Normally, The Simpsons are funny (the earlier seasons), but this scene is so accurate and haunting. I watched this particular episode of The Simpsons when it first came out around 20 years ago and sure enough things have changed. What's worse, what's "it" changes so much quicker because of the Internet. In the past, there were these different lifestyle cultures, for better or for worse: The beatniks, the hippies, the yuppies, the slackers.. Now it's just one big concoction of nothingness.
