South Pork. (Man 1: First we were friends f---ing around, trying to get laid... now Matt is married, and I've got a little family.) Trey Parker and Matt Stone struck comedy gold with "South Park." (They killed Kenny!) Liberals embraced their puppet movie. (Man 2: "Team America: World Police" is the fiercest indictment of colonialism since "Burmese days") (Man 3: Also it makes fun of Bush real good.) But now the stoner anarchists are old. (Man 1: The economy is dead. We're at war on 5 fronts. So we thought a boradway send-up of mormon missionaries in Africa would be relevant.) The media response to their Newfound maturity is rapturous. (Man: Humor shouldn't offend. It should barely be noticed.) Selling out has never been so easy. (Man 3: Of course we still love Matt and Trey... we can't afford to see their new play so there's nothing to make us hate them.)
