The biggest stereotype on that show is oafish white guy Homer.

Oh yeah... in before the lock.

Quoted from TigerLaw:

Would be an awesome license for Spooky to secure!

Quoted from KrustyBurger:

I would love to see a 3rd Simpsons pinball machine based solely on their Halloween themed shows - the 'Treehouse of Horror' episodes...

Damn.....now that's all I can think about. That would be amazing.

Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

As interesting as this is to explore this topic I feel like it's veering too far away from pinball. Maybe we can incorporate the two.
What pins would these Apu haters dislike the most?
Simpsons
Diner
Ripleys
Big Juicy Melons
Plenty more I'm sure

Don't forget the callouts in Cactus Canyon.

Wow! This thread is still going!

So one thing about me is that I'm a lifelong stutterer. The stuttering thing is weird because I can hold entire conversations without stuttering and then ten minutes later can't get a word out without stuttering, complete with face contortions. My go to joke is that I'm one broken chromosome away from being normal. My speech impediment is one reason it can be perceived that I'm a bit standoffish at pinball expos.

I grew up loving Porky Pig and laughed my ass off at Stuttering John when he was on the Howard Stern Show. Yes, I was bullied and beaten up in school, yet I have never expected society to conform to my sensitivities. I'm not saying that it's acceptable to bully or make fun of anyone, but I think we've lost the ability to laugh at ourselves now and then.

Quoted from fireball2:

Ah... My brother Yo-Din once again stirring the proverbial pot that is Pinside.
Some beautiful things about this thread:
Watching my other brother Levi kicking ass and taking names once again.
My other other brother Steve trying to be so reasonable and sane amidst the carnage.
Seeing that there are some stand up guys around here.
One handy thread has told me whom I can now flip the ignore switch on.
How Yo-Din lit this tire fire with seven words and a picture of a fictional character.

Whew....thanks for the "thumbs up", Mark.

I was a little worried that I was one of those that got their ignore switch flipped!

Can't wait to see everyone at GSPF.

C'mon now Tony-Tone-Tone, you know I ain't shy about shtuff. You'd surely have knowed by now... Although if you don't "get new glasses" soon, I'ma gonna get suspicious
See y'all in Lodi.

Costco mañana for my hearing test, Costco next week for glasses, getting my twice a week shots for allergies starting in two weeks.

I've finally decided to do all the stuff I've been putting off for years. It'll be great to hear in a crowded room, drive at night and not sneeze 200 times a day!
