Quote of the Day

“This chair is two thousand dollars.  We could buy a whole living room set for that.” – Marge Simpson “Marge, there’s an empty spot I’ve always had inside me.  I tried to fill it with family, religion, community service, but those were dead ends.  I think this chair is the answer.” – Homer Simpson

Compare & Contrast: Disney, The Simpsons, & Zombie Simpsons

“Yeah, I used to be rich.  I owned Mickey Mouse Massage Parlors, then those Disney sleazeballs shut me down.  I said, ‘Look, I’ll change the logo, put Mickey’s pants back on!’  Pfft, some guys you just can’t reason with.” – Railroad Bridge Bum Walter Elias Disney is an inescapable presence in American animation.  Whether or not you like him, his work, or the giant company he spawned, when it comes to animation you are living in a world he did a great deal to shape.  The Simpsons always had some fun with this, enough that SNPP has an entire page…

Friday Link Dump – Emmy Apathy Edition

“This award is the biggest farce I ever saw.” – Lisa Simpson “What about the Emmys?” – Bart Simpson “I stand corrected.” – Lisa Simpson Emmy nominations were announced this week and Zombie Simpsons didn’t get nominated for Best Comedy, but Family Guy did.  As a result, cartoon wars raged across the plains of the internet.  But I don’t care in the slighest; I have two reasons for this: 1) We’re talking about Zombie Simpsons not The Simpsons.  And 2)  It’s the fucking Emmys!  Who gives a shit?  Anyway, there’s some good usage plus an excellent idea for a Ramones…
