Some would say that the greatest evidence of having made an impact on society is winding up as the butt of a joke on South Park.

This year’s holiday special, which airs Wednesday on Comedy Central, is no exception. The show sets its sights on Miley Cyrus, U2 and the Washington Redskins (whose name is, remarkably, still the Washington Redskins).

Roger Goodell, Uber and the Kardashian family were conspicuously absent.
