Quagmire and Joe argue about which ocean is better, Atlantic or Pacific; an argument that Seth Green's character's parents have in Woody Allan's Radio Days (1987)
Quagmire and Joe argue over which ocean is better, the Atlantic, or the Pacific Ocean. Quagmire says he gets to fly over the greatest ocean in the world; The Pacific Ocean, and Joe says "Everyone knows pound for pound, the Atlantic is the best ocean. Quagmire gets insanely frustrated and says "You can't weight the ocean moron", and Joe says "Yeah scientist can, they're doing it all the time". Joe is actually correct, as scientists have estimated that the ocean weighs approximately 1,450,000,000,000,000,000 (One Quintilian, four hundred and fifty quadrillion) short tons (One short ton = 2000lbs).
