The Simpsons - Whacking Day

    OK, so whacking snakes for fun is cruel and unneccessary, but this ep DOES have its funny moments:

    * When Lisa's school music teacher is sitting on a bench and freaks out a little at a bug on his shoulder and is then knocked over by fleeing snakes

    * Maggie shoving her soother into a hissing snake's mouth and it starts sucking on it

    * 'Born Free' playing when the snakes are released back into the wild



    I'm not sure if anything like Whacking Day actually exists but in the US there are Rattlesnake Round-ups where rattlesnakes are rounded up, put on display to be stared at by slack-yawed yokels and then killed and made into trinkets and snake meat. Poor snakeys
