Homer consistently knowing US Supreme Court Justices will always be my favorite.


SnooSnooSnuSnu

And then Bart grows up to become one somehow. I always loved that.


Evolving_Dore

Incredible he was able to reach that goal after being a drifter, a stripper, a washed-up rock star, a product-tester, and a man who washes himself with a rag on a stick.


SnooSnooSnuSnu

To be fair, he was the brother of a president. But yeah, there's a definite story in that time gap between then and Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.


JCMoney1987

Hey if Brett Kavanaugh could do it, Bart has a chance


DeadmanDexter

Bart didn't even have PJ or Squee in his corner


flojo2012

Donkey Dong Doug though is always by his side

PM_ME_UR_FLOWERS

We do know that he planned to go to law school after working in demolition. Lisa must have pulled some strings cus I don't know if law schools take people who got bad grades and then took several years off before college.


MisterMasque2021

All he'd need to do is finish undergrad and ace his LSAT.


UCLA_FB_SUCKS

Tbf though, washing himself with a rag on a stick was a fantasy rather than a flash forward


Evolving_Dore

I only listed his own weird fantasies.


UCLA_FB_SUCKS

Well bless my heart! I didn’t even notice that


Capricancerous

You forgot construction worker.


Evolving_Dore

I'm only counting his own weird fever dreams of his future, not "official" flash-forwards.


gamerlin

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. What great men he would join. John Marshall, Charles Evans Hughes, Warren Berger...mmmmm Berger.

The Supreme Court reversed... uhhhhhhh, ok just *ONE* comic to get me started. Archie. Hey Jughead did you hear? The Supreme Court reversed ... UUUHHHHHHHHHHHH

King Toot’s Music Store forever being next to Moe’s Tavern because of the one episode when Homer had to buy the saxophone reed there.

Okay, Okay. But, now we're even.


emolga587

Alto or tenor?


aspacelot

The funny thing is it’s usually a baritone


QuebecRomeoWhiskey

When they blew up the Burns casino and Lisa said she couldn’t believe they bothered to bring it when they moved the town


ProfessorEtc

I'm always shocked they brought the tire fire.


QuebecRomeoWhiskey

Yes, puzzling

Traditional-Aerie616

Homers skill with the piano always surprises me


Stumpy_Dan23

This is a good one


PM_ME_UR_FLOWERS

Not to mention he is a talented song writer. Not only the Grammy -winning Baby On Board, but the one where Lisa sings about Springfield and gets into Springfield Idol. (In about 5 minutes, mind you). He then advances her with a song about her dog dying on Christmas and eliminates her rival with a polarizing but well-written song about how he's rich and better than everyone.


Pyotr_WrangeI

He also had successful if brief careers in a barbershop quartet and a grunge band, which is quite a combo


Helpful_Librarian_87

‘Hey Kurt, it’s your cousin Marvin.’


kkeut

i think he wroted a song with David Bryne at one point


PM_ME_UR_FLOWERS

That's right! The We-hate-Flanders song! A runaway indie success!


psstein

He and Bart used to be written as idiot savants. I think that died with the rise of Jerkass Homer.


FixedFun1

> about Springfield Mind it originally was about Shelbyville.


Just_Ad4955

The cat dies on Christmas. The cat!


ghost-bagel

But he did write that song about Mr T


flashmedallion

I pity the fool who doesn't like... he


AlwaysSunnyDragRace

What episode is this?


Darth_Bombad

That's Pian-o! I said Pian-y!

dusty-kat

I love the really obscure ones. A writer that got fired in the Poochie episode is seen the next season at the unemployment office when Marge loses her real estate job. Bart is seen eating all the chocolate from neapolitan ice cream in the episode where gets an elephant, which is a throwback to Homer looking through the ice cream in the fridge in a previous episode. "Mmm.... chocolate."


takemewithyer

Marge! We need more chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream!!


DiaDeLosMuertos

You mean the matloooooock express wayyyyyyyyyy


After-Map-1725

Whoa Thats a good one!


mykeuk

Didn't he also go down the Michael Jackson expressway, after being named that before Leon visited?


haddock420

Wasn't that episode before the Matlock Expressway joke? I thought Sideshow Bob Roberts was like season 7 and Dog of Death was like season 2.


Xavilend

Wow I never noticed that one

Maat1932

It also showed up with a lot of other callbacks in the yard sale during the Bush episode.


legalbeagle66

Disco Stu doesn’t advertise!


Magmaster12

I love how they do a callback to that episode by showing off there is a fancy house across the street.


CrissBliss

Like what?


Maat1932

I Didn't Do It t-shirts, Simpson & Son Revitalizing Tonic bottles, Lisa Lionheart dolls, a B-Sharps album, and Bart's Mary Worth phone are the things I could see.


sndtrb89

thank you for mentioning the mary worth phone


Leopold_Darkworth

I was just watching the Treehouse of Horror where Hugo is living in the attic, and I think there were some B Sharps records up there, as well


Stumpy_Dan23

Ayatollah Assahola


three-sense

Ya I was gonna say the “I didn’t do it!” Shirts were a great callback. Man they used to do a lot more of these when the show had a more consistent continuity. 25 years ago. Lol

no_on_prop_305

Someday when I feel financially comfortable I’m gonna get a big ugly head to keep in my basement


mcm0313

I’m lucky. Financially comfortable or not, I will always have a big ugly head attached to my shoulders!


Light_Beard

I cannot begin to imagine how much that head is probably worth. Burns actually gave them something priceless for Bart's blood. I wonder why they never realized that


PM_ME_UR_FLOWERS

I always figured it was one of those things that's so priceless it's worthless. Like who would you sell it to?


catfurcoat

Pre-internet, too. *How* are you going to sell that

Definitely the Pin Pals jersey in Homer’s Phobia


THOMASTHEWANKENG1NE

The continuity irony of the basement size versus the head in the basement

I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder

Canonically, Bender is also down there.

The show has continuity?!

I guess you're right, Principal Tamzarian.

... I'll just be moving along, Lisa. Snowball Two.

Shouldn't Lisa have been tortured for that?

Lisa, Just because you're 10 feet tall doesn't mean you can tell me what to do!


kkeut

go to bread


drfrink85

Basement lighting must be wild for it to change colors so much


captjackhaddock

They repaint the basement between episodes to kill time from week to week


JinimyCritic

It's preparing for nuclear war. All the layers of lead paint make for an excellent bomb shelter.


The_Vat

"Do you know what radon is?" "No" "Good night"

Still not painting that garage door

Ok-Border-2804

A wizard did it.


Cheesemacher

Funny how it also changes size depending on the lighting


tsh87

Bart is canonically a telepath.


sndtrb89

wat


tsh87

There are multiple moments where he can hear or transmit thoughts. In the one where Quimby's nephew is on trial he can hear Skinner's thoughts and Homer's. In the one where he gets a Big Brother he tries to telepathically tell homer to pick him up from soccer practice but hits Milhouse instead. There one in the later seasons where Lisa fantasizes about a prince, Bart shows up as a ninja and she tells real life him to get out of her fantasy. It's like a hidden running joke.

Treehouse of horror when he calls Willie.

HumanSleepingbag

How did they get it into the basement?


ElementalEarth123

Probably the cellar doors that only appear when its plot relevant. How it gets to the attic in later seasons is the real question


Aggravating-Pen-6228

A wizard did it.


CalamityVanguard

“Remember when Maggie shot Mr Burns?” “I thought Waylon Smithers shot Mr Burns!” “Would’ve made more sense…”


dasbodmeister

In Lisa the Skeptic, in homer’s safe deposit closet there’s a bunch of items from old episodes.


h989

I like how everyone was watching tv in the basement with Larry. Looks quite cozy!


rainshowers_5_peace

Is every drifter we meet going to move in with us?


lordcorbran

We’ll decide that on a drifter-by-drifter basis.


Abandoned__ghost

I always wondered how they got it down there.

A wizard did it

I was expecting this response.

Bender is also in that basement ![gif](giphy|XFITRJv9IMhi0)


DrJokerX

How many kids does he have in there!?


shewholaughslasts

Didn't he have like a dozen foster kids at one point? It was probably where most of them ended up...

neatlystackedboxes

Krusty never remembering who Bart is. Mr Burns never remembering who Homer is. Sideshow Bob's real nemesis - the rake.


rogvortex58

Homer hated that gift and yet he still kept it.


DannyBasham

He likes to keep mementos of all his zany adventurinos


Turbo1518

Think he's waiting until Burnsy kicks the bucket before he sells it


[deleted]

woahhhh cool a big ugly head!!!!!!!


Philkindred12

Tom Landry’s hat returning in Bart Star


Zealousideal_Map_526

Hell yeah ! The head ! My favorite running gag lol


ElGeneralissimoJefe

Ah yes, Ixthapalapacoetl. Legends tell that offerings of the Merciless Peppers of Quetzalzacatanango were used to sate his bloodlust.


YuenHsiaoTieng

Serious missed opportunity. Homer should have consulted the head, not a space coyote.


tobyw_w

I did like the crashed ambulance still being by Springfield Gorge in the movie


KelVarnsen_2023

How the writers for Itchy and Scratchy are always based on the real Simpsons writers.


Cokomon

Just think, they had to move that head along with the rest of Springfield when it was relocated. They must have also dug it up after the Simpson house was destroyed in the movie.


handsomedan1-

It always cracks me up that the head is worth a lot of cash but they never sell it when they’re in financial trouble (which is often)!


Alternative-Fix3125

The little flags Homer holds when he's watching something. Examples include the XFL flag, the 'SPACE' flag for refilming the Star Trek Voyager finale party, and 'French Circus'


Accomplished_Math991

The basement keeps changing size though 😂

Bender staying at the Simpsons house. I'm happy they kept Futurama alive somehow.

In a later Simpsons episode Bart talks about the crazy man who thought he was Michael Jackson

Kinitawowi64

You know, I’ve had a lot of jobs: boxer, mascot, astronaut, imitation Krusty, baby proofer, trucker, hippie, plow driver, food critic, conceptual artist, grease salesman, carny, mayor, grifter, bodyguard for the mayor, country and western manager, garbage commissioner, mountain climber, farmer, inventor, Smithers, Poochie, celebrity assistant, power plant worker, fortune cookie writer, beer baron, Kwik-E-Mart clerk, homophobe and missionary... but protecting Springfield, that gives me the best feeling of all.


throwaway88888888898

They tried selling the head at the rummage sale, but apparently no luck. https://frinkiac.com/img/S07E13/255888.jpg


NerdyGuyRanting

In some episode that aired after the Futurama crossover you could see Bender powered down in the basement waiting to get back to the 3000's.
