OJ likely murdering his wife has to be the answer here, right?

[-] Kalkaline@leminal.space 25 points 10 months ago

Don't forget Ron Goldman too.

[-] prole@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

hey, easy with that, that's my lucky stabbing hat!

Abe Simpson throwing Homer under the bus for the attempted murder of Mr. Burns.

Also possibly Abe Simpson shooting down a German airplane. If he actually did it. (In 1994, not during WW2)

Edit: Oh and I guess Abe Simpson cheating on his fiancé, getting the side woman pregnant, giving up the baby, and keeping everything secret from Homer and his other son until he thought he was on his deathbed.

And then when Abe Simpson told young Homer his mother was dead and never came clean until she showed up again.

Man, Abe sucks. It’s a wonder Homer didn’t stick him in that crooked home he saw on 60 Minutes.

[-] WhatAmLemmy@lemmy.world 30 points 10 months ago

Yeah... When you put it that way Abe is actually a horrific character.

[-] Jackcooper@lemmy.world 27 points 10 months ago

I appreciate your comedic timing on the German plane

[-] MissJinx@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Abe is the Grampa Joe of the Simpsons

[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Abe didn't fake being disabled till he could take advantage of the situation. Joe is worse

Bart ruined all of Australia with that frog

[-] fahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.net 56 points 10 months ago

Well Homer routinely strangles his son….

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

But he did return Bart’s turtle alive and well.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 10 months ago

Only when he deserved it.

[-] TheCelticPirate@lemmy.world 56 points 10 months ago

Homer overpolluted the lake causing the US government to isolate and eventually try to destroy all of Springfield with everyone in it.

[-] potterpockets@sh.itjust.works 39 points 10 months ago

Homer definitely fucked with multiple timeline branches in one of the earlier Treehouse of Horror episodes when he has the time machine toaster. The ecological impact of wiping out the dinosaurs in one alone alone is pretty significant.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 36 points 10 months ago

We can't count tree house of horrors episodes.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 55 points 10 months ago

What do you mean, they have numbers in the episode title

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

It’s understood that the events of Halloween episodes aren’t canon. They’re like Futurama What If episodes.

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 13 points 10 months ago

It's a joke about counting stuff with numbers in the episode name

[-] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 10 months ago

There is no singular canon, only what is convenient for the episode. You're right about Treehouse episodes being "less canon" than most others, but there very few things that are permanent in the show that haven't been changed or couldn't be changed in a future episode. So it's a sliding scale of "canonism"

[-] Scrollone@feddit.it 32 points 10 months ago

Being there for any season after 13 😏

[-] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 months ago

The most basedest answer.

[-] BassTurd@lemmy.world 32 points 10 months ago

They locked up Hugo and gave him fish heads for food. That's pretty shitty.

[-] audrbox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 10 months ago

Homer framing Marge for a DUI was pretty disgusting.

"Homer no! That's Elon Musk, probably the greatest inventor of our time!!" https://youtu.be/_QzWDxlJ7Kc

Certain lines in scripted media should come with a "sponsored by" attached to them.

Grimes did that to himself. Homer genuinely didn't do anything wrong.

[-] trustnoone@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Grimes: you've.. been to out of space? You??

Homer: sureee, you've never been?

https://youtu.be/axHoy0hnQy8?si=tz4P1iC1iJyi51-I

This was just sooo good. Feels bad that Grimes just dealt a bad hand in life.

Not the family. But Principal Skinner not showing Chalmers his Aurora borealis that’s situated right in his kitchen is pretty dog.

Wow it's you from the other thread I just read leaving your breadcrumbs everywhere (☞゚ヮ゚)☞

[-] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

It helps with hypergraphia.

Lisa giving up, potentially, millions without thinking about her family

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Marge never gave Alex Trebek the $5200 that she owed.

[-] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago

So noone else would have to.

[-] Bill@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

We all forgetting Maggie just straight-up murdered someone for trying to take her lollipop?

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago

didn't homer blow up the nuclear plant and kill everyone in a non canon ending at least once?

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Homer framed Marge for drunk driving once, dunno if it's the worst but it's pretty bad.

Bart got Milhouse wanted by the FBI
