Like so many times before, and with so many predictions, The Simpsons' has its own cult following with fans pointing out similarities between the fictional series and real life. While not a prediction, this meme was a major throwback to the all the time fans across the internet were shocked by the show's earlier prediction.
This meme comes from a scene in a Season 7 episode titled "22Short Films About Springfield." In a funny interaction between Superintendent Chalmers and Principal Skinner, Skinner tries to blame the northern lights for a cooking accident. Chalmers replies: "Aurora Borealis! At this time of year! At this time of day! In this part of the country! Localized entirely within your kitchen!" And, so, a meme was born, and it fits right in with the countless moments the show has inspired.
