Marge, don’t discourage the boy! Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It’s what separates us from the animals! Except the weasel.

M: Homer, just because someone asks you to join a freak show, it doesn’t mean you have to do it!  
H: Y’know Marge, in some ways you and I are very different people.

(I use that about once a week.)  
White gold! Texas T! (pause) Sweetner!

(At the softball game): I wish I was at home with a big bag of potato chips. Mmmmm, potato chips…  
(Was this the first “Mmmmmm, \_\_\_\_\_”?)

Homer: There’s the right way, the wrong way, and the Homer Simpson way.  
Bart: Isn’t that just the wrong way?  
Homer: Yes, but faster.

(Upon discovering a family of opossums living in the monorail control panel): I call the big one “Bitey.”

(In the Internet episode, where he kept his pens and pencils stuck in a stick of butter): Mmmmm, delicious memo…

“Why I laugh?”  
Brain:_Now look sad and say doh_

doh

FBI man: When I nod and tap your foot you say “hello”

Homer: ok

FBI man: “hello mr thompson” \<nod, tap\>  
\<pause\>

Homer (turns to other FBI man): I think he’s talking to you.

But IMO the absolute funniest thing about homer is when he is not saying anything at all, when he is just staring, slightly split-eyed, completely devoid of any expression whatsoever. That look is classic.
