QotD: Bite My Shiny Metal Ass
by Michele Christopher

As most of you know, tomorrow is the day turtle heads to NY. So we are both just a little busy today trying to get ourselves together and get things ready for this week. Sometimes that means actually doing things (like me cleaning my house or turtle going to drop off his dog with a friend) and sometimes it means just worrying about a lot of things we can't control. I swear to you, if that dude in Iran blows up the world tomorrow like he said he would, I'm going to be really, really pissed off.

benhom.jpgSo today is going to be light. We'll have something later this afternoon and our usual night time post, but this morning, we are both running around doing stuff and I know we said that on Fridays we would do a Question of the Day thing, but here it is Monday and we're gonna do one again.

Being that I am alternating between watching The Simpsons Season 4 DVD (the best season, by the way) and Futurama Season 1 as I clean, I'll just throw out a really simple QotD today:

What's your favorite quote(s) from The Simpsons or Futurama? Or what are your favorite episodes? And does anyone else think Bender is kinda sexy?

Comments

Ok, here it is. I am guessing this comment will get me all sorts of grief, but here goes (Michele knows this but may have forgotten):

I have never seen an episode of 'The Simpsons.' Not a single one.

I don't have anything against it. I have just never watched.

--------------


"like they all come from some mystical animal..." -- homer to lisa in regards to pork, ham AND bacon...

--------------


I will not hold it against you, jay. Not at all. Nope. Futurama?

My favorite Simpsons moment, comes from Homerpalazoo, when Homer meets the Smashing Pumpkins and Bill Corgan introduces himself.

"Bill Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins"
Homer Simpson, smiling politely"


--------------


Remembered as best I can: "The way you mispronounce lots of things, like the way you keep saying 'ask' instead of 'ax.'" - Leela, Futurama.

--------------


I forget who he was talking to, but one of my favorite Simpson's lines is the exchange about unicorns in space.
Guy: "They're in space, what are they breathing?"
Homer: "Air"
Guy: "Mr Simpson, there's no air in space."
Homer:"There's an air in space museum."

Or, "Do I know what a rhetorical question is?" Homer asked rhetorically.

"Everyone's always in favour of saving Hitler's brain. But when you put it in the body of a great white shark, ooohh! Suddenly you've gone too far!" - Professor

God: Bender, being God isn't easy. If you do too much, people get dependent on you. And if you do nothing, they lose hope. You have to use a light touch, like a safecracker or a pickpocket.

Bender: Or a guy who burns down a bar for the insurance money.

God: Yes, if he makes it look like an electrical thing. If you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.


My favorite episode is anthology of interest:

Lrrr: You are defeated! Instead of shooting where I was, you should have shot at where I was going to be. Muahahahaha!

--------------


I'm one of those people who should have been watching Futurama when it was on Fox and didn't... I'll just say I'm sorry now... However, once it was on Adult Swim, I caught every episode, religiously....


"Sweet Zombie Jesus!" - The Professor

"Hey. What kind of party is this? There's no booze and only one hooker." - Bender

Bender: Oww, I think I got whiplash.
Leela: You can't have whiplash, you don't even have a neck!
Bender: I mean ass whiplash.

"Why am I sticky and naked? Did I miss something fun?" - Fry

"Call me cocky, but if there's an alien out there I can't kill I haven't met him and killed him yet. But I can't go it alone. That's why I'm ordering every available ship to report for duty. Anyone without a ship should secure a weapon and fire wildly into the air." - Zapp Branigan

Oh, and the reason Bender's sexy....

He's the perfect man.

--------------


Homer: there's three ways to do things. The right way, the wrong way, and the MAx Power way!
Lisa: isn't that just the wrong way?
H: yes, but faster.

Amazonians: You are sentenced to death by snu snu!
Fry:I never thought I'd die this way, but I'd always hoped.

I thougth everyone's favorite futurama episode is jurassic bark.

i cried. i know you did too.

--------------


Yes. I cried. A lot.

--------------


the thing with these kinds of questions is most crap goes in one ear and out the other for me. I just watched the Exmas episode of futurama last night. There was tons of funny shit. Could i recite any of it? Hell no.

--------------


oh yeah and i've been stone cold sober for two weeks! See what it does to me! Christ on a stick....

--------------


i teared up reading the freaking summary of the episode! -- dogs, man... get me everytime

--------------


one of the early simpsons that always makes me cry laughing is the soapbox derby on. The episode is ok, but when Martin crashes his super soabbox cause the parachute won't come out and gets out screaming around on fire, that's humor.

"Deploy, damn you Depoly!"

--------------


Best Simpsons episode is Mr. Burns Birthday for obvious reasons.

Favorite Futurama line is in the Save the Penguins episode where Bender gets dropped into the water and says "WHAT IS THIS WATER MADE OUT OF, ICE!?"

--------------


Damn, I just watched Jurassic Bark. Why did I do that to myself?

*sniff*

--------------


OH WAIT WAIT. The best Futurama is the evil brains episode. Mostly for the line "I am a giant brain and now I am leaving for nooo raisin!" but also because it's the culmination the genius plot of the whole series, that Frye was cosmically ordained to save Earth. It's in there, watch the ones with Nibbler talking. And the one where Frye goes back in time to before he fell into the tube but makes the decision to push himself in anyway because he realizes there won't be an Earth if he doesn't do it.

All right, sadly I suck at remembering television episodes and quotes from television episodes, unless I've seen them about 10 times. Having said that, I love Futurama and Bender rocks! He is kinda sexy. In fact, I've had a saying for a few years now - Anything is improved by adding Christopher Walken or a sarcastic robot.

"Mmmmm...sacrelicious."

"Kids are great. You can teach them to hate what you hate and, with the Internet and all, they practically raise themselves." - H. Simpson
