Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking/Western Animation/The Simpsons: Difference between revisions

{{Trope}}

There were so many examples from the Simpsons; an entire page was required to cover it. For example, Bart Simpson is among the known examples of these since he vandalized property like writing his name on the school’s lawns, shoot down a satellite, faked a wedding that got him locked up, and is a bad speller.

* Also in "Last Exit to Springfield", Burns calls Homer, who is now the president of the plant's union, [[Weird Trade Union|the Brotherhood of Pastry Chefs, Jazz Dancers, and Nuclear Technicians]] (itself an example of the trope), up to his mansion, and gives him a tour of increasingly luxurious rooms, and ends in the basement, which just has a ping-pong table and a leaky pipe. "I really should start ending the tour somewhere else".

* And don't forget the priceless quote in "Missionary Impossible," in which Homer's 10 year performance record lists him as having caused 17 meltdowns (''One is too many''!), selling weapons-grade plutonium to the Iraqis (''[[Honest John's Dealership|with no markup]]''!), and worst of all, taking the Hamburgler's birthday off "Last Monday AND Wednesday" (''which is it?!'')

{{quote| '''Old Jewish Man''': [[You Bastard]]!}}

* In "Bart Gets An Elephant", Lisa asks the person buying the eponymous elephant if he's an ivory dealer, with the reply "Well, little girl, I've had lots of jobs in my day: whale-hunter, seal-clubber, [[Biting the Hand Humor|president of the Fox network]]..."

** When Homer gets selected to replace Smithers while he's on vacation, he gets explained that his role will involve "Filing Mister Burns' tax forms, lying to congress, and some light typing."

** One assuming that lying will be involved with filing the tax form too.

'''Krusty''': OH MY GOD! (sobs uncontrollably)<br />

'''Bart''': Well, actually, the bear just ate his hat.<br />

'''Bart''': Oh yeah.<br />

'''Krusty''': OH MY GOD! (sobs uncontrollably) }}

''(Her hair pulsates and explodes open, sending bat swam after the people.)'' <br />

'''1649 Homer''': (running away) Aah! Aah! They're in my hair, they're in my hair!!}}
