Every time the Simpsons predicted new technology and got it right

The Yard Work Simulator became FarmVille

On “The Simpsons” Season 9, Episode 12 — “Bart Carny” – Marge tries to get the kids to do some yard work. She’s disappointed when they refuse, but Homer, as his usual oblivious self, ends up taking them all to the carnival anyways. Once there, they want to go on all fun rides, with Bart expressing his enthusiasm over trying the “Yard Work Simulator,” despite his reluctance to perform any actual yard work earlier.
