Let the bears pay the bear tax, I pay the Homer tax.

Yeah, Homer's delivery on "Homer!" may be my favourite joke in the episode.

I hope whoever is managing Anthony Weiner's campaign for mayor of New York City calls himself the "leader of the Weiner patrol" and that any time he has to read anything, he announces that the leader of the weiner patrol is boning up on his nerd lessons.

Well, yeah, that was the thing about classic Simpsons: even if you took off all the truly brilliant twists on sitcom conventions and just left the sitcom conventions, its take on those conventions is still funny as hell.

Sims, your Simpsons write-ups are surprisingly non-awful. Let me be the first to say, I wish I had your sweet can.

Back then, you couldn't say "pants" on TV. I was banned for ten years.

Hard-earned wisdom: there are few occasions when quoting the Simpsons is not a good idea, but when you're meeting your new boss for the first time and it turns out she has a serious weight problem, you might want to shelve this one. Sincerely, The Unemployed Baron.

No, I've seen all the episodes of all the seasons. R.C. hasn't been voted out in any other ones that I'm aware of. Therefore, worst episode ever. Man, I'm going to miss her.

My least-favourite Survivor episode ever. Terrible gameplay from almost everybody - the only people who benefit at all from tonight's vote are Abi, Pete, and Artis, i.e., the very worst people out there.

My favourite thing about Denise is how if there's anyone around, she goes into therapist mode, complete with Lady Frasier voice, but then in her confessionals? Boom. Just an awesome lady telling it like it is. "You're religious? Fuck you. I make my own luck."

Maybe it's just that I'm Canadian and we're soft, but there simply aren't circumstances under which I'd threaten to kill someone ("hyperbole", "joking",…
