The London Underground schematic is the greatest map of all time. Wonderful to behold, clear, original...
And easily parodied, perhaps the surest indicator of great art. Today's entry is from the British comedy site Poke, The Daily Mail Moral Underground. The lines have names like Media Scum (including Madonna and Dr. Rowan Williams), Arch-Enemies (Scroungers and The French) and many that do double or triple duty on multiple lines, as London stations do in reality. Energy-Saving Bulbs is a stop on the PC Gone Mad, Cancers, and Nuisances lines.

That's a really interesting comment. One thing that great artists do is add to the stock of things we can use in jokes in the hopes that other people know what we're talking about.
