What jokes didn;t you get on the Simpsons?
On that episode where Homer replaces the Capitol City Goofball, Marge expresses enthusiasm for '4th Street and D' and then Tony Bennett sings it in associate enthusiasm.
Why is 4th street and D funny?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2Ulgtvx-NA
>We're going to sneak in to an R-Rated movie
>BARTON FINK
>BARTON FINK
>>63088080
Now, the joke there is that while it's R rated - it's a shit 'naughty' movie for 10 year olds to sneak into, right?
>>63088063
It's just a completely generic, unglamorous-sounding name and it's funny to hear it being crooned in this song about how romantic and exciting Capitol City is supposed to be.
>>63088063
>Sneed Feed & Seed
I don't get it.
>>63088063
tony bennett made lots of music for broadway productions, and broadway is on 4th street.
>>63088080
It's funny because the kids assume they're going to get to see something sexy and/ or violent, but we the audience know that they're actually going to be bored and confused by an arty, alienating character drama.
>>63088120
The old owner's name was Chuck
Following from that, the name of the old store was Chuck's Fuck & Suck
>>63088080

Most overrated Simpsons joke ever.
Just pure contrivance with no actual wit or logic to it.
>>63088108
'cause Moe invented it and it protrudes a large chemical flame to create it's distinct flavor?
>>63088080
title just makes me think of "Bart the fink"
..I hope that wasn't in the same season
>>63088233
Also putting the word "flaming" in big letters above a bar is going to create a certain implication.
>>63088216
Black or Blue haired kid'sDad were dropping them off somewhere (either the cinema complex direct or their intended sleepover home) and they were going to sneak in. Dad (no woman drove a puickup in the 90's) was in the cab and thus couldn't hear their their conspiracy from the pickup tray. Duh.
>>63088279
>put the kids in the pickup tray
oh, naturally.
>>63088224
I have a feeling the writer's designed it to be a cheeky in-joke without knowing that autists/memers/buzzfeeders would expand it in 2014/2015.
>>63088224
>Most overrated Simpsons joke ever.
>Just pure contrivance with no actual wit or logic to it.
I've always hated the joke and the explanation given here. I like to think it used to be called Chuck's Feed & Seed and as a strange coincidence a person named Sneed happened to buy it.
>>63088316
Pretty sure it was legal in a lot of American states in the 90's? No?
>>63088340
I don't know if you're trolling or just autistic. This is /tv/ so it's 50-50 either way.

I WONDER WHAT THEY COULD BE REFERENCING HERE
>>63088353
doubt it, especially considering their age. doesn't really make sense. but there was no other way to do it i guess.
the kid's who still watched the show learned something new that day
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwUNgn1KP4g
>>63088340
>>63088376
I thought it was just a way to show how a basic store called "chuck's" had to go with the times and have a catchy name instead
>>63088435
I honestly don't know.
>>63088192
No you dumb ass. The real joke is that you're led to believe it was Chuck's Fuck & Suck but in reality it was Chuck's Feed & Seed.
>>63088438
I'm pretty sure it was, and may still be. But since obviously both of us don't and can't be worried to look up 90's US state traffic laws state-by-state, we'll call a truce (even though i predict I'm right; and even though the Simpsons was deliberately not assigned to a particular US state....which may prove my point).
>>63088216
Jimbo
>>63088504
i checked, it wasn't. in some states is was legal if they were adults, or adult supervision on the flatbed/tray. i guess the dad was a madman.

S.H.I.T.
>>63088435
holy shit this is what new simpsons is eh? i stopped watching in ~2005
>>63088543
i don't care if it's a shit joke or not, but tell me what's the joke?
>you don't know
>>63088435
I sense sarcasm in your post, but I have no fucking clue what this is referencing.
>>63088063
Smithers like to introduce big objects into his anus. That's why he's standing in front of a chair in Nick Riviera's clinic when Lisa takes Bart with a broken arm.
Filthiest joke in the whole show.
>>63088404
if you didn't get it, then you wouldn't have even known it was supposed to be a joke, and you wouldn't have posted it here.

Watch Murderball, brah. It's a documentary about wheelchair basketball. One of the dude's got paraplegialized because he got drunk and fell asleep in a parked pickup's tray and got hurled off it on the highway when his friend drove off on it. Not too much relevance to this thread, but good doco.
>>63088795

>>63088672
>I'm the first non-Brazilian to travel backwards through time
I always assumed it's because Brazil is a backwards fucking country.
>>63088672
>I'm the first non-Brazilian to travel backwards through time
Pretty sure that's the one nobody's been able to definitively figure out.
>>63088881
I assumed it's becaus all kind of weird shit happens in Brazil, with peyote and shit

it's just a non-sequitur.
I'm from an european country and I don't have a clue on most of the celebrities mentioned in the golden age. But I don't care. You know, I could google who's Rory Calhum, but I don't care. To me, it's the man that walks.
>>63088672
>Naked Lunch
I figure the joke is that there's no nudity and no lunch, but that isn't true. There's nudity and they eat lunch like three times at least.
>>63089225
but did they have naked lunches.
>>63089107
Rory Calhoun was an incredibly obscure reference even when that episode came out. The joke is that all of Burns' cultural references are about half a century out of date.

>Carlos
Castaneda, "a Brazilian who wrote about his chemical-induced `adventures' about twenty years ago. A rather trendy (for the college crowd) set of books from the late-60's, early 70's."
Also, If I recall was a peruvian guy who also traveled in time but I can't find the source
>>63089579
carlos castañeda himself was peruvian.

2, they had the mr fredrikson's house flying in the background in another episode
>>63088881
>>63088898
They talk about this on the commentary. It was a changed line. The original line had something to do Mr. Peabody and Sherman, but I can't remember the exact joke.

Remember that classic episode where Homer and Marge divorced and he started dating Lena Dunham?
>>63088898
>with peyote and shit
You're thinking central America, brother.
That girl in the turban
>>63090562
Lemme guess, Homer gets back together with Marge after they find out that Lena was shoving pebbles into Maggie's vagina
>>63090562
I remember when they would draw celebrities almost like caricatures of themselves. Now it's like the complete opposite
>Lena Dunham being that attractive
lol ok
>>63088233
>>63088266
A "mo" is short for "homo"
So a "flaming 'mo" is a "flaming homosexual"
>>63090624
>Lemme guess, Homer gets back together with Marge after they find out that Lena was shoving pebbles into Maggie's vagina
This is something I've never understood. Any clarification would be appreciated
>>63090867
I think it's just that it's a bizarre scene because Twin Peaks is famous for being so strange.
>>63090867
IT'S BAIT
>>63088672
>>63088882
>>63088898
>>63090411
>>63088881
the original line was
>I'm the first non-fictional character...
then they changed it and matt groening (who wrote the joke) didn't get it but they kept it anyway, its non-sequitur, it has nothing to do with any real Brazilians

This one. Is it some reference?
>>63091067
I just got the new issue of sponge and vacuum.
>>63088116
This. I also thought it was supposed to be poking fun at how songs about New York do the same kind of thing. Throw out references to places and streets that don't make sense to people not from the area.
Didnt got this
>>63091142
children of the corn or the village of the damned remake i guess. spooky kids.
>>63091142
Village of the Damned, I think.
>>63091304
Just a guess, but Cape Canaveral is known for rocket launches. That's an easy sexual pun. JFK was known for banging everything, and Fatty Arbuckle was accused of raping a woman to death.
>Baseball song
>That song about constitutional amendments
>Where's the beef
Quite a few American exclusive references, really.
>>63091362
Still surprised of how many hidden sex jokes simpsons had.
>>63091304
cape canaveral was once actually called cape kennedy. maybe they thought it would be funny to imply that it once was called cape arbuckle but had to change the name due to the rape thing with arbuckle. and then they had to change again becasue kennedy's sexual rumors.
>>63091397
>Where's the beef
No wonder he won Minnesota!

Hat blocking is the term for shaping a hat on a mould (or block).
It's like the "Lionel Hutz: Attourney at Law. Also Expert Shoe Repair" jokes
>>63091060
matt groening writes jokes?
>>63088192
stop perpetuating this joke
the joke is that you assume it was named seed and feed because it rhymed with his name, Reed. But in fact, it used to be called chucks, begging the quesiton why he'd call it seed and feed, a bizarre name, seeing as it didn't rhyme
>>63091397
do other countries not understand what baseball is?
>>63091734
What else would you call a chicken feed and semen store?
>>63091734
that's not what begging the questions means

the old simpssons scene is framed so that it's obvious. the whole scene is the joke. iirc he uis making fun of lazy animators when 2nd homer walks by
new simpsons seems liek a lazy attempt to make a seen more "dense"
also, some jokes are only funny the first time

>Due to the prominence of the World Trade Center in the plot, the episode was removed from syndication after the September 11 attacks. By 2006 the episode had come back into syndication in some areas; however, parts of the episode are often edited out. One previously such edited item is a scene of two men arguing across Tower 1 and Tower 2, where a man from Tower 2 claims, "They stick all the jerks in Tower One!" Co-executive producer Bill Oakley commented in retrospect that the line was "regrettable".
heh
So anyways I sez to Mable
I still wonder who Mable was and what Bart was talking about with him to this day.

Because if you age the characters you actually have new stories to tell. If Simpsons really wants to continue for-fucking-ever then they should age the characters up so at least they can tell new stories.
Homer: (On George Bush) I didn't vote for him!
Marge: You didn't vote for anybody.
Homer: I voted for Prell to go back to the old glass bottle. After that I became deeply cynical.

I think one of the big things they do nowadays that really makes the show shit is how everyone is always everywhere. No one has a life outside of the Simpsons' antics and the entire town is always ready to come together in those retarded crowd shots.

Baseball requires equipment, an enormous field, plates, bats, helmets, fencing...it's more for privileged, moneyed people. Am. Football is the same way and why neither caught on in other countries. They're literally too poor for it.

we play baseball in yurop, but only in gym class in elementary school. the fact that people talk this "sport" seriously is hilarious. i think it has some following in netherlands though. and finland have their own version.
Was this one of the best obscure jokes?
In the Selma/Patty dates Skinner episode, is the fact that they are so many opportunities to make Vertigo references that don't actually happen the whole joke?

Apparently this joke predicted the Higgs Boson particle.

yeah but that's just one of them. The second one is almost a perfect disproof of Fermat's theorem, one of the at the time most well known unsolved problems of mathematics
it isn't correct though, it's off by 3 or something, but just finding such a close number for a 5 second joke is pretty huge imo
The other two lines are also pretty significant but i don't know anything about physics so I can't tell you why
>>63096401
Did you Google up all that?

anyone who studies math knows about Fermat's Theorem
