Famously, this great show has given us some classics that whoosh over kid's heads. But which are the best lines that have angered various SJW dikes and snowflakes?
I'd choose either the Yeeeeeessss waiter who'd had a stroke, or sailor Horatio giving an on-board Homer some porn mags to ''stop his crew turning gay''.
Lol
This is sorta related. More controversial than offensive.
In Simpsons Bible Stories in season 10, when Milhouse (as Moses) asks Lisa what's next for the Jews.
"What's next for the Israelites? The land of milk and honey?"
"Well actually, we're due to wander the wilderness for 40 years..."
"40 years?! But after that, it's clear sailing for the Jews right?"
"More or less....hey is that manna?"
Then it just ends. Funny and haunting at the same time.
That was a little haunting wasn't it? I recently watched that one recently and couldn't really completely laugh at that line.
shareLately actually, the Simpsons have been on this level of haunting existentialism. A lot of people criticize the new Simpsons, but you see, the new Simpsons are very spiritual/existential at the moment because they've gone on for so long. Existentialism is where I'm at in my life right now. I'm a Jewish-Christian Gnostic, myself. I study the Torah and the Bible all the time.
Checkout these episodes: Clown in the Dumps (season 26), Flanders Ladder (season 29), Bart's Not Dead (season 30), My Way or the Highway to Heaven (season 30), Treehouse of Horror XXX (season 31), Todd, Todd, why has thou forsaken me? (season 31). All these episodes take place in the afterlife/heaven.
The beginning to Clown in the Dumps and the ending to Bart's Not Dead are especially freaky.
I will definitely be checking those out. I have a way to go with this show though...I only recently watched Season 11 and 12.
shareI am a big Simpsons fan. It's true that the best seasons are seasons 1 through 12, but there's still a fair amount of good episodes after 12. I have not seen all the episodes after season 13, but one day I will.
Some standouts:
Season 19: Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind
Season 22: The Fight Before Christmas
Season 25: Brick Like Me
Season 26: Treehouse of Horror XXV & The Man Who Came to be Dinner
Season 31: Thanksgiving of Horror
