Futurama song has devious hidden message

In the 2nd Season of Futurama there is an episode, "The Problem with Popplers". Fry and Bender find a planet full of tasty things (the "popplers") and sell them to Fishy Joe's (a fast food place). They then record the theme song for the popplers, which is this:

Pop a Poppler in your mouth
When you come to Fishy Joe's.
What they're made of is a mystery
Where they come from no one knows,
You can pick 'em, you can lick 'em, you can chew 'em, you can stick 'em.
If you promise not to sue us you can shove one up your nose.

Some researchers (you know, nerds) have found that played backwards, this song gives a devious message, that reaches our subconscient while watching the episode:

Explore Neepa-Noopa's snippers
Sue us if that snarb ekay mikkets
If we moosh, miffy licka, lick me murka
If we saw another Noofa in a wheelchair,
Mr. Rayanetto sauce!
He shaved the monkey love farm in your roof.
Hop-a-Hop!

If you don't believe us, listen for yourself:

KUSF 12.09.08 In the Soul Kitchen DJ Harry D

The Geator With The Heater-Jerry Blavat
This is Part 2 of a Tribute to the Musical Genius of Jerry Blavat, legendary Philadelphia
dj, performer and tireless, soul rebel spirit whose innovations turned the sound of radio
in Philadelphia upside down beginning in the 60's.

Philly DJ Jerry Blavat/The Geator With The Heater is a broadcasting legend and solid
sender of vintage r&b, pop and soul sounds whose deep love and respect for the music
are matched only by his wealth of knowledge and generosity of spirit.

The Geator is one of the most innovative and influential djs ever to get behind the mike
and On The Wheels of Steel in Philly. He is responsible for turning on several
generations of listeners and dancers to great black music over nearly five decades on
the radio both inside and outside the Greater Philadelphia/Jersey Shore area.

Plus The Geator still throws down every week at his high energy record hops, live
broadcasts from The Philly Park Casino, with the live stage shows he promotes with the
best soul, r&b and pop artists of the 50's-70's at Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center and with
the ongoing series of Geator Gold cd reissues of this music that features both well
known and obscure artists and songs.

R.I.P. Miley Cyrus

Goodbye Destiny*,

You will forever be alive in our hearts.
Because your songs are always on the bloody radio.

Your soul and your countless crisis and photos and other stuff for publicity like that will always be with us.
Unleast until Disney gets a new 15-year-old chick.

Offline we come, offline we end.

Good bye.

(seriously though, Miley Cyrus isn't dead. It's just there's all these videos saying good bye to Miley Cyrus because her Youtube account's been hacked and some idiot said she died. I just wanted to give my contribution before this ends up as an article section on Wikipedia).

On actual news, happy non-smoker day!
If your lungs are clean from harm, have a great day - jump, dance, sing a little bit!
If your lungs spit nicotine everytime you touch them... good for you.

Here you go, dear chain smokers (you didn't think I wouldn't post this, would you?)










* lol, Destiny (her name is actually Destiny Miley Cyrus - eh eh.)

That's it for today! Please join me next week for a four-hour Election Day special edition of the Tuesday "Lost & Found" from 12 noon - 4 PM EST! I will be urging you to vote! I feel that it's very important this year! Please don't feel that it doesn't matter whether you vote just because your state traditionally votes for a certain party, or because your candidate is ahead in the polls. The polls have often been wrong! Although I can't verbally campaign for any particular party, candidate or initiative on the air, I will be letting the music do the talking, so read between the lines. Your requests and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks for listening,
Eli Polonsky

See you after the election!
