Patty's a dyke

Sandra Dee is dead, Hunter S. Thompson shot himself in the head and Patty's a big ol' dyke.

Did you catch last night's episode of The Simpsons? If you weren't scared away by the parental warning ("WARNING: Your children may develop their own perspective, independent from your hateful view of gays and lesbians."), you tuned in to see Marge's sister Patty reveal her love of clam shucking. (I just came up with that one. You like?)

According to The New York Times, prior to last night's broadcast, oddsmakers had Patty as the favorite, 7-5.
