After the first one, you knew the trick was coming every time a character said anything remotely sane. One of my least favorite episodes ever.

I guess other people like it, but it's a drawback of sitcoms, in my honest opinion. I can't think of a HIMYM episode that's done it quite yet - at least not without it being revealed only at the end...maybe it'll be more like that instead of the "impending doom" feeling that I hate.
