At least The Simpsons gets free publicity on NBC

The 2012 Olympic logo for the Lisa Simpson Cosplay Event

The Olympics committee must be a bunch of filthy rich middle-aged/old guys who are completely clueless about modern culture. They need to acknowledge that their decisions could be radically misinterpreted by the, oh, 98% of the rest of the world that watches TV and surfs the Internet, and hire a couple of snarky twenty-somethings to point out things like, “Hey, that logo looks like Lisa Simpson is blowing some dude.”

Why does Olympic marketing so monstrously suck rotten eggs? Anyone remember that horrible mascot from the Atlanta games? Or Sam the Eagle? The 2012 logo will just be more corporate detritus, flushed down the toilet of our collective memories, where it will rot in the forgotten cesspool of our 15-minute-long culture.
