The Simpsons movie opens tonight, which I guess is pretty exciting for all the nerds who are already finished with Harry Potter and need something else to write spoilers about on the internet.

The Boston Globe did a little informal poll RE: Simpsons characters, and since John Kerry is the raddest Bostonite since a Mr. Adams of the same first name, he was included.

His favorite Simpson?

"I could say my favorite character is Mr. Burns, because thanks to him even after Dick Cheney is out of office he will live on as a cartoon. But I'm actually a Bart fan, despite the fact Time named him one of the 100 most influential people, and I didn't make the list. He once mooned a doctor, indicating he has the same view toward our current health-care system most Americans do."
