I thought this was one of the better episodes I’d seen lately, although that really isn’t saying much. I liked the randomness of the secret jerky making operation (even if Apu’s expressing any interest in selling it is another FU to continuity). ---

I don’t think there was a chalkboard. Couch: A Simpsonized Wile E. Coyote paints a fake couch on a wall. The family sans Maggie all slam into the wall coyote-style. Maggie makes the road runner tongue-flicking noise with her pacifier and goes “beep beep,” then the family sits down- and Homer crashes through the wall. ---

It’s not about intent, and it’s just a note, not a warning. Anyway: you just type “quote=Wee Bairn,” using brackets instead of quote marks. Put “/quote” at the end of the section you’re quoting. ---

[QUOTE=Will Repair] My laugh out loud moment was when Homer pulled out the gun and shot the cigarette butt. The inside of his coat only added to the laughter. [/QUOTE] But it only worked because he comes out of nowhere and takes the cigarette from Lisa, throws it down to the ground and then does that. This was one of the best episodes of the season. ---

I forgot to mention this, but I think the first dancer in Chazz Busby’s commercial was Bart’s teacher from Homer vs. Patty & Selma. ---

On another level, Homer has no problem with Bart smoking. This is why the Simpsons should never end. ---

Did anyone notice, when the dancers were jonesing, one dancer yelled something like “There’s used gum under the seats!”. All of the girls then rushed to the first row, got down on their knees, and thrust their heads underneath the seats of the people already sitting there to eat the gum. That’s what it was supposed to be anyway, but in execution it looked like nothing so much as the girls rushing over to give everyone in the front row a blow job. Just me?
