Bart: "Dad, what's a Muppet?"
Homer: "Well, it's not quite a mop, and not quite a puppet... but maaaa-aaaaan! ... To tell you the truth, I don't really know"
"Can you do me a favor and kill someone on your way out?"
"Well, Scooby Doo can doodoo... but Jimmy Carter is Smarter!"
Frink: Ah, ah, uh, sorry I'm late, there was trouble at the lab with the running and the exploding and the crying. One of the monkeys stole the glasses off my head... *Episode starts to end* Uh, no wait, please no, please I have a funny story to tell!
... "Professor Frink, Professor Frink... he makes you laugh he makes you think..."
"I bent my Wookie!"
Skinner: I hope you're ready for mouth watering hamburgers!
Chalmers: I thought we were having steamed clams?
Skinner: Oh no, I said steamed hams. That's what I call hamburgers.
Chalmers: You call hamburgers "steamed hams"?
Skinner: Yes. It's a regional dialogue.
Chalmers: Uh.. what region?
Skinner: Aaah. Upstate New York.
Chalmers: Really? Well I'm from Utica and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "steamed hams".
Skinner: Oh not in Utica, no, it's an Albany expression.
Chalmers: Ah I see. You know these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty Burgers.
Skinner: Hohohoho. No. Patented Skinner Burgers. Old family recipie.
Chalmers: *lifts up a bun* For.. steamed hams.
Skinner: Yes
Chalmers: Yes, and you call them steamed hams despite the fact they are obviously grilled.

Lou: Y'know I went to the McDonalds in uh Shelbyville the other day.
Wiggum: The McWhat?
Lou: Uh, the McDonalds restaraunt. I never heard of it either but they have over 2000 locations in this State alone.
Eddie: Hmm. Must have sprung up overnight.
Lou: You know the funniest thing though? It's the little differences.
Wiggum: Example...
Lou: Well at McDonalds you can buy a Krusty Burger with cheese, right, but, they don't call it a "Krusty Burger with cheese".
Wiggum: Get out.. well what do they call it?
Lou: A "Quarter Pounder with cheese".
Wiggum: A "Quarter Pounder with cheese"? Well I can picture the cheese, but... uh. Do they have 'Krusty Partially Gelagnated Non Dairy Gum Based Beverages'?
Lou: MmmHmm, they call them "Shakes".
