How I Met Your Mother "Spoiler Alert" - OAD 11/12
(Shattering Glass)
Man, do I know exactly what they're talking about. About a year or so ago, my friends and I all pointed out that each of us use a particular word or phrase a lot (mine was "Yeah, really"). And once it's pointed out, you're SO conscious of it ...

I sat next to someone like Ted's date on a flight last week. Thankfully she fell asleep at one point.

As soon as Ted met Kathy on the street during the final scene, I knew Ted was going to spoil it for the new boyfriend. However, having it silent but captioned was brilliant.

No matter how annoying she is, that's no reason to not at least sleep with her once.
Besides, there's a very specific cure, along those lines, for someone who talks too much or has an annoying voice.

I adored this episode...to me it was the funniest we have had all season.
I had to pause and laugh at Marshall's shopping list - and the line about the witch building a house was fantastic.
I also loved that Marshall makes up stupid little songs. Probably because I do it too.

Great first post. 
The one annoyance that really got me was Lilly's. My mom and my niece chew and crunch really loudly and it drives me batty. I have to have the tv one when I eat so I don't have to hear anyone else eating. When Lilly was chewing on the cereal I had to "literally" turn the volume down!
Before the gang came out with the dat's annoyance I thought they were going to show her farting when Ted went to the bathroom.

It will be hard for them to top this episode, probably one of the shows best ever.

While the last bit at the end with meeting the old girlfriend was funny I'd have like to scene something along the lines of Marshall leaving the Slap Bet count down timer on Barnie's laptop.
Marshall: Barney, check your laptop.
Barney: Oh, did you find another video of a dog pooping on a baby?
Marshall: No...better.
Barney: Nooooooooooo!

As was I. If it's not the funniest episode, this certainly has to rank near the top. I was laughing constantly.

My wife, since she's taken the bar exam, felt the need to point out that Marshall's exam scene was totally unrealistic. 
Great episode.

So true.
I "dated" a girl for a month who ended every friggin' sentence with "You know what I mean?". God she was annoying but oh so hot. It got to the point where I just couldn't take it anymore, despite the cure.

I don't want to really think about the math involved in the countdown, but do you think that it is a countdown to the start of the show or the actual slap during the show?

Can't be. As I post this at 9:21 AM EST. The clock is 5 days 10 hours and 4 minutes. That would make the slap take place Monday at 7:25 PM EST. Something more than 25 minutes before it airs.

As one who only started watching this show toward the end of last season, can some of you die hard fans fill me in on a couple of things:
1. What is this "slap bet?"
2. If Robin and Ted only dated for a year, and just broke up at the beginning of this season, was Robin on the show for the first season or was there a different girl that was Ted's girlfriend during that season? If Robin was on, what was her reason for being in the "group?"
3. If Future Ted keeps calling her "Aunt Robin," who is she married to for her to be an aunt? Or is that just the pet name they have for her as a friend of the family?

Strange. Right now at 8:11 AM pacfic time the counter says:
5 Days 11 Hours 15 minutes 11 Seconds

people will have better answers than me since I'm not good with details...
1. Marshall and Barney made a bet (forget what)...loser gets slapped as hard as possible 5 times...Marshall won and now has free slaps at any time or any place...he's using them slowly
2. yes, Robin was around all the time...she and Ted had one date (in flashbacks, I think) where Ted pretty much proposed at the end of the date...that made Robin run for the hills...she joined the gang and they finally dated again last season.
3. she's aunt Robin as in a real good friend of the family...maybe even Godmother to one of the kids...no indication about marriage either way...so we clearly knew a long time ago that she is NOT the mother of the kids...

That appears to be the same 7:25 p.m. on Monday for the West Coast as it is for the East Coast.
For me, in the Mountain Time Zone, it says 5:10:11:xx, which would also be 7:25 p.m. on Monday, but for me, that's right as the show is ending, since it airs from 7-7:30 here. My guess is that's what they were going for, and just did the calculations wrong for the coasts since they air an hour later there.

Wasn't the bet about whether the Robin Sparkles video was pr0n or not?
Barney had a choice of taking 10 slaps right then, or 5 surprise slaps at any future time with no warning. He chose the surprise slaps.

Yes, you are correct.
The whole saga began when Robin refused to go to the mall, and it became clear that she had some secret in her life. Barney said that Robin's secret was that she had done porn before, and Marshall was trying to prove Robin's story that she had a secret husband. Marshall couldn't, and Barney won the slap bet, and collected immediately.
Well, Barney found a video that he believed to be a porn starring Robin. What it actually turned out to be was a video made by Canadian teen sensation "Robin Sparkles" entitled "Let's Go to the Mall."
Since Barney had not in fact won the slap bet, slap bet commissioner Lily decreed that Marshall could slap Barney 10 times immediately, or have 5 slaps to use whenever in the future. Barney chose the 5 slaps, and two have been used to date.
