This might be totally wrong, and if so I apologize, but I have a vague memory of that riff being in one of the two old Best Show episodes I still have on my phone: the six-hour show with PFT from June 2009; or "Toms Talks of His Exciting Trip to Los Angeles..." from July 2007.

Tom came up with an idea as he strolled through McCarren Park this past weekend. He thinks the authorities should drop a net over it, round people up, and start running IDs through the computer to review their criminal records. As we all know, Tom likes to wear those giant, old lady sunglasses, and the Brooklyn hipsters did not approve of them. He heard two people make a wisecrack about his eccentric eyewear. Tom points out that at least he wasn't wearing a shirt promoting long-defunct NJ zoos like Scotch Plains' Terry Lou Zoo or Jungle Habitat. He donned a nice clean shirt and nice clean slacks. Tom wonders if the dogs he saw ever realize that their owners are jerks who make them lay on hemp dog beds.
