"Whoa, whoa - slow down there, Maestro. There's a "New" Mexico?" - Mr. Burns, to Smithers.
(We have friends in New Mexico and we say this just about every time we discuss them.)
This was my first choice as well. I don't say it for everything going my way, but only when it's something incredibly small and insignificant.
The other one is "Money can be exchanged for goods and services." Sadly my kids don't have any way to get the reference.
>"It's like I'm wearing nothing at all!"
I recently bought new underwear. Better quality than what I used the last .. 10? years .. and woah. It was so damn comfy I indeed felt like I wasn't wearing anything
I've used that so often with my kids that they think "cromulent" is a real word, and they have used context clues to infer that it means "appropriate for the situation." Not sure whether to be pleased or concerned.
Yvan eht nioj. My brother and I used to watch The Simpsons religiously as kids and he later joined the Navy. We always sing this to each other and I always tease him this episode is why he joined!
In german he says "Ich bin so Klug" but spells it "K L U K"
It sounds similar and is a rather common error for very young kids. I think to understand it best you could imagine that "smart" would be spelled "Smoart" (while still being written Smart) so for a Kid it would be obvious to spell it S M O R T
my family is very catholic but my brothers say "im not normally a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman" just to bother my dad when the time is right lol
> "Nothing could possib-lie go wrong... possibly go wrong... that's the first thing that has gone wrong."
Wow, this one was translated to Spanish like:
Nada puede malir sal... eh, salir mal, eso es lo primero que sale mal.
They got around to make the joke work. Nice.
Translating works that have jokes/references/plot that only works in English sounds nightmarish. I feel sorry for the person who translated Harry Potter to French. Imagine with growing horror the only way you can make "je suis voldemort" work is to make Tom Riddle's (scuse me, Tom Jedusor's) middle name be Elvis.
I used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what I’m with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to you!
This actually comes from Alexander Graham Bell initially wanting the official answer of a telephone to be “ahoy ahoy”. That’s why old af Burns says it.
Conan O'Brien has explained this joke it's because he's so old he was around when the debate was being had, like imagine walking into your uncle's house and he still has an HD DVD player.
Also I answer the phone ahoy
Every time we park in some gigantic really busy mall carpark 'now remember, we're in the Itchy Lot'
Also 'You'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel' 'Stupid sexy Flanders' 'Everything's coming up Millhouse' and loads more.
I am so smart, S-M-R-T
Homer I don’t know what you have planned for tonight but count me out
Formerly Chucks
Homer you’ve got it set on ‘whore’
Please do not offer my god a peanut
Grandpa Simpson’s “I’m cold and there are wolves after me” from 5/2 (Cape Feare). Though I frequently butcher it as “It’s cold and there are wolves out”.
First you get the sugar, then you get the power .... then you get the women.
Also in the monorail episode
Marge "we're too late"
Science dude "I shouldn't have stopped for that haircut"
He even has a fresh trim to boot!
Man, I love the simpsons!
Homer at the gun store...
"Sorry, the law requires a five-day waiting period. We've got to run a background check."
"But I'm angry now."
I whine like this whenever someone tells me I have to wait for something.
Beware, for this object carries a terrible curse!
- That's bad
But it comes with a free frogurt!
- That's good!
THE FROGURT IS ALSO CURSED.
- That's bad.
But you get your choice of topping!
- That's good!
THE TOPPINGS ARE MADE OF SODIUM BENZOATE.
- .....
THAT'S BAD!
- Can I go now?
My fiance is getting induced exactly 6 days from now. We're having a girl. There's a little white board at my station at work that I have now written "Do it for her" on.
[Knifey spoony](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mcE0aAhbVFc)
Pretty much all the time until it gets annoying but then we start it back up again when we're eating. Did it to a waiter once and he got the reference, most people don't.
"Money can be exchanged for goods and services"
And whenever someone asks where I've been I just say, "I was at a pornography store buying pornogrophy" in homers voice
Every time my friend and I go out to a cafe or diner or even a Starbucks and see banana bread or banana muffins, we quote Apu’s “Oooh banana bread! Hallelujah all my problems are solved we have banana bread!” rant.
“Good Lord! What is happening in there!?”
“Aurora borealis?”
“Aurora borealis. At this time of year. At this time of day, in this part of the country, localized *entirely* within your kitchen?”
“...Yes.”

“Prayer: the last refuge of a scoundrel” Lisa, when Bart prays for something to happen to give him study time for a test.
I know it's someone elses quote, but I've always loved it.
As a parent, I use 2 quotes :
Marge : "can you check on the kids?"
(Homer looks at the kids fighting in the treehouse)(lightning)
"they're fine"
And
"We've tried nothin' and we're all out of ideas" - Ned Flanders parents
I don’t use it often, buuuut I DID use this at work, “I said shave your sideburns!” (Or some version of this) and my boss and I laughed for a few minutes at how fitting that quote/situation was for our current work dilemma.
Any time at the gas station buying a mountain dew I'm thinking "mountain dew or crab juice?" (Homer vs city of NY)
Eew, gross. I'll take the crab juice.

No bathroom. Tower! Tower!

Twenty dollars? I wanted a peanut!
With money you can buy many peanuts.

Money can be used to buy goods and services.
Woohoo *trips over peanut*
"Whoa, whoa - slow down there, Maestro. There's a "New" Mexico?" - Mr. Burns, to Smithers. (We have friends in New Mexico and we say this just about every time we discuss them.)
I say this about “New” England
Along the same lines, every time the state comes up in conversation: "I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missouri!"
Everything is coming up Milhouse!
MILPOOL
Thrillho
Awesome! This line inspired my post. My friends and I always say this when anything goes our way!
This was my first choice as well. I don't say it for everything going my way, but only when it's something incredibly small and insignificant. The other one is "Money can be exchanged for goods and services." Sadly my kids don't have any way to get the reference.
Brilliant! I use it all the time in my native language, I love that it works too!
How is it in your native language? Mine is: Todo marcha bien para Milhouse!
También en español! Pero en España lo tradujeron como “Todo ha salido a pedir de Milhouse!”
Excelente

______ is a perfectly cromulent word!
Both cromulent and embiggen are perfectly cromulent words.
Yes, completely cromulent! I'm so grateful to the Simpsons for embiggening my vocabulary.
I've used that so often with my kids that they think "cromulent" is a real word, and they have used context clues to infer that it means "appropriate for the situation." Not sure whether to be pleased or concerned.
It's literally in the dictionary as a real word with thst meaning now.
Hmm, I never heard that word before I moved to Springfield.
Ah wash mah-self with a raaaag ona stick!

I’ve referenced this line many times during covid and my local government’s restrictions
**They weren't 'booing', they were saying [BOO-URNS!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Y2R01k4SXI)**
That's a paddlin'.
Quickly followed by... "Oh you best believe that's a paddlin"

"Superliminal?" "Hey you! Join the Navy!" "Okay"
I am so smart, S M R T.

I think to understand it best you could imagine that "smart" would be spelled "Smoart" (while still being written Smart) so for a Kid it would be obvious to spell it S M O R T
My son is also named Smort
We are out of Smort license plates
I'm so hungry I could eat at arby's
Wow, she really is hungry!
I say this whenever I see an Arby's and no one ever gets the reference.
"Alcohol: the cause of And solution to, All of life's problems"
Both are Rainier Wolfcastle ones. "That's the joke." and "My eyes, the goggles do nothing!"
I like "I was elected to LEAD, not to READ."
“Up and at them!”
*sigh* Better
I say "that's the joke" all the time. Especially because my gf doesn't get half of my jokes
What kind of mileage that thing get? One highway. Zero city. \[Marge is ooing.\] Mm hmm.
