Welcome to TheSimpsons, a community for discussing everything related to America's non-prehistoric cartoon family, The Simpsons!
Right about now, you're probably saying, "Troy, basically every post starts with 'Guess the Episode', is that all this community is?"
To which I say you've got some attitude, mister.
But no, any Simpsons content is allowed in this community, although we do ask that you keep the shitposting over in !simpsonsshitposting@sh.itjust.works.

Guess the Episode "Rules"
- Post a screenshot from an episode of the Simpsons. Frinkiac being a popular source.
- If posting a GIF the file size should be less than 1MB, otherwise it may not be animated.
- Easy, a screenshot any who's seen the Simpsons would get.
- Medium, a screenshot that would take a moment for most people to get.
- Hard, a screenshot that someone only gets after you explain it to them.
- Genius at Work, a screenshot that makes someone go, "Yeah, that's from The Simpsons, the one where the family does the funny thing".
These "Rules" aren't real, so if you think of something clever, do that instead.

I forget the character's name but I believe he's voiced my Steve Martin
Which is even funnier considering he has no funny lines the man does comedy in his sleep. Or so I like to think, I hope he's not an asshole these days I haven't kept up. I'll be fine with him being the jerk (okay watched most of his movies but that one and Roxanne are the ones I knew for sure haven't watched sure some others but always loved him since Three Amigos).
Okay apparently I haven seen as much of his early films as I thought, I figured growing up then I caught more. He was always on tv regardless (well sort of but you know what I mean if you had tv before streaming)
Steve Martin is most definitely The Jerk.
(But also watch Only Murders in the Building if you're looking for his more recent work, otherwise watch anything Steve Martin and you'll be good.)
Was it Patterson? Don’t remember the first name. I didn’t know it was Steve Martin who voice him.
You're screwed. Thank you. Bye.
Correct!
Ray Patterson
That’s it.
Old man Ray Patterson who had his finger on the button
What button!!!
