What Simpsons gag/joke gets you every single time?

Rock Bottom and Aurora Borealis were already mentioned.

Small gif, but I love this one too. The entire scene is amazing. "This bachelor loves women who take their clothes off for money!"

Probably mentioned already but when Homer is talking to the Flanders about something he doesn't understand. He imagines his brain flying out of his head and simply collapses onto his face.
 
Prison Guard cracks whip on Marge "No talkin"

Prison Quard cracks whip on Homer "No Listening either. You hear Me."

Homer "uh, no"

Prison Guard "You just don't learn do you"

"Crackers are a family food, Kirk. Happy families. Perhaps single people eat crackers, we don't know. It's a market we can do without."

"So that's it? After all these years, so long, good luck?"

"I don't remember saying good luck."

(Probably not exact phrasing I didn't want to look it up/wanted to test memory)

You're missing the best part:

"Crackers are a family food, Kirk. Happy families. Perhaps single people eat crackers, we don't know. And frankly, we don't want to know."

I don't know the original English lines but I will try to approximate

Bart: Oh wow, God is pretty cool!

Homer: Yeah, he's my favourite fictional character.


Fuckin' slays me every time, I guess because I am a Catholic.
 
Homer buying the cursed doll in one of the early Halloween specials never fails to crack me up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Krbl911ZPBA

The whole "That's good, that's bad" thing always cracks me up. Homers expressions really seal the deal for me. I've seen this bit so many times that the dialogue is carved into my brain.

Plus the scenes right after are gold - Homer crushing Milhouse as he opens the front door is great, and Grampa's "That doll is evil I tells ya... EVIL!" line never fails to get a laugh out of me.


Also - in the episode where the family goes to Japan, when on the quiz show Homers "Is the answer Japan?" line kills me each time I hear it (I quote it all the time these days). George Takei's response to Homer's correct answer cracks me up as well.

edit - oh and anything with the bear patrol. Flanders freaking out at seeing the bear is gold, and Kent Brockman's news report is great "A large, bear-like animal, most likely a bear, has wandered down from the hill in search of food or perhaps employment".
 
*Homer singing to himself while driving to the tune of the Flintstones theme*

Simpson! Homer Simpson! He's the greatest guy in history!
From the! Town of Springfield! He's about to hit a chestnut tree! *scream*

That scene is great for multiple reasons. The guy pulling the whistle that sounds exactly like an animal shrieking, Homer breaking his car window, etc.
 
Homer: Marge? Since I'm not talking to Lisa, would you please ask her to pass me the syrup?
Marge: Dear, please pass your father the syrup, Lisa.
Lisa: Bart, tell Dad I will only pass the syrup if it won't be used on any meat product.
Bart: You dunkin' your sausages in that syrup homeboy?
Homer: Marge, tell Bart I just want to drink a nice glass of syrup like I do every morning.
Marge: Tell him yourself, you're ignoring Lisa, not Bart.
Homer: Bart, thank your mother for pointing that out.
Marge: Homer, you're not not-talking to me and secondly I heard what you said.
Homer: Lisa, tell your mother to get off my case.
Bart: Uhhh, dad, Lisa's the one you're not talking to.
Homer: Bart, go to your room.
Lisa: Why don't you just eat him, Dad?
Homer: I don't need any serving suggestions from you! You barbeque-wrecking, know-nothing know-it-all!
Lisa: That's IT! I can't live in a house with this prehistoric carnivore. I am out of here!
[leaves and slams the door]
Homer: That's it! Go to your room!
 
"Well, Mr. Burns had done it,
The Power Plant had won it,
With Roger Clemens clucking all the while,
Mike Scioscia's tragic illness made us smile,
While Wade Boggs lay unconscious on the bar-room tile.

We're talkin' softball,
From Maine to San Diego,
Talkin' softball,
Mattingly and Canseco,
Ken Griffey's grotesquely swollen jaw,
Steve Sax and his run-in with the law,
We're talkin' Homer,
Ozzie and the Straw."
 
Homemade Medicine

Homer and the sandwich

"It smells funny in there."
"No it doesn't."

"Be an astronaut? Sure!"

"The toilet recommended AmericaTown."

Probably because me and a friend did something similar in our yearbooks. Or Milhouse's stupid laugh and "I signed it too."

Your username also reminded me of a particular quote from Marge Vs the Monorail:

Homer: Do you want to change your name to Homer Junior? The kids can call you Hoju!

I loved that quote so much I ended up calling one of my cats Hoju.

That's awesome! I love it too.
 
"Money can be exchanged for goods and services."

I repeat it aloud often when my brain stalls out and its a guaranteed laugh with mi amor. That and "Everything's coming up Milhouse!"

Kudos and Kang's third party bit always slays me as well, each year I grow closer to making mock election signs for the yard...

Oh sweet jeebus I forgot "It was the best of times, it was the- blurst of times-"
 
One of my favourite quotes wasn't actually used in the final episode.

In the Treehouse of Horror where Homer has the time-travelling toaster, he says, "Wow, I'm the first non-Brazilian person to travel through time!"

But in the original script, he actually says, "Wow, I'm the first non-fictional person to travel through time!" which is honestly even funnier.

Love that exchange, so good. Bart's reaction is priceless.
