The Simpsons is syndicated.

Yes. Much better.

Even my colleagues say I've been "Business School Brain Washed" and they are likely right.

Some people are "sticklers for details", and I'm kind of a "d!ck for details".

All I want out of life is to be a monkey of moderate intelligence who wears a suit. That's why I've decided to transfer to business school!

I have the option of retiring in a year if I'd like...so nanana boo boo.

But yes, MBA programs do have some major setbacks, including all you do is think about money.

Back on topic, I'd be pleased to be called Hank Scorpio.

Well, Hank Scorpio, I'd be as happy as Barney drinking a beer if we just spent the rest of this thread making Simpsons and Futurama references.

No cheating, no Googling no nonsense, and spoiler your answers.

Name the Simpson Bullies.

What street is Moe's Tavern located on?

How many children has Apu Fathered?

How many pets, in total, have the Simpsons owned and name them.

What was the name of Bart's first girlfriend?

Lisa made a best friend on vacation that decorated the Simpson's station wagon with shell fish. Who voiced that friend?

Although known for his laziness at work, Homer once was able to triple his production. How was this achieved?

What was the name of the original creator of Itchy and Scratchy?

How much did Marge pay for her original Chanel suit?

When was the last time Doctor Monroe appeared in an episode?

Who voiced Homer's spirit animal/guide?

Does that include the episode when Lisa went through a bunch of cats before getting one that looked exactly like snowball II? If so, my answer is many.

Name the Simpson Bullies.
Easy one. The first bully is Nelson Muntz. The other Bullies are Jimbo Jones, Dolph and Kearney. I know the names of these bullies because when I was nine years old, I thought it was a really good idea to get a haircut like Dolph. My father disagreed for some reason.
What street is Moe's Tavern located on?
This one is not so easy. I know that Moe's Tavern is next door to King Toot's music store. I remember that one from the episode where Homer has to buy Lisa a reed for her recital. I also know that in one flashback, the place is called Moe's Cavern rather than Tavern. I know that Homer once joked that he bought his house because it was down the street from Moe's. So, I guess I could infer that Moe's is on Evergreen Terrace, but I admit that's a pretty big stretch. I'll admit that the best I can do on this one is guess.
How many children has Apu Fathered?
I know that Apu and Manjula had octuplets. I also know that Apu had an affair with the Squishi lady, but I don't think that affair produced any children, so I'll say eight.
How many pets, in total, have the Simpsons owned and name them.
This is maybe the trickiest question you asked. Offhand I can think of Snowball I (rest in peace), Snowball II (rest in peace), Santa's Little Helper, Stampy the Elephant, Snuffy the Hamster from Lisa's terrible poem (rest in peace), Princess the Pony, Laddie the Collie, Mojo the Helper Monkey (does that count as a pet?), Selma's Iguana Jub-jub (does that count?), Bart's frog from that Australia episode (I think it was Bart jr), Those two horn lizards Bart hatched from eggs (wow that boy unleashes a lot of pestilence), Duncan the Horse, Bongo (Homer's boyhood dog), Snowball III (rest in peace), Coltrane (rest in peace), the other Snowball II (who looks identical to the earlier), Strangles the Constrictor, and all those damn animals Lisa was trying to hide in the attic. I feel like I must be forgetting some pets and I'm not sure if all the ones I mentioned count. By my count that's 18 pets.
What was the name of Bart's first girlfriend?
I remember that Bart had a crush on the older girl next door, but she was necking with Jimbo Jones. I guess Bart's first girlfriend was Jessica Lovejoy (unless you count Sarah plain and tall which was a reference to that old made-for-tv movie).
Lisa made a best friend on vacation that decorated the Simpson's station wagon with shell fish. Who voiced that friend?
This one is also easy because I had a crush on Christina Ricci when I was a little boy.
Although known for his laziness at work, Homer once was able to triple his production. How was this achieved?
Homer pressed the "y" key instead of "y-e-s" on his computer terminal, but there doesn't seem to be any "any key".
What was the name of the original creator of Itchy and Scratchy?
Chester Lampwick the bum
How much did Marge pay for her original Chanel suit?
Marge found one knocked down to ninety bucks in that discount outlet mall.
When was the last time Doctor Monroe appeared in an episode?
Marvin Monroe reappeared after a long hiatus in that episode wherein Marge writes a romance novel and Homer buys an old ambulance. I bet a lot of hippies were denied care in that ambulance! I think this was sometime in the fifteenth season, but I don't remember the name of the episode.
Who voiced Homer's spirit animal/guide?
This is your easiest question by far. Johnny Cash!

You definitely love the show as much as I do (if not more)! Great answers.

Don't forget Pinchy the Lobster. Jub Jub isn't a Simpson pet, but still, Jub Jub rules.

I still have a crush on Ricci and never noticed her voice until years after that episode aired. So, so many great guest voices.

samson, are you saying you don't still have a crush on Christina Ricci? Weird.
