Minor Simpson's characters you love

Remember no picking Ralph- he has had several episodes, plus is way too easy: “Its smells like hotdogs” heh heh heh.

My favorite minor character is the Sea Captain; “Yarrrrr”

“Yarrr, I’m not very attractive”

“Yarr, I don’t know what I doing”

Of course its hard not to love Professor Frink- he makes you laugh, he makes you think. . . .

“Glavin!”

:stuck_out_tongue:

-me

well ok, you can pick Ralph if you want “he tells me to burn things” heh heh heh :smiley:

The pimply faced teen-ager is always good for a laugh.

PFT: Oh no. That has to come out of my paycheque. If I had a girlfriend she’d kill me.

…must… kill… unnecessary… apostrophe…

How putting in a good word for your old buddy Gil, huh? He only has three down-payments left on his hotplate, ya know.

I always get a kick out of Dr. Nick Riviera. Am I the only one who shouts, “Hi, Dr. Nick” out loud?

Heck no Eve Mrs elf6c and I do it all the time- then laugh at each other for being so goofy.

Dude, I like totaly love the snake-tattoed criminal.
“I’m taking this thing to Mexico!”

I don’t think Sideshow Mel gets enough good press. This is how Sideshow Bob went wrong, you know.

I love watching Kent Brockman. (Now, if I could just remember the quote where he wins the lottery on air…)

Uter anyone?

I personally like Handsome Pete, but that’s just me.

Uter: Please don’t chase me, I’m full of chocolate.

I can’t wait for the season 2 DVDs…

I love to hate the comic book guy. Mainly because he’s so realistic. I’ve been in a couple of shops with pudgy doughboy know-it-alls like him running the place, thinking they’re hot shit.

“Sarcasm having been lost on you, we shall now close the register drawer.”

Does Apu count? I love Apu.

“A Twizzler is not a sprinkle! Perhaps in Shangri-La they are but not here!”

I’ve always like a particular surly dude that pops up on occasion. Two times I can think of:

Some hippie is singing “Sunshine, on my shoulder, makes me happy,” when the guy walks by and decks him.


And, at the world’s worst flea market, Marge is showing him her wares, saying “Your son or daughter will think this wishbone necklace is really cool!”

Surly guy: “I doubt my son or daughter is that stupid.”

Cletus, the Slack-Jawed Yokel.

{Sigh}
I desperately miss Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure.

Could it be that I am the only SDMBer with “Lurlene” tattooed on my shoulder?

Professor Frink! Professor Frink! He’ll make you laugh, he’ll make you think!

“Unshrink you? Well that would require some sort of a RE-bigulator, which is a concept so ridiculous it makes me want to laugh out loud. But not at YOU, oh holiest of gods, with wrathfulness and the vengeance and the blood reign and the hey hey hey it hurts me!”

Old guy with a beard! Old guy with a beard!

“Talkin’ outta turn? That’s a paddlin’. Starin’ out the window? That’s a paddlin’. Paddlin’ the school canoe? Oooo, you better believe that’s a paddlin’!”

Troy McClure, RIP.

TROY: Now, don’t you worry, Mrs. Simpson. I…uh-oh. We’ve drawn Judge Snyder.
MARGE: Is that bad?
TROY: Weeeeelll, he’s had it in for me ever since I kinda ran over his dog.
MARGE: You did?
TROY: Weeeeeeeeelll, replace the word “kinda” with the word “repeatedly,” and the word “dog” with “son.”

My favorites are Kang and Kodos.

Go ahead, throw away your vote - Kang/Kodos when they were running for the presidency of the U.S. when someone suggested voting for a human.
