Maybe, but it seems to be what a lot of people are expecting, so maybe they won't. Certainly the recession would be a ripe target.

Or maybe Kenny's family has to teach South Park how to be poor.

The "white foam" they sprayed on the audience and the girls backstage opening their mouths had me on the floor.

Re: South Park: Season Thirteen
Oh my God!
Just finished watching this.
The most hilarious South Park....EVER!
I couldn't believe this made it through the censors --- especially the
snowman the kids were building.
I don't understand how Disney isn't having a fit over this. Some
people may actually look at this episode as marketing truth.
My favorite highlights were the Mamba condoms, the snowman, the
white foam being sprayed in the girl's faces....and of course, Mickey
cursing and beating the crap out of the pop group.
Just an awesomely funny episode that really pushed the envelope.
This is top-notch South Park!

It's an interesting point. I've heard the theories that publically claming to hold onto virginity is a back door (no pun intended) way of selling sex to the public. Take Brittney Spears, who famously "held on" to her virginity. Every time that was mentioned, who didn't think about her sexually? Flash forward a few years and one of her big songs is called "If You Seek Amy" (Say it to yourselves a few times)

Re: South Park: Season Thirteen
The thing I love about Matt and Trey is that they do bring out very
ugly and controversial truths about the material they parody.
I'm not saying that the purity rings are a marketing gimmick by
Disney to sell sex to underage teens.
However, on the other hand, it doesn't seem too far off from the
truth that Disney is able to sell these sexy teen idols to an underage
audience under the guise that they have some sort of purity contract
with themselves.
I mean, the genius of this past week's episode is that Matt and Trey
are cleverly using over-the-top humor to make a point. I sat there
and thought to myself, "Gee, what a brilliant idea if all of this were true."

Bingo. Taking care of a baby is hard enough when you're in your thirties and planning for it ahead of time, let alone in your teens!

This episode was great. Usually the SP season premieres are lame -- this could very well be the best one since "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe."

They actually do exist. There are condom ads (I don't think any of them air on American TV) that do just that to some extent. The one I remember was a kid with his young mother in a grocery store and the kid is screaming his head off, throwing stuff, etc. I'm sure you can You Tube it.
