I think you entirely missed the part where I find it laughable that you are learning about the USA via the Simpsons. Yes, you can get a lot from it, but you've got to understand that it is a comedy. Do you learn about the UK by watching Monty Python, too?
miss what?
1. Comedy? perhaps comedy of the absurd.
2. the simpsons and snl portrait situations, ridiculized i accept
of how the society reacts to every day events.
3. want to learn about double morale, heart bleeding stories?
watch 60 minutes and 20/20
4. want to see real comedy? watch news broadcasts
5. foul language and profanity? south park rules!
6. Monty Phyton? thick as a brick good ol' comedy, a taste
of guinness draught, eel pie and chips
That is how you can smeeeeell what USA is cooking!
