This episode as my title says, is a tribute to everything wrong in the simpsons.

Letsee the plot. Bart gets with another girlfriend .... again, we already know they ain't ending together. First thing bad, repetitive episode. They got no more new ideas, characters never growth, they only become dumber and dumber. And damm, this is an episode of 5 years ago. They try to make a critic about the destruction of the innocence of children's, and strict parents of today. And fail, first on Bart's girlfriend is a bad stereotype of '' Men don't understand womens'' , really, she is crazy, what the hell is there to understand ? and if you as a parent, your daughter told you that a boy kissed her without her consense, then what kind of answer do you expect ? The answer of the parents wasn't exaggerate, they even gave an advertise to the simpson to maintain his son away from her daughter, they seem pretty legit to me, you can't expect to everyone on the world to give hugs and kisses, specially if your daughter is involved. What kind of critic is this ?

The simpsons try so hard of being a social critic comedy that they are not even a critic anymore, they are commenter's, and their critics ain't good anymore.

In the other part we have Lisa being a pesky little kid with no morals, who's only goal is the achievement of acceptation. No background history, as we saw in older episodes how it was the reverse, and she cared more for her grades than almost anything, until the point she regretted back to her former year of school so she could still get A+. A plain contradiction to the character's personality, the critic is also as dumb as the plot of Lisa, under what rock or cavern are the Simpsons writers ? Do they really believe kids these days still act like the 80's ? no doubt there is still that kind of bully but damm, they are totally disconnected from reality.

And for the last, the cherry on the cake, the participation of Michelle Obama ... god were do I start ? It was SO sad, SO sad, to see the Simpsons, a very important and influent cartoon, of comedy and irony about the life of the average US family, turned into a bunch ball suckers. It was like they were dogs saying '' Please Obama pet us, we deserve it !! '' when Nelson introduced the First Lady. They have loosed any kind of impartiality as a Show, they are only liberal propaganda now. I didn't care the stereotypes of the Simpsons like Mr burns, or the Texan businessmen about the capitalism, that are real critics about the moral of the corporations in this country protected by the right, they were funny, but this .. First we see no respect of the taxpayers money. The first lady, abusing of his power and connections to the white house, to go around elementary schools witch helicopters and give selfpitty speechs ? And calling her one of the most popular women in the world ? For real ? why ? she is only the wife of the president, she was not elected, she souldn't being using the money of the state for their own personal affairs. And for everything that is good on the world, the part were she opened the helicopter door for the marine .... really ? I mean really ? is that supposed to show us that she is a ''independent strong women'' ? It was so pathetic and sad... And after this pathetic display, that was all pointless because we have seen Lisa playing with others and having fun in the past, we see no growth, no change no nothing. Sorry Michelle, your existence is useless on this show, you changed nothing, if the actual critic requires so, Lisa will have or not have any friends.
