The Snurples was a TV Show that Manny watched in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Third Wheel. The Snurples characters have their own language and Greg and his family can barely understand it while Manny appears to understand it and it also ruins Manny's social skills as he talks in this language. Susan read in a parenting magazine that The Snurples is not good for little kids as it sets them back in social skills, this working true as Manny doesn't have a friend except for imaginary friends. However, Manny's social skills improved, as Mikey was his friend in Hard Luck, implying that he is getting better.
