In A Bug’s Life, the circus ringmaster is a flea. It’s a flea circus.

Admittedly I had heard the term “flea circus” my entire life but only this morning looked up what it actually was. I mean it’s pretty straightforward, a bunch of fleas made to look like they’re in a circus, but I was missing the history and context.

    In the Futurama episode where Leela gets blinded there’s another patient in the hospital who asks “Doctor, how’s my cyst?”

    The little Doctor, who appears to be an anthro-Chihuahua says “Grande”

    I still have no idea what this is about.
