Best Scene II
Homer and Mindy in the elevator
“I guess will we’re getting on,going down,getting off…together”
I think he sings “I’m Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely hearts club man…” while Lisa backs slowly away.
Worst thing Homer has eaten
Since the cloves/Tom Collins mix/pie crust has been mentioned, I’ll go with Homer and Wiggum chasing “fugitive” Marge and the new neighbor:

After finding out that “Scotchtoberfest” was a scam to catch Bart,

Well, he didn’t really eat it but the worst thing Homer ever…er…injested was in the afore-mentioned Thelma & Louise parody.
Homer and Wiggum drive into the canyon but are saved by the pile of garbage. Homer jumps out and starts kissing it: “Oh you beautiful, beautiful garbage” Muah! “Ick” Muah! “ooOOOhhh” Muah! “Mmmm”
Best food that could possibly be marketable
(As long as it didn’t kill whoever ate it from instant heart-attack)
“We take eighteen ounces of sizzling ground beef, and soak it in rich, creamery butter, then we top it off with bacon, ham, and a fried egg. We call it the Good Morning Burger.”

** Best Halloween Episode **
Treehouse of Horror V (The Shinning, Time and Punishment, and Nightmare Cafeteria). “I’ve got a ‘gut’ feeling Uter’s around here somewhere. After all, isn’t there a little Uter in all of us? In fact, you might even say we just ‘ate’ Uter and he’s in our stomachs right now! Wait. Scratch that one.”
** Best One-Shot Gag Character **
The Tall Guy in the Volkswagon that mocks Nelson.
** Best Guest Apperance as Character **
I would say Dustin Hoffman as Mr Bergstrom, but “The Simpsons: A Complete Guide to Our Favorite Family” says Mr Bergstrom was voiced by Sam Etic. That or A. Brooks as Jacques.

BEST MOVIE/TV SHOW TITLES:
“Hail to the Chimp”
“Admiral Baby”
BEST APU RANT:
His brutal berating of Skinner for his idea for the “Great American Novel” – a rehashing of “Jurrasic Park”.
With that wonderful title, Billy and the Clonosaurus.
MOST TOUCHING MOMENT:
The episode where Skinner gets fired. Bart gets him his job back, and the two realize that they must be enemies again. They hug, and each walks away chuckling.
Bart has put a sign on Skinner’s back that says “Kick Me”.
Sknner has put a sign on Bart’s back that says “Teach Me”.
Awwww.
Best Song
We Put the Spring in Springfield

U2- “He’s talkin’ about Waste Management, and that affects the whole damn planet.” Also generated my favorite line of the series(maybe), when Burns calls them “wankers” on the plane at the very end.
Best Troy McClure ID
You might remember me from such dates as Last Night’s Dinner
Best Restaraunt
You Thai Now!
Boy, do I feel dumb. After thinking on this for a while, I thought, “Hey, ‘Sam Etic’ sounds an awful lot like ‘semetic’.” Then I looked up Dustin Hoffman’s profile on IMDB, and, sure enough, he is alternately credited as “Sam Etic”. ;j
This is a good lead-in to my
FAVORITE SELF-REFERENTIAL JOKE
Lisa, after seeing The Itchy and Scratchy Movie: “There were all sorts of famous people! Dustin Hoffman, Michael Jackson…of course, they didn’t use their real names, but you could tell it was them.”
