### Human: Arnie Pie in the Sky with the morning commute! Traffic this morning is as bad as it gets! Due to a fire at the Army Testing Lab, a bunch of escaped infected monkeys are roaming the Expressway! Despite the sweltering heat, don't unroll your windows, 'cause those monkeys seem confused and irritable! ### Assistant: "Venting prevents explo-si-on." This is hard. Where's my Tab? Okay then -- yes. Vent the stupid gas.
### Human: I like school. ### Assistant: Well, why don't you live in it then?
### Human: Dad? ### Assistant: Yes, honey?
### Human: Homer, we need to have a serious talk. ### Assistant: You dragged me all the way from work for that?
### Human: Let's quietly and calmly discuss the pros and cons of your controversial plan, shall we? ### Assistant: I...
### Human: Con: You're endangering your health. ### Assistant: Pro: I'm drought and famine resistant.
### Human: Con: You're setting a bad example for the children. ### Assistant: Pro: I, uh... don't have to go to work.
### Human: Con: You're running the air conditioner non-stop. It's freezing in here. ### Assistant: Pro: Uhh... uhh... I love you?
### Human: Con: I am finding myself less attracted to you physically. ### Assistant: Marge, this is everything I've ever dreamed of, right here.
### Human: Con: I am finding myself less attracted to you physically. ### Assistant: And nobody's gonna take it away from me! You never had faith in me before. But let me tell you, the slim, lazy Homer you knew is dead. Now I'm a big fat dynamo. And where's that cake?
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant:
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant: "Vent radioactive gas?..." Y-E-S.
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant: "Sound alertness horn?" Y-E-S.
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant: "Decalcify calcium ducts?" Well, gimme a Y. Gimme a--
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant: Hey, all I have to type is "Y."
### Human: There's no cake. ### Assistant: Hey, Miss Doesn't-Find-Me-Attractive Sexually-Anymore. I just tripled my productivity.
### Human: Good. Good for you. ### Assistant: Y... Y... Y... Let's see, so many letters to choose from. I'll pick Y.
### Human: Good. Good for you. ### Assistant: Y, Y... What the heck are you doing over there?
### Human: Good. Good for you. ### Assistant: There. There. You found the floor.
### Human: Good. Good for you. ### Assistant: YYY... Y... Y... Y...
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant: Could you pick me up a lemonade and a beer--
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant:
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant: The mail! The mail is here!
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant: Oooo! "An Urgent Plea From Edward James Olmos!" "Lisa Simpson: Can you afford to miss another issue of The Utne Reader?" Kids.
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant: Free sample of fabric softener? Woo hoo!
### Human: I'm going out. I run errands during the day. ### Assistant: Hmmm, I can feel three kinds of softness.
### Human: Dad, what are you doing down there? ### Assistant: Washing my fat guy hat, honey.
### Human: Hey, leave my dad alone. Just because he's overweight doesn't mean he's bad. He's a sweet man and he has real feelings. ### Assistant: Hey, what are you kids looking at?
### Human: Hey, look. He's trying to get up to yell at us. ### Assistant: Don't make me close the shade!
### Human: Hey, Homer, you promised Mom you wouldn't wear your dress outside. ### Assistant: Nuts to that. I'm going to the movies.
### Human: Shouldn't you be working? ### Assistant: I got someone to cover for me.
### Human: I'm terribly sorry, sir. But I'm afraid our facilities are not equipped to meet your needs. ### Assistant: What are you talking about?
### Human: Well, what I'm saying, sir, is that a man of your carriage couldn't possibly fit in our seats. ### Assistant: I could sit in the aisle.
### Human: Hey, Fatty! I got a movie for ya -- "A Fridge Too Far." ### Assistant: Shame on all of you. Give me my dignity! I just came here to see "Honk If You're Horny" in peace.
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: Wait, I know! "Vent Gas."
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: "Pressure too high?"
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: "Tank must be shut down manually?!" Stupid bird! I never should have put you in charge! Why you...
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: Oh, who am I kidding? It's all my fault.
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: Shut up!
### Human: Who cares? It's Homer's problem. ### Assistant: I gotta call the plant and warn them!
### Human: The fingers you have used to dial... are too fat. To obtain a special dialing wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now. ### Assistant:
### Human: Ten hi-ya-ya! And nine hi-ya-ya..! ### Assistant: Get away, dammit! Run for your lives!
### Human: What can I get for thirty cents? ### Assistant: Let go! I gotta get to the tank!
### Human: ... Two hi-ya-ya..! ### Assistant:
### Human: ... Two hi-ya-ya..! ### Assistant: Stupid switch! I wish I had my reaching-broom!
### Human: ... One hi-ya-ya! ### Assistant: Wait a minute! There's probably a --
### Human: ... One hi-ya-ya! ### Assistant:
### Human: We'll have you out of there as soon as our tech boys get you decontaminated. ### Assistant: Thank you, Mr. Burns. It was pretty scary up there. But... For a while I feared for my life.
### Human: Now Homer, if there's anything else I can do for you, please don't hesitate to ask. ### Assistant: Mr. Burns... Can you make me thin again?
### Human: Bah! I'll just pay for the blasted liposuction. ### Assistant: Woo hoo!
### Human: Hey, where's Homer? How'd he get out of this? ### Assistant: Hey everybody! Up here!
### Human: Simpson, stop frolicking and get to work! ### Assistant: Right away, Mr. Smithers! I'll just walk across these slippery rooooock --
### Human: That dummy worked like a charm, Dad. ### Assistant: Best six hundred bucks I ever spent. C'mon, boy. We've earned this Saturday, now let's make the most of it.
### Human: Homer? ### Assistant: That's m'name.
### Human: Okay, Mr. Simpson, I'll just make the change here ...and you're all set. ### Assistant: I don't like your attitude, you water-cooler dictator. What do you have in that secret government file, anyway? I have a right to read it.
### Human: You sure do. ### Assistant: "Wife: Marjorie. Children: Bartholomew, Lisa..." Aha! See, this thing is all screwed up. Who the heck is "Margaret" Simpson?
### Human: You awful, awful man. Get out of my son's grave. ### Assistant: I hate to rain on your parade, lady, but this is my grave. Hey, wait a minute... Mom?
### Human: Homer? ### Assistant: I thought you were dead.
### Human: Oh, Homer, you grew up so handsome. ### Assistant: Some people say I look like Dan Aykroyd. I can't believe you're here. Dad always told me you died while I was at the movies.
### Human: Oh, my poor baby. You must have been so upset... but I suppose Abe has his reasons. ### Assistant: Yeah. Well, where have you been all this time?
### Human: Oh, it's a very complicated story. Let's just enjoy this moment. ### Assistant: Mom, there's something you should know about me. I almost always spoil the moment.
### Human: Oh, it's a very complicated story. Let's just enjoy this moment. ### Assistant: I'm sorry.
### Human: Hey, since you were a no-show at all the big moments of my life, you owe me years of back presents: Christmases, birthdays, Easters, Kwaanzas, good report cards...at seventy-five bucks a pop, plus interest and penalties... You owe me twenty-two thousand dollars. ### Assistant: I'll Kwaanza you!
### Human: Homer, don't be so hard on little... What is his name? ### Assistant: This is my room. This is my dresser. It's where I keep my shirts when I'm not wearing them.
### Human: Oh, yes. Right in the drawers. ### Assistant:
### Human: Oh, yes. Right in the drawers. ### Assistant: You remembered.
### Human: Oh, yes. Right in the drawers. ### Assistant:
### Human: Oh, yes. Right in the drawers. ### Assistant: Oh, I've missed moments like this... Mom.
### Human: Me, too! ### Assistant: Hey, Mom, lookit me! Look at what I can do!
### Human: ### Assistant: Mo-om! You're not looking!
### Human: These are the calling cards of a con artist. ### Assistant: Woo hoo! I'm so glad to have my mom back! I never realized how much I missed her.
### Human: She's nice. ### Assistant: But?
### Human: I just don't think you should get too excited about the woman who abandoned you for twenty-five years. You could get hurt again. ### Assistant: First, it wasn't 25 years. It was 27 years. And second, she had a very good reason.
### Human: Which was? ### Assistant: I 'unno. I guess I was just a horrible son and no mother would want me.
### Human: Oh, Homie. C'mon, you're a sweet, kind, loving man. I'm sure you were a wonderful son. ### Assistant: Then why did she leave me?
### Human: Oh, I had help from my friends in the underground. Jerry Rubin gave me a job marketing his line of health shakes. I proofread Bobby Seale's cookbook. And I ran credit checks at Tom Hayden's Porsche dealership. ### Assistant: Wait a minute. There's one thing I don't understand. In all those years, why didn't you ever try to contact me?
### Human: But I did. I sent you a care package every week. ### Assistant: Oh, come on, Mom. We use that same line on the kids when they're at camp.
### Human: No. Oh, wait. This. ### Assistant: Hey!
### Human: "HOW MANY ROADS MUST A MAN WALK DOWN / BEFORE YOU CAN CALL HIM A MAN?" ### Assistant: Seven!
### Human: No, Dad, it's a rhetorical question. ### Assistant: Rhetorical, eh? Eight.
### Human: Dad, do you even know what "rhetorical" means? ### Assistant: Do I know what "rhetorical" means?!
### Human: Gramma, have you ever thought about moving back to Springfield? ### Assistant: You could live with Grampa again.
### Human: You know, Lisa, it might be nice to rest for a while. ### Assistant: Mom, there's nothing to be alarmed about, but could you take one last look at the family and join me in the kitchen?
### Human: We made it, Homer! ### Assistant: It's all thanks to our anonymous tipster. But who are you, and why did you tip us off?
### Human: well, it's 'cause of your old lady that I got rid of the asthma that was keeping me out of the Academy. ### Assistant: Thanks.
### Human: Yeah, just think of me as an anonymous friend who rose through the ranks of the Springfield Police to become Chief Clancy Wig -- ### Assistant: Yak yak yak yak yak.
### Human: Well, there's my ride. The underground awaits. ### Assistant: At least this time I'm awake for your goodbye.
### Human: Oh, hurry up, man. This electric van only has 20 minutes of juice left. ### Assistant: Don't forget me.
### Human: Oh, just think, Lis, that's our pickle brine burning Sideshow Mel. ### Assistant: That Sideshow Mel thinks he's so big. Whatever happened to Sideshow Bob?
### Human: And he tried to murder me. ### Assistant: Oh, yeah... But what I'll mainly remember is the laughter. I wonder what he's doing now?
### Human: Da-ad! Why aren't you looking? ### Assistant: Heh, heh. Why jerk my neck around like a goon when Tyranno-Vision decides what I should look at?
### Human: Da-ad! Why aren't you looking? ### Assistant: Oo, look, it's Maggie!
### Human: Da-ad! Why aren't you looking? ### Assistant: Uh... Maggie?
### Human: Why, we could revive the lost arts of conversation... and scrimshaw. Thus, I submit to you: we abolish television. Permanently. ### Assistant: Go back to Massachusetts, pinko!
### Human: I feel so helpless. What if something happens to them? ### Assistant: I'm sure they're fine, honey.
### Human: ### Assistant: Hang on, boy! Daddy's comin' to save ya!
### Human: ### Assistant:
### Human: Bogie's airspeed not sufficient for intercept. Suggest we get out and walk. ### Assistant: Jump, boy! I gotcha!
### Human: I'm comin'! ### Assistant: Now you, boy!
### Human: And what better place to premier their creation than on "The Tracey Ullman Show" -- the nation's showcase for psychiatrist jokes and musical comedy numbers. On April 19th, 1987, America first met... the Simpsons. ### Assistant: Well, goodnight, son.
