Flash from the Past: Simpsons Video Captures Our "Life" in Just 49 Seconds

By Elizabeth Nelson
In the late 80s we had the "gift" of Matt Groening's humor, when he gave birth to Bart Simpson and his entire family family the Simpsons.  At  times, Groening had a way of summing up the 80s family experiences, like in this clip.   Watch this clip, it's only a few seconds:
In 49 seconds Groening encapsulates our entire "life," from whether to enroll in college, get married or have children (intended or not), to choosing a job and losing our hair.  This Simpsons Couch skit, like always, is a parody of the board game Life, and it captures it all.




So, how’s your “game” going, and are you remembering to count your blessings, and not just the stops along the board?
