Life imitates The Simpsons

From io9, Gawker Media’s science fiction blog, comes a report that Russia will once again be parading ICBMs in Red Square on Victory Square.

This story brought to mind a moment from “Simpson Tide,” an episode from the ninth season of The Simpsons:

Russian official: The Soviet Union will be pleased to offer amnesty to your wayward vessel.
American official: The Soviet Union? I thought you guys broke up.
Russian official: Yes, that’s what we wanted you to think! [laughs]
