re: How I Met Your Mother Season 8 full season thread

You being the donkey here. The episode is completely changed if the writers the entire episode are using pole vaulting as a metaphor. No actions by the other characters make any sense specifically Ted. The entire episode he knows there is something real wrong and she wont tell him. He would obviously not keep fishing if she was told she was infertile. Now the last referance as told to the kids MIGHT have been written that way Ill give that one to you but it also makes just as much sense not to be. Seeing as they are his kids, keeping with the way the writers have written in the past, he would have addressed them as them being familiar with her not having kids.
