What do you think is the funniest Homer line

I once saw an episode where the family goes to a bookshop and Bart buys and starts reading"the art of war" and latter uses his gained knowledge on Homer. I really enjoyed the episode back when I watched it specially because I had read "the art of war" recently myself but I never found it again, those anyone know wich episode am I talking about?

I was just thinking about how the Flanders don't eat sugar and while I believe this is based on the guy who made saltines or something who was ultra religious - could there have been a practical reason? No sugar, we see they eat cucumbers with cottage cheese (Flanders nachos), liking water etc.

Just a one off thought I had about it. I would find it interesting

Took me more than 30 years to learn this was an actual song:

Hi! I'm looking for a specific episode where the only thing I remember is one gag. It consisted of two trucks crashing into each other. Both of them had different products/chemicals which, if combined, may have exploded. However, it doesn't happen. Another truck crashes into them, with also some chemical that might cause an explosion. Again, nothing happens. Out of nowhere a truck with explosives crashes into them and everything explodes.

Honestly I remember laughing my ass off but I couldn't remember the episode it was from. Does anybody know?

What are your all-time favorite Homer lines?

Because as we all know, some of the best observations come from the mind and mouth of Homer J. Simpson.

For me it would be:

The Couches attack one.

The minecraft one.

The Frozen parody one.

And every single cough gags made by Bill Plympton

Just watched season 36 episodes 12, 13 and 14. Got 15 on now.

Feels like the longest back to back run of near classic Simpsons of the old days quality there has been seasons. Nothing really stand out amazing, but really not too bad at all. Very watchable.

Personally I wish we saw more of Guy Incognito or Joey Jojo Junior Shabadoo.

Does anyone know?

I get it’s a nice ending for Lisa but it was kind of a weird ending for the episode. Was it just narratively to show that Bart didn’t ‘win’ and a ‘reward’ for all the torture Lisa was put though for the episode and not to leave it on a downer? Was it a commentary on people valuing their free time over hiring ‘irresponsible’ people to watch their children? After the initial shock wear off did the town collectively remember ‘oh yeah it’s Bart Simpson, actually it sounds like he did all cause that to happen to himself just to bully Lisa who we all agree is generally honest and trustworthy anyway’?

Lisa and Paul Anka were right. Maybe if we stop paying attention to these monsters, they'll go away?

I was rewatching s09 and suddenly realised how incredible this shot is, in a mostly predigital era. It's a long tracking, orbital shot of the Simpsons crossing the river as they leave NewYork city.

This shot was most likely rotoscoped from helicopter footage, and it shows a sense of volume rarely seen in the series before modern era. The background, during the mid section, resolves with buildings flickering here and there, which I assume is down to the artists' limited time (it's a very time consuming process), and how difficult it must have been to track so many buildings from frame to frame.

Anyway, as I admired the shot it got me thinking of which shot, in the series - but preferably from the classic era- was the most masterful, from an artistic or technical aspect. Thoughts?

I know he brewed and sold sex tonic for a time before Homer was born and that he was a veteran. He also did some mountaineering. Did he work the family farm?

I haven’t seen much of the last dozen seasons so maybe it’s all been laid out.

What’s canon on this?

What episode is that?
