the simpsons

the best god damn fucking american animation ever! it is the longest running american sitcom and the longest running american animation program to date. it was created by cartoonist Matt Groening and is a spinoff of the 1980s program from The Tracey Ullman Show. the show circulates around the simpson family- homer, marge, bart, lisa, and maggie- and their "typical" life. there is a hoard of post Cold War popculture and everyone is a protrayed after a stereotypical figure. the simpson's is now on their 17th (or 18th) season.

the simpsons is pure genius because unlike many shows on FOX like Family Guy, the simpsons doesnt need to pile a load of crude humor and sexual jokes just to be funny.
the simpsons is almost 18 years old. matt groening based many aspects of the show off of his own family and childhood in portland, oregon. almost every character is a stereotypical figure. e.g.:

homer- lazy dad with a low level job
marge- typical suburban housewife of the 1950s
mr. burns- evil rich bossman
chief wiggum- over weight lazy police officer
ralph wiggum- school wierdo
nelson muntz and his crew- schoolyard bullies who beat you up for your lunch money
martin prince- teacher's pet and geek
edna krabappel- downtrodded school teacher
seymour skinner- educational bureacrat
fat tony- mob boss
dr nick- shady quack
apu- southeast/middle east asian shop keeper
helen lovejoy- town gossip
cletus- southern white trash (in this case, the "slack jawed yokel")
ned flanders- wierdo neighbor who has a perfect life and is also a devouted christian

the rest of the characters are self explainatory. these are the most obvious

still, the simpsons is the greatest tv show on the planet and when it ends, i shall throw myself upon a sword and DIE!!!!

sakabatou

The weapon of choice used by Rurouni Kenshin protagonist Himura Kenshin after becoming a rurouni.

Literally meaning "reverse-edged sword," the sakabatou is just that. Instead of the blade being on the curved edged, the blade is actually where the blunt edge would be, with the blunt edge being on the curve. Thus, when used just like any normal katana, the sakabatou can't cut or kill: the perfect weapon for Kenshin since his oath to never kill again.

Though replicas have been reproduced, the sakabatou is purely the brainchild of RK creator Nobuhiro Watsuki, and no sword matching the sakabatou's description has ever been recorded in history.
Kenshin's sakabatou may not be able to kill you, but he can still beat the shit out of you.

dress code

a schools cheap alternative to uniforms, because even though they make u wear no jeans and collared shirts, everyones still acts even dumber than they have before.
our school has no logic at all. first they eliminate half days, then they waste their millage money on a tennis court that they dont even need they replace all of the good carbonated drinks with faygo, and now a complicated dress code that isnt gonna change our test scores or behavior. we're better off with uniforms (but our school also does not know how to manage money correctly)

Selena

One of the best Latin artists ever. She was the first woman to become a Tejano singer, which consisted of men. Her band consisted of her family, friends, and husband, Chris Perez. She sold many record world wide....She was killed by her fan club president on March 31, 1995, but her music and memory lives on...

Yiji

The ancient Chinese equivelent of a Japanese geisha. Both groups are still confused as being high class- prostitutes (a.k.a. courtesans), though there jobs strictly involved entertaining their clients through music and poetry.

It was rare when yiji and geisha engaged in sexual activity with their clients.
I read that one of my ancestors was a Yiji during the Song Dynasty.
