That was future Ted saying that line. So obviously he knows what she meant by pole vaulter because he knows she doesnt have kids.


Yes but his kids would know that too. Why would he tell his kids what they already know? Its not like theyd need the information that a person theyve known all their lives didnt have kids.

He didn't tell the kids like it was some sort of revelation to them. it was a narration device used to tell the audience.

This is a dumb theory. The light show at the end was because ted thinking there had to be something more than pole vaulting but that she wouldnt tell him.


No shite? I don't see your point here. And its not really a theory, its what the writers give to you spelled out loud as can be

quote:

Pole vaulting wasnt "a sandwich". .


Then You completely missed the point of why she brought up a "sandwich". The article is saying Robin is using "Pole Vaulting" as a metaphor for being a mother in the same way that a sandwich is a joint when future ted is talking to his kids



quote:

I dont think the kids mean anything because she was imagining what it would be like if her and barney had kids of their own.


Who said the imaginary kids mean anything?
