Not long later, the church has a funeral for Homer, where everyone in town grieves for the Simpson patriarch. Suddenly, Jonathan Frink, Jr interrupts the proceedings to announce that he has made a clone of Homer. Marge warns Homer to take this second chance seriously, to which Homer asks her if she made potato salad for the wake. Homer's relationship with Bart is a strange one; indeed, Homer has threatened Bart with murder before, yet at other times, the two get along better than anyone else. Homer usually refers to Bart as "the boy" and has mentioned spanking and beating Bart before. All that is ever shown, however, is either Homer growling and lunging for Bart, chasing him, or else strangling him.
Homer has the most cars out of any playable character in the game. However, Homer is very proud of Lisa's intelligence and will brag about it to friends and co-workers. Lisa acknowledges her father's shortcomings but does love him and appreciates when he puts in the effort to better himself for her sake. Although he is often insensitive to her and her needs (once turning her room into a cellular tower without a second thought and then forcing her to bunk with Bart- also without a second thought), Homer does try to be a good father and puts her happiness above anything else. For example, when he was first told that she was gifted and that she should find a mental stimulation to help with her gift, he gave up the $200 dollars the family had saved for a new air conditioner to buy her saxophone instead and earned gratitude from her.
Homer Simpson Running
He is an overweight, lazy, and ignorant man, but is strongly devoted to his wife and children. Despite his flaws and his below average intelligence he has shown moments of great high intelligence as well as being a loving and caring father and husband at times. Homer works as a safety inspector low level in Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, in Sector 7-G, although he is often incompetent and mostly sleeps in the service and eats donuts. He spends much of his time at Moe's Tavern with his lifelong friends Barney, Carl, Lenny, and bartender Moe.
Although the word has a less offensive meaning in American English compared to British English, its use by U2 suggested the British English meaning was intended. Ofcom, which deals with television complaints in the United Kingdom, received 31 complaints from viewers who felt that the episode should not have been shown before the 9pm watershed. Channel 4 said that the error was caused by a member of the compliance staff, who had incorrectly certified the program as suitable to be shown from 6pm. Ofcom said that while they were "concerned," it would not look into the incident any further because it was "an isolated incident."
Hair Color
Like Bart, he is almost always made leader in whatever bizarre situation he comes across, although, unlike Bart, that leadership isn't always appreciated, such as when Homer becomes the leader of the Stonecutters, which shortly afterwards causes all of the members to quit. Homer Jay Simpson was born on May 12, 1956, to Abraham Simpson II and Mona Olsen. He was raised on the Simpson family farm until they were forced to move out due to Homer jumping out of a hay bale and scaring the cows into giving sour milk, causing the bank to foreclose it. At some point in his childhood, Homer began drinking alcohol like his father and accidentally caused a traffic jam in a Playskool car. According to a family tree designed by the creator of the show, Matt Groening, Mr. Burns, his boss, is a distant relative of him.
Once, when talking about their "two" children, Marge interrupted and told Homer that they had three children, to which he replied that the dog didn't count as a child before recalling Maggie. Also, whenever Maggie is referred to by her full name, Margaret, Homer has no clue as to who is being referenced. When Homer does try to interact with Maggie, he oftentimes frightens her unintentionally. A possible explanation for Homer's frequent mistreatment or neglecting of Bart was provided in "Barthood". There, Homer states that the day he found out about Bart was the day his life of youthful independence was over, which frightened him as it meant he had to become a breadwinning patriarch despite his unreadiness.
Children
It is believed that Homer is diabetic as mentioned in "That '90s Show". However, if this was true, Homer would most likely be dead because he has never been seen taking insulin and the amount of food that Homer eats would just ensure that he would already be dead by the point the episode was shown. Homer placed second on TV Guide's 2015 Top 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters, behind Bugs Bunny. In 2005, Homer was listed fifth on Bravo's 100 Greatest TV Characters, one of only four cartoon characters on that list. British TV viewers voted him as the greatest TV character of all time. In 2007, Entertainment Weekly placed Homer ninth on their list of the "50 Greatest TV icons".
Homer was held in a mental hospital once due to his aggression with Bart, although, once the doctors realized that Bart was, in fact, real, they released him. Homer blames most of his misfortunes on Bart and is the strict abuser of Bart in the strict abusive family. As a result, Bart usually takes advantage of his father's stupidity to humiliate him . Because of their often-turbulent relationship, Bart commonly refers to Homer as Homer instead of Dad, especially when Bart is humiliating him.
Trash of the Titans
Homer awakens one morning to find the pile of trash gone and believes he has beaten City Hall, only to learn that Marge wrote a letter of apology to the Springfield Sanitation Commissioner Ray Patterson, forging Homer's signature. Outraged by this, Homer goes to see Patterson, demanding the letter be returned. Patterson does so and tries to be civil with Homer, but Homer insists he will fight the department and decides to run for Commissioner. No list about Homer's best quotes is complete without the one that defines him as a character. Often used by Homer when he makes a mistake, gets injured, or is frustrated, "D’oh" quickly became one of the most popular catchphrases of the modern era.
Unfortunately for Homer, Marge became pregnant once more with Maggie around this time, and he reluctantly went back to the nuclear plant in order to support his family. Since then, Homer has started many jobs, but in the end, he always comes back to his job at the Nuclear Plant. Homer works as a low-level safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in Sector 7G, although he is often incompetent and negligent towards his duties. He spends a great deal of his time at Moe's Tavern with his friends Barney Gumble, Carl Carlson, Lenny Leonard, and Moe Szyslak. At home, he can often be found sitting on the couch mindlessly watching TV while snacking on food and drinking Duff.
This joke was recreated several years later as a meme for the game Team Fortress 2 with the Spy class doing the same thing, only the cigarettes are lit. Homer's sideburns and ear used to say M and G, respectively, for Matt Groening. They decided to keep the "M", but Groening wanted Homer's ear to look like a real ear. His personality is very similar to that of Peter Griffin from Family Guy, which premiered ten years after The Simpsons began. In "Treehouse of Horror XIII", Peter Griffin appeared as one of Homer's clones.
After opening with a quick Assassin’s Creed parody, complete with hidden blades and dead historical figures, Bart is forced by Marge to play a nicer, less violent video game called Boblox. And in a nice touch, whenever the episode shows stuff happening in the game, it uses 3D CG animation that looks sharp and flat, just like Roblox. However, thanks to his parents being poor and not having a new PC, his old computer glitches when playing the game, letting the Simpsons sell a mohawk hair item over and over. Quickly this scam becomes a full-fledged operation utilizing kids at Springfield Elementary and the school’s similarly old, shitty PCs. Homer Jay Simpson was born as the third child of Abraham Simpson, and the first child of Mona Simpson on May 12, 1956.
The episode also features a parody of the song "The Candy Man" and an incident involving comedian Redd Foxx. While it is mostly used by Homer, other characters like Lisa and Gerald Ford have also used it. This catchphrase has even been used by characters from other TV shows likeFamily Guy, Spongebob Squarepants, as well asThe Critic. With the series still running strong, D’oh will be immortalized and used by fans for generations to come.
One morning Homer gorged himself on pizza and afterwards is on top of the kitchen table in nothing but his underwear. Marge finds him and tells Homer she wishes he would take his health seriously. Just when Homer seems to be taking Marge's words to heart, he marches upstairs to tell his wife that he will start taking care of himself, only to have a heart attack and fall down the stairs, because he is out of shape.
Ironically, Dan Castellaneta, who voices Homer, was one of many voice actors that went on a two-week strike to renegotiate their salaries in 2004. Most of the time, Homer says some pretty stupid or nonsensical things. Of course, there are some moments where he says something that makes you pause and think of its true meaning.
