    That or he’s been doing this non-stop for thirty years. You tend to cover a lot of scenarios in that time.

      Yea, there’s over 700 episodes of a show that directly speaks about American culture. You’re gonna get some guesses right. Bet there’s as many misses as well but we don’t call them predictions until they’re true.

    I happen to know that Matt Groening weighs significantly more than a duck and as such can’t be a witch.

    I think since his early Life in Hell comics he just has had a keen satirical and critical mind and sees how often life is stranger than fiction.

    A male witch is a warlock right? Perhaps he’s a reality warper, and isn’t predicting things like Trump becoming president, but rather he’s MAKING IT HAPPEN!!! BURN THE WARLOCK!

      male witch is a warlock right

      Depends on your source. I’m sure there’s some context on which that’s true.

      If we’re talking the transphobic author’s world, a male witch is a wizard. Warlock, there, is a title kinda like “knight”.

      In D&D a warlock is a person who gets magic by forming a pact with an otherworldly patron, like a devil or fey. A witch has meant different things at different times, but probably most strongly conjured images of an old-looking hag brewing potions with a familiar.

      According to IRL wiccan lore a warlock is an evil male practiser of witchcraft, while a witch can be male or female.

      Other contexts will have other explanations, I’m sure.

      Here let me try: Matt, you’ve been mocking capitalism and mainstream society for over three decades and in the process have managed to make one of the most overly commercialized mainstream tv shows to ever exist.
