Homer confusing the home owner bill for being the homer bill. It's a joke so specific to his character that there couldn't be another to make that same joke without being a complete copy.
I liked the part early on when the front door stuck a little and needed to be closed a bit harder. It doesn't come up all the time but I could sympathize the few times it did.
>"I knew the dog BEFORE he came to class."
i understand this line completely, and i don't think i have adequate words to explain why i feel it in my soul. it's such a specific brag, based on unpopularity and reflected glory and wanting to be acknowledged for something.
Not so much a joke but rewatching Bart on the Road, Homer pooring soda on the nuclear control panel then he begins running his finger along the lid and flicking the rest of the Soda on the console.
The little detail really stuck with me.
For me it's >I don't know what you did to him but he hasn't been the same since he got back >Cut to Sad Jesus on a Swingset
>>I don't know what you did to him but he hasn't been the same since he got back >>Cut to Sad Jesus on a Swingset
lol
I forgot that one. I think of it often but couldn't for the frick of me remember where it came from. Guess it was Simpsons.
It reminds of a dumb joke I once heard about a israeli delinquent kid who wins up in a Catholic school and starts to turn his life around and become a model student. When his very israeli father asked him why he's suddenly behaving and doing well in school, the kid looks traumatised and says >dad, have you ever heard of this Jesus guy? they said he was the best, nicest person ever and they still killed him so I'm trying to be good!
>what has four legs and ticks >a walking clock? >A WALKING CLOCK! >I'd wager he has some variety of walking clock in that box! >bart is it a walking clock? >what? no its my dog.
Funny bait. It is weird to think that The Simpsons existed for two years as a short made for the Tracy Ullman show. Tracy Ullman herself seems forgotten these days, but I remember my mom talking about her show back when I was a kid.
If there's a most underrated joke, maybe it's one from the shorts. People rarely talk about them, but they could be pretty good.
The Simpsons shorts were soooo Dennis the Menace. They weren’t bad but they weren’t clever like the show either. They were very simple set up gag punchline type shorts and maybe Bart would say damn and Lisa calls her father Homer for shock value.
>Tracy Ullman herself seems forgotten these days
She's remembered, but only as a piece of trivia about where The Simpsons came from.
>If there's a most underrated joke, maybe it's one from the shorts
Its baffling to me that they have never officially released the shorts on any home media.
sneed
the one where Bart raped Millhouse
Homer saying failed abortion was pretty sweet too
The one where lisa became president

I'm so glad you said this, because I feel the same every time I see it. it's definitely something a kid would bring up in that situation
Jesus being tossed in the air on a blanket after "going native" in Catholic heaven.
Either that or "cartoons don't have to be 100% realistic."

I remember laughing so hard, everything hurt, my lungs, my face. I had tears running down my face.
Ayn Rand's School for Tots
Just the idea of Ayn Rand of all fricking people to have a preschool named after them was fricking hysterical to me.
>what has four legs and ticks
>a walking clock?
>A WALKING CLOCK!
>I'd wager he has some variety of walking clock in that box!
>bart is it a walking clock?
>what? no its my dog.
>Now Bart I know you can read my mind
Smart Homer trying to come up with a flat tax proposal and instead proving God doesn't exist
Does anybody else actually kinda miss the Graggle episodes?
Lisa, who wasn't present in the scene before, turning around in the chair and jumpscaring Homer
the scene prior when he tosses his book on the fire is probably the best example of simpsons joke timing that I miss
>I'm seeing double here! FOUR KRUSTYS!
the joke requires an astute observation to truly understand, and the witty banter following this was quite hysterical.
what? it was a spinoff from Futurama, only set in contemporary America instead of the year 3000

>So what you're saying is, I'm indestructible
>Why no, even a slight breeze
>Indestructible

Barts People
Bonus points for being a zombies Simpson episode
>there's no maybe about it, sir
That part got me
Life in Hell was better anyways
No it wasn't, Matt Groening is a hack
Hired Goons? its mostly cause of the way Homer says that.
