_Bart is standing before a large interactive Smokey the Bear display._

Robotic Smokey: Only who can prevent forest fires?  
[out of choices “you” and “me”, Bart presses “you”.]  
Robotic Smokey: You pressed “You” referring to me. The correct answer was you.

It is such a perfect reflection of life.

There’s a scene where Homer is trying to buy illegal fireworks at a convenience store he knows sells them, but he wants to be casual about it. So the fireworks are part of a bunch of random purchases of his, that include a porno magazine, a box of condoms, cheap booze, panty shields, and enemas.

When he gets home, Marge looks in the bag and says, “I don’t know what you have planned for tonight, but count me out.”
