* MemeticMutation: "WHY DOESN'T '''MINE''' LOOK LIKE THAT?!"[[labelnote:Explanation]]The scene where Homer lowers the barbecue pit box to reveal his ''very'' poorly-made version, common for riffing on knock-offs or remakes of old works that utterly fail to recapture the magic of the original[[/labelnote]]

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Marge, who feels offended that Homer has so easily gotten into the art world despite how much painting was her thing and thus feels he's being selfish and uncaring about how his success is affecting her. This despite the fact that the last time Marge was ever shown painting was back in season 2 (the only time it was ever mentioned), that her paintings actually ''did'' win a few local awards and even received confirmation that Music/RingoStarr loved the portrait she sent him, and that she generally hasn't done any painting since. It's difficult to agree with Marge's unhappiness when she literally has done nothing with her painting in so long, so her jealousy towards Homer definitely comes across as her being spiteful when he doesn't deserve it.

This is technically not an example of this trope. Marge was jealous of Homer for becoming a successful artist without trying or caring, while she'd done both and been unsuccessful.
