'''John''' is the gay owner of [[Cockamamie's Collectibles Shop]], an offbeat store filled with various "camp" items.

== History ==
He first appears when he shows that "a very old figurine" belonging to the [[Simpsons]] was just an old liquor bottle, quickly striking up a friendship with the family. Whilst exploring the Simpson's house searching for any value in the items there, Homer takes a shine to him. However, upon hearing that John is a homosexual, Homer turns against him. The rest of the family continue to enjoy John's company, with him taking them on a tour of Springfield. After a while Homer fears that John's homosexuality is rubbing off on Bart and decides to take him hunting. After Homer has sustained a severe beating from a group of reindeer, John saves him, scaring the reindeer off with a Japanese robot Santa Claus. With this act he earns Homer's trust. He is seen wearing Homer's "Pin Pals" bowling shirt, which [[Marge Simpson]] presumably gave away. It is hinted that John has been dating [[Waylon Smithers, Jr.]].<ref>"[[Homer's Phobia]]"</ref>

He attended the [[Green Day]] concert.<ref>''[[The Simpsons Movie]]''</ref>

John was on the gay dating app [[U.S. Male Service]].<ref>"[[Portrait of a Lackey on Fire]]"</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
In the episode "[[Homer's Phobia]]", John is voiced by and modeled after John Waters. His character is seen wearing Homer's "Pin Pals" shirt from "[[Team Homer]]".
