Simpson Syndrome
a condition caused by the unwarranted promotion of a talentless, tasteless, or
otherwise unworthy person, event, location, or other. Popularized by the insane amount of promotion given to Ashley Simpson despite the fact that nobody liked her or her music. Phrase was
originally coined on "Riding with the window down..." podcast - June 12, 2006.
After seeing that the reviews and reality of the new
blockbuster were not at
all the same, he chalked it up to another case of A.S.S.
