ITT minor classic Simpsons gags that make you laugh everytime.

Wut gag was this again

>>149693603 (OP)
when gramps walks into the brothel sees bart and just walks right back out like nothing happened, or when lenny gets his wall smashed through and he lives like hes penniless

>>149693621
They show this exact frame like 5 times during the Homer vs Tatum fight for no real reason.

>>149693603 (OP)
>Wait a minute, this sounds like rock and/or roll
I don't know why but the use of and/or there slays me

>>149694886
What was he laughing about again?

>>149693603 (OP)
>Have the Rolling Stones killed
>But sir those are-
>DO AS I SAY

>>149694886
>>149694891
Oh, yes, that crippled Irishman.

I'm seeing double! Four Krusties!

First thing tomorrow morning I'm gonna punch Lenny in the back of the head

>>149693603 (OP)
Hey what about my hat?

*random hat thrown out*

haha suckers!

The warbled music does it every time.

>>149693603 (OP)

Leisure world?

Now them's good eatins!

>>149693603 (OP)
>Hey Bart, your epidermis is showing!

>>149694883
it's perfect. The idea that he's so straightlaced, he doesn't even know the proper word. More of a Skinner joke, but Skinner's been in 'Nam, so he knows what rock n' roll is.
>>149696217
>La..tex... con..do... boy I wish I lived in one of those!
as a kid I thought that was a joke on sciencey-sounding ingredients on packaging.

>>149695308
Uh-

>>149696495
I miss simpsons episodes where I could disagree with the message and still laugh

>>149696658
isnt it depressing that grades didn't get better when it became possible to just have all reference material at all times?

not that.. school assignments require you to use your own texts.. they teach you the info and you write it down.

>>149693603 (OP)
>P.S. I am gay.

>>149693603 (OP)
This scene lives rent-free in my head and I have to rewatch it now and again.

>>149697008
To this day I'm not sure if Burns is mad because he still thinks Mattingly hasn't trimmed his sideburns, or because he said TRIM and he has clearly done more than trim them.

>>149697018
Mattingly never had sideburns in the show, so I can only assume Burns was talking about the mullet.

Geez, I don't look like that.

Hans being 31 and old always fucking sends me. The delivery is hilarious.

>>149697300
great, now there's a THIRD theory.

>>149693634
Budget is the reason

>>149697300
He was talking about the moustache.

>>149693603 (OP)
Krusty faking going to the bathroom to slip away from paying Fat Tony only to run off, drive off, and fly off.
>Louie: When he's done in there, I gotta go, too.

>>149697567
What's the second theory? His mustache?

mmm... 64 slices of american cheese

Sneeds feed and seed hahaha

>>149693634
>>149698012
I thought it was a reference to old boxing movies cutting back to the same guy in the crowd over and over

>>149693603 (OP)
>But so many of your heroes wear tights. Batman, for example and... Magellan.

>>149693603 (OP)
Mr Burns and Smithers hoing though multiple secury check points to shut down the plant just for the control room having a shitty door facing the parking lot and a stray dog wandering in.

Marge: "Homer, there's someone here who can help you."
Homer: "Batman?"
Marge: "No, he's a scientist."
Homer: "Batman is a scientist."
Marge: "Is not Batman!"

>>149698729
Everything about this is perfect.

>>149698729
This one's lived rent-free in my head for fucking years. 20 second joke rollercoaster.

>>149699485
And then immediately followed by this. That episode was so good, even for the smaller jokes.

>>149693603 (OP)
>This town is a part of us all. A part of us all. A part of us all.
>Sorry to repeat myself, but it'll help you remember.

>>149693634
Wow that's absolutely hilarious

>More cocoa, Mr. Burns?
>... YES.

Something about Harry's performance gets me every time.

>Now, do you have extruded polyvinyl foam insulation?
>No
>Good!

(immediately followed by wolf whistles)

They knew about rule 34

>>149696495
That was a great gag.

>>149699782
>MORE cocoa
>burns has already had one
lmao

>>149693603 (OP)
The visual gags that do things impossible in live action always get me.
https://youtu.be/u0Q2FoYn_xQ?si=00TTb86d4A0tNbY6

>this place "Moe's" you left just before the accident, this is a business of some sort?
>Homer's brain: Don't tell him you were at a bar. HUH but what else is open at night??
>Homer's mouth: It's a pornography store. I was buying pornography!
>Homer's brain: Hehehe I would've never thought of that.

Castellanetta's delivery in that is beyond perfect

does anyone have that scene where

>>149700538
Yeah.

When I grow up, I’m going to Bovine University!

>>149693603 (OP)
https://youtu.be/_0p0XG92FwU?t=86

Always useful to remember when following crowds in a museum, guided tours or similar

I'm Lenny. This is Carl and Homer. I'm Lenny.

Everyones remembers the "new glasses" line and it's follow-up, but the conversation between Marge and Homer makes me laugh more.
>I guess we could get more involved with Bart's activities. But than I'd be afraid of smothering him.
>Yeah and then we'd get the chair.
>That's not what I meant.
>It was Marge. Admit it.

But why'd I have the bowl, Bart? WHY did I have the BOWL?

>>149698729
Stephen King tier japery

Hello, my name is Mr. Burns. I believe you have a letter for me.
>Okay Mr. Burns, what's your first name?
...
I don't know.

>>149698729
I knew what was gonna happen and still laughed my ass off. Perfection.

>>149698729
Why'd he do it?

>Do not touch - Willie
>Good advice
This one has lived rent free in my head for the better part of two decades.

>>149704435
>Hello, Mr. Burns. This is your mother.
>Son, this is Mrs. Burns. I just called to say I don't love you. You are a bad son, Mon... tel.

Lousy Smarch weather is something I always think of when the weather is terrible.

>Brothers and sisters are natural enemies! Like Englishmen and Scots! Or Welshmen and Scots! Or Japanese and Scots! Or Scots and other Scots! Damn Scots! They ruined Scotland!!

>>149699782
The way he says "yes" in the sitcom bit destroys me
>"Smithers, I'm home!"
>studio laughter

>Burns' mouth flaps open at a 90 degree angle

>>149706693

>>149699782
for e its the lobby song

>>149705794
You Scots sure are a contentious people.

Went by the name Homer. Seven feet tall, he was, with arms like tree trunks, and his eyes were like steel: cold and hard. Had a shock of hair, red, like the fires of hell.

>>149693603 (OP)
LET'S. GET. BIZZAY.

>>149698729
Love this bit
https://youtu.be/vdz4bc2LGMM?si=VqrMECTDAB8RljHm

>>149693603 (OP)
I remember laughing my ass off at Homer dementedly singing “Guess I forgot to put the fog lights in!” to the tune of the Golden Crisp jingle.
When I saw the episode again years later they had changed it to a different tune.

Not funny.

The scene where Nelson exclaims "Andy Williams" makes me laugh.

Peak Simpsons gag right here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AszyBg_Ui78

>>149710590
This one wouldn't be so far off if it was smokin

>>149693603 (OP)
Grampa's hair is so weird

>>149710713
Haven't Seen this in so Long that I forgot it uses the same Scream for both. Don't know if that better or worse

It's one that's not even outright stated as a joke. Wiggum lets all the prisoners free to see the hockey game and they run off. Then for some inexplicable reason they actually show up to watch a children's hockey game, still in prison uniform.

>>149693621
Oh. I thought it was when screams missess bouvier.

For me it's the any key joke, because there no any key just ctrl or alt, jej.

>>149699782
I think I'm blind

HELLO MR. THOMPSON.

>>149712190
He screams a little louder and longer as he runs away from DIET.

>>149703729
white? but theyre yellow?

Ketchup... Catsup.

>>149705547
As an ESL watching this I didn't get the dirty joke about it, thought it was just Homer being so stupid that he could understand instructions and still ignore them with a smile.

>>149700468
There's a frankness to admitting (in this case lying) to something shameful like that that really sells it.

The line delivery for Bush makes every joke hilarious.
>Hmm a krusty burger, that doesn't sound too appetizing
>Never understood cold drinks myself not my forte
>Thought the banner was pretty straight forward but guess I'll just take it down
>And since I had achieved all my goals as president in one term, there was no need for a second. Good memoirs, good not... not great

>>149693603 (OP)
>OH! DEAR GOD NO!

The delivery on "Oh no, Bette Midler!" has been burned into my brain

>>149713618
>I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS MIDLER

>when homer of all people knows who a writer is and what they're known for and you have no idea who it is
Funniest thing is that until the last sentence you'd think he knew nothing about Walt Whitman.

>>149707372
I always liked that part of Monty. Like you can't ask him FOR anything, but in the spur of the moment, he'll basically do whatever you ask/bug him to without much issue. An absolute baffling enigma how this hateful, spoiled, untouchable monster that detests the common man can also be as much of a little goober that you need if you somehow ask at the right time.

Pretty much all of Hank's bits in the episode he appeared in. The way he's so super supportive of his employees, even when his obvious villainous acts are on full display. There were times it seemed like he was just yanking Homer's chain to get something out of him, yet it turns out he genuinely did care about what Homer wanted as we see him sign off on Homer's departure and even letting him have some fun in all the chaos taking place.
If I had to pick exactly one bit, it'd probably be the shirt swap or the hammock suggestion.

>>149713783
It's fantastic, but for me it's the show throwing thing. The ambiguity of Homer's response is fantastic.

>>149713615
Oh yeah, love that one! Why the heck are they singling out poor Moe?

>>149713783
They could have done an entire show based on this premise.

>>149699591
Such a great ep

What I like is you can practically feel Milhouse waiting for this moment because he starts by insulting Bart's dog and then brings up the incident despite it not being very relevant.

This got funnier to me after I got a job doing foundation repair.
It is absolutely something you should not do on your own.

>The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side

What is that underground station even for?

I don't know why, but the delivery on

it was subversive in an "Oh no he DI'INT" way at the time.

>No you won't!
Homer vs the 18th amendment is easily one of the greatest episodes, so many great lines
>Going bowling. Not back, avenge deaths.

>”Eh, it’s about the same. Uh-oh! Look out, Smithers!”

The joke is that Scots can and will become enemies with anyone and everyone.

>>149714698
Only Sith deal in absolutes.

>>149713585
I loved the part where Homer is honking and the secret service guy just stoically walks over with a screwdriver, pops the hood, and disconnects Homer’s car horn.

>also learned some years later the Winnipeg thing
QRD?

>>149720798
>Sorry Marge, I think it was that BEAN I had earlier

>>149706693
No. But here's something interesting: some British noble in the 1800s, a Scotsman, I think, paid a Japanese village to move to his estate and just live as they always have except now, they'll have pasty British faces gawking at them all day as a human zoo exhibit.
Also, I visited Scotland some years ago and their reputation for being ill-tempered and parsimonious is undeserved. They were some of the loveliest people I've ever met so long as I didn't have to look at them. Jesus Christ, the average Scot is ugly as fuck. Pleasant, generous folks but ugly as a dog dick.

>>149723650
stole from a youtube comment, it takes roughly 30 hours to drive from Cape Canaveral to Winnipeg

>>149723764
>Pleasant, generous folks but ugly as a dog dick.
The Scots and Irish look like mashed potato golems.

>>149723793
Oh okay, that's what I figured. That it was just a really far drive.

>>149723764
The modern stereotype of the Scots was formed in the 18th century when the average Englishman was most likely to meet a scot in the form of a surly Drill Sargeant or miserly merchant.
Before that they were just "those savages and cattle thieves who live up north somewheres" even though lowland Scots had pretty much the same lifestyles as any Englishman.
Lowland Scots for their part considered Highland Scots as "Those savages who steal cattle and live up in the hills somewhere", but did start stealing certain cultural practices from them after the acts of union to help differentiate themselves from the English, such as the wearing of the kilt.

>>149724779
Is that the bird Mr. Burns gave his entire plant to?

The scene with Flander's as a Kid beating up the rest of his classmates while pretending to be Dick Tracy always got a laugh out of me since a subtle "cut off before a swear" joke happens and doesn't get the acknowledgement it deserves.

>>149713783
>Wait, so you're telling me I can help hold the world hostage to extort money from the UN and pour boiling hot oil on their troops when they try and stop me?

>>149724919
>Now I'm Prune Tracy! Take that Dick...
>Ned no!

>Did you have the same backwards talking dream with the flaming cards?

That bit remains one of my only exposures to Twin Peaks apart from the dance scene and the Sesame Street parody

>>149725115
>Oh, well, I'll just drink this warm cream.

>>149699589
>Yes Mr. Sherman, everything stinks

>>149702217
Good Lord, gigantism!

It makes me laugh that Griffey had more lines scripted but he couldn't deliver them worth a damn, so they were all cut.

>>149708194
Yeah, that one lives in my head rent free

I watched Twin Peaks for the first time last year (the first 2 seasons) and I think it holds up incredibly well. Worth giving a shot for sure.

>>149693603 (OP)
>Uh, you have any sugar around here? >Sugar? Sure. Here you go. Sorry it's not in packages.
>Want some cream?
>Uh, no.

I love the overly dramatic endings like this and the shifty eyed dog.

>I'm coming to kill you slowly and painfully
>*AH HAHAHAHAHA WIPEOUT...

And
>Bart your mortal enemy is on the radio
>It's time for more deeeementia with Dr Demento!

As a kid I already found this gag funny, but when I learned that the writers somehow considered it the worst gag in simpson history it somehow made it even funnier to me

Probably. Small details like the color of his hair were always changing in the earlier seasons before they settled on keeping his current look more consistent.

Having some random ass job fits what's generally used for but it's difficult to say without his distinctive voice. But they also used basically the same voice for Charles Bronson too:

>>149734972
It's oddly well animated.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqZdfxc-fq0
The fact that they dedicated 10% of the run time to this one bit, and it doesn't feel lazy, is just amazing.

>>149735403
I wouldn't call it a "bit" at that point. It a main element of the plot. There's discussion of the play prior to and after this scene.

The fact that they show exactly where the other cities are, when they never show Springfield's location.
And they're all spread out so it's not an obvious chain of Lanley hitting all the cities in one region.

>>149731553
Not clicking that shit, what was that episode anyways? Another ratings bait?

>I'd kill you if I had my gun!
>Yeah, well, ya don't.
Something about that delivery cracks me up.

It shows up randomly and sometimes in the comics too, but everytime they cut to someone talking randomly they say "So I says to Mabel I says" and it always cuts off there.

Also the part with Nelson giving his huckleberry secrets to the other boys only for Skinner to passy by and Nelson starts talking about bullying instead. Skinner nods happily and moves along only for Nelson to switch back to the huckleberry talk

>>149736426
Also the claim the monorail put them on the map but their towns no one has heard of.

https://youtu.be/AnWmF5Fq0sg?si=1tLhX6jEwiLxnn06

Carl: We got things to do.
Homer: Like what?
Lenny: It's a secret.
*Homer looks at Carl who is drinking and can't talk*
Homer: Shuuut up.

So funny bit about the monorail episode, I can't remember if I heard this from a Conan interview or a commentary track or w/e, but originally they tried to get George Takei for the monorail episode but he turned it down because he was part some pro public transport advocacy group. I remember them saying something like "We called up the one fucking celebrity in Hollywood who actually gave a shit about monorails"

Everything about the end of this story was great. From Bart standing up for himself and still getting chased after his speech and moral to believing in ballet to save him and he falls into a ditch to Lisa congratulating him for standing up for what he loves, kissing him on the cheek, and leaving him hurt in a ditch.

And this is the B story for the episode where Homer borrows money from Patty and Selma. The chauffeur license stuff, including the tv playing a commercial but it's actually off. Flavor country. And who could forget dear Rat Boy. One of my favorite episodes and I watched it hundreds of times as a kid and parts play vividly in my head.

I found him fake crying in an early season funny.
I found the style at the time funny when the same day I had to deal with one parent rattling off a tale she had done 5 times before and noticing how it was actually 3 stories in one, the details were not the same as the last time she said it and she stopped talking at a random point that neither had anything to do with something presently happening nor was a natural end point of the story.

The lead up joke to this is what's really great
https://youtu.be/AJnozKvhlS8?feature=shared
Suggesting that Carl actually hates Lenny. So the scenes of them being rude to each other is all the funnier

>>149745028
Yea, when she started to become discount Huey Freeman, it really made it hard to enjoy her character because most of the time, her stances were way too forced or shaky at best. Huey was actually tackling some deep issues, whereas most of Lisa's complaints are usually preferences or smaller matters.
Doesn't help that for every instance of Lisa having a point, she's often had more moments of just being a brat because Bart is succeeding at something and she isn't in the spotlight. At least three times now we've had her throw a fit and sulk, and Bart either gives up or fails because apparently he can't be good at anything if it overshadows Lisa.

>>149731553
Sad that these kind of episodes don't have the kind of punch the older ones did. I remember the one all about "Missing" or deleted scenes like the one with the robot Richard Simmons, which was absolutely glorious.

"And I contend that those tourists were decapitated BEFORE they entered the Krustyland House of Knives."

Homer was going to drop an entire fucking fish tank and a bag of live goldfish on Bart

>Lisa: Well, that's the end of Dad's wedding business.
>Bart: Why?

I can't remember the episode and how it got to this point, but Homer has a harpoon gun for some reason and about to shoot an animal out at sea, but Lisa catches up in a second boat and and at the final moment is able to push the gun to the sky screaming "DAD, NO!" just as he's firing it. And then they have a heart to heart talk with Homer promising not to hurt another animal and they hug it out.

And whilst the conversation is happening, you see a seagull flying in the background that quietly disappears in a cloud of feathers once the harpoon falls down and hits it

>>149693634
I don't remember that happening at all.

>Homer, do you remember the way you acted at the party last night?
>so I said, "I must get out of these wet clothes and into a dry martini."

Sometimes I wonder what an entire episode of a gag like this would be like. Feels like something that'd be boring but I'd watch late at night and fall asleep to and that feels very comfy.

Oh yea, that was a great one. While I'm glad they never milked Hank as a character, or did him dirty like Grimes, it would been fun had he stuck around a bit longer. I recall hearing he was supposedly going to be the primary villain for the movie, though I don't know how true that was given it something I heard right around the time the movie had just released.

>>149761572
that's the magic of late nite tv talkshows, it's amazing how much of a difference a good host makes. Dick Cavett could hold keep a conversation about pocket lint going and keep your attention for a solid 10 minutes minimum.

>>149768470
Russ Cargill has the same voice actors, so like "Moe's" it was probably going to star Hank until Fox found a test audience who lived under a rock and didn't have any prior knowledge of The Simpsons. That's also why Colin is in the movie even though everyone knows Milhouse has a crush on Lisa.

>>149768470
>I recall hearing he was supposedly going to be the primary villain for the movie
He was, but they realized that he didn't really make much sense for the type of villain they wanted, since he didn't really have a reason to antagonize Springfield or the Simpsons.

>>149769247
Makes sense, he seemed like he would have to become a whole other guy just to hate Homer, who he excused despite witnessing much of Homer's bumbling buffoonery first hand. Guess the writers were at least being somewhat smart back then, even if it was well into the era of writing where Simpsons felt more like just "topical jokes and some occasional self reference"

>Hail to the bus driver, bus driver man
I like those charming moments where Skinner gets to enjoy his idealized schoolmaster life

>>149734473
Family guy did an episode a number of years ago where Brian and stewie go back and visit old episodes including the first one. They would animate entirely new scenes in the old style and I really wish they'd just go back to having these shows look like that. I understand why they don't but it's a lot more charming

>>149735469
Obviously Springfield doesn't have a set location, but there's more than a handful of times where they pinpoint a general location. There's a couch gag where it zooms out from the house and into space and it's implied it's in the mid west even though it can't be since they're also near an ocean south hurricanes

>>149772661
I don't get it, explain it to me. I thought the joke was simply that the question is phrased like a drug high, but Barney immediately knows they're from NASA and want to make him an astronaut.

>>149773372
I think it really was just a subversion of expectation. The viewer is supposed to assume it's a drug joke but then barney takes it in the more improbable but intended way. I think the setup just wasn't great, because barney's never seen doing drugs, so it isn't in his character to want to do drugs.

Of course it's also possible I just didn't understand the joke either.

Not Lenny!

>>149774570
Lenny was like the best character to do this joke with. A secondary character who, to this day, has almost no actual character development. I will never understand what they were thinking by giving Carl that Greenland back story

>>149774736
>Carl that Greenland back story
wha...
actually, i don't wanna know

>>149774839
Short story shorter, he was adopted by a couple in Greenland as a kid and grew up there. He was upset because none of the guys knew anything about him and moved back there for that episode.

>>149774928
Okay that's not so bad. But totally unnecessary and late to the game.
He's been around for over 30 years.
This would be like in the last 2 minutes of a movie, a character looks at the camera and says "I have a twin brother."
Oh. Uh. Does that change anything that came before? Not really. Is it going to effect some radical turn in the conclusion? Not really.

>>149775049
Could be worse, there was a joke in one episode where Lenny was apparently just a figment of Carl's imagination. And sure, it's just a joke, but it feels like something Family Guy would pull, where that at least kind of has the justification to suddenly say "this character was never real" because FG plays around with the fourth wall more than Simpsons does

>>149775127
The episode you're talking about was the one where the hackers show a bunch of clips from fake episodes. Nothing in that episode was meant to be taken seriously. The same episode has Martin as a 40 year old midget man as a spy

>>149775175
It's still pretty dumb since it just feels so uninspired. I know Simpsons isn't nearly as good as it was back in its early days, but there are times it seems to even surpass the worst of Family Guy with its jokes. Doesn't help that they kowtowed to that fucking Indian faggot who screeched and cried about Apu for years until they finally stopped using him as a proper character.

>>149775352
The biggest problem with apu is that they recasted all of their ethnic characters with people of the same ethnicity, except for apu. I don't get this decision. Apu was always one of the most positively portrayed characters in the show.

>>149775507
That's just even more stupid, since nobody ever batted an eye when a black man played one of the most iconic samurai characters in all fiction. But I know this is all due to really stupid, racist shit where somehow it's only bad if white peepol play an ethnic character, even though none of the characters in Simpsons were ever remotely racist, not even close to the kind of stuff seen in things like banned Popeye cartoons

>>149775507
George Floyd caused those minority characters to be recast, Apu was discarded before that happened and probably has a separate writing edict where they're not allowed to give him lines.

>>149699500
Ah yes. The Classic.

>>149738817

The guy didn't care that Apu had an Indian voice by a white man. What he wanted was to do the voice of Apu himself, so he could get FOX money. Instead FOX went pure spite and just wrote Apu out of the show so nobody would voice him and nobody would benefit. Whatshisface doesn't get his money and Apu doesn't get shown as a positive South Asian man.

It was all about money. It's also doubly hilarious where you can have blacks voice whites or East Asian characters but whites doing that? No no no no no no......

Not a good episode but this was funny
