I used to watch TV news and yell at the box. Now I jump up from the couch, sit at the computer and begin to type laughing maniacally saying "Wait until they read this." It's more fun than squashing tadpoles

When I first scanned the headline, I thought it said 'homoerotic' pictures were found. Then I read further and realized it was about Homer. But when I looked at the picutre, it didn't look anything like Bart or Lisa, so now I don't know WHAT its all about....
