I thought the joke was that not only is dignity something too disconnected to Kirk, but also too much of an obtuse idea to draw during Pictionary.

>Chuck's Suck and Fuck

Sounds like hell of a store!
>>
>>71278561
I thought it was he had no idea how to draw dignity i.e. he has none
>>
>>71280322
Chuck's Feed and Seed?
>>
The joke is that he can't draw and yet he thinks its so obvious. Something many adults at the time probably recognise.
The thing is, in the scene, he is in the middle of a public fight with his wife - it is made funnier because it makes him look like more of an idiot.
Homer's follow ups are great to.
>that's a door?
>>
>>71278561
Kirk draws a weird squiggle. We the audience have no idea what it is
He angrily insists that its obvious what it should be, drawing an absurd juxtaposition of what we expect a pictionary drawing to be and his behavior (which also violates the social norm)
The timer runs out and he reveals that its dignity, which is not a typical pictionary word (subverting expectation), and is also not really related to his drawing at all (same)
Luanne then draws something we don't see
Subverting our expectation again the other guests immediately recognize and approve of her drawing, even Kirk

This all takes place in around one minute, bravo writers
>>
Kirk has no dignity so he doesnt know how to express it

wew

He loses his dignity while getting angry about it

Otherwise quite good explanation

Ohhhhhhh now I get it. Is this intended? Kinda complicated joke for a 2 second sign gag

Complicated by zombie simpson standards

Its also about gta levels of subtle

The show has a lot of stuff like that.

never got it

>>71281006
The "Chuck's Fuck and Suck" theory was invented by neo-simpsons viewers (family guy fans). That isn't the joke. The joke comes from the fact that it used to be called Chuck's Feed and Seed, a standard and unspectacular name. The fact that he sold it to a guy called Sneed, who's name rhymes perfectly with the rest of the shop's name, is where the absurdity comes into it.
>>
>>71281067
Not really a joke beyond making fun of lame writing. Pretty shitty humour desu senpai

It's both fag
>>
>>71280322

I still don't think it's about suck and fuck, that doesn't make sense

I just think that owner's name is Chuck but ha changed it to Sneed to have this nice rhyme
>>
>>71281134
Wrong. They never made that kind of crude joke then. Maybe they do now, but not then.
>>
>>71281130

Yup, smart, handsome, nice, from a well-off family...

truly a token to his people
>>
>>71281169
This is correct. The fuck and suck joke is completely out of place. Only idiots who giggle whenever they hear the word "fuck" could possibly think otherwise
>>

Autism
>>
>>71281171
Is this bait?
>>
>>71281171

We could probably settle this by contacting one of the writers for the episode. I'm sure they don't have super private emails.

"Do you know how many people have contacted me wanting to know about Chuck's store?"

"Am I the first?"

(Long pause)"...yes."

Twitter of the writer of the 'E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)', the one where Sneed's joke is from

Go wild, boys, just don't ask 'lul did you mean chuck's fuck and suck????', just politely ask to explain the joke

This and when Hank asks Homer if he's ever seen a man laugh at a show and Homer laughs and says 'once'.
>>
>>71281772
he stole the jacket back when homer wasn't paying attention and didn't have time to put it on properly

also the once was the very moment prior where he threw away and yelled at his shoes
>>
>>71281657
>>71281680
Hell, he ended up being the "president of earth' in futurama.
>>
>>71281772
I think the "once" thing was homer just being dumb as always
>>
>>71281825
Nixon rewriting kids cartoons was the best episode.
>>
>>71281772
>asks Homer if he's ever seen a man laugh at a show
Pretty sure it was more along the lines of
>"Ever seen a man say goodbye to a shoe?"
>>
Fucking this joke right here. It seems like a reference that i just don't get.

Even in the DVD commentary they admit nobody fucking knows what it's meant to be. The original joke was coherent but I'm afraid I can't remember it.

is that edited? i always heard it as "car hold"
>>
>>71282441
Okay.
1) women generally say that when on the phone after washing their hair
2) this is because they have a towel wrapped around their head covering their ears
3) homer has heard marge saying it and think (because he's an idiot) that the towel actually makes it harder to hear even if it's wrapped around your waist.

That's it.

I think the joke with the shoes is that Hank is used to being able to shock "normal" people with his antics, but to Homer such behaviour isn't shocking.
>>

epic
>>
>>71282403
>>71282478

Of course it's 'hole'. It fits in with Moe's 'rough around the edges' personality. It sounds aggressive and visceral.
>>
>>71282478
It was confirmed to be Car Hold.
>>
>>71282487

I think you're thinking too had about it.

To me the explanation is that Homer's an idiot. I works on that level alone.
>>
>>71282521
I know for a a fact my own mother has said that when on the phone. It works on both levels.
>>
>>71281772
"Ever see a man say goodbye to a shoe?"
"Hehe yes once."

Because Hank just did it 2 seconds prior
>>
>>71282511

I think it's Moe's pesonality that makes us hear "Hole" instead of "Hold".
>>
>>71282418
i think its just that marge is such a shut in dumb house wife that she has never heard of a common spice
>>
>>71282487
I literally only thought this was a random joke they threw in but this explanation makes it a lot better.

No fuck it was Hole
>>

that may have been the intention but the way he pronounces it is definitely closer to hold than hole
>>
>>71282596
There's almost always an underlying explanation for a joke hidden beneath the "Homer's an idiot" reason.

Homer's idocy is so well established that sometimes that's all the writers need to create a joke.

I think it's lazy myself, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work.
>>
>>71282612
Son of a bitch has a good memory. One line from +10 years ago.

Most other actors can't even remember the fucking characters they played.
>>
>>71282612
is that a reference to jason batemans "bad words"?
>>
>>71282612
>Zev Goldberg

oy vey!
>>
>>71282362

The joke is that Bart, a ten year old boy, is talking in a manner typical of a seventy year old woman
>>
>>71282362

It might have been placeholder dialogue that was left in for lulz.

They did things like that in Futurama.

>>71282094
Homer says something, Mr Peabody says something in mild affirmation, the kid says, "That's right Mr. Peabody!" and Mr. Peabody says, "quiet, you!" for being an annoying shit.
