I'm pretty sure I just heard someone in the background saying over the radio, "What you talkin' 'bout, Willis? We going up top. Totally different". Not what I remember hearing as a kid during NASA launches :)

- jvoorhis 13y agoThanks for this. I heard it too, but thought for sure that I had imagined it.

- AYBABTME 13y agoSecond language speaker here, what does this sentence mean?
- ra88it 13y agoIt is a humorous reference to an American sitcom from the 80's called 'Different Strokes'. A lighthearted way of expressing disagreement. [edit: While I'm at it: the main character 'Arnold' would express disagreement with his brother 'Willis' by saying "What you talkin' 'bout Willis?" something like once per episode. This was a running joke for the sitcom.]
