I'm a person who really watches the Simpsons. If you don't know what it is, google it. I believe that someone here is making a game based on the Simpsons. Anyway, what is your favorite quote from the Simpsons? Mine is (this what Homer read from that old myth book):
Quote
...........
Homer: (Ghostly voice) Bart......I have come back from the dead........
Bart: It looks like you have come back from the buffet.
Homer: Why you little! (Tries to strangle Bart but can't because he is a ghost)
Bart: Haha....
...........
"Marge, it takes two to lie. One to lie and one to listen."
If you really want to read a lot of Simpsons quotes, just search for them instead of asking in a forum.. http://www.google.com/search?q=simpsons+quotes&sourceid=firefox&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
"Ooh, I think I brained my damage!" - Homer, while tripping after eating a Guetamalan Death Pepper
I wanted to know which one is your favorite.
Impossible to find a favourite as ther are so many, but here's a good one.
"Mayor Quimby supports revolving-door prisons. Mayor Quimby even released Sideshow Bob, a man twice convicted of attempted murder. Can you trust a man like Mayor Quimby? Vote Sideshow Bob for Mayor."
One of my favorites was between Ralph and Bart in the LOTF parody.
"I ate the purple berries... Ooo...Oww..."
"How are they Ralph? Good?"
"They taste like... Burning!"
I really love the one where the kids are drawing stuff in school, and the teacher looks at Ralph's desk, and then says: "Ralph.. Jesus did not have wheels.."
well this has to be a classic:
"D'oh!!!"
But this one has to be my faworite:
"You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is 'never try'."
I did not see Simpsons for quite a long time. Well, I believe they released it in Polish TV only once...
But I remember a journalist saying about 15th anniversary of Springfield's tire factory burning and in the background the factory still burning.
And one more:
Woman:"This is a lie detector. It will determine whether yo are saying truth or not. I will now aks you simple question and want you to answer truthfully. Do you understand?"
Homer:"Yes!"
*BOOM* (lie detector blows into pieces)
Yep, there are too many. Hundreds of "favourites", you can't possibly pick one if you're someone who's seen it all. Well, I guess you can but I think it'd be difficult and pointless ^_^
Here's a couple off the top of my head though:
Bart: Still just a potato.
Mr Burns: Out of my way! I'm a motorist!
Tracked down via the magic of Google's computer-wizardry (tm):
Chalmers: Good lord, what is happening in there?
Seymour: Aurora Borealis?
Chalmers: Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within your kitchen?
Skinner: Yes!
Chalmers: ...May I see it?
Skinner: No.
Bart: What do you care about good comics? All you ever buy is Casper the Wimpy Ghost.
Lisa: I think it's sad that you equate friendliness with wimpiness, and I hope it'll keep you from ever achieving true popularity.
Bart: Well, you know what I think? I think Casper is the ghost of
Richie Rich.
Lisa: Hey, they do look alike!
Bart: Wonder how Richie died.
Lisa: Perhaps he realized how hollow the pursuit of money really is and took his own life.
*COUGH* http://www.angelfire.com/il/simpsonsfun/images/lie.wav *COUGH*
One of my favourites too, Haddas.
Let's see....
"I've wasted my life"
-Comic Book Guy, seconds before being hit by a Intel Inside-powered French nuke.
But it's all good.
we'll get you for that. . . especially the purple monkey dishwasher remark!" - Edna
"April Foo-"
Speaking of lie detectors, Moe's one kicks arse
"
Eddie: Do you hold a grudge against Montgomery Burns?
Moe: No! (buzz)
Alright, maybe I did, but I didn't shoot him. (ding)
Eddie: Checks out. Okay, sir, you're free to go.
Moe: Good, 'cause I got a hot date tonight. (buzz)
A date. (buzz)
Dinner with a friend. (buzz)
Dinner alone. (buzz)
Watching TV alone. (buzz)
Alright! I'm going to sit at home and ogle the ladies in the Victoria's Secret catalog. (buzz)
Sears catalog. (ding)
Now would you unhook this already, please?! I don't deserve this kind of shabby treatment! (buzz)
"
Heh, that IS the one that Haddas posted, but yeah, there was another one along the lines of:
Sullder (I can never remember which is which): This machine you are hooked up to will monitor your breathing & heart rate to see whether you are lying to us or not. Do you understand?
Homer: Yes. *machine explodes*
Well......that first part is nowhere near what it should be, but you get the general gist of it.
you mean the one that lelev posted just a few posts up?Ã, ::)
since i stopped watching the simpsons past their 11th-12th season (around when Maude left the show) I can definitly say my favorite episodes are Homer vs. New York, and the Trillion Dollar Bill episode, both filled with great lines.
(I also thought the April Foo-..... line was great too.
How about when they were relocated under civilian protection:
FBI: "(To Homer)Alright, we'll try this one more time. When I say, 'Hello, Mr. Thompson' and step on your foot, you say, 'Hello.".
FBI: "Hello, Mr. Thompson. (stomps on Homers foot)
(Homer looks confused)
Homer: (turns to other FBI Agent) "I think he's talking to you."
During the tax episode/Trillion dollar bill:
FBI Agent1: We're going to send you away to jail for tax fraud!
Homer: "Noooo"(goes on to say about how its not as good as it is in the movies)
FBI Agent2: We can make all your tax problems go away, if you do a little job for us.
Homer: "Okay, but can you pay me under the table, (whisper) I kinda have a little tax problem."
To netmonkey below, yes that is a pure classic...
Homer: I don't know.
Homer: (Later, on the steps of the post office) Good plan, Bart!(miffed)
A classic:
QuoteHomer: Hello, my name is Mr. Burns. I believe you have a package for me.
Clerk: Ok, Mr. Burns. What's your first name?
Homer: ...I don't know.

you mean the one that lelev posted just a few posts up? ::)
Heh, how ironic, I do apologise lelev.
Another one of my favorites is:
When Bart is emancipated from his family because of Homer:
Quote
Marge: Oh, Bart, can't you stay? I'll let you say swear words, but not the top three.
Bart: Sorry Mom, I can't, not unless he's here. (Points to Homer peeking behind the window and Homer ducks down)
Marge: (Hugs Bart)
Taxi guy: Either give me some of that or lets get going.
Bart: (Goes onto taxi and the taxi leaves)
Homer: (Runs out to the street) Oh, you'll come crawling back. (Crawls himself) Oh, he really is gone! (Starts to sob)
(Sign posts go around him saying sobbing man at night)
"You'll have to speak up, I'm not wearing any pants."
and on the episode where Marge goes off to a relaxing spa....
Woman:"[probably wrong]and I caught your son... (she looks down and sees Homer wearing a paper bag) Mr. Simpson, are you wearing a paper bag?"
Homer: "(very dignified) I have misplaced my pants"
Ralph: "Me fail English. That's unpossible."
Homer: "Me lose brain? Uh, oh! Ha ha ha! Why I laugh?"
Bart:Ã, "Heh heh, nice doin business with ya chummmmmmmmmmmm-p."
Favorite qoute o' all:
[Burns]: Well well, it looks as though the catapillar has emerged from the cacoon, as shark..with a gun for its mouth.
Oh..and this one...
*Homer throws pudding at Lenny
[Lenny]:Ah! My eye! I'm not supposed to get pudding in it!
Today I remembered another old favorite when my little sister had a nosebleed.
Ralph to Lisa - "The doctor said my nose would quit bleeding if I'd just keep my finger out of there."
Scummbuddy: Sorry to correct you but I love that quote too :P
" You'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel!"
I'm just DYING to use it one day when someone calls me while I'm in the shower.
That's not me! - rulez.
Homer: Why you little!!! >:(
Bart: ahaghaghagah
Too many for one favourite, but heres a shortlist.
FAVOURITE:
Comic Book Guy: AH! THERE IS NO EMOTICON FOR WHAT I'M FEELING!!
Lessers which I felt deserved a mention:
From the one with Funzo
Moe: We could try selling liquor, I'm doing GREAT at it!
Skinner: Good lord man, put on some shoes!
Moe: What, you don't like my bags? (hes wearing bread bags)
From "Mr Plow"
(throughout the camera slowly turns, until it is on it's side)
Adam West: I didn't need moulded plastic to improve my phisique!
(taps chest) Pure West.
And how come Batman doesn't DANCE anymore?
Remember the Bastusi?
(Does little dance) Woop ow yeah saa!
At the end of the funzo episode:
Narator: ...and More removed his head from the oven, and replaced it with a plump Christmas goose...
mister flibble reminded me of one realy good quote.
COMIC BOOK GUY (right after being thrown out of a convention or something I can't remember): "What's the clingon word for ouch?"
look's it up in dictionary: "oh jeah!" then he mumbles something and fals in to a comma...
I can't remember half of that quote but me and my frends were so amused by it that we even made up words acting like the guy.
Homer - "Lisa, wheres christmans?
Jahovas witness man - Do you think what we do annoys people
Jahovas witness woman - i think so, lets stop and get real jobs
Marge: Last night some Jehova's witnesses came by and I wouldn't let them leave. They snuck out when I went to get more lemonade.
(Homie The Clown)
Homer:Marge....
Marge: Yes Homie? (sings circus music)
Thank you Kinoko. I merged both things to get a wrong quote of my two.
Lisa: "Well, by your logic, we could say that this rock keeps away bears. I don't see any bears around, therefor, it keeps the bears away."
Homer: (contemplates this new idea) "Lisa, I'd like to buy your rock."

It was out of Moe's tavern..when Homer took him..sorry for the random-ness
"I heard your father went to a restaurant, and he ate everything in the restaurant, and they had to close the restaurant." - Ralph
"Bart, you're no longer in church, stop swearing." - Marge
(driving wildly through the park and hitting a prettily cut hedge)
Homer: D'oh!
Marge: A deer!
Lisa: A female deer.
My favourite:
German Guy: I remind you mister Burns, we Germans are not all smiles Und sunshine.
On a different note, does anybody realise that the Simpsons has lost it's charm?, it used to be great, but somewhere around 1998 it just wasn't as funny anymore, I think the quotes speak for themselves.
yeah, we talked to death about how the simpsons went downhill. most notibly were its key writers leaving, and their replacements were subpar. Conan O'Brien, one of my favorite past writers is busy with his own fabulous show. Soon he will have the true late night spot and it is well deserved.
I stopped watching the simpsons when it just became "Homer Does This" episodes and "Homer meets [insert celebrity name]" (around the time of Maude being killed) that just became too much. Almost like they sold out. I've heard that like the past 2 seasons they hired a couple old writers back, but it hasn't had the same. I watched the superbowl episode that just aired... i laughed two times the whole episode. one was a quiet short laugh, one was fairly long, but again, its such a waste of what the simpsons used to be.
Some of the jokes in the later episodes are okay:
Mayor of Alberquiqe: Get me the Dallas Cowboys!
Secretary: Thats a football team, sir.
Mayor: Oh they'll play what I tell 'em to play... for I AM THE MAYOR OF ALBERQUIQUE!!
: But I don't watch the simpsons anymore because the plots just don't add up. And they don't make sense.
I just watch South Park these days.
Me and my friends all love Duff Man and do impressions of him all the time lol
best quote of duff Man is
"DuffMan says alot of things"
"DuffMan cant breathe! Oooh no!"

They're only finally catching up with season thirteen and fourteen here, I think, but I feel myself starting to agree on this issue. Last night's episode where Skinner proposed to Krabapple just felt out of character. I never realized there was a change in the writing staff (though it would make sense in fifteen years' time...)
Thats the point i was trying to make too... Yeah, Bart is doing stuff out of character, as well as so many other cast members. Not all the time, but as soon as they do, I feel assaulted, and lose particular interest in the current show. It may take me minutes to get back into it.
Homer singing:
Cleaning my gun with the safety off,
safety off,
safety off,
Cleaning my gun with the safety- <BANG!>
Also:
Stealing, stealing, stealing a car for Moe,
Doo-doo d-doo d-doo doo,
Insurance fraud today!
They don't really work without the tunes...
Fishing, nana nananana nana fishing
a-wimo-way, a-wimo-way, a-wimo-way, a-wimo-way,-homer while gambling
Troy McClure: "Don't kid yourself, Billy. If he thought he could get away with it, a cow would kill you and everyone you care about."
A close second would be just about anything Grounds Keeper Willie has ever said.
"Lunch Lady Doris, do you have any grease? ... Then grease me up, woman!"
-Ponch
The helloween episode for the 2nd or 3rd season:
TV! Teacher. Mother. Secret lover...
you are absolutely right about the plots not making sense, but I believe that I can pin that down easily. The whole bottom just fell out of the series after permanent changes were made, namely Maud Flanders' death, it developed into the charachters being typecast as their common traits i.e. Lisa's intellect (she doesn't come across as a child anymore) Marge's housewife activities etc.
The real problem with the simpsons these days is unneccesary changes that are irreversible.
