A series of events led to the idea of The Hirsute Bopper popping around my head for a week. And as those of you who’ve had the misfortune of listening to me pitch comedy ideas know, I love jug bands as a comedic premise. It’s a result of my profound fondness for Emmet Otter’s Jug Band Christmas. Hence those two jokes. I have no real opinion about the six other panels.
Next Week: Lou Dobbs hunts down those wascally immigwants.

Shit, you’re right. But if Groening doesn’t mind Fall Out Boy taking that name, I’m sure I can abide an even douchier (if that’s possible!) group taking something I came up with.

I don’t think you can COPYRIGHT names. You can trademark them, however.
