In Media
References to the word "dibs" are seen near the end of "The Nerdvana Annihilation", in the beginning of the "The Rothman Disintegration" and in "The Staircase Implementation" - three episodes of The Big Bang Theory. In The Nerdvana Annihilation, the character Rajesh Koothrapali, after calling dibs on a much-desired movie prop, responds to Howard Wolowitz's claim that he can't call dibs by telling him that he can and if he doesn't believe him he should "look it up on Wikipedia".

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“The media have just buried the last yuppie, a pathetic creature who had not heard the news that the great pendulum of public conciousness has just swung from Greed to Compassion and from Tex-Mex to meatballs.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“Few white citizens are acquainted with blacks other than those projected by the media and the so—called educational system, which is nothing more than a system of rewards and punishments based upon one’s ability to pledge loyalty oaths to Anglo culture. The media and the “educational system” are the prime sources of racism in the United States.”
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
