“Well, well, finishing something?” – The Devil
This week, someone not only made Simpsons donuts and posted the recipe, they made the Soul Donut! Excellent. In addition to that we’ve got fan art everywhere from crosstitch and felt to statues and house paint. Plus there’s some excellent usage, more episode rundowns and reviews, and more.
Enjoy.
Note: Still no news on contract renewal. I continue to assume there will be a full Season 27.
Homer Simpson’s Donut Recipe – Just what it says, with easy to follow instructions and this:
Etsy: Marge Simpson Cross Stitch – Excellent and for sale.
Works in Progress – And coming soon from the same woman as the link above, Moe!
Simpson – Fan made Homer out of felt. Excellent.
5 ‘Simpsons’ Episodes That Could Have Been The Series Finale – “Behind the Laughter” still gets my vote.
This website archives everything Bart Simpson has ever written on the blackboard – Metro.co.uk rediscovered that site that has all the chalkboard images on it, so it was making the rounds this week.
Brighton students wake up to massive Simpsons mural being painted on their home – Neat:
Renowned Brighton graffiti artist Aroe MSK was commissioned by the landlord to paint the striking artwork on the house in Hartington Road as a result of his Viaduct Road piece last month.
There’s a couple of good pictures at the link.
Weekend Gaming Goodness – Awesome:
The Simpsons trivia tournament was, as many predicted it would be, perfectly cromulent.
The questions were tough, the players were nerds. I went into that tournament all but certain we’d win; we placed fourth.I am an early Simpsons nut and the questions were all from seasons three to ten. How could I fail? I’ll tell you how: questions like What is the name of the gun store from which Homer buys his gun?
Fourth. Shameful.
Really though, my friends and I had a blast. The host was dressed as Otto and the prize for winning was an inanimate carbon rod.
Our team name? Worker and Parasite.
PeteSnyder on Twitter – Apparently there’s now a “Bartman” sculpture in front of the FOX News headquarters:
Old Money – I love that wool shawls are in “Activewear”:
-“Grandma’s World” has to be real store somewhere.
Brush With Greatness – Ah, for when Homer’s screams were quick and meant something:
-My favorite part of the episode? Probably Homer’s reaction to seeing Burns in his house. He screams the most abrupt scream in the history of television.
Round 1, Battle 6 – (S.9 Ep. 16) Dumbbell Indemnity vs (S.2 Ep. 1) Bart Gets an “F” – That’s an easy one.
Round 1, Battle 7 – (S.8 Ep.14) The Twisted World of Marge Simpson vs. (S.7 Ep. 11) Scenes from a Class Struggle in Springfield – That’s close, but I gotta go with those stuck up rich snobs and their abalone sandwiches.
Round 1 – Battle 8 – (S.8 Ep.16) Brother From Another Series vs (S.8 Ep. 20) The Canine Mutiny – Yeah, gotta go with the Sideshow brothers there.
Round 1 Battle 9 – (S. 2 Ep. 22) Blood Feud vs (S. 3 Ep. 5) Homer Defined – Oof, that’s rough.
TV Pick of the Day – Heh:
Watch it for: Some dark Simpsons gags (think cops and brothels), a lesson in the dangers of the household rake.
You may remember me from such shows watched from the set of $ale….. – Heh.
Tao of Homer – Philly sports bar heh.
Hello Kitty x The Simpsons – One of the shirts in the wild on a real person.
This leaked Sony email helps explain why most Hollywood movies are garbage – Excellent usage:
Shore’s email (Subject: “Spidey thought”) reads like the pitch scene from the Poochie episode of The Simpsons (“He needs more attitude!“) It imagines an EDM blasting, Tough Mudder-running, Snapchat-obsessed douchebag Spider-Man.
Sony: The Studio That Makes FOX Look Competent.
Doctor Who and The Simpsons among the most important television articles on Wikipedia – Well, most referenced, anyway.
The Simpsons Transcend the Apocolypse in Mr. Burns: A Post-Electric Play – The Vegas version of the play has some seriously creepy Simpsons masks. Bravo.
Ignore the news and watch The Simpsons – Good advice:
Thoughtful investors know their job is to restrain the reflexive response, which produces behaviour that is the very antithesis of intelligent investing.
I follow the maxim of a commentator who said: “The best thing to do at key turning points is to ignore the news completely and watch the Simpsons”.
I have found this to be good advice.
Minecraft PS4 Adds The Simpsons DLC This Week – That is all.
Cate Street deal shows danger of crony capitalism – Excellent reference:
Given all that, the idea that Maine might end up playing Springfield to Cate Street’s Lyle Lanley should come as no surprise. The only difference between the Cate Street scheme and Lyle Lanley selling Springfield a monorail in “The Simpsons” with the city’s nuclear fallout settlement money is that at least Springfield was lucky enough to have Marge Simpson as a lone voice of reason. Though she was completely ignored, she argued to use the settlement money on traditional infrastructure improvements, like repairing Main Street.
Under the dome in Augusta, there was no Marge Simpson: the New Market tax credit plan sailed through with bipartisan support.
