In defence of Southpark
A recent episode of Southpark has attracted some criticism for the end scene where Paris Hilton puts a pineapple somewhere bad and is then herself placed somewhere bad also.
Tom Meyer does an excellent defence of Southpark, that if you get beyond the gross obscenities, there are actually some very good lessons it tries to get across. It is in fact a semi-conservative (more libertarian) show in drag.
I confess to being a total Southpark fan. In fact it has become a great dating test. If a girl I am interested in does not like Southpark, I just know we will not get along, so it saves time by ending it early.
