If that Gif you responded with in the other comment was from this episode it’s the one where Homer is desperate to be an inventor just like “THOMAS EDISON”! (Who was also a relentless self promoter) it’s been a decade at least since I’ve seen this so go easy on the recollection:

Homer invents the makeup shotgun and tries it on Marge who says she thinks he’s “got that thing set to [Harlequin]”

He also invents the electric hammer and it destroys everything in its path dragging him along for the ride - a second total disaster.

Then Homer nearly eats it falling backward as he leans in his chair at the dinner table. He doesn’t fall as he had added a hinged leg at the back of his chair to tilt out and make contact with the floor to stop him from falling. Marge and the family are actually really impressed with this idea and compliment Homer on it. Proud of himself, the family set off to see the Edison exhibit or whatever it is. As they’re going through Homer sees that Edison’s chair had the same 5th leg. Completely dejected that his one great idea had already been done - by Edison no less. I can’t quite remember how it plays out - I think Homer breaks in and wants to remove the leg from Edison’s chair so he can take credit for the idea” he uses the electric hammer which kinda destroys the whole exhibit. Homer makes his escape and I seem to remember a news cast the next day reporting on the vandalism. The button on the whole saga was that “in happy news” the event had led to the crediting of Edison with two previously undiscovered inventions - the 5th leg anti-tip safety chair, and the electric hammer.

I’m just amazed that for once dad’s butt prevented the release of toxic gas.

It can’t get away fast enough!

They said monorail… but is it not the treehouse of horrors where Bart is feeling unimportant and gains the ability to read people’s thoughts ( I wanna say money paw) and can use his mind to turn them into wonky things? He turns Homer into a Jack in the box.

I remember a radio/tv announcer seeing something really strange happen during a baseball game or something - like the pitcher suddenly gets duck feet - announcer says like “and what do we say whenever something strange happens… it’s good Bart did that”

The whole town becomes terrified of him.

The dude abides. Good call!

3/5?? That’s Lenny not Carl. And racism has no place in these walls!

Reminds me of this old one that did the rounds:

I think a better punchline is “None. The lightbulb has to change itself”

It’s what plants crave!

As for the majority, if not the entirety of the Commonwealth I’d think.

That’s too bad, I really lichen terrariums.

For Peat’s sake!

It’s like they underwent some kind of MOSS extinction event.

You didn’t get them to the inFERNary in time to save them?

Also a kinda creepy Willy Wonka/Slenderman vibe

They’re confidential informants where I’m from - regional differences isn’t surprising, wonder how it’s abbreviated for other languages.

Surely he was far too progressive for them. Although apparently “father I cannot tell a lie” was not actually a quote of his and has been mis-attributed all these years. So Liar: CHECK.

Mr Lisa Goes to Washington : the city of Washington was built on a stagnant swamp some 200 years ago, and very little has changed. It stank then and it stinks now, only today it is the fetid stench of corruption that hangs in the air.

Lisa wins a Reader’s Digest essay contest and the family goes to the finals of the contest in DC. She sees a congressman make a deal to shaft the environment and has a change of heart about the focus of her speech.

Special mention: Speech called “USA, A-OK” and Homer telling the Reader’s Digest rep that he really loves their magazine, esp the section about “How to improve your vocabulary. That thing is really, really, really… good.”

Looks like a locking pin where the groove sits against a sprung ball bearing. Easy enough to insert and release but prevents two parts from moving in a perpendicular path to the pin. Can be used to stop pivoting too.

Makes me think of the kind of pin that you pull out to lift up the seat of a rowing machine to store it vertically.

Now I’m onto an old nineties song lyric from Ammonia “you’re not the only one who… feels this way “
