The Sound and the Flurry/Quotes


 * Bart: Now i'll never get my hands on that---
 * Comic Book Guy: Wait, rapscallion! If you bring me the definitive glossary of comic book sound effects so I can provide scholarly footnotes in my letters to numberous editiors, I will trade you for it.
 * Bart: Deal!
 * Bart (thinking): That's a cinch. I've read enough comics I can make one, myself.
 * Comic Book Guy: And if it doesn't include the best sound effect ever, "Kracka-Thoom!", it's not defintive!


 * Bart: Wham, ka-blam, pow, whump, krack, crash, and slurp. Is that it? If I don't find more sound effects I won't be able to trade for that "Radioactive Man"!
 * Lisa: What's all the hubbub, bub?
 * Bart: I'm making a glossary of comic book sound effects.
 * Lisa: Wow... I'm impressed!
 * Bart: Eat my shorts. But just to make sure, a glossary is like a dictionary, right?


 * Lisa: Researching old comics is a good start, but's it's limiting.
 * Bart: What do you mean?
 * Lisa: Listen. What sounds do you hear?
 * Sounds: Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
 * Bart: Zzzzz. snurk.... gnughn... and flib-bidi-libbida-bip.
 * Sounds: I-libbid-abip!


 * Lisa: I read that one of the most valued contributors to the Oxford English Dictionary was a murder who was fonfined to lunatic asylum. I think you'll do fine.
 * Bart: Thanks, Lisa. I just go an Idea for some field research!


 * Homer: Why you little-!
 * Bart: Comic Book Guy will love hearing this-- it is "klonk" with a "k"!
