* In "The Italian Bob", the Simpsons travel to Italy, where they meet Sideshow Bob, who's serving as mayor of an Italian village and introduces them as honored guests. However, Homer makes rude facial expressions and hand gestures to some Italian people, prompting Lisa to say "Dad, don't act like [[UsefulNotes/BenitoMussolini Mussolini]].", to which Homer says "Oh, I thought I was doing UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump.". In 2016, Trump got in trouble when his presidential campaign's Twitter page retweeted a Mussolini quotation.

* In "The Sound of Bleeding Gums", Homer tells Lisa that only losers watch broadcast television, [[AsideComment while looking at the viewer]]. This episode would end up being a series low in the ratings, being the first to get less than a million viewers. Seems like Homer was right about that.

** The subplot with Homer and the "Happy Dude" autodialer becomes much more prophetic with the rise of robocallers and spambots affecting telephones in the 21st century.
