Marge Simpson “Googles Herself” & Uses Google Maps

Apr 25, 2007 at 8:22am ET by Barry Schwartz

YouTube has a clip from the popular TV cartoon The Simpsons showing Marge "googling" herself:

Here’s the clip itself:

"629,000 results. Wow, and all this time I thought ‘googling’ yourself meant the other thing," exclaims Marge.

She then appears to click into Google Maps to see her house, where husband Homer is sunbathing naked on a hammock in their backyard.

The clip apparently comes from the most recent episode to air in the US, called "Marge Gamer." More about that episode here and here.

Hat tip to Valleywag.

Marge’s Google is a lot less powerful than ours:

My favorite line from the episode goes to Lisa. “I’m proud of you mom. You’re like Christopher Columbus, you discovered something millions of people knew about before you.”
