Since it's been confusing people, I probably should write some more :) Yup, Bob’s from a non Pastafarian world so that’s why he doesn’t quite feel at home!

I also don't get how the references to the flying spaghetti monster make Bob feel "not quite at home," though. Is there some sort of thing in Monster mythos that I don't know about? Or maybe just that where Bob's from, no one believes?

Since he's a fish, he can't really put his finger on anything :) “Put his fin on” is a play on “put his finger on.” Since he’s a fish, he can’t really put his finger on anything :)

Making reference to a lot of things in the environment is great and I like the references. What I don't get is what he "put his fin on" - I know it means he figured something out but I can't tell what he figured out. What about giving Bob goggles instead of glasses? Hi,
