- Is there a real drug that makes you black out while having this much fun for eight or nine hours straight: no, that is not how being roofied works, it knocks you out rather than keeping you up; the movie says Rufalin (as transcribed) rather than rehypnol (as transcribed), perhaps because they could not name it, an ecstasy version of a blackout drug.
- Does Alan die when Tyson hits him: the hosts cannot believe he gets up, since Iron Mike even now could put somebody in the hospital; a generation has had triple-digit conversations about whether you could take a punch from Mike Tyson, which the movie captures perfectly, and his getting up with the worst shiner in history is paired with 'Ollie getting up from Frasier' (as transcribed) as the two greatest get-ups.
- Should The Hangover 2 have been a blackjack card-counting movie rather than going to Thailand; the questioner is proud of it and the group imagines the casinos chasing them.
- The room damage question was originally filed under unanswerable questions and handled during nitpicks instead.
