Even More Evidence That Life Imitates The Simpsons

From the episode entitled "King Size Homer":

Bart: When I grow up I want to be a lardo on workman's comp, just like Dad.
[Imagines an older, superfat Bart lying on a bed with
media people all around him.]
[Southern accent] I wash myself with a rag on a stick.
[The media applauds.]


From today's news:

Bill Fabrey and Nancy Summer founded Amplestuff, of Bearsville, N.Y., when Summer, who weighs 450 pounds, told Fabrey that she couldn't find a sponge to reach certain parts of her body. Fabrey, an engineer, came up with Sponge on a Stick.
