More Crap

The episode satirizes U2 vocalist Bono, who is portrayed as strongly arrogant and competitive due to harboring an embarrassing secret.

The plot of "More Crap" satirizes the competitive nature of aiming to achieve a record in a peculiar category, and parodies elements of the 2007 documentary The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters.

After taking a prescription laxative, he undergoes an extremely painful bowel movement and produces an abnormally large, football-shaped chunk of feces.

Everyone is gathered in Zürich, where the institute's leader, Sir Orloff Broloff, confirms Stan's claim; he reveals that he defecated Bono in 1960, and his pride was such that he raised him as his child ever since.

[1][2][3] The documentary follows Steve Wiebe as he tries to claim the world high score for the arcade game Donkey Kong from reigning champion Billy Mitchell.

Bono's personality in the episode is similar to the depiction of Mitchell in the documentary, including how he is allowed to play by different rules than other competitors.

South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone spoke highly of the documentary, calling it a "really well-done movie".

[1] South Park has a history of using toilet humor since its debut, such as the recurring character Mr. Hankey, a sentient piece of feces.

[4] In the episode, women - such as Randy's wife Sharon - are portrayed as not understanding the pride men can feel for the size of their feces.

[6] In the scene, Randy's clinician shows him his "unborn" feces via medical ultrasonography, and warns him against traveling by airplane, as he is in his "turd trimester" - a pun on the third period of pregnancy.

[1] Stan makes remarks about Bono's wealth and knighthood, as well as his highly successful band, and his "hot wife", Alison Hewson.

In a joke, Bono is revealed to have first-place trophies in much smaller scale categories as well, such as "most Sports Illustrated subscriptions sold".

This alludes to the British sketch comedy series Little Britain, in which the character Harvey constantly insists on receiving "bitty" from his mother's breast, despite being an adult.

[14] P. F. Chang's China Bistro spokesperson Laura Cherry responded positively to the episode, and added that the restaurant chain's name has been used several times in the series.

In accord with the episode, the site names Randy Marsh as the current record-holder, but it also claims that the record's previous holder was President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy, who "is still considered one of the most prolific fecal producers".
