the simpson's rant...

For years we, faithful Communications students, would analyze The Simpsons as an example of a remarkable parody and a superior display of satirical genius... until...

------------------

Dr. Hibbert:
I'm afraid your playing days are over my friend, but don't worry, you can fall back on your degree in--Communications? Oh dear Lord!


Luchenko: Da I know I know it phony major. Luchenko lean nothing, nothing!

------------------

Add to that "phony major," being totally jaded... We

...can't enjoy a cup of Starbucks, or shop at Walmart.

...don't dare buy anything with tags of "Made in _____" anywhere outside of the western world.

...endorse Buy Nothing Day.

...spend our freetime culturejamming.

...side with Michael Moore, our hero.

...believe 2010 is baaaaad news. No Expo 86 deja vu pleez.

Adbusters. Enough said.

...rant on the commodification of culture.

...protest as a hobby... or lifestyle?


We are cynical, sarcastic and completely jaded.
