"Hindenburg sticky notes" refers to "Hindenburg sticky notes," of course! ;)
The episode mentions a "Hindenburg" movie and presumably sticky notes -- like the 3M product -- were sold featuring some image or design from the film. Now, I would presume the title of the film refers to the 1937 disaster involving the German-built LZ-129 in Lakehurst, New Jersey. Beyond that, I cannot say. |

No. Heads do not explode from knowledge. They explode from playing chess. Unfortunately, I have been known to play chess.
(Yes, yes, I do realize that the linked article is reprinted from a tabloid which was simply making it up. Yes, I'm sure Snopes and a dozen other places have explained how this is false. I know it is.) |

Now I finally have an excuse not to play chess! (Other than the fact that I'm really, really bad!)  |
