The level of energy that goes into something like this is just staggering. Burger King and our favorite show ever have teamed up to show everybody just how easy it is to get in your head. A friend of mine told me he had recieved an email with a drawing of himself, as a Simpsons character. He was a little freaked out. Most of us probably mentally or verbally reference The Simpsons two or three times a week. It’s a true cutural icon. And now you can be more American than you ever dreamed! Simpsonize!!
Personally, I was a little dissapointed in my Simpsons doppelganger, but I did come to a stark realization. They will get you. The combination of media that screams at you everywhere, everyday, is futile to ignore. And nothing is sacred. If they wanted you to…you would eat a greasy egg in a dirty ashtray, the whole time thinking about Mickey Mouse. Clearly, when the machines take over, it will be advertising that is used to control us.
