      From: mxg77@po.cwru.edu              Despite some rehashed subject area (I'm looking at you, 4F17), the level of       commentary and satire was pretty high here, with a coherent plot and nuggets       (vague pun not intended) of wisdom. Actually, the Burns angle was probably the       least interesting, but        even it was far from his cartooniest uncharacteristic depictions. I'm too       young to really know "Mac Tonight", although I recognize it, and many of the       other food chain puns and mascots, past and present, were fun to pick out. I       also thought it was a neat        choice to color the meatless burgers with no outlines (except on the       billboard), as if to stress their unusual nature and make them seem like       Play-Doh or something. But why the Stranger Things bits?              DYN:       ...Scott Christian makes a very rare modern appearance?       ...despite Homer's claim that each catch phrase has two meanings (the burger       promotional one and the phrase it's based on), "meat beater" certainly has a       third, much dirtier one?       ...Bernie Sanders is apparently not one of the two "beloved" billionaires in       the world? (Nor is Elon Musk, whose star has fallen quite a bit since the show       worshipped the ground he walked on in TABF04!)              Previous episode stuff       2F16/2F20: The only previously depicted events I could pick out of the opening       montage of Burns evil       LABF10, YABF01: Anton Chigurh and his compressed air can are back              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
