I like the episode where Homer wants to get Apu deported because he talks funny but then he realises that he's a good person and important member of the community and his accent doesn't matter.

Homer didn't want Apu to get deported, he just voted for some racist deportation bill and was shocked to learn that it actually affected people he cared about. The episode also revealed that Apu was a highly educated man with an encyclopedic knowledge of US history. It was a good episode.

That episode deeply resonates with me since the only work I've been able to find since college is unglamorous minimum wage garbage.

Also the house we bought this past summer had an ancient rotary phone hardwired into the wall. I thought it quaint so we left it there.

Yeah, I get one too, not that I want it. I think it's just so they can say that they give out X amount of phone books in this town, so please buy our advertisements in it!

It goes right in the recycling bin when I get it. Such a waste.

Something I only found out from listening to the Talking Simpsons podcast is that the little line Homer says at dinner:

'SO I SAID TO HIM, "LOOK, BUDDY, YOUR CAR WAS UPSIDE DOWN WHEN WE GOT HERE.

AND AS FOR YOUR GRANDMA, SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE MOUTHED OFF LIKE THAT!"'

Is a reference to a grisly story called A Good Man is Hard to Find.

I read that story in high school English class.

I wish I’d done so before seeing the Simpsons ep that alluded to it!

I submit that "See you in hell, candyboys!" is the funniest moment in all of 'The Simpsons,' maybe all of television, and anything that pays homage to it is cool and good.
