[Leisler]

1. Homer: D’oh.
2. Ralph: Me fail English? That’s unpossible.
3. Lionel Hutz: This is the greatest case of false advertising I’ve seen since I sued the movie “The Never Ending Story.”
4. Sideshow Bob: No children have ever meddled with the Republican Party and lived to tell about it.
5. Troy McClure: Don’t kid yourself, Jimmy. If a cow ever got the chance, he’d eat you and everyone you care about!
6. Comic Book Guy: The Internet King? I wonder if he could provide faster nudity…
7. Homer: Oh, so they have Internet on computers now!
8. Ned Flanders: I’ve done everything the Bible says — even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff!
9. Comic Book Guy: Your questions have become more redundant and annoying than the last three “Highlander” movies.
10. Chief Wiggum: Uh, no, you got the wrong number. This is 9-1…2.
11. Sideshow Bob: I’ll be back. You can’t keep the Democrats out of the White House forever, and when they get in, I’m back on the streets, with all my criminal buddies.
12. Homer: When I held that gun in my hand, I felt a surge of power…like God must feel when he’s holding a gun.
13. Nelson: Dad didn’t leave… When he comes back from the store, he’s going to wave those pop-tarts right in your face!
14. Milhouse: Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl, Bart? *Why did I have the bowl?*
15. Lionel Hutz: Well, he’s kind of had it in for me ever since I accidentally ran over his dog. Actually, replace “accidentally” with “repeatedly” and replace “dog” with “son.”
16. Comic Book Guy: Last night’s “Itchy and Scratchy Show” was, without a doubt, the worst episode *ever.* Rest assured, I was on the Internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world.
17. Homer: I’m normally not a praying man, but if you’re up there, please save me, Superman.
18. Homer: Save me, Jeebus.
19. Mayor Quimby: I stand by my racial slur.
20. Comic Book Guy: Oh, loneliness and cheeseburgers are a dangerous mix.
21. Homer: You don’t like your job, you don’t strike. You go in every day and do it really half-assed. That’s the American way.
22. Chief Wiggum: Fat Tony is a cancer on this fair city! He is the cancer and I am the…uh…what cures cancer?
23. Homer: Bart, with $10,000 we’d be millionaires! We could buy all kinds of useful things like…love!
24. Homer: Fame was like a drug. But what was even more like a drug were the drugs.
25. Homer: Books are useless! I only ever read one book, “To Kill A Mockingbird,” and it gave me absolutely no insight on how to kill mockingbirds! Sure it taught me not to judge a man by the color of his skin…but what good does *that* do me?
26. Chief Wiggum: Can’t you people take the law into your own hands? I mean, we can’t be policing the entire city!
27. Homer: Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It’s what separates us from the animals…except the weasel.
28. Reverend Lovejoy: Marge, just about everything’s a sin. [holds up a Bible] Y’ever sat down and read this thing? Technically we’re not supposed to go to the bathroom.
29. Homer: You know, the one with all the well meaning rules that don’t work out in real life, uh, Christianity.
30. Smithers: Uh, no, they’re saying “Boo-urns, Boo-urns.”
31. Hans Moleman: I was saying “Boo-urns.”
32. Homer: Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.
33. Homer: Here’s to alcohol, the cause of — and solution to — all life’s problems.
34. Homer: When will I learn? The answers to life’s problems aren’t at the bottom of a bottle, they’re on TV!
35. Chief Wiggum: I hope this has taught you kids a lesson: kids never learn.
36. Homer: How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?
37. Homer: Homer no function beer well without.
38. Duffman: Duffman can’t breathe! OH NO!
39. Grandpa Simpson: Dear Mr. President, There are too many states nowadays. Please, eliminate three. P.S. I am not a crackpot.
40. Homer: Old people don’t need companionship. They need to be isolated and studied so it can be determined what nutrients they have that might be extracted for our personal use.
41. Troy McClure: Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”
42. Homer: A woman is a lot like a refrigerator. Six feet tall, 300 pounds…it makes ice.
43. Homer: Son, a woman is like a beer. They smell good, they look good, you’d step over your own mother just to get one! But you can’t stop at one. You wanna drink another woman!
44. Homer: Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that’s even remotely true!
45. Mr. Burns: I’ll keep it short and sweet — Family. Religion. Friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business.
46. Kent Brockman: …And the fluffy kitten played with that ball of string all through the night. On a lighter note, a Kwik-E-Mart clerk was brutally murdered last night.
47. Ralph: Mrs. Krabappel and Principal Skinner were in the closet making babies and I saw one of the babies and then the baby looked at me.
48. Apu: Please do not offer my god a peanut.
49. Homer: You don’t win friends with salad.
50. Mr. Burns: I don’t like being outdoors, Smithers. For one thing, there’s too many fat children.
51. Sideshow Bob: Attempted murder? Now honestly, what is that? Do they give a Nobel Prize for attempted chemistry?
52. Chief Wiggum: They only come out in the night. Or in this case, the day.
53. Mr. Burns: Whoa, slow down there, maestro. There’s a *New* Mexico?
54. Homer: He didn’t give you gay, did he? Did he?!
55. Comic Book Guy: But, Aquaman, you cannot marry a woman without gills. You’re from two different worlds… Oh, I’ve wasted my life.
56. Homer: Marge, it takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen.
57. Superintendent Chalmers: I’ve had it with this school, Skinner. Low test scores, class after class of ugly, ugly children…
58. Mr. Burns: What good is money if it can’t inspire terror in your fellow man?
59. Homer: Oh, everything looks bad if you remember it.
60. Ralph: Slow down, Bart! My legs don’t know how to be as long as yours.
61. Homer: Donuts. Is there anything they can’t do?
62. Frink: Brace yourselves gentlemen. According to the gas chromatograph, the secret ingredient is… Love!? Who’s been screwing with this thing?
63. Apu: Yes! I am a citizen! Now which way to the welfare office? I’m kidding, I’m kidding. I work, I work.
64. Milhouse: We started out like Romeo and Juliet, but it ended up in tragedy.
65. Mr. Burns: A lifetime of working with nuclear power has left me with a healthy green glow…and left me as impotent as a Nevada boxing commissioner.
66. Homer: Kids, kids. I’m not going to die. That only happens to bad people.
67. Milhouse: Look out, Itchy! He’s Irish!
68. Homer: I’m going to the back seat of my car, with the woman I love, and I won’t be back for ten minutes!
69. Smithers: I’m allergic to bee stings. They cause me to, uh, die.
70. Barney: Aaah! Natural light! Get it off me! Get it off me!
71. Principal Skinner: That’s why I love elementary school, Edna. The children believe anything you tell them.
72. Sideshow Bob: Your guilty consciences may make you vote Democratic, but secretly you all yearn for a Republican president to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king!
73. Barney: Jesus must be spinning in his grave!
74. Superintendent Chalmers: “Thank the Lord”? That sounded like a prayer. A prayer in a public school. God has no place within these walls, just like facts don’t have a place within an organized religion.
75. Mr. Burns: [answering the phone] Ahoy hoy?
76. Comic Book Guy: Oh, a *sarcasm* detector. Oh, that’s a *really* useful invention!
77. Marge: Our differences are only skin deep, but our sames go down to the bone.
78. Homer: What’s the point of going out? We’re just going to wind up back here anyway.
79. Marge: Get ready, skanks! It’s time for the truth train!
80. Bill Gates: I didn’t get rich by signing checks.
81. Principal Skinner: Fire can be our friend; whether it’s toasting marshmallows or raining down on Charlie.
82. Homer: Oh, I’m in no condition to drive. Wait a minute. I don’t have to listen to myself. I’m drunk.
83. Homer: And here I am using my own lungs like a sucker.
84. Comic Book Guy: Human contact: the final frontier.
85. Homer: I hope I didn’t brain my damage.
86. Krusty the Clown: And now, in the spirit of the season: start shopping. And for every dollar of Krusty merchandise you buy, I will be nice to a sick kid. For legal purposes, sick kids may include hookers with a cold.
87. Homer: I’m a Spalding Gray in a Rick Dees world.
88. Dr. Nick: Inflammable means flammable? What a country.
89. Homer: Beer. Now there’s a temporary solution.
90. Comic Book Guy: Stan Lee never left. I’m afraid his mind is no longer in mint condition.
91. Nelson: Shoplifting is a victimless crime. Like punching someone in the dark.
92. Krusty the Clown: Kids, we need to talk for a moment about Krusty Brand Chew Goo Gum Like Substance. We all knew it contained spider eggs, but the hantavirus? That came out of left field. So if you’re experiencing numbness and/or comas, send five dollars to antidote, PO box…
93. Milhouse: I can’t go to juvie. They use guys like me as currency.
94. Homer: Son, when you participate in sporting events, it’s not whether you win or lose: it’s how drunk you get.
95. Homer: I like my beer cold, my TV loud and my homosexuals flaming.
96. Apu: Thank you, steal again.
97. Homer: Marge, you being a cop makes you the man! Which makes me the woman — and I have no interest in that, besides occasionally wearing the underwear, which as we discussed, is strictly a comfort thing.
98. Ed Begley Jr.: I prefer a vehicle that doesn’t hurt Mother Earth. It’s a go-cart, powered by my own sense of self-satisfaction.
99. Bart: I didn’t think it was physically possible, but this both sucks *and* blows.
100. Homer: How could you?! Haven’t you learned anything from that guy who gives those sermons at church? Captain Whatshisname? We live in a society of laws! Why do you think I took you to all those Police Academy movies? For fun? Well, I didn’t hear anybody laughing, did you? Except at that guy who made sound effects. Makes sound effects and laughs. Where was I? Oh yeah! Stay out of my booze.
101. Homer: Lisa, vampires are make-believe, like elves, gremlins, and Eskimos.

[RockinRight]

Reverend Lovejoy: Marge, just about everything’s a sin. [holds up a Bible] Y’ever sat down and read this thing? Technically we’re not supposed to go to the bathroom.

Sounds like something Huckabee would say.

[mountainbunny]

My fellow Americans. As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball, but tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward, upward not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom

Kodos as Bill Clinton, "Treehouse of Horror VII"

I always laugh at this quote because it is the very epitome of empty political rhetoric.

[zeugma]

How could have a hundred and one Simpsons quotes, and no mention whatsoever of cheese-eating surrender monkeys?

[tet68]

Mr. Burns: What good is money if it can’t inspire terror in your fellow man?

Let me paraphrase that,

What good is being the most powerful nation on earth if any raghead can come up and kick sand in your face while you PAY
for his existance.

[tet68]

My personal fave.

Principal Skinner: Fire can be our friend; whether it’s toasting marshmallows or raining down on Charlie.
(or Achmed.)

Mr. Burns: What good is money if it can’t inspire terror in your fellow man?

To Paraphrase,

What good is being the most powerful nation on earth if any
two bit raghead can kick sand in your face, while at the same time you are PAYING for his subsistance.

And for my godless socialist cuz.

Sideshow Bob: Your guilty consciences may make you vote Democratic, but secretly you all yearn for a Republican president to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king!

[zeugma]

Of course, Douglas Adams had something to say about the same subject...

---

[An extraterrestrial robot and spaceship has just landed on earth. The robot steps out of the spaceship...]

"I come in peace," it said, adding after a long moment of further grinding, "take me to your Lizard."

Ford Prefect, of course, had an explanation for this, as he sat with Arthur and watched the nonstop frenetic news reports on television, none of which had anything to say other than to record that the thing had done this amount of damage which was valued at that amount of billions of pounds and had killed this totally other number of people, and then say it again, because the robot was doing nothing more than standing there, swaying very slightly, and emitting short incomprehensible error messages.

"It comes from a very ancient democracy, you see..."

"You mean, it comes from a world of lizards?"

"No," said Ford, who by this time was a little more rational and coherent than he had been, having finally had the coffee forced down him, "nothing so simple. Nothing anything like to straightforward. On its world, the people are people. The leaders are lizards. The people hate the lizards and the lizards rule the people."

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."

"I did," said ford. "It is."

"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"

"It honestly doesn't occur to them," said Ford. "They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates to the government they want."

"You mean they actually vote for the lizards?"

"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."

"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"

"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard," said Ford, "the wrong lizard might get in. Got any gin?"

"What?"

"I said," said Ford, with an increasing air of urgency creeping into his voice, "have you got any gin?"

"I'll look. Tell me about the lizards."

Ford shrugged again.

"Some people say that the lizards are the best thing that ever happened to them," he said. "They're completely wrong of course, completely and utterly wrong, but someone's got to say it."

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

And who didn’t laugh at Homer scraping his entire, naked front side - monty and all - up the ceiling on the Crystal cathedral!

[mc5cents]

Whoa L.N.! You have to learn to lighten up! The sarcasm light is on with the Simpsons. You are imputing seriousness where there is none. If you can’t laugh at yourself then you are taking yourself and others way too seriously.

[happinesswithoutpeace]

The Politics of Failure Have Failed. We Must Make Them Work A-gain!

[Leisler]

So I suppose a lost three day weekend in Reno is out of the question?

[L.N. Smithee]

Whoa L.N.! You have to learn to lighten up! The sarcasm light is on with the Simpsons. You are imputing seriousness where there is none. If you can’t laugh at yourself then you are taking yourself and others way too seriously.

I knew this was coming.

Every time I object to the content of entertainment that most people don't find objectionable (The Sopranos, Scarface, Lolita, The Godfather movies, South Park, Family Guy, Howard Stern, etc.) somebody suggests that I either don't have a sense of humor, ought to "lighten up," or "get laid." It's tiresome, and more importantly, it's arrogant. I didn't tell anybody that they should be offended, I simply outlined the reasons why I am.

Now, regarding The Simpsons: Matt Groening doesn't like conservatives and promotes the homosexual agenda. I knew that before he had conceived of The Simpsons. The targets of the sarcasm and satire are either people I agree with or issues I believe are important 95% of the time.

It's not even close to balanced. Sure, there are the slaps at Kennedy or Clinton for being horndogs -- that's easy. But when Sideshow Bob says schtuff about Republicans wanting to kill children or that they want "a leader that will rule you like a king," there will be no similar references about leftists' fetish for collectivism, and its well-known but rarely-spoken dangers. And don't think the kids don't pick up on the leftist bias of Simpsons writing.

You might as well scold me for not watching CNN.

[RabidBartender]

Lisa: I don't think anyone in this family could be capable of murder.
Grampa: You never know what people are capable of. I never thought I could shoot down a German plane. But last year, I proved myself wrong.

Grampa: Look what your bad egg of a son did to my teeth!
Homer: [rolling eyes] Dad, you and your stories. "Bart broke my teeth," "The nurses are stealing my money," "This thing on my neck is getting bigger."

Homer: If you don't start making more sense, we're going to have to put you in a home.
Grampa: You already put me in a home.
Homer: Then we'll put you in the crooked home we saw on 60 Minutes.
Grampa: [cowering] I'll be good.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

What a great thread! Ping for tagline selection.

[Borges]

The Simpsons is one of the only modern shows that actually made fun of liberals and has devoutly Christian characters who aren’t murderers of pedophiles. If you can’t laugh at yourself occasionally that’s another issue. What’s your objection to The Godfather and Lolita (book?) anyway? Both are morality tales about people losing their soul.

[Borges]

‘murderers or pedophiles’

[BlueNgold]

Bart is under-represented - as is Millhouse.

[Rightly Biased]

[Zionist Conspirator]

I haven't watched "Simpsons" in a long time (since the "gay" wedding episode), but it used to be one of my favorites, and I have lots of favorite quotes which I can't reproduce exactly and which I'm surprised haven't been quoted already.

Car: "Hello. I'm the new electric car. I can't go very fast and very far, and everyone who sees you driving me will think you're gay."
Animatronic "gay" robots: "One of us! One of us!"

Then there's the "adult education" ep where Homer is at the school at night just outside the door of a classroom and a hip Black guy gives him a speech in "Snoopese" about what they're teaching inside. He goes in and some dignified old white lady is teaching literature or something. When Homer complains that he's been misled she says something along the lines of "Are you saying that my husband would lie? Why, I should bust a cap in your @$$!"

Perhaps my favorite line is from the episode where Homer thinks he's killed an old woman and it turns out to be a "reality" show (the "old woman" is alive and was actually portrayed by some airheaded celebrity). Anyway, Homer and Marge are on the run and Oscar the bus driver is giving tours to the home of the notorious couple: "Or as we call them, H. Diddy . . . and his murder ho'!" Hilarious!
