The Very Best Of Hank Scorpio | Four Finger Discount 

This is why the Simpsons movie is 100x better if you imagine Russ Cargill was Hank Scorpio in disguise just trying to get back at Springfield for taking Homer away when he genuinely cared for him.

after he says it, the men behind him looked like getting hit by a bowling ball

​@Hollywood113807 fun fact: it WAS going to be hank as the villain of the film But they choundt see him harming homer

@@doggosho3044 the fans would be wanting Hank to succeed

He probably heard all about the Pin Pals

Let's be honest Hank is the boss everyone wants.

That's a megalomaniac I could get behind.

“Just because you are bad guy does not mean you are bad *guy* .”

Remember it's only an animation story😂

Indeed

I agree it would be one of the best answers to questions in history and would be put in a museum

I don't know my own cellphone number either. Never need to call myself XD

So what's your phone number? Why would I want to call myself?

Someone at work will tell you upstairs.

In a heartbeat!

Kind of the way I feel about Elon Musk tbh

Same

Which is why the tyrants of our history have all had great charisma in common.

@@apple54345 except unlike elon he actually has empathy

well no..if you remember by the end of the hank scorpio episode, he fails....he is naked basically and desperate to keep homer...

By the end of the episode though, he'd taken over the eastern seaboard. s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/a5/ab/d7/a5abd7149aceabc71ce4c435951a3776.jpg

He's like David Xanatos

Blue Dragon ikr lol

@@razkable he wants to keep homer cause he likes him. Not because he's desperate.

Most young hip modern workplaces are like this. That's the hook dose to get you dependent and trust them. But don't be fooled, it is still a selfish endeavor, and at it's very core, manipulative capitalism.

Let's be honest even as a supervillain he's still less evil than some companies out there.

​@@thanhavictus not hank scorpio though

​@@volragSee Mr. Burns and Elon Musk.

@@thanhavictuslooks like we found the communist

It's too bad this episode couldn't have him carry his own plot with Homer away from the other Simpsons. Watch the episode again to know what I'm talking about. October 28, 2016, 10:16pm

@Adam Kalb, why did u put the date and time?

brooks makes hank scorpio work...the way phil Hartman makes his characters work...same for john lovitz....its the voice acting....it just fits..but brings the scenes to life...it doesnt sound generic...

+Charles Ferdinand dude why copy and paste this comment everywhere on the video? Are you saying no one is allowed to say it's a good episode and if they do they're a sheep? Go fuck yourself troll.

lol that's my new favourite insult

I second that notion!

He was truly brilliant

or bald

Totally true

Well, Luthor *did* look like Hank in that Supergirl/Luthor Special.

But Jeff Bezos is also a supervillain.

Jeff Bezos and the UN and most world leaders are in lockstep with each other.

@@econojon A D-List one at best though

@@econojon Yeah but Hank actually cares about his employees

the guy is nice as hell

Graphomite a sign of excellent management is being able to motivate employees to improve regardless of base skill.

+Jarrod Chambers Welp... now you can!

Dan Fawaz a sign of excellent management is telling your employees to kill some soldiers and kick back some grenades when they leave!

Homer has actually been productive at a few jobs. Like the bowl-o-rama. It's just a matter of enjoying your work. And i don't think anyone could enjoy their work with a boss like Mr. Burns. Except Smither's obviously.

That’s charisma right there

+Miku Ivalice But he doesn't even like to call it a 'scene'

+Miku Ivalice who is your thumbnail girl? weird..

+Deep Blue And he doesn't even think those are his best scenes. He could go on for hours about his better moments.

You are correct!

beat me to it

kicks away grenade sheepishly

He was the best Employee Globex ever had.

I like that homer is a regular battling suburban dad. But he has enemies that are literally some of the most powerful people on the planet and has genuinely killed people.

@@tree_alone That and he tackled Bont.

Yeah, that was a subtle "do or die" moment.

Right? Chaos and calamity happening all around him and he still wants to just hang out and go bowling. Best boss ever!

You would like me then.

L

That was hilarious big explosion his place getting attacked and he just wanted Homer as his friend

*Explosion* 😂😂😂😂😂😂

“See ya” is a much underused sign-off from villains.

that's why this episode is my favorite can't help but love Scorpio

Literally?

Just like Rex Banner

Albert Brooks 😁👍

Well his place of business was getting attacked so Homer did kill a few people on his way out and also tackled out James Bond proves why Homer liked Hank didn’t treat him like an idiot

I would kill anybody Hank ask me to kill without question. As Hank is a really cool guy, he maybe a villian but he is still an excellent boss.

Homer did kick a grenade back toward where it came from. I like to imagine that, in a final, sad act of appreciation, Homer killed several people with that blast.

No prob Hank, I'll get right on that! Oh...lunch in 30 minutes, its Thursday, so...goulash n' green beans today! Mmm greasy!

There isn't a villain more polite than Hank Scorpio😂

+Completely Erect Well he's only in one episode.

+Completely Erect one episode

+Sluup Dawg The best comeback I've ever seen (read). 10/10 would read again.

He's appeared in the comics before, and he appeared in a later episode

he in 1 episode

I don't think I get it :/

Just that he's genuine. Some people just talk like that, but they don't actually want to spend time with you. Hank seems like the real deal, he's a busy guy but he is genuinely interested in Homer's happiness and friendship

No idea why I didn't get it at the time, it makes complete sense now. Btw I stumbled upon my own comment up there by complete accident.

To be fair, Mr. Burns employees had a job the day after Scorpio's base burned down. Also, Scorpio's business doesn't seem to produce anything, while Burns produces electricity.

@@argentaegis Remember Mr. Burns made grenades for the Nazis

@@VernonRice he also fought them in ww2 with Abe in a commando unit

@@argentaegis it produces doomsday weapons to extort governments with.

@@RomanvonUngernSternbergnrmfvus fought it a generous way way to say it, he cowered and hid more than fought

An accurate indictment of corporate America, that a megolomaniac would be the best boss that Homer ever had.

Michael Martin Corporatism in general really. His design is partly modelled on Richard Branson.

How else do you think they get their employees to do evil?

@dskmb3 ok

Yup

And also, in the Simpson World, Russ Cargil and Brad Goodman

That's why he's so awesome

Will never unhear that when he talks now lol

Albert Brooks, he's a comic legend.

🤯🤯🤯

That's the only reason Bond is still alive in our universe, Homer Simpson doesn't exist here(Well, there in the Bond Movie universe, you know what I mean).

They called him James Bont for fear of a lawsuit.

when was the other one again?

@@BlazingImp77151 In the Monty Burnes Casino episode I believe. Homer was acting as a card dealer and delt Bond a Joker.

@@Belgarion21312 That scene was deleted.

Seems like he'd be pretty hands-off as long as we did what he said on the occasion that he found something worth his attention.

How is he a supervillain? All he's doing is taking down the U.N.

"With his plot to rule the world and his employee's health!"

He wasn't just a supervillain. He was also super.

Seeing the modern day UN alone has me rooting for him.

Yes

A villain doesn't need to be mean, think about the classical disney villains like Hades

@@kyutwoloop5737 it might also have to do with his relationship with Homer.

well thats the biggest mistake they made, hes not a villain, hes a foil, he brings out homers best productive side, he should have been a side character who happened to be caught by the dome and was focused on his science lab and was actually using the dome to further his evil activities while treating homer great while the town itself turned on homer forcing homer to leave, but making homer come back to not only save the town, but have a moral dilemaa between breakign the dome and helping Scorpio, and the best part is, he could have had his freind Hank back and maybe found a compromise where scorpios plan allowed the town to prosper with a dome and a underground highway... and the government then comes and takes the dome because they realize the towns making money from it and not paying ataxes

@@kyutwoloop5737 you...you know that Hades wanted to kill a baby, right?

Plus the Denver Broncos had a massive turn around around this time so Homer would have actually made a lot from that. In fact in the comics Scorpio asks about the Broncos and Homer said after they won the Super Bowl he made enough to pay off his tab at Moe's.

@Tinky Winky If we wanted your whining, we would have asked for it.

The psychopathy is what help make him great.

No less psychotic then most the people I've worked for, at least he's friendly.

Hank's a really great boss full stop. He doesn't seem to take anything out on his employees, why would he when he's got the rest of the world to take it out on?

He doesn't like being called "boss".

that's the joke..homer is too dumb to clash with hank or get in his way..and he even helps him out....of course that's cool that he likes homer but he is a super villain...even more so than mr burns....which is shocking...cant work with him

That's a nice warm story, I'm sorry for the loss

Then continue his path

Was he also a super villain?

good bosses are like good artists

What Country did he want to nuke?

Don't call me that word

That,s ok I,d like working for him

Indeed. I agree.

I’ve worked for a Hank Scorpio and it’s all you think it could be

It starts out with such a harsh expectation and then takes such a benevolent twist. What's not to love?

All their bums were converted to mailboxes

Agreed he's my 2nd favorite character I saw him in an intro once in one of the 20-29 seasons but the only thing he said was "IT WAS THIS OR A PORSHE 🤑" but idk if that was actually him. Just looked like him

Don't forget You're here forver Do it for her :)

Lisa, go to your room.

Ok, 👏🏼 you took a film criticism course at the local junior college. I’m sure the “professor” was a state college master’s program scholar before landing that 14th grade gig. 🙄

@@KamalasNotLikeUs i.. uhh... havent actually had a film class.... i just watch lots of youtube reviews and try to understand how other people evaluate things

but if it must be said.... i think, i personally felt that this episode was... weird... it was because, it was the one homer centric episode i liked as a kid that didnt feel wrong to me, it did feel like a bond villain, but it gave me a view point into a world of evil doing that said, not everything is about good or bad, sometimes its just about how you treat other people. And from an empiric, good vs bad your going to say, they are murdering bond, we dont know who the good guy or bad guy is in this, we assume, we know, but we dont know if Scorpio is entitled to that money and got screwed or ruined by a international effort to destroy him, maybe he was actually a very generous and kind person who was trying to create life extension tablets that would cure every disease and even completely remove all the effects of aging from people for extraordinary thousand plus year life spans, and the global military industrial complex said no, and ordered him and his company exterminated to preserve the world population balance, both would have valid arguments to why thier viewpoint was necesary, but the scorpio as a bad guy sudeenly becomes a kind hearted guy trying to make a world without suffering, where as the military leaders are trying to make a world where thier isnt critical overpopulation and undying hordes stripping the world forests bare and leaving nothing edible as everyone slowly suffers the ravages of starvation and theirs no animals or wildlife or bushes or trees left or even insects because we ate evertyhing, all however many billion of us were there after 10 to 30 years of no one dieing and everyone being in thier 20s in all effectiveness. with perfect health we need other things, like advanced techology and food replicatiaion and then we are capable of surviving, and the military thinks about that, the government plans for that, but people just feel pain and desire and drive to accomplish those goals any way possible to fulfill thier lonely lives. In that context, evil and good become different things, we dont even know if scorpio was producing some sort of evil product he sold to support his attempts to take over the world, but we do know he ran a perfect little corner of society, and a haven where he didnt have to have Homer, but he did, and Homer tried to respect and show concern back. I think thats why i liked the Scorpio episode. Because it wasnt a selfish episode, it was a bizare episode where we dont know if it wias for the greater good, or the greater evil, but people werent just hording things, something seriously strange was happening, and it was a single self contained half hour of amazing world building... and i was so young and just fascinated by it and wanted more of it. but we never got more.... but homer got a football team at the end... and scorpio got the east coast i think... it was very fascinating... or was it the west coast? i forget but i do remember what great excitement and anticipation i got when i realized how great and fun that world became when what was ordinary boss stuff turnned out to be either generic good guy bad guy stuff, or the opening to a whole world of adventure and stories, what would Scorpio have done with the money? maybe he just wanted to make society function better

😂 And you just got to KNOW that Hank was serious when he told Homer that...lol

while a missle explodes in the background

Even if you never met Hank, they have the nicest office and town

No! I would die to work for him!

me too. what a guy. Let them leave stay here with me. we'll go bowling!

I have no wife no kids and marketable IT skills. Hank needs to hire me lol

But never ask him for sugar or something like that. Trust me.

This is my favourite scene in all of the Simpsons ever. There are so many levels to that joke and it all makes me cry laughing

Yea! When he puts his hands in his pocket and says "want some cream" lol Also when he asks Homer that if you want to kill some one on your way out that would help me a lot

@@gombeane I agree!! by far the best scene, I've seen it a lot of times and still makes me laugh

You missed the joke, it's not "uuuhhh" it's "yeeeuhhh" because he would normally take it

@@hugoclarke3284 It sounded like eiihhhhh

Why I think Hank calls him a jerk.

@@Igarappappa That is a dick move. imagine sneaking into his HQ and eating his lunch. Just imagining it is darn hilarious.

Lmao yeah. He DID help recapture James BONT, after all. Lol

Frankly Scorpio shows the benefits of not doing the whole, killing Minions for failures that may or may not be their fault thing. Scorpio is an extremely kind, encouraging leader, which leads to high morale and greater efficiency. Scorpio encourages Homer in a way no other boss he ever had did and lest we forget; Homer's motivational techniques were working and increasing efficiency in his department. I mean there's a reason the Doomsday Device was way ahead of the Weather Machine and Germ Warfare Divisions. Compared to so many companies today, Globex would be rated so highly to work for, world domination goals or no.

Me too...who wouldn't live in a town where there's a hammock district? It would be a dream come true...for me😁

Because anybody would always say France, whatever the other choice. Even North Korea. Well, maybe not Niger.

Have you seen Paris lately?! What ever Hank does to Paris is an improvement.

Even French people would say France.

3 reasons for that: 1. Pizza 2. Spaghetti 3. Mario There are more, but these three should suffice.

@@gustavoamorim5189 As a French person, I agree

definitely agree!

@el padrino Homer was never a car designer, no matter how much Herb believed in him. Homer is a factory boy, a simple man who only manages to get by in the job he has due to familiarity. Thats why he succeeds under Hank Scorpio. He knows how the business works and gets to just express his views that went unheard under Burns and Smithers.

Yeah this was a case where I didn't have a lot of sympathy for the others, because ultimately it means whenever they complain about the situation in Springfield I remember that in this episode, they chose to go back to it. They chose to return to the crumbling house, the underfunded school, the pollution and the problems of Springfield. Because as you say, there were fixes for all of these things, I mean Marge could have joined a book club or something like that (which she did in another episode), antihistamines should have gotten Lisa back in order and as you say, Bart isn't actually stupid he's just lazy and uninvested; if he put in the effort he could get out of the remedial class before too long. And notably none of them even try to fix their problems, instead they all simply opt to retreat to the familiar mediocrity of Springfield. I mean we know why it had to happen, so the show could revert to status quo, but I never thought it made Lisa, Bart or Marge look all that good.

I feel like you kinda missed the point of the story tbh. Though i’ll admit, the episode only had 22 mins tk reset everything to the status quo in the end, so it never gave enough time to show how its affecting them, homer was the main focus, but since the story was about how the entire FAMILY feels, you’d think they’d give more time to show their reasons and success and failures at trying to make things work. But anyways, the whole point of the episode was that part of what made homers life great and worth living, WAS his family. If they’re not happy, he can’t fully live a comfortable life without them being happy too. So this was never fit to be the “perfect setup for homer” because what makes homer happy isn’t entirely based around just himself. This was always just how older homer was portrayed. Dude’s a selfish, lazy asshole but a good guy at heart (and a big softie). Ironically his insane selfishness tied in perfectly with his love for his family. Since he loved them that much, he’d do tons of stupid shit to keep them around cause it keeps him happy, despite not benefiting from it beyond dopamine boosts and emotional attachments

@@theradionicrevival8068 Whilst I don’t think I missed the point of the episode, I do think you make a very good point and make astute judgements based on cannon character points 👍😄

Yeah, Bart definitely would've been better off, if he would actually doing some studying. Marge could also make new friends with some of the other housewives, with Maggie meeting some of the other babies. Lisa's could atleast try the antihistamines first, if they don't work, maybe also a facemask? Though less ideal.

So true! 😂

Man... it's close, but I propose an epic tie between Scorpio and Larry Burns. What say you to that?

Season 8 is probably the best for guest/one-off characters, seeing as it has Scorpio, Larry Burns, Poochie, John the Gay Man and Grimey. All of them in the top 30 episodes.

Crazy vaclav is my favourite

Karl, Homers gay secretary when had hair was, a-mazzzing!

Fun fact, the guy who did Hank's voice (Albert Brooks) was Super Dave's half brother in real life. Or for any of you Curb fans, the Funkman's real life half brother.

That's not what he was referencing. We don't know what Homer was referencing, that's the joke. Hank asked that question because the obvious answer would have been "no" but for some reason, Homer had seen it before. It makes you think "LOL when?!?" It's similar to another joke in another episode where they show the birds going crazy at a bird sanctuary, attacking people, and Hans Moleman is on the phone where he asks "I need the biggest seed bell you have... ... ...no, that's too big." The joke is that it was an unexpected response. We don't know what the person on the other end of the phone line said, but apparently they quoted a size that was so big that it was "too big" to stop thousands of birds from massacring people. It makes you think "LOL how can it be too big?!?"

@@OriginalChaosLord I disagree and actually think it's funnier that Homer would be referencing what he just saw. Unless you're Matt Groening then I'm not convinced :--)

The important part is für singular of shoes. Since he just threw both his shoes out, he actually has seen a guy throwing a shoe away.

@@OriginalChaosLord 13 to 7 people says you’re wrong lol

@@OriginalChaosLord You got the joke.

He didn't even forget, before saying one the phone rang and he asked for one second, but Homer got confused and thought that with one he meant that he should let himself fall, it was an honest mistake and he still apologized, a great guy

I doubt you would say that if this episode aired 20 years later in Season 28. The writer of this episode was spoiled from having a good reputation and forgot to make Homer and Hank carry the episode's plot instead of the other Simpsons who were bored with Cypress Creek and wanted to move back to Springfield. If you want to see a version of this episode's plot done right with less spoiled writers who had a bad reputation, see Teen Titans Go's Cool School. I swear that episode did more with Rose Wilson in 11 Minutes than this episode did with Hank Scorpio in 22 minutes. They didn't have Hank Scorpio carry the plot, instead he just exists to pander to James Bond fans and distract viewers from this episode's lack of a decent plot from the other Simpsons. October 28, 2016, 10:22pm

Kumiko worked better as a good new character in Married to the Blob from Season 25 because she actually carried the episode's plot, whereas Hank Scorpio didn't carry the plot of You Only Move Twice. This was a better time for things like this because The Simpsons was going stale and having a funny new character (if they made You Only Move Twice today 20 years later) wouldn't be too effective. October 28, 2016, 10:25pm

Adam Kalb I respectfully disagree.

HillDueceua OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTT

I know it's been two months, but you seem like you're a fan of that shitty show.

Burns would regard Scorpio as one of those " Damn beatnik kids"

funny thing about Hank is, he took over the east coast meaning he wouldn't have reason to go to Springfield no more. he's too successful that not even the UN can stop him. he values his employees so the morale is extremely high and he's a great leader.

+herby A freeloading homeless person found it. Finders keepers bitch

+herby you shat your pants?

+herby No wonder Homer didn't want the cream.

+herby Want some cream?

+CMPunkMark1994 That shit was hilarious.

Alex homer was actually productive when he worked at globex. And it was because hank gave him the motivation. That was the key to this episode

Alex maybe mr burns was right to hire homer afterall

The joke of the episode was that bosses that motivate their employees and are actually kind to them and treat them with respect are so rare and far between that when they actually are they seem uncanny to a degree that they look like they have something bad hidden behind their back.

That shows how great of a leader Scorpio was, even who everyone else says is unproductive, he could make productive.

@@acdclife94 yup his department was way ahead of the weather machine and biological warfare division.

The ironic thing is that he plays Hank Scorpio as the nicest boss ever who happens to be a super villain, but he also plays Russ Cargill who is mad with power but runs the EPA; an organization that is intended to help the environment. I wonder if his casting in the movie was intentional for that reason.

@@colten53 At one point in development of The Movie, Hank Scorpio was actually considered as the villain! Eventually they decided against it for multiple reasons, one of which being his friendship with Homer.

I didn’t realize that was the voice of marlin.

​@@Chronometry707Honestly, that would have just made for a more interesting conflict.

And the absolute psychopath in Drive.

Stoneman180190 Hey !! I just left my resume and I am crossing my fingers to get the job, how come are you calling him a "supervillain" ? He is awesome !!

I mean, how do you think every supervillain have their loyal henchmen? Because they are nice to them and give them a great pension plan. Who cares if their boss is evil and wants to take over the world? He´s a nice person after all and he cares about you personally. Frankly the world is a better place with your evil boss in charge, because he looks after his loyal subjects well being.

This reminds me of an exchange in SWTOR. “Lana might seem like the nicest Sith Lord ever, but betraying her will still get you killed.”

Supervillian??

+Schwatvogel Actually they kill their henchmen saved for their most determined loyal ones like Oddjob or high paid ones like Jaws. Scorpio just treats his employees both in his front company and his lair with respect and expect them to do the same to their fellow employees. Hence why Homer was on friendly terms with one of Scorpio's top security guards.

+Schwatvogel thats what the joke all about.....

Cracked after hours did an episode about this topic exactly

+Schwatvogel And you got business hammocks. Don't forget hammocks :-)

+lxCRON1Cxl I love that series and that episode.

I've always been fascinated with the idea of what evil geniuses, and they're underlings, do in their off the clock real world lives. Their families, where they like to go to dinner, what appointment television they have. I was the safety officer for a facility for several years, so it makes me kind of notice safety stuff. I always love an evil genius's lair having lit "EXIT" signs, fire extinguishers in the proper places. They are evil genius criminals who break every possible law, but their facility is up to OSHA standards.

He should have stayed, we could have gone bowling :(

@@hankscorpiouk can i join your company

His family is a bunch of assholes, Homer was actually happy working for Hank but as usual his family ruined a good thing

It always bugged me how his family never even tried. Like: Marge? Does she really only define herself by being housewife? WTF. Get a god damn hobby. In fact she's supposed to be an artist, so why not get to painting again. It's just pathetic. Lisa? See a doctor! I've got hayfever too and I have medication against it. Again, pathetic. Bart is the only one with legitimate problems that could and should be addressed by his parents talking to the school. They could have lived a lot better life and afforded a lot more, including better education for their children.

Forget his family! It takes at least three months to adjust to a move, and at least a year to finally be happy with it. If I worked for Hank Scorpio, my family would either suck it up or live in Springfield while I visited them once or twice a month.

"ye-hes, once." Still probably the best line John Swartzwelder ever wrote.

Even if he’s a supervillain

Homer already beat you to the punch.

Possibly both.

I’ve often wondered if that really was the problem upstairs or whether he was covering with a story that he knew Homer would buy.

probably that villainouse James Bont!

@@kisbie I don't think he would lie about that. He straight up killed people and causes terror right in front of Homer. It also goes with his personality that he would react like that to someone eating his lunch.

I like hanks response..like fell on its own..you have 24 hours lol..he actually seems like he is lying..maybe it did fall on its own..

They edit out my favorite part right after maybe it just collapsed on it's own : "We can't take that chance." "You always say that, I want to take a chance!"

"You always say that!! I want to take a chance!!"

@Evi1M4chine also anyone over the age of 65

+DowellForPASenate .......I go by the writer

+DowellForPASenate Actually the only thing that increased was the picture quality. The actual animation quality decreased. Back in the 90s most of the animation was hand drawn, which not only added to the humour but also made the characters more expressive and movement more lively. Now everything's digital and the characters move like robots. If you don't believe me, just look at this gif: www.cartoonbrew.com/wp-content/uploads/simpsonscompare.gif

LukeMM95 that gif alone sets the comparison between classic and modern Simpsons. That expression of relief that classic Marge gives when Maggie is placed into the shopping trolley signifies her grace and dignity as a mother concerned for her child's welfare. Modern Marge looks robotic and lifeless, like as if she doesn't give a shit. The classic versions of the characters had a heart and a certain human quality. The modern Simpsons try to cram in as many "funnies" as possible, even in the opening sequence, and those long drawn-out couch gags are annoying.

Same with Spongebob, if the drawings look SD and a bit messy (sometimes), you know it's a good episode.

That intro sequence was made in the first season in the awful Klasky Csupo animation days. Nothing about that floppy rubbery animation in season 1 was good.

Especially with his power of motivating fucking HOMER for fucks sake.

In Kent Brockman and that was my two cents

Definitely not these days

They did... :c

​@@atticus5106 It wasn't a spinoff in the normal sense. You might think of The Simpsons as a spinoff of those shorts, but when people think of spinoffs, they generally think of a character or characters on a show getting remade into their own show.

Voting is overrated cause people can easily convince others to vote for bad options. As least with emperor you always know where you are. And you can organize rebellion's to change the emperor. I mean, voting is part of one system that's not so perfect as they portrait it should be.

@@vashstampede8523 The whole dying in the rebellion and having all your family sold into slavery part kind of kills it for me

The monarchy may have had it up and Downs but I mean if you were a great leader like thank you someone who sees himself as one of the people and is willing to put himself in the front lines that’s essentially what a good king does

@@DgardsGaming The monarchies certainly had their Downs 😉

@@DgardsGaming monarchies of small countries, yes.

@@pendraco2000 Oh dang, seems it is story in US English. Always learning What a world

Whats it with everyone liking that turd?

Learn a little about him and you'll understand, we don't love him, he's just a good guy using his own money to try to save the ecosystem and send us to space, among other things.

Would you guys mind telling me what your professions are?

PREACH

if I read in the paper "Musk seizes East Coast" I reckon I'd think "probably for the best"

+BP Lup Yep. When I was a kid I thought the first years of the Simpsons were hilarious but now after rewatching them as an adult I'm seeing an entirely different, an entirely different kind of hilarious, show. The show creators were brilliant.

I didnt get it until just now holy shit

I definatley think you're overthinking it.. Really..

Kids these days think everything has to be sexual.

I hate to be the one to explain the joke, but the joke is just how bizarre it is keeping loose sugar and presumably coffee creamer in Hank's pockets.

Because that is not a Hank Scorpio moment.

That's what I always want to say to the pusilanimous pukes at work.

Then you helped Homer do Hank a favour.

“Let em go you’ll stay here with me we’ll go bowling”. *Explosion* 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I think the explosion and scream on the back its what make the scene

I think it's the fact that he keeps eye contact with Homer ensuring that he's totally serious

Crazed? Are you crazy 😜 It’s a look of genuine friendship.

It's that he keeps a straight face when things are literally exploding around him.

Feed him to the piranhas!

Don’t forget Karl though on the episode when Homer gets hair!

lol wtf is wormwood doing here

I think we all seriously would like to see James Bond fail, just once.

Ever see Casino Royale? That movie is nothing but Bond fucking up.

Yep. Ended up being naked & having his balls swung at for sport before someone had to save his arse.

Tab Utu And in the end, everything was back to square one, except for Bond losing his girlfriend, his will to live, and his balls shattered!

@ TooCooFoYou "Bond losing his girlfriend, his will to live, and his balls shattered!" Only one of which was actually new, I don't think I remember his balls were busted in "On Her Majesty’s Secret Service" also I think Tracy was his wife when she was killed, not his girlfriend.

That is one of those Simpsons jokes you only get when you grow up.

That's the joke

No kidding, right?

retrodude123 I always read that in the voice of McBain when he’s doing “McBain: Let’s Get Silly”.

hyperdeath84 "on closer inspection these are loafers"

Ethiopians? =)

The only good thing to come out of Italy is the food.

@@puppysect As an Ethiopian, we don't. Grudges against nation states because of wars in the past are stupid

@@diegodeluquev1433 It is also thanks to an Italian that you were able to write this comment (Federico Faggin)

@@TechnoGuys99 true lol

I believe that whole exchange was ad-libbed by the two of them. Castellaneta and Brooks used to do improv comedy together.

"I don't really like that name, call me Big Hank."

He's a big guy.

+One3673241 For you.

TypetwoAbsolute big Scorpio

the guy setting up the TDKR joke deserves just as many (if not more) likes than the guy who completes it. Cmmon guys... ffs.
