The D'oh of Homer.

Since we're discussing philosophy, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention those paragons of postmodernism, The Simpsons. On the eve of Springfield's 300th episode, EW picks the top twenty-five episodes of all time (Via Listen Missy and this archetypal contrarian-for-the-sake-of-it Slate story.) In the spirit of Comic Book Guy, the fanboy sensei, I have actually amassed a sizable World of Springfield collection. I would put up a picture for you, but that would invite social humiliation [as with Foopster's now-lost reaction to this old desk pic posted years ago (6/19/00)], and my life already has too many Ralph Wiggum moments as it is, thank you very much. So I'll leave it at this: Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie - here's to another 300.
