It's unclassy and the website has no warning about such content.

Isn't it Ric's job to state the obvious? ;-)

One thing i cannot stand about the Simpsons the characters never age.

The kids are still kids when they should be like 40 years old by now,lol.

Each season of The Simpsons exists in a parallel universe, completely separate from one another.

This would explain why time never passes, no matter how long the show has been on and no matter how much time passes during each individual episode. There have been over 400 episodes to date, and yet the characters never age. Even if each episode represented one day, at least one year should have passed in their timeline; and the episode with the Itchy and Scratchy movie spans about eight months.

Also, this theory would explain the contradictory origins of each of the characters, such as the numerous accounts of how Homer and Marge met, whether they met during the 1970s, 1980s, or 1990s. And then there's the matter of why Homer is stupid - whether it's because of a gene that makes all male Simpsons become stupid as they get older, or if Homer was once a genius and a crayon that he shoved up his nose as a child made him stupid.

Each season is its own timeline, excepting Seasons 6 and 7, which are directly connected by a two-part episode and so are only one timeline. Any time an episode references events from an earlier season, they acknowledge those events as happening in Broad Strokes. When Homer asks, "Marge, what were your gambling debts last year?" he is referencing a gambling problem that Marge had; but in the reality of that episode, it might have been dealt with differently, and the characters would have been one year younger.

• A larger theory of this would be the first ten seasons are a different Springfield, sort of like Earths 1 and 2.

• Alternatively, each time an episode contradicts a previous episode we start viewing a new Springfield that doesn't have the contradicted episode in its continuity.

I was reading the unauthorized by Edgar Rice Burroughs inc adaptation of the martian series, supposedly Marvel is doing an authorized version.  which probably is changed to fit the new movie sadly.

In all fairness, the Simpsons did lampoon the endless senate scenes in Phantom Menace.

Nope, they haven't worn out. Of course, I bought them second hand, so I don't know what they were like new, but they sound and look clear enough to watch on a CRT TV made in the 90s without getting a headache or eye strain.

The last comic I finished reading was Batman: Dark Allegiances. The art was somewhere in between "meh" and "ugly", and the story was unengaging.

The comic I'm currently reading is Batman: Dark Knight Dynasty. I'm not even halfway through it yet, but so far its good.

FWIW, my pity is very much tongue in cheek.

Movies, 'cause I can still get music through them!

Monkeys or apes?

That's like asking me if I'd rather see a beloved family member become a syphilitic whore rather than a perfect stranger. The answer is obvious ...

And some positive Jar-Jar references are appearing.  (Big Bang Theory & Simpsons) 


 

More proof that The Simpsons should have been cancelled.

"The Imperial March". ANH was my least favourite film in the OT for many years partially due to it's absence.
