"Mars" is also a chocolate bar found on Earth. These are highly concentrated sources of carbohydrates, which are of vital importance to many carbon based life forms. Mars bars are slightly rippled with a flat underside. They are sometimes used in English courtship rituals in which the female performs various allegorical oral acts with the chocolate bar, which is donated by the male as part payment for this spectacle.

It's a South Park reference. I didn't get it then, either.

You guys, this is serial. Forecasting climate change is much too important to entrust it to climatologists. I'm glad to see the Brits are taking the right step by hiring former Vice Presidents to advise them on the matter.

I thought he may be trying to tell us he is totally sericeous - but I can't imagine why.

The title, "ManBearPig", was intended as an aid to the uninformed to google.

I saw the episode and got "ManBearPig". It was his use of the word "serial" in place of "serious" that escapes me.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ManBearPig

Al Gore uses the word “serial” in place of “serious(ly)” in the episode. This is in reference to his gaffe on The Oprah Winfrey Show when he was asked for his favorite cereal and his answer was “Oprah”, mistaking the word “cereal” for “serial”. [1]

I wouldn't've caught the reference either. How many guys even watch Oprah?
