2024.05.02 17:25 boopboopadoopity The Ultimate Reference/Context Guide to Bye Bye Birdie (Part 1)
This is the end of Almaelou Music Corporation!Almaelou may very well be a parody of Aldon Music, which would fit due to its major success being in the late 50s, and it's influence in music written for teen girls at the time.
Rosie: A five-dollar raise in 1954 and a bottle of Arpege last Christmas.Arpege is a perfume that was released in 1927 and remained the best-selling perfume of well-loved fashion line Levine for decades. (Source) Albert is quoting a commercial tagline tied to the perfume that was very well-known at the time. It continued to be used in commercials for many years. (Commercial example). It was possible to see 1/2 oz bottles at the time (Source), but Albert gave her a laughably small amount at 1/16 of an ounce. You can still buy this perfume today!
Rosie: My last raise was four years ago and you got me that jewelry from Kay Jewelers onceMusic Business Bum Vs. English Teacher
Albert: "Every Kiss Begins with Kay", Rosie. Rosie: Not when that "Kay" is a .25 karat discontinued friendship ring!
"When you wrote Conrad's last hit 'Ugga Bugga Boo' then I knew this was it/You were thru with English forever."Ugga Bugga Boo is a real song released 1947. It's a comedy song, written by voice acting legend and radio host Mel Blanc (voice of Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, and many others) for his comedy radio show. I do wonder if Elvis had a song in this vein, as the Jetsons did a similar parody with an Elvis expy a few years later, but I couldn't find one.
"It was goodbye, Geoffrey ChauceHello, William Morris"Geoffrey Chaucer is considered one of the greatest English writers, specifically poets, of all time. Born in the 1400s.
Albert: Oh one last kiss; it gives so much bliss... what is your dentifrice! No, that's too clinical...Basically, toothpaste. Which is, kind of, related to kissing? It could actually be a paste or powder for cleaning the teeth, though in the 50s it wouldn't have been the default way to refer to what you used it seems from my research, like in this commercial. May be a way to show off that Albert really does have an excellent English teacher level vocabulary!
Mr. MacAfee: I am not an old man! I was 18 in World War II.This is one that may get a bit better with time. WWII ended in 1945, but the play is in 1958 at the earliest. It's better to demonstrate with a modern example written for 2024. "I am not an old man! I was 18 when Facebook first launched." Not quite the same impact as WWII, but the timeline is similar. Essentially this is not a flex and just shows he definitely is old to a teenager.
Albert: Remember the Conrad Birdie Creed dear. No smoking till you're fourteen.As mentioned in my blurb above, 14 was too young to smoke. A modern version may say "No drinking 'till you're 16" or something. Similar to the line "and stay out of the bar!" later on.
Albert: Why don't you girls go down to Track 12 and I'll talk to her.This is one of the many train tracks that must have run through this station. This station is located in New York, so it would make sense for there to be at least 12.
"Keep your money in your inside pocket. Wear your rubbers. And eat a hot lunch..."While "rubber" as slang for a condom definitely did exist in the 1950s, I believe it's far more likely Mae is referring to overshoes due to the context, though to be fair, I can't find a source to this being "official slang" besides casual mention in posts like these. Something tells me Mae is not randomly mentioning condoms lol.
Albert: Proud to be a plain G.I.!Mentioning this because it's faded away from current use and surged in usage most recently at WWII, this is just referring to being a soldier. (Source) Hence, G.I. Joe, if you're old enough to remember that.
Albert: And that's why he volunteered for...Men were drafted to join the US armed forces until 1973. (Source)
Albert: "Say Mr. Peterson," he cried eagerly, "Do you suppose I can get assigned to the front-line trenches? That way I'll be sure to get one of those dirty jerries...""Jerries" is slang for German soldiers and was most popular during WWII. The joke here is that WWII is over at this point - the enemies Conrad would be facing at this time would be the Vietnamese, not the Germans. When Rosie tries to correct him, he just says "whoever's dirty this time!".
Another Reporter: I'll make sure we've got a wire to New York.This is almost certainly setting up a telegraph communication to New York, which was still happening (though declining in popularity) by 1960. (Source)
Conrad: When I sing about a tree/I really feel that tree!/When I sing about a girl,/I really feel that girl,/I mean I really feel sincere!This isn't necessarily specific to the 50s or 60s but I think this joke gets missed because it seems so tame today. A huge part of Elvis' appeal was his explicit sex appeal at the time (in the form of - gasp! - hip thrusts!) so he's slipping in accidentally a reference to "feeling up" a girl%20for%20sexual%20pleasure) here. Yeah, that slang started in the 1930s!
Mrs. Peterson: She looks like Margo when they took her out of Shangri-La.Going to take this one right from that personal website I referenced above!
In the 1937 [movie] "Lost Horizon)" [...] a group of travelers are stuck in a utopia called Shangri-La, somewhere in the Himalayas. One of the residents of Shangri-La is Maria, played by Margo), a Mexican dancer and actress. When the travelers finally escape, Maria insists on going with them. But outside the realm of Shangri-La, her youthful beauty can no longer be maintained and she reverts to her true age, causing her to die and her appearance to transform to the hideously withered, wrinkled features of someone who has lived way beyond a normal life span.You can watch the movie free with ads here, if you're curious! Also, according to the synopsis, Maria never actually escapes Shangri-La. She just dies and "reverts to her true age". AKA looks very very very decrepit. I'm guessing this is more of an easy thing to misremember and better shorthand, though. See the face at 2 hr 3 minutes in abouts!
Gloria: Mae, can you hum Suwannee River?While this is a nice convenient copyright-free tune, it would definitely have been publicly known at the time. It had been sung at least partially by Bing Crosby, on the Honeymooners, etc. in recent years before the musical premiered. Unsure if this is what they were going for, but the original lyrics are racist - no wonder it was Mae's "favorite selection".
(Stage direction) Gloria tap dances as Mrs. Peterson hums gaily. Sort of Ruby Keeler-ish steps with a lot of feet-slapping.Ruby was a well known actress and dancer in the 1920s-30s (and then later after a break). Here's some footage of her dancing! Interestingly, in her early career she was cast in a musical called Bye, Bye, Bonnie. In a newspaper article review, it seems the plot wasn't very similar to Bye Bye Birdie, though it did involve someone going to jail. (Source)
Mrs. Peterson: I'll find you a typewriter (Exits) Albert: [TO GLORIA] Do you use the touch system? Gloria: Whenever possible.Albert is just referring to the touch system of typing - basically, not looking at the keyboard while you type. Still relevant today, though not with typewriters, which were standard until the 1980s, so that fits here. Of course, Gloria is of course referring to, uh, something a bit more sensual. (Read: She wants to touch him and not like a friend.)
Sullivan: So remember: your surest way to the best in color slides is to insist on the new Kodak! And now, the young man you've all been waiting to see.Just like media today, the Ed Sullivan Show certainly included ads. This included ad deals where Ed himself would promote a product, kind of like YouTubers do with "This video is sponsored by...". And, as you can guess, one of those products was Kodak cameras and camera related products. Kodak was still a huge brand at the time (there were not cell phone cameras as competition, so it was way more likely your home owned a camera or two), Kodak absolutely was sponsoring the Ed Sullivan show and had been for a few years (Source). Here's an example from the time period. What you may miss about this ad in the musical is that it's not actually advertising a camera! Cameras at the time required physical film be loaded into them, and wouldn't you know it, Kodak released a new high-speed color film in 1959! (I think this may be a coincidence, as Kodak had been selling color film for quite a bit before this) Yet another reference that's right on the nose of the current times (of the time)!
Albert: Who let that kid in here? Rosie: I did Albert. Albert: Rosie! Rosie: It's a sort of farewell present to you and Miss Rasputin. Wear it in good health.Not invented in the 50s by any means, but this phrase really isn't used as much today I think. There's not really a deeper meaning here besides sarcasm that I can find - it's just wishing someone well. Obviously, the sarcasm is dripping here lol.
STAGE DIRECTION: ...as Mr. MacAfee throws a tremendous Dinah Shore kiss to the audience.Dinah Shore was an actress and entertainer that had been popular for years at that point. Super interesting career if you want to give it a read. This is referencing her famous "Dinah Shore kiss" that she would give at the end of her show broadcasts and was a huge part of her brand. Here's an example!

2024.05.02 15:00 Kal-Elm A photo of some university students protecting the American flag leads to debates about free speech, wokeism, and Islamophobia
Props to Abdul, Muhammad, Muhammad, Shareef, Amir, Muhammad, and Omar. If only Osama was still alive to see this
You’ll get banned for this. He won’t. It’s pathetic.
9 year olds for everyone!
Again with the inaccurate Islamophobic comments! The prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), did not marry a nine-year-old. Aisha was six at the time of the marriage.. nine at the consummation. [...]
Police be upon him🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
.so you understand how cultures are similar, that's good.
Oh dang good one, you’ve totally made me see the light
Just say you hate brown people.
ThE wOkE LeFt The script you people follow is so fucking pathetic.[...]
hey bud, if you support Gaza, why dont you join them in their fight?
Right this way buddy! [Link to "How to join the IDF"]
Did I say I supported Israel???
[This goes on for a while...]The person you initially replied to never said they were supporting Gaza, what's your point? Also, way to edit your previous comment. Truly the sign of someome with conviction...
oh no a random internet troll thinks less of me [...]
Lol, well this is ironic... Bahahaha you're spineless. Keep up the good work
How will I ever recover from this
I'm sure you'll just go troll elsewhere and pretend this never happened. Don't worry, buttercup, you'll figure it out... eventually...
Damn another lethal blow to my self esteem
None of what I'm saying is really that impactful or hurtful. You just seem to want to interpret it that way. Hmmmm, I wonder why someone, initially so aggressive, would make lame attempts to up-play their victimhood?? Are you okay dude?
Wow now you’re making me feel weak by appealing to me at a more personal level[...] You’ve truly gotten the upper hand now!
[...]More people move from left to right than right to left. What is it about becoming older, wiser, and richer that pushes people to the right? [...]
What is it about statistically having more wealth that makes people favor policies that benefit the wealthy at the expense of the country? Hm I wonder
The more accurate statement is: motivated and successful people are wealthier and thus begin to align with republicans more because of republicans’ fiscal policies[...]
.So you people just lie to yourselves to cope with the fact you’re unpopular? Damn that’s fucking pathetic lmao.
You don’t interact with real people much do you
Is your mom a real person?
Send all the pro Gaza protestors taking down the flag to Gaza and let them see how they like it there.
Send the people to the warzone they’re protesting against?
I mean if they love Palestine more than their own country I don’t see why they shouldn’t go there instead of harassing our people here.
Being against children being killed means you want to live in Gaza?
Burning an American flag is protected speech according to our own Supreme Court[...].
Then it should be protected speech to burn the trans flag
Is it already? Any incidents of people getting sent to jail or are you just manufacturing fictional scenarios to make yourself mad.
If some kids took a trans flag down and burned it it would be national news so fast. Trust me.
It being viral and controversial alone wouldn’t make it illegal
Haha yeah bullshit. Those kids would be banned from the college so fast. The trans flag is essentially the crucifix to these people. It might as well be a religious thing
Is the college banning them proof they violated the campus code of conduct? (probably) Is the college banning them proof that what they did was illegal? (On its own still no)
oh please if someone put the lgbtq flag in chalk on a roadway and someone erased it the person erasing it would be charged with a hate crime so fast their heads would spin.
Examples?
[Some link I didn't read.]
Was he charged with a hate crime?
I’m sure if it wasn’t FL he would have been
So you only have hypotheticals to defend your point. Interesting.
Except when it's being worn as a cape on Jan 6!![User continues to not get the joke at all.]
It always comes back to 1/6 lol yall can’t let go
You gotta let go of 1865 first.
That makes no sense.
Why would you let go of an attempted coup? Fuck the insurrectionists and anyone who tried to downplay their efforts. Fucking traitor.
You gotta chill dude
Nah, you don’t chill when domestic terrorists try to overthrow your government. You deal with them the same way we’ve always dealt with them.
Ur so brave
And you're a coward
Thank you for using your online comments to keep me safe
Defining moment in American history[...] Sorry we can't let your attempted coup go lol
Y’all also burned down cities and looted hundreds of thousands of dollars from small businesses and resulted in the death of nearly 900 people. Just to top it all off you tried to get a 17 year old life in prison for protecting himself.
Damn what cities did I burn down? Sounds like I really fucked up 😬
Notice how the word “y’all” which is a contraction of the words “you” and “all”, which is not referring to a single person.
Hey I looked that up and that's not the name of a city I burned down?? Are you ok? Do you smell toast?
You really believe a group of unarmed people tried to overthrow the government?
I’m sure they smeared shit on the walls and chanted hang mike pence in a totally sarcastic patriotic way right??
I think you know how silly it sounds to argue a group a shit smearers without any weapons could overthrow the US government.
Mate it's a piece of fabric calm your tits
It’s a sign of respect. Especially for those who died defending it.
They didn't die to defend a flag. They died to defend a country.
Do we just… not believe in the concept of symbols anymore?
Not when we start roping dead people into an argument over what they died and killed for.
Defending it from what exactly? Brown people existing?
Wow, that’s racist. Many who died in its service had brown skin. Your history knowledge must only go back to BLM during the Trump election huh?
Lmao leftists cannot help their racism any longer it's hilarious
Racism is when you correctly identify white supremacy. Further proof that conservatives lack basic reading comprehension.
Note: I copied these comments around 16:00 EST yesterday - many of them now show up as [deleted]. That being said, they were copied directly with omissions cited with [...]The flag is extremely important in the US[...] Feel free to read the lyrics to our national anthem of you're confused. Then go bow down to your king and lick some more royal boots
Your national anthem doesn’t even qualify as a national anthem, musically
Fuck does that even mean lol gatekeeping national anthems is a new one
