I want to see Matt Groening make a Life in Hell cartoon just as a point of of comparison.

Hambone!

Jesus fills you with the holy spirit.

The Lockhorns came out in 1968, and one year later California became the first state to legalize no-fault divorce. Coincidence?

Now that you mention it, yeah.

Pluto Nash wasn't really a superhero, but I'm willing to believe he ruined a lot of things.

Well now that you mention it, for thousands of years. The power of oxen was used to power all sorts of things, carriages, plows, and more elaborate things like mills. Not as fancy as those newfangled steam engines, but still.

Although the "Number 12 looks just like you" world is obviously dystopian and the episode makes a basically valid point, (a bit simple, but that's how the Twilight Zone is) I feel like stories like that have pushed the conversation too far in that direction. There are perfectly valid reasons why someone might want to

Among various style changes in Octopus Pie since 2009, Meredith Gran really used to draw Eve differently.

Of course, there's one Terry Gilliam movie with a sequel idea all ready to go: Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72.
