This fan art based on a moment in an old episode of The Simpsons when Ralph Wiggum calls Superintendent Chalmers “Super Nintendo Chalmers,” which is incidentally one of my Top Two Favorite Simpsons Jokes of All Time (the other Top Two Joke being when Homer Simpson says that holding a gun makes him “feel like how God must feel. When He holds a gun”), and this coming right after yesterday’s Caption Contest fan art of the “real” Simpsons makes me realize that we’ve never had an Open Thread for people to share their favorite Simpsons quotes, so we might as well get that out of the way and then MOVE ON WITH OUR LIVES AND NEVER LOOK BACK. We’re better than this. Or at least, after this we will be better than this. It’s awful when people won’t stop quoting their favorite jokes from The Simpsons, but it’s just the world we live in. Better to get it out of our systems once and for all than to lie to ourselves and pretend like this isn’t a thing we would all do and are about to do right now. (Image via TheDailyWhat.)

The Simpsons have raised me.
Ok, fine.

when marge took up gambling and homer had to make that god-awful florida costume.
“you made her cry. then I cried. then maggie laughed — she’s such a little trooper.”
and basically everything from the carny episode.
Pretty much the entire King-Size Homer episode…
Operator: “The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To obtain a special dialing wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now.”
…
Dr. Nick: “Well…be creative. Instead of making sandwiches with bread, use poptarts. Instead of chewing gum, chew bacon…”
Bart: “You could brush your teeth with milkshakes!”
Dr. Nick: “Hey, did you go to Hollywood Upstairs Medical College too? And remember, if you’re not sure about something, rub it against a piece of paper. If the paper turns clear, it’s your window to weight gain. Bye bye, everybody!”
Sir, our seats cannot accommodate a person of your particular…carriage.

Super Nintendo Chalmers: Why is there smoke coming out of your oven?

‘Don’t do what Donny Don’t does.’ They could have made this clearer.

Conan made that
The ring came off my pudding cap!
Take my pen knife, my good man!
“Wow. Now I have 4 children. You will be called Stitchface.” – Homer to a football
My eyes! The goggles do nothing!
When I was a kid I used to always quote the last Grandpa line in appropriate situations:
Abe: All right, I admit it: I am the Lindbergh baby. Waah! Waah! Goo goo. I miss my fly-fly dada.
Friday: Are you trying to stall us, or are you just senile?
Abe: A little from column A, a little from column B.
I am still known to use this column A/B thing, as recently as today. I am aware that the construction predates the Simpsons, but it’s because of Abe Simpson that I say it.

Bart: Hello, Mr. …Kurns. I bad want…money now. Me sick.

Two lines never get old for me:
1) Bart daydreams that he grows up and becomes a morbidly obese man and reveals to reporters from this bedside: “I wash myself with a rag on a stick.”
2) Moe takes a shot at stand-up: “How you folks doin’? I’m Moe, or as the ladies like to call me, ‘Hey you! Behind the bushes!”
“I’ve got three kids and no money. Why can’t I have no kids and three money?” – Homer
Homer: Butter that bacon, boy…..now, bacon that sausage!
May I also say without any hint of hyperbole that this is the greatest thread in the history of not just Videogum, but the entire internet.
Lionel Hutz: Homer, I don’t use the word hero very often, but you are the greatest hero in American history.
Ladies and gentlemen, I’ve been to Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and I can say without hyperbole that this is a million times worse than all of them put together. ~ Kent Brockman

Bart: “Do you think they were involved in the Kennedy assassination?”
Homer: “I do… now.”
(Homer playing Lisa’s saxophone): Saxomaphone! Saxomaphone!!!!
Children are the future. Today belongs to me.
Principal Skinner: When I was a little boy I discovered a comet, but the credit was stolen from me. If only I had not told my discovery to Principal Kouhoutek!
Also from the same episode and probably one of the funnies exchanges in the show between multiple characters:
Moe: Hey, uh, I got an idea. We can play a game to pass the time. Er, I’ll make the sound of a barnyard animal, and, er, you all try to guess what it is. Ahem. (Makes some unidentifiable noise)
Chief Wiggum: It’s a pig!
Bart: It’s a cow, man.
Lisa: It’s a pony.
Krusty the Clown: No, it’s a goat. You know, one of them lady goats.
Selma: There are no lady goats! A lady goat is a sheep.
Dr. Hibbert: I believe she’s right.
Otto: You’re crazy.
Captain McCallister: Arr, what’s it to you?
Otto: What’s it to me?
(Everyone starts arguing)
Marge: Stop it! Stop it! Can’t you see this barnyard noise guessing game is tearing us apart? (Pause) Say, Moe, was it a duck?
(Everyone argues again)
Homer: Shut up! Shut up! Stop it! Stop it. I can’t take this any more. I can’t let that brave man out there die alone. I’m surprised and disgusted by all of you, especially his children. I’m going out there! (Pause) It was a baby ox.
Lisa: I can’t believe that extra-thick layer of pollution that I’ve actually picketed against burned up the comet.
Bart: But what’s really amazing, is that this is exactly what Dad said would happen.
Lisa: Yeah, Dad was right.
Homer: I know, kids. I’m scared too!
Burlesque house woman: “Are you wearing a grocery bag?”
Homer: “I have misplaced my pants”
“Hit any key….hmmm….where’s the ‘any’ key. I see ‘alt’ and ‘ctrl’….but no any key!”
Wait a minute! I’m a guy like me!
You don’t make friends with salad.

Lisa: “There’s enough gazpacho for everyone!”
(everyone laughs)

“I’m a level 5 vegan. I don’t eat anything that casts a shadow.”
Homer: Hey! [grabs it, stomps on it] I saved your life! That egg sandwich could have killed you by cholesterol.
Lenny: Pfft, forget it, Homer. While it has been established that eggs contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human blood stream.
Homer: So one of those Egg Council creeps got to you too, huh?
Lenny: Aw, you’ve got it all wrong, Homer. It’s not like that.
[a man in an egg costume creeps, then runs, away]
Homer: You’d better run, egg!
Comic Book Guy: “Last night’s Itchy & Scratchy was, without a doubt, the worst episode ever. Rest assured I was on the internet within minutes registering my disgust throughout the world.”

Moe: No!
(BUZZ!)
Moe: Okay, maybe I did, but I didn’t shoot him!
(DING!)
Eddie: Checks out. Okay, sir, you’re free to go.
Moe: Good, ’cause I’ve got a hot date tonight! (BUZZ!) Odd date. (BUZZ!) Dinner with friends. (BUZZ!) Dinner alone. (BUZZ!) Watching TV alone. (BUZZ!) Alright! I’m just 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!)
Sorry what is this i dont even, I used the same quote as you, clearly fifteen minutes after you posted this one. My apologies and moe is the best.
Groundskeeper Willie, looking at Selma(or Pattie?)’s video dating tape: “Eulch! Back to tha Loch wit yew, Nessie!”
The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side.

This article reminded me in 2006 to start using “Everything’s coming up Milhouse!” in casual conversation. The four years since have been a blur of money, fame, and beautiful women.
Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath. At night, the ice weasels come. – Matt Groening
Dr. Nick: Inflammable means flammable? What a country!
Homer, to Bart: Well, crying isn’t gonna bring him back…unless your tears smell like dog food. So you can either sit there crying and eating can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food to make your dog come back or you can go out there and find your dog.
Also, Ned’s parents: We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas! (Reminds me of co-workers, family, etc.)
BART: Why are you always trying to get me to take a potato to school for Show-And-Tell?
MARGE: I just think they’re neat.
This anonymous clan of slack-jawed troglodytes has cost me the election, and yet if I were to have them killed, I would be the one to go to jail. That’s democracy for you.
Manager: This gentleman here can write better fortunes than
all of you put together. [to Homer] Show them.
Homer: Okay, let’s see … um, The price of stamps will
climb ever higher.
[the writers murmur appreciatively]
Woody: That is … he’s like a young me.
Writer: Please, Young Mi was a hack compared to this guy.
Just once I’d like for someone to call me “sir” without adding, “You’re making a scene”.

Homer: Hola senor! We are gringo and wish to spend mucho dinero in your country.
Border Patrol: Splendid! Welcome to Canada!
Homer: D’OH!
Mil gracias!
I love it too when Homer and Marge are at the exclusive preschool interviewing with Maggie, and the director says that there are scholarships for international students, and Homer says, “Excelante, muchas gracias señorata!”
Also a great one! How about some Bumblebee Man?
“¡Ay, Dios no me ama!”
ay, el gato malodoro!
I used to be with it, but then they changed what “it” was. Now, what I’m with isn’t it, and what’s “it” seems weird and scary to me.

Lord, I know I shouldn’t eat Thee…
Homer: My name is Mr. Burns. I believe you might have some mail for me?
Mail clerk: Certainly. What’s the first name?
Homer:… I …don’t… know.
Beat me by a refresh button!
“It doesn’t matter how you feel inside, you know. It’s what shows up on the outside that counts. Take all your bad feelings and push them down, all the way down past your knees, until you’re almost walking on them. And then you’ll fit in, and you’ll be invited to parties, and boys will like you. And happiness will follow.”
Wiggum, at the chili cookoff:
“That Simpson thinks he’s the Pope of Chilitown.”
(Popes of Chilitown was the name of my fantasy baseball team for many years after that.)
Milhouse sticks a straw in the all-syrup Squishie: “It’s so thick!”
Just the way he says it, I lose it.
“…And all this time, I was smoking HARMLESS tobacco!” – Burns, revealing his true self to the Greenpeace group he infiltrated
“This brown patch over here needs a little H-2-OH YEAH!” – Duffman, watering his lawn
“But Duffman, you said that if I slept with you you’d put me on the TV show!”
“…Duffman says a lot of things.”
Whenever I’m about to have dinner and something was forgotten in the kitchen I always say “slivered almonds for the green beans!”
Homer: Hello, my name is Mr. Burns. I believe you have a letter for me.
Clerk: Okay, Mr. Burns–what’s your first name?
(pause)

Old man: “Nay”
Homer: Who keeps saying that?”
Old man: “It was him. Get him fellows!”
Millhouse: Remember that time your dog ate my goldfish, but you told me I never had a goldfish? But why’d I have the bowl Bart? Why’d I have the bowl?”
Moe: “he’s right ya know…”
Skinner (?): “About the baby ox?”
Moe: About everything damnit!”
Homer: “Oh, yeah, what are you gonna do? Release the dogs? Or the bees? Or the dogs with bees in their mouth and when they bark, they shoot bees at you?”
I was raised on TV and I turned out TV.
Flanders’ parents: “We’ve tried nothin’ and we’re all outta ideas!”
