300 Episodes of the Simpsons
circletimessquare writes "As we approach 300 Episodes of the Simpsons, Entertainment Weekly tries to pick the 25 best episodes of The Simpsons (and the one episode they consider the worst). They do a pretty good job. But since "best of" lists like this one are always rife with debate and contention, I can't think of a better place than Slashdot to send up EW (pun partially intended)."
Homer: "OK, no more deer for a week"
Marge: " Homer, did you say deer or beer?"
Homer: "Deer."
"Want in one hand and spit in the other and see which one fills up first." - My Dad
I haven't looked at their picks yet, but I know the best episode ever.
The halloween special with the shinning. It's got 3 super hilarious quotes and is overall the best episode ever.
"no beer no tv make homer something something"
"shhhh, you wanna get suuuued?"
"that's willy's time!"
The GeekNights podcast is going strong. Listen!
CBG: "Immediately after reading the 25 best episodes I was on the Internet registering my disgust and complaints."
Bart: "But they provide you with free and quality content!"
CBG: "Worst. Top 25 list. ever."
hmmm ... seen the list, and while I agree with some (Mr Plow, Monorail, Homer Badman) it misses out some of my all-time favourites
...
Deep Space Homer
the one where Homer gets fat to work from home
the episode where Bart wins the elephant
any episode where Barney is sober
and now for some classic simpsons quotes (all atributed to Homer of course - who else!):
"I'm a white male, aged 18 to 49. *Everybody* cares what I think!"
"Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try."
"I know I'm not usually a praying man, but if you're up there, Please Superman help me!"
"Homer no function beer well without."
"Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel."
"To alcohol - the cause of, and solution to all of life's problems."
and my all-time favourite
"Maybe for once, someone will call me 'sir' without adding 'You're making a scene'." - Homer J Simpson
"Because it's there." - George Mallory, when asked why he wanted to climb Mt Everest, March 18, 1923 (New York Times)
"Worst Episode Ever"
"Ask not what your country can do for you." --John F. Kennedy
Easily my favorite, if for just some of the lines:
"In this house we obey they laws of thermodynamics"
"I'll have no more of your Vasser bashing young lady."
"I guess I'll just have to go hide in the crawl space"
"I hate it when he does that."
"There's just something so unwholesome about flying a kite at night."
I demand a million helicopters and a DOLLAR!
Save me Jeebus! Save me!
Karma: The shiznight, mostly because I am the Drizzle.
The fact that The Simpsons is getting hype from Entertainment Weekly further proves this show lost its satrical bite (and relevance) a LONG time ago.
Homer: Doh!
:-)
Lisa: A deer!
Marge: A female deer!
Perfect! Just perfect!
Homer:
"Welcome to the Internet, my friend.
How can I help you ? "
customer:
" I am interested in upgrading my 28.8 KBaud
Internet connection to a 1.5 MBit fiber optic T1 line.
Will you be able to provide an IP router, that's
compatible with my TokenRing Ethernet LAN
configuration ? "
(pause)
Homer: Can i have some money now?
Open Source Java Web Forum with LDAP authentication
That has THE best quote, IMO. (from snpp):
Man: But presidente, America tried to kill you!
Fidel Castro: Ah, they're not so bad. They even named a street after me in San Francisco!
Man 2: [whispers in Castro's ear]
Fidel Castro: It's full of what?!
