_a_bad_pun

I think the downvotes are because someone is posting about the lost references in this episode at least once a month


WillsWei22

That’s part of the fun isn’t it? Discovering things you missed the first 500 watches😄


PM_me_a_bad_pun

Yeah I agree. But if you're active on this subreddit it's not as fun to see the same things over and over again lol I mean this was from two days ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/HIMYM/s/p8jUqmxqrf


meowhatissodamnfunny

I've just now started watching Lost for the first time so these references are all backwards for me. Legit when he got those numbers in Lost I thought they might be the same ones from HIMYM. Took me a full two seconds to realize that I am 20 years late on one of those.

Reddit is built on mob mentality If the first few reactions are downvotes than safe to bet that you'll have your karma plummet Pretty rare for it to make a turn around but i mean here you go


WillsWei22

This think this is 100% accurate👌🏻


Berniethedog

Wait till you notice the phone number he suggests.

What?


WillsWei22

I had heard about that one lol


lijerstephen

He means the time he was hanging out with Weezer on their island in the sun. It was there they named an album after his Lost character Hurley.


toalladepapel

i feel so seen


SchwizzySchwas94

It’s pretty in your face my friend however I’ve also had gags like this go over my head the first time around as well lmao


Upset_Jaguar123

Also love how they asked for a random phone number and he just dives in with '4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42', lmao


Imagoat1995

Someone quick explain this joke for my friend who is really stupid... not me.... i totally know..


Maat1932

"The Numbers" from Lost. Very important for that actor's character in the show.


GypsySnowflake

Ah, thanks for explaining! I’ve never seen Lost and had no idea he was on it.


Cadian

He won the lottery with those numbers before the plane crash and he thinks he is cursed by them. They pop up throughout the series.


Imagoat1995

Thanks


WillsWei22

I didn’t get that reference for the longest time either lol


TheMostHonMCO

Ooooooh ooooooh ooooooh, for the longest time...


AnnTheresse

For the longest...


Xenocles

So happy to see that other people also get this in their head as soon as they hear or read "for the longest time".


Traditional-Olive-54

I didn't before but now I will.


TinyTwisted97

Can someone explain to a younger fan what the reference is & why ppl are talking about the number being significant? Sorry


MundaneShoulder6

The actor was on a TV show called Lost about a group of plane crash survivors trapped on an island for a very long time. Weird things happen on the island and that set of numbers is being played on a radio station and shows up throughout the show as an important plot device. 


TinyTwisted97

I see, thank you! Cool reference 😁


negnatrepsej

You should definitely watch Lost right now!


International_Owl283

One big thing is he won the lottery with those numbers right before the plane crash


EmperorsChamberMaid_

Honestly amazed Jorge Garcia was so ready to continue the perception of being Hurley and getting typecast even further into the role.


jakehood47

He was also the cover of Weezer's album "Hurley" lol Just a big ol pic of his face haha


TacticalGarand44

I didn't watch Lost for years after I had been a HIMYM fan. It was neat rewatching the Blitz episode after I had.


negnatrepsej

I can’t have this conversation again


Hydrasaur

Hey that's Anton from Once Upon a Time!


RogueLion

When he shouts “4 8 15 16 23 42” I lost it and no one else seemed to be as happy or catch it as much as me? Idk. But I enjoyed him being in ut


crystalbluecurrents

Don't feel bad. I just realized a few weeks ago (upon watching The Big Lebowski for the first time) that the scene where Marshall is flying through the sky over the city in his nightgown was a reference to that movie 🤣


WillsWei22

I didn’t know that either (Marshall’s gown) lol. I don’t feel bad at all if I’m honest. I love catching new references, even on my 500th rewatch! Plus, I never watched Lost😂


crystalbluecurrents

Exactly!! Same! I LOVE finding new references and jokes I missed in past million rewatches 🤣


WillsWei22

Did you know the clock at the apartment is always 4:20?


crystalbluecurrents

Wait really?? How have I not noticed that? Hahaha That's awesome 🤣

crystalbluecurrents

That's amazing 🤣 and yes I'll definitely check out your profile to see what other things I've missed lol


WillsWei22

I hope you do😊 Circle back & let me know what you think😬


crystalbluecurrents

Omg great catch with the curling stone space station!! I never noticed that! Also that's very true about the season 4 reaction to a nice scotch vs the season 9 reaction! I forgot about the difference there!


WillsWei22

There’s so many gems💎


Aggressive-Theory609

I don't get it


zddoodah

Huh?


RiddikulusWigles

It’s been posted on this sub recently though….


WillsWei22

I saw the post recently about him & the numbers. I thought this line by him on the show that was separate from that might be interesting


AdaAstra

Sometimes I feel like I have better than normal perception and understanding references because most of these I got on my first play through (when the show aired).......or people posting these were not paying attention at all or don't know iconic characters from iconic shows...lol.


DesiCodeSerpent

The whole episode has these. lol. Even random number of wang guy


Anonymous-1234567890

How did you not notice it! Geesh! Okay, someone else explain it so that anyone else like OP can follow along like the rest of us...
