I’m Sick of The Simpsons Repeatedly Relying On The Same Lame Villain, 14 Years After Retconning His Death
The Simpsons season 35 relied on Fat Tony as a stock villain again, even though the episode in question didn’t particularly need an antagonist. I was surprised by how unexpectedly compelling the first half of season 35, episode 15, “Cremains of the Day,” proved. After Larry the Barfly died in the opening scene, The Simpsons provided a surprisingly heartfelt tribute to the perpetually forgotten background character that I found genuinely sad. When Homer, Lenny, Carl, and Moe went on a road trip to scatter Larry’s ashes and absolve themselves of their guilt, I was genuinely intrigued.

Four Protest Songs That Backfired Spectacularly | Cracked.com
Music has been a tool of the oppressed since the first caveman beat his fists against a rock and bemoaned the hierarchy of the food chain. These days, however, popular music mostly serves as a beat to which people can rub their crotches against each other, ideally in the club. That makes it really easy for the masses to misinterpret the message of a song that does happen to have a deeper meaning. You know, on account of all the crotch rubbing.
