Uh MarkF you have been whooshed.

“Girls,Lisa,boys kiss girls” is Marge’s response to lisa’s comment about Vidal.  
Just a person who has memorized more of the Simpsons than is healthy checking in. 😉

No Mark,there is no hope for a cure.

The best course of action at this point is to round up all the Simpsons fanatics and put them on a assigned island(lets call it Simsonia).

There we will no longer be freaks as we will be surrounded by people just like us.

We will live out our days spouting quotes like “Me fail english? Thats unpossible” and arguing over minutae from the show like whether Apu is Indian or Pakistani.

In one of the episodes in Season 2 (I think it was “Old Money,” but after my marathon DVD viewing this past weekend, they all sort of run together), there’s a casino with a sign that reads, “Loosest slots in town!”

I don’t believe that’s something I’d advertise. 🙂

Good idea \*\* effac3d. \*\* That will be the ultimate Dopefest, though from what I’ve observed on these Boards, better make it a good size country (if not a continent).

I’m wondering how the whole Troy McClure marries Selma episode got on.

Agent: I can get you a movie with Rob Lowe and Hugh Grant.  
Troy: _Those sick freaks?_

KneadToKnow:

The sign in Vegas reads “loosest craps in town!”.

Unless something was changed for the syndication episodes,I have never seen the DVD sets.

D’oh,sorry knead.

I realize now you were talking about the ep where mr.Burns builds a casino,I was thinking of the one where Homer and Flanders go to Vegas.

That is correct. “Loosest slots” is something that is actually advertised in casinos. “Loosest craps” isn’t.

Yes, a much later [episode](http://www.snpp.com/episodes/AABF06) features the “loosest craps” sign. While I was unaware that “loosest slots” was something casinos really advertised, you have to admit, it sounds a little risque.

So, I stand corrected, but (IMHO) not wrong. 😉

The episode where Bart gets put on Focusin was on last night. Bart had a slew of gay jokes:

Lisa: Principal Skinner, what would you say is the most important  
fire-fighting tool? Would you say it’s prevention?  
Skinner: Oh, absolutely, Lisa. That, and the sand bucket.  
Bart: [pointing to some of the equipment] What’s that stuff?  
Skinner: Why, this is retardant.  
Bart: [laughs] Sure is. Hey, what’s that? [picks up some  
equipment]  
Skinner: That’s called a hose lengthener.  
Bart: [laughs] You need one.  
Skinner: G’oh!  
Bart: What’s this?  
Skinner: Just read the label. It’s a king-sized flamer!

And of course, later on:  
::::Bart runs by dressed as a cheerleader::::  
Skinner: Good Lord! He’s gotten into the pep closet!  
Homer: I’d say he’s coming out of the pep closet.

Hey what did I do??

I remember reading a thread or 2 like this in the past and I’m amazed no one has mentioned it, and I’m even beginning to doubt that I heard it myself, but I am pretty sure that in the baseball episode where Mr. Burns calls in all the wringers, there is a scene in the locker room where, as our POV is panning the room, someone snaps a towel and we hear “aw fuck”.

Can someone please confirm or deny this?

When Ed Flanders and his psychologist are reviewing a tape made of him as a child, young Ed is seen running into a playroom and attacking other children with this dialogue:

“Hah! I’m Dick Tracy. Take that, Prune Face! Now I’m Prune Face! take that, Dick Tracy! I’m Prune Tracy! Take that,…!”

And the doctor switches off the video.

Don’t worry, \*\* Mouthbreather \*\*, I’m sure you’re just thinking too hard. “But I’ve been using my whole ass” \* reversed \* is simply “But I’ve been using my ass [w]hole.” Maybe say it aloud?

Heh, yeah – I was reading way too much into that.

Remembered one last night; when order is restored to the school and a teacher comes back to work:

Teacher: This is a great day for me. I thought I could never teach again!  
Skinner: Oh, things have changed. There will be no mockery of your name, Mr. Glascock.

Flanders alerting Homer about his possibly inappropriate language: “All of us pull a few boners now and then, go off half-cocked, make asses of ourselves. I don’t want to be hard on you.”
