On the eve of the opening of the hottest anticipated flick of the summer (we've got our tix for tomorrow night!), Listener Lou Cabron reminds us that donuts and Duff aren't the only vices propagated on the Simpsons: "It all started when the federal "drug czar" for President Bush (in 1990) warned patients at a drug treatment center that watching The Simpsons was 'not going to help you.' For the next 17 years, the writers added scenes where the characters were doing drugs. (And it isn't stopping; the movie's trailer shows Homer demanding more psychotropes.) The Simpsons have been taking drugs for 17 years -- pot, hallucinogens, and even trucker speed. These six video clips (via 10 Zen Monkeys) show the funniest examples -- plus a list of other Simpson drug binges.
