Dumbass Has a Point: Difference between revisions

'''Homer:''' I'm not ''jealous'', I'm ''envious''. Jealousy is when you're worried someone will take what you have, envious is when you want something someone ''else'' has! What I feel is ''envy''!

'''Lisa:''' Hmm... ''(skims through a dictionary)'' Wow, he's right!}}

{{quote|'''Lisa''': I can't believe that extra-thick layer of pollution that I've actually picketed against burned up the comet.

'''Bart''': But what's really amazing, is that this is ''exactly'' what Dad said would happen.

'''Lisa''': Yeah, Dad was right.

'''Homer''': I know, kids. I'm scared too! }}

{{quote|'''Bart''': I think we should look at her research before we condemn her completely.

''(everyone stares at Bart, shocked)''

* Raven did this to Beast Boy in ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' at least once.

* Happens a few times in ''[[Kim Possible]]'', usually in relation to [[Sidekick|Ron Stoppable]].

{{quote|'''Edd:''' Ed, how on earth did you do that?

'''Ed:''' Because I am a brother, and Eddy's brother is a brother, and Eddy is a brother to Eddy's brother as a brother I am. }}

{{quote|'''Edd:''' Eddy, wouldn't it be easier to just--

'''Ed:''' Make funny noises?

'''Eddy:''' Ed! You found a brain! }}

* In one episode of ''[[Winnie the Pooh]]'', Pooh narrates the "Three Little Pigs" with Rabbit as the Big Bad Bunny, but the story keeps on getting derailed by Pooh's thoughts always straying toward honey. When a scene more resembling "Little Red Riding Hood" occurs, Tigger comments, "Hey, for a Big Bad Bunny, he's sure not being very bad." Rabbit (the Big Bad Bunny) replies, "For once, you're right, Tigger. We have lost track of the story, haven't we?"

* In ''[[The Venture Brothers]]'', when a spike-laden deathtrap comes closing in on them, Hank suggests they contact Dr. Orpheus. Dr. Venture vehemently objects half because Hank is a dumbass and half because he really doesn't like Dr. Orpheus. Brock outright says "I know it sounds crazy, but Hank has the ''only'' idea." Dr. Venture only relents when Brock starts lining them up for the least painful death.

* ''[[Futurama]]'':

{{quote|'''Leela:''' As unclean as it makes me feel, I agree with Bender.}}

{{quote|'''Hermes:''' Strange. Usually you don't know anything about human anatomy.

'''Zoidberg:''' I learned it in a decongestant commercial! Soothing action, action, action, action! }}

'''Ronnie:''' What? Is complicated enough without all this Evil Twin bullshit having.

'''Xtacle:''' That's... actually a good point. Good for you! }}

{{quote|'''Brittany:''' By the way, Daria, I just want you to know I think it's really brave of you to get those contact lenses and admit that you care about the way you look, even just a little. Because knowing that a brain can be worried about her looks makes me feel, um, I don't know, not so shallow or something. Like we're not that different, just human, or whatever.

''(after a moment, Daria emerges from the stall)''

'''Daria:''' Well, thank you, Brittany. You're right. We are just human or whatever. }}

* In ''[[Transformers Animated]]'', Prowl assumes Sentinel is getting help from Lockdown in capturing Megatron's lieutenants, and uses the fact that they are stripped of their equipment as evidence when confronting him. Sentinel shows him the mods and points out he'd have to be really stupid not to disarm dangerous prisoners. Prowl is correct over all, but Sentinel has a point.

** Incidentally, Starscream had escaped Sentinel's custody once before precisely because he didn't disarm him, so Prowl's assertion is based on past experience.

* ''[[Regular Show]]'': In the episode "Stick Hockey", Rigby points out that Benson does have a responsibility to trust his workers, instead of assuming they'll slack off. Then again, it's the one of the few instances where Mordecai and Rigby actually keep up their end of the bargain.

* In ''[[Batman: Assault on Arkham]]'', the [[Suicide Squad]]'s job is to, well, assault Arkham. Once they do so and gain access to the security center, they realize they could shut the camera's off to hide their activities from the outside, but once Batman realizes they're down he'll be there like a moth to a flame. Then Killer Shark - the [[Dumb Muscle]] of the group - has a good idea: replace the live footage with ''yesterday's'' footage. Unfortunately for them, it only works ''slightly'' better; Batman is too familiar with the Arkham staff, and becomes suspicious after learning of a yellow alert earlier. Still, Shark's idea may have delayed him ''a little''.
