I’m going to have to go with Brian. At least Barney knows he’s an alchoholic and has tried to stop, whereas Brian just keeps going. I mean, he’s not drunk, he’s “just tired from staying up all night drinking.”
(I know Peter said that, but he was also talking about Brian, and Brian agreed with him.)
I’m going to have to disagree with you RandMcNally. Barney is a worse drunk. He’s fat, unkempt, and spends most of his time at Moe’s. Brian can usually function normally, because he doesn’t drink all the time, and he gets out more.
In the early Simpsons, I’d have to agree with you. But lately, Barney has given up drinking. He realized that it was a bad thing, and has tried to clean himself up. Brian, on the other hand, is oblivious to his problem.
(Or did Barney go back, and I missed those episodes? I haven’t watched the Simpsons in a while.)
I didn’t ask any questions about Christopher Griffin…The only one I can think of now is who is more likely to go into the old man’s basement to get a popsicle, Milhouse Van Houten or Christopher Griffin?
Homer’s stupidity is based on obliviousness, whereas Peter’s is just a total lack of social graces. Not quite different, but Peter has gotten quite clever when he’s needed to… would Homer have been able to direct Anna & the King, for instance?
