You know you've made it when South Park mocks you.

The controversial cartoon—which recently dubbed Kanye West a "gay fish" and laid a Mickey Mouse smackdown on the Jonas Brothers—name-checked Britain's Got Talent breakout star Susan Boyle in Wednesday night's episode.

The clip, centered around a spoof on the Somalian pirate story, features Cartman running away to Somalia and leaving a note.

"Dear Mommy and Daddy," Kyle reads, "I am running away. I am sorry, but I can no longer handle the monotony of middle-class life. Everyone at school is a f--king idiot, and if one more person talked to me about that Susan Boyle performance of Les Misérables, I was going to puke my balls up through my mouth…"

At least we already know the Scottish instant star and YouTube sensation has a sense of humor.
