[kids laughs at Itchy and Scratchy]
Marge: How many times can you laugh at that cat getting hit by the moon?
Bart: It's a _new_ episode.
Lisa: Not exactly...they pieced it together from old shows, but it
seems new to the trusting eyes of impressionable youth.
Bart: Really?
Lisa: Ren and Stimpy do it all the time.
Marge: Yes they do, and when was the last time you heard anyone talk
about Ren and Stimpy?

My, all this senseless violence. I don't understand the appeal.... - Bart: Oh wow, cool!

scandalous story of my own.
