  • No thanks, I’d rather give you a quick episode summary for “Homer vs. Dignity”.

It first aired on the Fox network in the United States on November 26, 2000. In the episode, Mr. Burns hires a cash-strapped Homer as his “prank monkey”, paying him to play pranks on others and humiliate himself in public.

    “Homer vs. Dignity”

    Season 12 / Episode 5 (9:15)

    Homer vs. Dignity" is the fifth episode of the twelfth season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It first aired on the Fox network in the United States on November 26, 2000. In the episode, Mr. Burns hires a cash-strapped Homer as his “prank monkey”, paying him to play pranks on others and humiliate himself in public.

    The episode was written by Rob LaZebnik in his last writing credit for over eight years, until season 20’s “Father Knows Worst”. The episode features cultural references to The Magic Christian and The Birds.

    Chalkboard gag: “I was not the Sixth Beatle”

    Couch gag: Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie successfully do skateboard tricks off a ramp and onto the couch but Homer falls off the ramp and is hit on the head by his skateboard.







  • Well, again, a separate easy mode wouldn’t affect you at all. Not everyone is going to be like you. You and I find it rewarding to overcome the difficulties the game presents, and for people who want an easy mode to explore and have a chill time with, it’d be just as rewarding for them to focus on what they want to focus on. I really don’t see the point of getting all bent out of shape over it. Even papa Miyazaki said he is OK with people wanting to use mods to make the game easier or to do silly things (as long as it’s offline so it doesn’t ruin it for others), as long as they’re having fun, that’s all that matters. I would be fine with an easy mode. Everyone has different definitions of fun, after all, and tbh, I do see the obvious appeal of an easy mode. It would expand the player base, for one. It’d open it up for casual less skilled players, which I see as a net win. The gatekeeping mentality of this community has to go.
