I can't find it now, but there was a Tumblr of Buzzfeed-esque Simpsons clickbait. My absolute favorite was a picture of Bob with a rake in the face, and the caption "This man gets hit by a rake. Then another. Then another. You won't believe what happens next!".

Now THAT. IS. IRONY!

Just ask the scientician.

Now THAT is brilliant.

Your craft is a muscle! You need to exercise it!

My high school had Shakespeare editions with the 'real text' on one side and the 'dumbed down for us' text on the other. Christ.
This will help explain why the librarian tried to actively dissuade me from checking out, coincidentally, Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (my Dad had already given me a copy of…

Gwen Ihnat, good job on actually providing me some information I didn't know before (Verdict/Buckley, I have a big 70s/80s knowledge gap).

Bwahahaha!

Ffs, the unpaid internships (not a fan; had to work through summers and couldn't take 'em) could at least offer effing couse credit. In the sense of not even offering that crappy bone, if true, this is especially crap.

The SO made the horrible mistake of trying to watch it after we both got into WILTY (new season bitches! I mean wankers!). Then tried to convince me to watch it immediately after saying how surprised he was it sucked. Nice try, you clever devil.

ACTOR IN RICK LAZIO FOR SENATE COMMERCIAL!

SAY THE WHOLE WORD!

He can travel across continents in a couple of hours!

I don't know, the funniest to me will always be Coop saying "shul" instead of "school"

I gotta say… I didn't have a Hindu grandma who swooped in after her progeny was comfortably settled in America, but my best friend did. Holy crap, flashbacks. I didn't get that annoying, but that woman suffered no foolishness.

Are you being sarcastic, dude?
