Ramble Strip

There's no stripping. (Sorry.) But there's rambling, usually in the area of science, politics, pop culture, signs that are irritatingly misspelled, and religion, or anything that happens to be on my mind at the time. I post on study breaks, so that I don't go insane. Insaaaaaaaane!

More than one kind of Simpson can irk you

I was just reading Biggeststars Blogs (the name of which really bothers me because I want the space, I need the space - and I also need the capital S) and saw the title of one post: Lindsay Lohan Item of the Week: Feuding with the Simpsons. At first I thought she had a problem with the cartoon family, and I was all, "ME TOO!" My issue is with Homer, and I shall spin the tale of my ire. Because it's my blog, and ire-spinning anywhere else just doesn't make as much sense.

In a recent episode, Flanders rents a room in his house to two girls who are supposed to be students but who actually set up a not-for-the-chirrun webcam, which Bart and his buddies discover. Hilarity ensues, because it's Flanders's house (see - "irony") and when Homer hears them giggling, he says:

What are you kids laughing at? If you say Jimmy Fallon, I'll know you're lying.
Boo, Homer! Doesn't he know that Jimmy Fallon can do no wrong? Stupid cartoon. I'd erase him but I think a lot of people would probably be mad at me.

Oh, and about Lindsay Lohan - if you care, she's mad at the Simpson sisters, but I don't have the slightest idea why. Once I saw "Ashlee" and "Jessica", I stopped reading, because the way Ashlee spells her name makes me mad. And speaking of Jessica Simpson - she's apparently back in the recording studio. Which is funny, because about a year ago, I distinctly remember issuing a decree that she apologize to Robbie Williams AT LEAST 52 times in succession for that horrific remake of Angels (lyrics, iTunes). And I also decreed that when she finished with that apology, she should repeat the sequence, forever and then into infinity times two. So I'm surprised that she has any time to record.
