Adding this So Bad Its Good story. I know the description's a bit short but it's probably better written than the story. Sorry if I sounded rude.

'''''[[https://www.booksie.com/content/ned-flanders/must-love-ned-flanders-299982/chapter/1/version/1 Must Love Ned Flanders]]''''' is a fanfiction of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''.

It centres around a young woman named Naomi Sanders from our world who watches the TV series and has a crush on the character of Ned Flanders, who then tries to woo him when she gets transported to ''The Simpsons'' universe via a plane crash.

!! ''Must Love Ned Flanders'' provides examples of
* AccidentalMisnaming: Homer accidentally calls Naomi "Natalie".
* AlienAbduction: Mentioned in a "deleted" scene where Kang and Kodos the aliens are said to be "always abducting the Simpsons".
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: When Naomi lands in the ''Simpsons'' universe, she turns yellow, like the majority of the characters there.
* ArtisticLicenseGeography: Naomi gets on a plane to "Springfield, America" without having to specify, even though there's over thirty American towns with that name.
* AuthorAvatar: Naomi is meant to represent the author.
* BearsAreBadNews: Naomi gets chased by a bear when she's in Alaska.
* ButLiquorIsQuicker: Implied when Naomi says that "the whole town came [to her and Ned's wedding] and got drunk, including yours truly, excluding Ned who carried me to our room where we... ''ahem'', you know."
* CassandraTruth: Ned disbelieves Naomi about coming from another dimension.
* CensorshipBySpelling: In a "deleted" scene, Ned says, "But [Smithers is], um, g-a-y."
* CrackFic: The fanfic's premise is a little out there, but it gets really nuts towards the end when Naomi runs off to Alaska, where she meets all of Ned's previous love interests, including a zombie Maude.
* CurseCutShort: Edna says, "If that son of a..." then falls over and finishes her sentence when she gets up with, "...wants to live with his mother all his worthless life, then let him."
* EatenAlive: Discussed when Ned wonders if his sons are being eaten alive.
* {{Fainting}}: Naomi passes out when she meets Homer, then again when she meets Ned, and yet again when Ned proposes to her. She even lampshades it.
-->'''Naomi''': "And when you asked me to marry you I would have said yes if I hadn't passed out. But, really, what can you expect from me? I've probably been unconscious for at least half of this book."
* FlippingTheBird: Naomi flips the bird to Jimbo when he asks, "Where's your boyfriend?".
* FreudianSlip: Naomi accidentally calls Ned "hot" instead of "sweet".
* IdeaBulb: Referenced when Naomi says, "Light bulb" upon getting an idea.
* LargeHam: Naomi talks about how Ned Flanders is "the love of her life", storms off to Alaska after one bad day, and "sighs dramatically" due to not wanting to watch the news.
* {{Lime}}: Naomi takes off her clothes and plans to have sex with Ned, then we skip to afterwards.
* MediumAwareness: Edna's somehow aware of America voting for her and Ned to stay together, even though nobody told her about Naomi's "dimension". Several characters are also aware of ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsonsMovie'' and later, Naomi implies that she's ''aware she's in a "book"''.
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: In a "deleted" scene, Homer is lying in his hammock naked for no reason.
* NarrativeProfanityFilter: When Naomi storms off, she "mutters something profane".
* OriginalCharacter: Naomi is not an official ''Simpsons'' character.
* OutOfCharacter: Many characterisation problems...
** One of the first things Homer Simpson, who's canonically an uncultured slob, does, is tip his hat. He later invites a woman he just met home for dinner, which his family seems to accept as normal.
** Marge thinks it's sweet when Naomi stalks Ned, even though canonically she's one of the most rational, moral characters.
** Ned takes matters into his own hands when Naomi passes out instead of getting a doctor. He also ''shrugs when zombie!Maude is possibly eating his kids.''
* PerverseSexualLust: Naomi had a crush on Ned even when he was fictional to her.
* PortmanteauCoupleName: When Naomi mentions that Ned and Edna used to date, she mentions "team Nedna" as the group of Americans who wanted them to get together. Later, Edna herself uses this word and adds, "not Nedomi or whatever."
* SayMyName: Naomi exclaims Ned's name so much that it's practically her CatchPhrase.
* ThatCameOutWrong: When Naomi asks for employment, she asks, "What can a girl do to make some money around here?", then adds, "That's not what I meant! I mean, like a job."
* TrappedInTVLand: Naomi gets trapped in the ''Simpsons'' universe, but she doesn't seem to mind.
* TheUndead: Maude comes back as a zombie towards the end. Yes, really.
