Al's Pals

Take the links down. You could've just stated who Larry was and that he's in a band you like.

Take the links down.

Why? There is no objectionable content in them, they don't break forum guidelines or anything, and they are relevant to the topic. They're staying up.

Allow me into Ryans head for a moment. He saw that someone who has played with Al many times in the past is in another band, and he found multiple examples of the band, so he linked more than one in his post. Is that wrong? Not in the least. Now allow me into Pattis head for a moment. Isnt an unruly child usually a problem child? Shes upset because they are stealing her thunder! Second one obviously a joke. Why would more then one link piss people off? You only had to click on one, right?

[algonacchick]

Mike, you always have a way of saying things to make me feel better. btw, Problem Child is a better band name.

Ryan, don't slit your wrists. I'm sorry I over-reacted. You still could've added the info about who Larry was in your initial post, though. Maybe you thought people wanted to go looking the band up...I dunno.

[RyanHippFTW]

Ryan, don't slit your wrists.

According to his Twitter page, Bill Plympton animated the couch gag on this Sunday's episode of The Simpsons.

and according to The Simpsons Facebook page said couch gag will have something to do with this week's reveal.

I figured out long ago the Simpsons Springfield was most likely in Oregon -- MG's from Oregon -- not much of a stretch.

...and according to his Twitter page, James L. Brooks says it's worth tuning in for and either him or another Simpsons staffer hinted that the reference to the "reveal" will be in the chalkboard gag rather than the couch gag.

[minnick27]

Yeah this whole reveal thing is stupid. For one, he always said it was based on his life, and he is from Oregon. And it's rather disappointing since I read an interview in TV Guide 20 years ago saying he wouldn't reveal it until the show was over.
