** Mr. Burns calls Homer "The fattest thing he's ever seen", despite the latter going on a diet and losing over 20 pounds. In [[Recap/TheSimpsonsS7E7KingSizeHomer a later episode]], Homer would get out of work by gaining so much weight that he's declared legally disabled and forced to work from home, and Burns' attempt to get Homer back to his original weight through vigorous exercise is such a bust that he ends up having to pay for liposuction instead.

** As Music/RingoStarr is responding to fan mail from the 1970s, he says, "I don't care if it takes me another 20 years. I'm going to answer every one of them." In October 2008, Starr announced he'd no longer accept any more fan mail. In fairness, this was because Starr found out a lot of autographs he'd send in response to fan requests were being sold online for ridiculous prices, and he was understandably irritated by that.

However on a more heartwarming note, he did say that he just didn't have the time to answer all of them and didn't want people to be disappointed.

Splashmore). It is also featured as an obstacle in the water slide level of the video game ''[[VideoGame/TheSimpsonsVirtualBart Virtual Bart]]''.
