weird just casually watching simpsons and "too many presidents, please eliminate 3, i am not a crackpot" just float by, as if they aren't super important

This was the chalkboard gag the week after they got dropped from the spokesman gig.

Bart writing "I will not bite the hand that feeds me Butterfingers" on the chalkboard.

The Simpsons doing this joke and immediately getting dropped by Butterfinger is so funny.

Officer Eddie hauling a pile of Butterfingers to a fire.

"All right, time to throw in the Butterfingers."

They jump out of the fire.

Eddie: Hmm, it's not even singed.

Wiggum: Even the fire doesn't want them.

Chamber and Husk be like:

Husk (thoughts): ...if only I could tell him...

Panel from a Radioactive Man comic.

Two superheroes, Captain Squid and Lure Lass, think to themselves.

Captain Squid (thought bubble): Perhaps one day I'll have the courage to take Lure lass in my arms and...no! Surely she is repulsed by the freakish, squid-like tentacles which I conceal beneath my gloves...

Lure Lass (thought bubble): Capt. Squid is so cold...so distant! Yet how I long to feel the embrace of his freakish, squid-like tentacles!

Constantly oscillating between these two sentiments.

It's so absurd that I cannot hold it in my memory after I stop thinking about it. Every time someone brings to the front of my mind that there is a controversy, I have to learn the bizarre alternate interpretation anew. "Oh boy, cleaning the toilet! That's where I'm a viking!"

Further, where is the JOKE if he’s simply excited about dreaming he’s a Viking? That’s just a relatable pleasure. And his ability to fall asleep instantly? A Viking-tier ability if ever there was one. I have to put my phone down and walk away.

this is preposterous. Ralph Wiggum is a strange child. The idea that he would create a Viking-tier of achievement is entirely reasonable, especially since he seems not to be a Viking anywhere else.

To me it's so obviously that Ralph has dreams in which he is a Viking -- this feels so much more clear-cut than something like "you'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel" -- but apparently there's even dissention among the writers about what it's supposed to mean.

Prior to this ep, Ralph had jokes about seeing Snagglepuss and eating paste. He’s a simple boy who likes to flatly announces what he likes/sees, and at his season 7 level of intelligence, Raph wouldn’t know what a metaphor is to say that being “a Viking” means you are very good at doing something

“Viking=Good at Sleep” was a wild interpretation to me when I 1st heard others describe that meaning, but I’ve learned to treat these people with respect. But I’ve NEVER wavered from “When Ralph dreams, he sees himself as a Viking.” And this is what the episode’s showrunner David Mirkin has said too

The notion that Ralph Wiggum can construct a complex metaphorical thought that's essentially "I am so good at sleep I am like unto a viking in my sleeping ability! I am, to create a new idiom, a sleep viking!" is patently absurd, sir. Ralph Wiggum, sir.

@hotdogsladies.bsky.social I would never in a billion years have interpreted "Oh boy, sleep! That's where I'm a viking!" the way you did/claimed is the obvious and most common interpretation.Totally take it the other way @siracusa.social mentioned.

Man, a joke about socialist pirates not bothering to lock the brig doors... Maybe I should sue.

Panel from the comic The Apex Society. Pharoah with his hands on cell doors. In the foreground, Charles Apex grumbles at Viper. In the background, outside the cell, various pirates party.

Viper: I just like pirates, is all.

Pharoah: Hey, wait a minute!

Pharoah opens the cell.

Pharoah: Our cell door isn't even locked!

Pirate: O' course, me hearty! There's ain't no prisons in Libertatia! We was just "holdin'" ye here till our duly elected ambassador to the outside world arrived to meet with ye.

I've grown to really hate "The Simpsons started in a time where a single-income family could own this house" engagement bait, there's a 30-year-old episode about how their lives were so facially absurd it drove a rational man insane
