lippy 918 #1 January 13, 2003 What's yours? Personally, I can always laugh thinking of the one when Lisa was pretending to be a college student, and cruising around with her college friends she runs into Ralph. Just as Ralph is about to blow her cover, she screams 'Drive, Drive', and they speed off leaving Ralph alone. Then it shows him, he asks 'why do people run from me?' just before he pisses himself.I got nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #2 January 13, 2003 I love it when the local mafia and the chinese mafia have a gang war on the Simpson's front lawn. Marge tells everyone to go inside, Homer responds "Awww, but the little guy was about to do something cool." They all sit down at the kitchen table and the little guy comes crashing through the window. He stands up, bows and says "So Sorry" with a really bad accent and runs out the front door. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

lippy 918 #3 January 13, 2003 Was that on the new one tonight? Halfway through it I got called to work. Speaking of bad chinese accents, when Mr. Burns gets chinese delivered, the chinese chinese delivery guy says: 'you know sir, it is customary to tip' in perfect english, and Mr. Burns goes, in a really bad chinese accent: 'Me sorry, Me no speaky chinese'I got nuthin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #4 January 13, 2003 No, that was an old one, from the 2nd or 3rd season. I'm trying to remember exactly what the plot was, it was something along the lines that Marge started a baking company that wasn't doing well, so Homer hired the mafia to make them the goods sale and make Marge happy. It was something along those lines, although not exactly, since its been a long time since I've seen that one. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

SpeedRacer 1 #7 January 13, 2003 whats realy amazing abput the simpsons is that its been around for like 15 years now & its still a favorite, not only with americans, but apparently with the Brits & others. Check out the BBC TV listings... the simpsons is as popular overseas as it is here. I think thats interesting b/c it is really American parody, ie, the evil millionaire owner of the nuclear power plant, the fat donut-eating cop, the corrupt mayor, etc/ And it has these great quotes like Homer's "If you don't like your job, you don't strike! You just go in there every day and do it really half-assed!! It's the American way!!" damn,sounds like Clay's old job!anyway I think its cool that despite the fact that the Simpsons is so closely tied to making parodies of distinctly American things that it is still so popular overseas, and has been for 15 years or so. ok maybe some of those things,( ie the corrupt mayor etc. ) are not unique to america, but still...

ernokaikkonen 0 #8 January 13, 2003 It's hardly surprising to me. There are so many american TV-shows and movies on the TV here... So actually, from where I'm standing, the Simpsons is a parody of America as shown on TV and the movies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miked10270 0 #9 January 13, 2003 Favourite Simpsons scene: Every episode, the opening credit where Bart's writing his lines, they usually crack me up by provoking the image of why he had to do those particular lines.... "Bart-Bucks are NOT legal tender" "No-One wants to see that!" "Beans are not 'the musical fruit'" and so on... Also some of the things that are going on in the background behind the main storyline. Mike. PS. I don't think it's simply a parody of American life, it satirises small town life everywhere. Taking the piss out of the FrenchAmericans since before it was fashionable. Prenait la pisse hors du FrançaisCanadiens méridionaux puisqu'avant lui à la mode. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FreeFlyHol 0 #13 January 13, 2003 My favorite episode is where Bart is in love with the chick who used to play Darlene on the show Roseanne. The like the part where she says, "you won't be needing this anymore" as she pulls his heart out of his chest, throws in against the wall, it slides down through one of those trash can basketball hoops. Maybe it's just because I can relate, but it slays me. x's and o's, Hol :)When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lolie 0 #15 January 13, 2003 I like the episode when Reverend Lovejoy's daughter (Jessica? I think...) comes home and Bart falls in love with her. Then she turns out to be this big rebel and steals all the money from the collection plate and pins it on Bart. "You're bad... you're bad, and I like it."

PhillyKev 0 #23 January 13, 2003 Ralph quotes are the best: "Doctor Hibbert said my nose would stop bleeding if I'd just keep my finger outta there." "My cat's breath smells like cat food."

"Principal Skinner, I got carsick in your office." "Me fail English? That's unpossible." "Oh boy, sleep! That's where I'm a viking!" "When I grow up, I'm going to bovine university!"" "My neck hurts and my ear hurts. I have two owwies." "Mrs. Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet making babies and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me." "When I grow up, I want to be a principal or a caterpillar." "I found a moon rock in my nose!" "Help! She's touching my special area!" "Bushes are nice 'cause they don't have prickers. Unless they do. This one did. Ouch!" "This is my sandbox, I'm not allowed to go in the deep end." "That's where I saw the Leprchaun. He tells me to burn things!"

freekflyguy 0 #25 January 13, 2003 With out a doubt my favourite scene is when they are at Duff Gardens. Bart is in the gift shop with one of Marge's sisters, he is looking for a sign that says "Bart" but finds one that says "Bort" que lots of people being called "Bort". Then the piece de resistance Bart finds a pair of "Beer Goggles" on the rack, puts them on and is backoned by this babe. When he takes them off he sees it was his aunt ugh. I'm sure the rest of the guys will relate to that. BuzzIt's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
