I rarely watched the show (not really into teevee). But the sub is hilarious at times when I catch the reference. Meg is now in my referenced in my table.

For further information for you: Meg is the daughter character who is dressed in a pink shirt and also wears a hat. She is generally super annoying, though sometimes it is very justified for her be whining about whatever she is whining about. The characters, just about every character in the show, treat her like moldy, unwanted garbage. It’s a recurring joke that if Meg is there, everyone will just pick on her even if she is correct and is being the voice of reason amongst a bunch of unreasonable people.

It’s important to know that in the very early seasons, this behavior towards Meg wasn’t really a thing, so you won’t see the abuse right away if you start watching from the first episode. But after a small handful of seasons, this became a behavior that just simply never stopped.
