The show always did perfectly hilarious depictions of people panicking in the face of crisis. This, and from other episodes, things like “Sure baby, next meltdown.” is a golden example, or the guy during the fire drill running in circles while another whacks people with a fire extinguisher.
On a slightly off-topic but still Simpsons-related incident, I was running late for something yesterday and returned a call I missed after getting out of the shower. At one point, I had to ask the other person to repeat something they had said. After I hung up, all I could think about was how I missed the perfect opportunity to say “You’ll have to speak up, I’m wearing a towel”. Maybe I’ll remember next time.
>Maybe I’ll remember next time
“I’ve already gone this far. I wonder what my life would be like if I robbed the Kwik-E-Mart?”
Ah fuck it, I don’t care how Homer is so Jerkass in “The Cartridge Family” (and he is a lot), it’s my favourite episode from Season 9.
Burns’ horrible toupee is just pure genius, it is so funny they did not even have to comment on it, it is just there.
And because we’ve never seen it before or since (as far as I remember), I’ve always figured it was an old “publicity photo” that Burns used back when he cared about the public knowing he was balding.
Love the animation! Shouldn’t it be “Homer Defined” instead of “Homer Alone,” though?
Yep, you’re right. I must’ve spaced out too when I saw the tag.
Boy I really hope yaddayaddayadda
