Memes: The Simpsons
Yes, yes, we know what the goggles do.

The Simpsons, the longest-running American cartoon in history, with its own fair share of memetic goodness.


  • On many forums, variations of the line "My eyes! The goggles do nothing!" are commonly used by posters to indicate they've seen something they really wish they hadn't (not too dissimilar to "do not want"). It is sometimes rendered as a C++ function:
    void the_goggles(){} // do nothing
  • Worst. Meme. Ever. Comic Book Guy's most well-known catch phrase, "Worst. (Noun). Ever." (usually punctuated that way on the Internet) has become a meme of epic proportions. The TV show even used it as one of its episode titles (appropriately "Worst Episode EVER", though it actually refers to a cardiac episode).
  • And Kent Brockman, for one, welcomes our new insect overlords. He'd like to remind them as a trusted TV personality, he can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.
  • Your memes are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter. Explanation

  • "DENTAL PLAN!" "Lisa needs braces!" [[Episode 9F15, "Last Exit to Springfield": Homer plays back Lenny's "So long, dental plan!" cheer, along with Marge's warning that Lisa needs braces, over and over in his head until he realizes that if Burns takes away his dental plan, he'll have to front the money for an expensive (and hideously ugly) set of braces to fix Lisa's teeth.]]
    • On the note of overly long gags... Sideshow Bob's rake scene in "Cape Feare".
      • "Rakes... my other mortal enemy."
  • Talking out of turn? That's a paddlin'. Looking out the window? That's a paddlin'. Posting memes on the internet? That's a paddlin'. Making "That's a paddlin'" an internet meme? Oh, you'd better believe that's a paddlin'. Explanation
