Is it "safe enough" or "safen up"? I have always thought it the
former, but a lot of people think it the latter. Which is right? I
know closed captioning makes mistakes, and snpp.com has been known to
as well.

It's something like. "You there, be more safe! And you, ... safen
up!"

Given the context, I'm going with "Safen up!" Sounds like something Homer
would make up. "Safe enough" just doesn't have the comedy punch.
I'll leave it to others in the group to go home to their DVDs and loop it
300 times.

According to http://www.snpp.com/episodes/8F09.html, the last word on
everything safe, and the last word on the Germans,
Hey you, stop being... so unsafe! Smitty! Safen up!
