The Official Simpsons Griefing Thread

I found a pretty shitty Simpletons article:

10 Episodes Of The Simpsons That Aged Poorly

Time certainly can heal all sorts of wounds, but it can also reveal ancient skeletons in one's closet. The following 10 episodes prove the latter.

screenrant.com

They sure live up to that name. Unrelated but i feel old knowing i'm only 2 years older than the Simpsons

I saw that west wing story and it was worse then I thought it was going to be. The smugness of it

 

[vertexwindi]

God even when they poke fun at the left it's cringey, this is all low hanging shit that Steven Crowder and Ben Shapiro do daily.

I know this goes without saying but the Simpsons really needs to be put down.

The only good joke in that entire section was when Mr. Burns responds to the squash guy's "you're worse than Hitler" comment with "it's too late for flattery". That's still more jokes than the entire West Wing Story clip though.

 

[The Pink Panther]

Apparently it's getting a lot of negative feedback

Lol. A little late to this, but none of the other Tramp shorts got it this bad. The comment section has people of all political spectrums agreeing that the Simpsons has fallen from grace.

 

[The Gay Banana]

I'm surprised Homer Badman was not on that list. Of course, that was a great episode too.

Putting Homer Badman on it would mean that they would have to accept that vigilante justice based on unproven accusations is wrong.

I think a lot of Democrats were genuinely duped by the Mueller investigation, but no one likes The Squad, not even Democrats.

Yeah, I once stumbled across it, partially by accident. I knew it existed beforehand, but didn't expect it to be interactive.

I remember going to the site to see if it existed IRL. It was interactive like you said. They made it look like in the episode.

Also IIRC chunkylover53@aol.com was an official email of FOX too.

Ah, fuck me, out of the Tramp shorts, this was the worst one of all, they just released it today:

Man, they are really sucking all of the crazy Demo's dicks in this one.

This reminds me of watching wrestling back in the Monday Night war era. WCW, who was losing, would continue to take shots at WWF and it just made them look stupid.

I don't think this even appeared in a single Simpsons episode, this is extremely stupid. Even those who don't even like Trump hated it for being a huge cringefest. If you want to make fun of le Drumpf at least make some effort on recent jokes surrounding him like Epstein (gee, wonder why he isn't in it), shootings, etc., but nope they had to use old jokes that are already done to death like Putin, or Mike Pence, or his hair for the millionth time. The only recent jokes surrounding him are just the Democratic candidates and AOC's squad. Why would the Democratic candidates even do the can-can with Trump to begin with anyway?

Even the latest season of South Park moved on from making fun of Trump already apart from the arrest scene that lasts for like a few seconds, and even that one got a chuckle from me.

Mr. Garrison as Trump trying to lose the election on purpose by being awful but somehow still winning was hilarious. Especially as some people actually believe this was Clinton and Trump's plan.

*Creates a self insert and then have said insert be the least liked person on the show*

That's some special achievement.

That explains why he and Seth McFarlane respect each other so much.

I think a lot of Democrats were genuinely duped by the Mueller investigation, but no one likes The Squad, not even Democrats.

I think Suicide Squad was more warmly received.

Those were the days. Time to remember how it looked back in 2005. https://web.archive.org/web/20050822183058/http://www.whatbadgerseat.com/

And the recent approval of that Trump Simpsons clip is 49k dislikes. It won't be long before it hit 50k.

Edit: Here more comments from various Youtubers who's right on target.

I haven’t cringed this hard since the Gillette add

ActaiosReborn
Stop! The Simpsons are already dead!

I can't wait for the episode where Matt Groening and Jeffrey Epstein fly on the Lolita Express.

So a foot fetish creeper and a crazy Scientology voice actress.......on an inflated overdone show.....

Something I just noticed, at 9 seconds in, there’s a really clunky audio edit that makes it sound like they spliced together two different recordings of him saying “Ameri-CA.” Anyone else notice that or am I just hearing things?

Oh yeah you're right, it does sound spliced. GG no re.

 

[Emperor Julian]

Pretty disapointing I remember their old satire on US politics while left leaning used to be a lot sharper.

Also really clumsy satire actually feeds trump narritives and re-enforces his position.

South Park did it way better.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=8er83V2OJ1oKind of want to read Bartkira now.

On the vegetarian Lisa episode, I actually liked it. Even in The Simpsons' prime, it was a breath of fresh air when an episode had a lasting impact on the characters. When I first watched, I was blissfully unaware of McCartney's involvement.

Edit: I searched for it before, but missed it. Apologies for the lateness.

IIRC, the whole point of the episode was to get McCartney to make a guest appearance. Honestly, I always found the last act kind of cringy.

Regarding the video, I think SEW missed something, that both as a commercial enterprise and cultural icon, the currently produced television show is irrelevant. To degree that brand has a future, it is as EA mircocasino money traps and as a source of memes, remixes and reimaginings, kind of like Marvel Comics.

 

[Intelligent Calcium]

Who needs the new seasons anyway? There is enough Simpsons golden age nostalgia media to last us a lifetime.

It gets worse when or if you guys will ever get black pilled about Billy West. It only goes downhill from there.

What did he do? I only know about how he hates John K. after Ren and Stimpy, but that's completely understandable.

Took nudes of his then elementary school age nephew and a whole lot of other strange shit. I don't have enough 100% proof for a thread, so no thread.
