'''[[Bart Simpson|Bartholomew "Bart" Jojo Simpson]]''', voiced by [[Nancy Cartwright (actress)|Nancy Cartwright]], is the ten year old child of [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] and [[Marge Simpson|Marge]], and is the brother of [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] and [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]]. Bart's most prominent character traits are his mischievousness, rebelliousness, disrespect for authority and sharp tongue. During the first two seasons of ''The Simpsons'', Bart was the show's main character; while later episodes started to focus more on Homer, Bart remains one of the most enduring characters on the series, and has proven to be one of the most iconic characters in the history of American television animation.
 
  
Bart is a self-proclaimed underachiever who begins each show in detention [[Chalkboard gag|writing lines on the blackboard]]. He is considerably motivated in disrupting the routine at [[Springfield Elementary School|Springfield Elementary]], and his pranks are often elaborately complex, while his actions and speech frequently show considerable mental agility, street-smarts, and understanding. Due to Bart's mischievousness and Homer's often uncaring and incompetent behavior, the two have a turbulent relationship. Bart will often address Homer by his given name instead of "Dad", while Homer in turn often refers to him as "the boy". Whenever [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] finds out that Bart has said or done something stupid or bad, he yells "Why you little–!" (and then strangling him) or simply "BART!". Bart shares a sibling rivalry with his younger sister, Lisa, but has a buddy-like relationship with his youngest sister Maggie (due to her infant state).

Bart was created by [[Matt Groening]] and the name "Bart" is an anagram of the word "brat". Bart then made his debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan on April 19, 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]". Groening's older brother Mark provided most of the inspiration for Bart. Nancy Cartwright originally auditioned for the role of Lisa, but soon thought that her voice would be better suited voicing Bart. Matt Groening let her try out for the part, and upon hearing her read, gave her the job on the spot; thus the yellow-skinned orange-shirted boy was born.

The Personalized Talking Astrolabe is a gold-plated astrolabe.

While out Christmas shopping at Springfield Heights Promenade, Homer spotted the Personalized Talking Astrolabe in the window of Things Unnecessary. Homer immediately became enamored with the object and went into the shop, where an employee showed it to him. However, he looked at the price tag of $500 and realized that if he bought it, he wouldn't have any money left to buy a Christmas tree for the family. The Astrolabe then told Homer that it was Margaret Cho's birthday, which Homer said was the birthday he always forgot. He then decided to buy the Astrolabe.

Due to buying the Astrolabe for himself, Homer had to take the family to get an awful tree in a bad part of town. The tree he purchased immediately caught fire and had to be extinguished. The family started realizing that something was wrong because they should have had enough money for a good tree. The Astrolabe, which Homer had wrapped up, then called out the time in Montreal and said that the moon was waxing that night. Homer tried to play it off as Maggie's first words, but Marge found the gift-wrapped Astrolabe and realized that Homer had wasted their money on something extravagant for himself. Lisa called Homer selfish, and the Astrolabe then told him it was not returnable and started a three-hour smoke alarm test...
