We’ve got excellent usage from all over the globe this week. And I mean all over, from Cambodia to Lebanon to Ireland. There’s even a wonderfully titled blog from the UK. In addition to that we have iPads for sumos, an evil talking Krusty doll, several people doing sketches, and a homemade Simpsons table I would love too much to ever put anything on. Oh, and Season 13 came out this week, but I don’t care about that. Enjoy. 40 Movie References From The Simpsons – This is Smooth Charlie Apollo’s Click of the Week. We’ve linked to these types…

Friday Link Dump – ‘Think of the Children!’ Edition
“Think of the children!” – Helen Lovejoy Can The Simpsons be used as a cromulent educational device to teach the childrens how to do good English? Unpossible! We’ve got advertising to children, a shitty example of satire for high school students, and the moral quagmire that is “Lisa the Iconoclast”. Also there’s some excellent usage, an idiot who likes Zombie Simpsons, and the before time, the long long ago, gets described as both the “Golden Era” and the “Golden Years”. Enjoy.
