Today’s the day we celebrate Charles Montgomery Plantagenet Schickelgruber Burns, the owner and manager of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. Without this ancient billionaire, the Simpson family would simply be poor, instead of part of the working poor. So feel free to say “exxxcellent” all day long. And don’t forget to release the hounds.
Other people may tell you that this is actually the birthday of poet Robert Burns, and that you should celebrate by playing the bagpipes, eating haggis, drinking scotch, reciting poetry in a thick Scottish accent, and closing out the evening by singing Auld Lang Syne. But that just sounds frickin’ weird.
