    RE: Your post on HOMR about did anyone actually find any of those jokes funny – yes, I did, Also, the ending was lovely. You guys are huge assholes.

    Oh, and btw, before you accuse me of being one of the “Zombie Legion” – I’m infamous on NoHomers for constantly criticizing Zombie episodes. But even I have my limits.

      Already watching that heck of a junk show makes you in league with the zombies, sir.

        Y’know, the people who write this blog watch Zombie Simpsons too.

          That’s their problem.
          In any zombie apocalypse movie, there was always fight among surviving humans.

    One of you even said once that if you enjoy the new episodes, you “need to go play with some poison”. Yep. Scumbags, that’s what you are.

      And yet you have to the guts to say that you “respect other people’s opinions”. As Edna would say, “HA!”

        There was this one time when you were talking to a “Zombie defender”, as you call them, and you kept saying stuff like “I don’t mind if you like Zombie Simpsons, who am I to stop you from getting enjoyment out of Zombie Simpsons”, pretending to be nice, which seemingly means “smug and patronizing” (notice how you kept emphasizing “Zombie Simpsons” as if you wanted those words to stand out, a bit like that Glenn Beck thing I read about on TVTropes). Yet of course, “smug and patronizing” is nice by your standards!

      RQE who are you? A nobody, that’s who… Or maybe just a CBG wannabe.

        “A CBG wannabe”? What? I’m not the one who constantly nitpicks the episodes.

    On a post about “Holidays of Future Passed”, one of your adoring acolytes said that the guys on NoHomers seem to “actually enjoy Zombie Simpsons” and called them “poor, naive children”. Which isn’t true at all. The vast majority of people on that forum absolutely HATE the new episodes, including myself. But you know what? Maybe they just know a good episode when they see one. Which you’re incapable of doing, because you’d rather nitpick things than actually let yourself enjoy a rare decent episode.

      wait you’re blaming Charlie for a comment that someone else made? While this site might belong to or be run by Charlie, you know that he’s not a dictator right, with rules of conduct for everyone to follow right?

      I mean it sucks that some people lower themselves to name-calling and other types of bullying, but that’s Internet anonymity for you.

      I personally (and probably others here too) would appreciate a clear, intelligent analytic defense of a Zombie Simpsons episode, similar to how this site smacks them down.

      The reason I like this site, is because Charlie supports his criticisms of the current episodes with examples and contrasts with the older episodes – for someone like me, who doesn’t have a knack for literary and script analysis, this site is amazing because it explains why I feel the way I feel.

      if you can provide a similar analysis of any episode that you like, I would definitely read it!

      As for the bullies, ignore them!

          That’s another boiling of crap in a cauldron. Someone who thinks the internet is only flowers and sunshine has them severe manifestations of butthurt phenomenon. If you can’t handle hearing it from Charlie in much sophistecated and polemical ways, then do hear it from me: Zombie Simpsons is ass garbage. Because I can’t watch it. You’re either free to disagree to the extent of your choice, or to agree. In either way, I don’t care. The line is shallow between opinion and argument, and if somebody can’t see the difference, since we’re all in a free medium, are welcome to rage.

    Also, everyone has started calling the new episodes “Zombie Simpsons” since your website started. You know what I call them? Mindless sheep. Who often make fun of the people who enjoy new episodes, calling them the “Zombie Legion”. Oh, the irony! It burns!

            Ok, you want explanation on the whole thing? No problem.
            First of all, I wrote what I thought would be clear: ZS is a terrible show, I’m not watching it and not planning to, the writers or whomever participated in the script writing thereof are individuals basically getting paid for nothing, expect (!) instead of saying the famous “they should try other careers” I did write “they deserve death” because for me, they don’t just got off easy with stuff, and they don’t just have no shame. They took a once great, amazing, wonderful show and turned it into a bunch of crap just because some Ralph Wiggum didn’t feel amused by their past Season 12 episodes. These people worse of all have absolutely no dignity. I mean, I know a shameless marketing scam and jab when I see it, but just not saying “Fuck you Fox, we’re going to go somewhere else and do something else even if doing it will cut our current salaries by 90%” is already a pure sign of ass-liking right there. Maybe, just maybe, they think that Fox will replace them with newcomers and keep the show running. That’s what FOX wants them to think. They’re stupid, because as soon as they leave, there will be no one else there to write for a show that’s half dead, half retarded. Unless they hire zombies from somewhere, that is.
            Second, regarding your behavior. I’m sorry as I can’t PM you messages here (unless you willingly provide your e-mail address in the username that is, of course), but you saying “ok, wow” so to quote, got me a thought of doing just that back then. I mean, if my manner of speech troubles you, if you don’t want to talk to me – like I said above, we’re “talking” in a free medium where nobody know who you or me are, so just don’t reply. That won’t make me mad or anything, because if you do, I will be prone to answer something too and publicly, it may worsen. “Relaxing” is a personal opinion, or even suggestion, so call me a nutjob, but I just don’t understand how this is supposed to counter-argument my thoughts, if anyhow. Do you say it because you don’t want to say anything? If so, then re-read this very paragraph. If not – then why? Are we talking serious or are we joking? Or maybe you care to explain why you differ on the above-mentioned position of myself (in such case, btw, you are welcome to, but don’t think that I will have nothing else of my own to counter-argument with).
            And finally, you coming back with this a month or so later can only mean one thing: something bothers you. Well, if it does, then maybe there is something I must know which I don’t. Instead of it, you just presume that since I once said “this website is not for me”, then I must immediately leave because (and I’m guessing) otherwise I will presumably lose my dignity in front of others for saying stateless things. Well, maybe somewhere like Wikipedia, when you’re being ass-raped by an administrator, I’m sure that would be very meaningful. But here… Honestly, WHO here cares about what I comment on, what I don’t, and whatever I am and I think? That’s the best thing about DHS – I don’t have to explain, I don’t have to make friends or show affection for anyone unless I want to, and we’re definitely not talking about a shitty forum where some motherfucker pops up in a while just to spit out “Hey friend, btw I’m an admin, and yada yada would you puuuhlease be so kind and nice, because umm I don’t want to block you, y’know”… Just because the Western society doesn’t keep peeps with Down Syndrome and full mental retards locked up, why in the name of fuck must I be on pair with them? Because if you give, you get back? Ok, IRL maybe, but on a website that ends up having more hatred for the present than love for the past, WHAT will I give and WHAT will I get back? Anecdotes about quotes from the Seasons long gone? Commentaries on how they did something back in the 1990ies? I wish I had that much interest in this show, which I clearly don’t, but since DHS is not reserved for die-hard fans only – why would I really leave? Like wise, why wouldn’t I? Why must I make clear that decision, and if I said it, keep it because turns out somebody cared?
            I hope that’s enough and, like I said, if you didn’t get half of it – don’t bother getting the other half. You may be happier than you think in your life, and sometimes trying to grasp things beyond your reach is absolutely worthless.
            Amen.

    As long as all you dipshits are berating The Zombies, may I say that She’s Not There is an EXCELLENT song, not that you newtimers would know it, by God.

    And another thing, why do they only post blonde women with fake breasts and full lips? Disgusting individuals, those folks down at NUTS Magazine should be ashamed.

    Matt Selman is a genius.

    I remember there was a guy on NoHomers who sent death threats to Al Jean. He was pretentious as hell as well – there was one post I remember where he said that if you don’t understand Season 2’s subtle humour, you’re an idiot. (Which is a self-contradiction, I have to add.) Subtle stuff like Homer falling down the Springfield Gorge.

      That scene, really THAT one scene is always a ground for debates on the internets.

      Sadly, if that gorge sequence were attempted during the ZS seasons, it would result in little more than Homer walking away dazed with a Homer-sized hole in the ground, while quipping “Gravity, you use to be cool!”

    When I saw this had over 30 comments, I thought it was going to be another debate about the quality of “Homer’s Enemy.” This is much better. Keep it up, guys.
