| − | '''Homer Jay Simpson''' is the father of the [[Simpson family]]. He is an overweight, lazy, and not too bright individual. His behaviour is often absurd, selfish, dangerous, clumsy, idiotic, and insensitive. Despite this, he has shown moments of great intellect, and can be a caring parent and husband at times.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer works as a low level safety inspector at the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]], in [[Sector 7G]], although "working" in this case refers largely to dozing and eating doughnuts or not even going to work at all. He spends a great deal of his time at [[Moe's Tavern]] with his lifelong friends [[Barney Gumble|Barney]], [[Carl Carlson|Carl]], [[Lenny Leonard|Lenny]] and bartender [[Moe Szyslak|Moe]]. At [[742 Evergreen Terrace|home]] he can often be found sitting on the sofa mindlessly watching TV while snacking on food and drinking [[Duff Beer|Duff]].

| − | == Biography ==
| |
| − | [[File:Young Homer.png|thumb|left|175px|Homer in his late teens.]]
| |
| − | Homer Jay Simpson was born as the second child of [[Abraham Simpson]], and the first of [[Mona Simpson]] on May 12th, 1956. He was raised on the Simpsons farm by his parents, [[Mona Simpson|Mona]] and [[Abraham Simpson|Abe]] until they were forced to move out due to Homer Simpson spooking the cows by jumping out of a bale of hay and scaring them into giving sour milk. In the late 1960s, while Homer was between nine and twelve years of age, Mona went into hiding following a run-in with the law. However, before she started protesting, she took Homer and her husband to the Woodstock Convention, where Homer ended up briefly adopting the Hippie lifestyle [and was implied to have been sent away to the Conflict in Vietnam by Abe Simpson as punishment for wanting to be a Hippie.] Homer attended [[Springfield High School]] and fell in love with [[Marge Bouvier]] in 1974.<ref>[[The Way We Was]]</ref> After high school, Homer and Marge bought an apartment at Springfield Place. During this time, Marge gets a letter accepting her into college. To pay for her tuition, Abe gives him a job at Simpson Lazer Tag as well as this, along with [[Lou]] Lenny and Carl, Homer is part of a barbershop quartet. When Marge becomes infatuated by her professor, Homer turns the [[Sadgasm|band]] into a grunge band called [[Sadgasm]]. Marge realizes that she really loves Homer, and she goes back to him.<ref>[[That 90's Show]]</ref> In 1982 (by consistency of the episode [[I Married Marge]]) Marge became pregnant with [[Bart Simpson|Bart]]. At this time Homer was working at [[Sir Putts-A-Lot]], turning the crank that spins the windmill. The two got married in [[Shotgun Pete's 24 Hour Wedding Chapel]], a small wedding chapel across the state line <ref>[[I Married Marge]]</ref>.They spent their wedding reception alone at a truck stop, before ending up at the Bouvier's House, where they lived at the time. After failing to get a job at the newly built [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant|Nuclear Power Plant]], Homer left Marge to find a job by which he could support his family. He went to work at a taco restaurant called the [[Gulp 'n' Blow]], until Marge found him and convinced him to return home with her. As a result, Homer confronted [[Montgomery Burns|Mr. Burns]] and secured a job at the Plant. Two years after Bart was born, Marge became pregnant with [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] in 1984, shortly before the couple brought their [[742 Evergreen Terrace|first house]].<ref>[[Lisa's First Word]]</ref> Homer's second leap to stardom was his success as the lead singer and songwriter for the barbershop quartet the [[Be-Sharps]], even winning a [[wikipedia:Grammy Award|Grammy]]. During his time with the group, Homer was frequently absent from home, which put stress on his marriage. After the group broke up due to creative differences, Homer went back to [[Springfield]] to continue his old life.<ref>[[Homer's Barbershop Quartet]]</ref> Some time in the late 1980s, Homer and Marge carefully budgeted so Homer could work at his dream job, a pin monkey at [[Barney Gumble|Barney's]] [[Al Gumble|uncle's]] [[Barney's Bowl-O-Rama]]. Unfortunately for Homer, Marge became pregnant with [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]] in 1992, shortly after he started his new job, and not being able to support his family, he went back to the Nuclear Plant.<ref>[[And Maggie Makes Three]]</ref> Since then Homer has started many [[List of Homer's Jobs|jobs]], including being a professional astronaut for NASA, but has ended up back where he began at the Nuclear Plant. He has nearly caused the destruction of [[Springfield]] a couple of times, after a nuclear meltdown at the plant and polluting Lake Springfield with his pet [[Plopper|pig]]'s (and his own) waste.<ref>[[The Simpsons Movie]]</ref>

| − | === Future ===
| |
| − | In 2013, Homer's and Marge's relationship has finally ended, after Homer blew the family savings on an underwater house. She began dating [[Krusty the Clown]], and eventually Homer fought him to win her back. Homer was beaten, but Marge still decided to go back to him.

| − | === Homer's Jobs ===
| |
| − | ''For a more detailed list, see [[List of Homer's Jobs|here]]''<br />
| |
| − | When first joining the Power Plant, Homer had a nameless job handling plutonium. Which was later moved up to being the safety inspector for sector 7-G, after complaining about the safety of the plant itself.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer rarely attends his job, and yet hardly gets fired, and always has his job waiting for him when he wants to return. He has impulsively quit occasionally to pursue other carers, although he always ends up losing or quitting these jobs.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Personality ===
| |
| − | [[File:bartyytt.jpg|thumb|150px|right|Homer strangles Bart.]]
| |
| − | Homer's personality is one of frequent stupidity, laziness, and explosive anger; one might say it is that of the [[Wikipedia:Average Joe|"Average Joe"]]. He also suffers from a short attention span which complements his intense but short-lived passion for hobbies, enterprises and various causes. Homer is prone to emotional outbursts; he gets very envious of his neighbors, the [[Flanders family]], and is easily enraged at his son, [[Bart Simpson|Bart]], and strangles him in an exaggerated manner (His trademark phrase to strangling Bart, "Why you Little...!" is implied to have been "Why you little bastard!" <ref>[[Wedding For Disaster]]</ref>. He also spanks Bart sometimes and, in one case, Lisa. He shows no compunction about this, and does not attempt to hide his actions from people outside the family, even showing disregard for his son's well being in other ways, such as leaving Bart alone at a port<ref>[[The Great Money Caper]]</ref>, or allowing Bart to go court for skateboarding naked on his dare when all he would have to do is attend a 1 hour parenting class signifying not only his disregard for Bart but his extreme laziness <ref>[[The Simpsons Movie]]</ref>. While Homer has repeatedly upset people and caused all sorts of mayhem in [[Springfield]], these events are usually caused by either his explosive temper or lack of foresight. Except for expressing annoyance at [[Ned Flanders]], Homer's actions are usually unintentional. Most of his explosive anger is targeted on Bart, because of something stupid or bad he had said or done. Despite their disadvantages, these common outbursts save Homer from dying of a pent-up rage-induced heart attack.<ref>[[I Am Furious Yellow]]</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | While Homer's stupid antics often upset his family, he has also performed acts that reveal him to be a surprisingly loving father and husband, such as selling his cherished ride on the [[Duff Blimp]] and using the money to enter [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] in a beauty pageant so she could feel better about herself<ref>[[Lisa the Beauty Queen]]</ref> ; giving up his chance at wealth to allow [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]] to keep a cherished teddy bear<ref>[[Rosebud]]</ref>; spearheading an attempt to dig Bart out after he had fallen down a well, even though Homer hates doing physical labor<ref>[[Radio Bart]]</ref> and arranging a surprise second wedding with [[Marge Simpson|Marge]] to make up for their [[I Married Marge|lousy first]] ceremony, even going so far as to hire one of The Doobie Brothers as part of the wedding band and getting a divorce from Marge, essentially making their second wedding a "real" one.<ref>[[A Milhouse Divided]]</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer tends to derive amusement from the misfortune of others. He is a chronic petty thief and borderline kleptomaniac, stealing everything from TV trays to power tools and air conditioners, even an entire room of the [[Flanders House]] from [[Ned Flanders]]. He has also stolen golf balls from the local driving range, office supplies (including computers) from work, and beer mugs from [[Moe's Tavern]].
| |
| − | [[File:0000034336 20061020191519.jpg|150px|left|thumb|nail|Homer holding a doughnut]]
| |
| − | Homer has a vacuous mind, but he is still able to retain a great amount of knowledge about very specific subjects. He often shows short bursts of astonishing insight, memory, creativity and fluency with many languages. Homer is also extremely confident; no matter how little skill or knowledge he has about anything he tries to do, he has no doubt that he will be successful. However, his brief periods of intelligence are overshadowed by much longer and more consistent periods of ignorance, forgetfulness and stupidity. Homer has a low IQ due to many factors: his hereditary [[Simpson Gene|"Simpson Gene"]], his alcohol problem, exposure to radioactive waste, repetitive cranial trauma, and the crayon lodged in the frontal lobe of his brain. He also implies in "Grampa vs Sexual Inadequacy" that he would have been at least a bit smarter, if not by a substantial amount, if his father had tried to give him encouragement rather than beat him down. The crayon in his brain is possibly the largest causal factor in his stupidity. Homer's intelligence was said to jump up fifty points when he had the crayon removed, bringing him to an IQ of 105, slightly above that of an average person (though he showed far above average intelligence), but he went back to his old self when he had it reinserted, presumably lowering his IQ back down to its original 55.<ref>[[HOMR]]</ref> This IQ score is, however, likely a joke or oversight on the producers' part, as someone with an IQ of 55 would be unable to look after themselves and would be classified as severely mentally handicapped. Also from the level of intellergence he showed it's much more likely that his IQ was boasted to 135-155.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer has at times debated against his brain. Occasionally, a specific body part such as his face, stomach or liver is also shown debating with his brain. In [[Burns, Baby Burns|one notable scene]] Homer's mind actually leaves his body out of boredom, causing him to collapse. Homer is also inclined to retreat into fantasy, such as daydreaming of Germany as [[The Land of Chocolate|"the land of chocolate"]].<ref>[[Burns Verkaufen der Kraftwerk]]</ref><ref>[[The Simpsons Game]]</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer's attitudes toward woman, romance, and sex are occasionally shown. While Homer's marriage with Marge is occasionally strained, it seems generally happy. Despite this, Homer is often tempted with other women, and usually shows no qualms with gawking at (and drooling over) attractive women. Homer almost had an affair with [[Mindy Simmons]]<ref>[[The Last Temptation of Homer]]</ref>, but ended up not wanting to. He has made the occasional remark denoting his attraction to other women (including his [[Maude Flanders|neighbor's wife]]), even in front of Marge on a occasion, but always shows his devotion to Marge in the end.[[File:.jpg|thumb|The Ingestible Bulk]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Religious Beliefs ===
| |
| − | Despite attending church every Sunday, Homer is not a committed Christian, and it is likely that he only attends church because he knows that Marge would be hurt and shocked if he did not. He does not seem to practice Christian morals and frequently sleeps in church, much to the annoyance of [[Reverend Lovejoy]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Homer has met [[God]] face to face in the episode [[Thank God It's Doomsday]] and has had many other encounters with him too.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Alter ego ===
| |
| − | Homer has obtained a super power before when he became The Ingestible Bulk after a nuclear explosion, his powers are that he's able to eat anything from people to walls. Homer has also become [[Pieman]] when The Rich Texan laughed at Lisa, he chucks pies in the faces of bad guys, uses the basement as a Pie Cave and his car as the Piemobile. Bart is his sidekick as [[Cupcake Kid]]<ref>[[Simple Simpson]]</ref>[[File:Pieman.jpg|thumb|Homer and Bart as Pieman and Cupcake Kid]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Skills and abilities ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Although Homer suffers from extreme stupidity, chronic laziness, rage and weight problems (partly due to the Simpson gene) he still possess's great skill in certain area's. He has proven himself to be a highly talented singer/songwriter from his day's in a barber shop quartertet, to becoming a multiple gold album winning grunge player, even writing song's for Lisa which allowed her to get to the finals of a local talant compitition and can sing opera amazingly when lying down. He's also shown to be able to play guitar, harmonica, drum and piano skillfully. Like Bart he can also speak Japanese fluently and is fluent in a number of other advanced languages. Despite his size he has also shown to be highly athletic at times such as in [[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]] or a decent bare fisted brawler, and in [[Bart Star]] he has a flashback which revealed him to once be an aspiring competitive gymnast. Homer can also ride a horse with incredible skill to the point where he can make it jump and land safely on a pillier a number of feet in the air and that's just the start. Also he is quite brave when he needs to be which is not technically a skill but its true, although he can be a bit of a chicken, when it comes to it he will even risk his life if he has to.

| − | ==Behind the Scenes==
| |
| − | === Creation ===
| |
| − | [[Matt Groening]] first conceived the Simpson family in the lobby of [[James L. Brooks]]' office. He had been called in to pitch a series of animated shorts, and had intended to present his [[Life in Hell]] series. When he realized that animating ''Life in Hell'' would require him to rescind publication rights for his life's work, Groening decided to go in another direction. He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family and named the characters after members of his own family, with Homer being named after his father. Homer then made his debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan on 19 April 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]". Homer's middle initial "J", which was revealed to stand for "Jay",<ref>"[[D'oh-in in the Wind]]"</ref> was a "tribute" to Bullwinkle J. Moose from [[Wikipedia:The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show|''Rocky and Bullwinkle'']], a show Matt Groening loved as a child.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/simpsons/interviews/groening/page9.shtml|title=J is for Jay|accessdate=2007-06-12|publisher=[[BBC]]}}</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | According to Matt Groening, the whole family was designed so that they would be recognizable in silhouette.<ref>{{cite video | people=Groening, Matt; Al Jean, Mike Reiss|year=2001|title=The Simpsons season 1 DVD commentary for the episode "There's No Disgrace Like Home"| medium=DVD|publisher=20th Century Fox}}</ref><ref>{{cite video | people=Groening, Matt; James L.

| |
| − | | |
| − | === Voice ===
| |
| − | Homer's voice sounds different on the shorts than the later half-hour show. [[Dan Castellaneta|Dan Castellaneta's]] earliest portrayal began as a loose impression of [[Wikipedia:Walter Matthau|Walter Matthau]], but developed into a more robust and humorous voice during the second and third season of the half-hour show, allowing Homer to convey a wider range of emotions.<ref name="matthau">{{cite news|author=Brownfield, Paul|title=He's Homer, but This Odyssey Is His Own|publisher=Los Angeles Times|date=[[1999-07-06]]}}</ref> Castellaneta changed the voice, as he could not sustain his Matthau impression for the 9-10 hour long recording sessions and had to find something easier.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1565538/20070725/story.jhtml|title='Simpsons' Trivia, From Swearing Lisa To 'Burns-Sexual' Smithers|accessdate=2007-07-29|date=[[2007-07-26]]|author=Larry Carroll|publisher=[[MTV]]}}</ref> During an interview with the cast of the show on ''Inside the Actors Studio'', Castellaneta stated that Homer's voice was based in part on his own father who often spoke with an exuberant tone.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === Catchphrase ===
| |
| − | Homer popularized the annoyed grunt "[[D'oh!]]" (made memorable through Dan Castellaneta's distinctive voice work), which began as an abbreviated form of [[Wikipedia:Jimmy Finlayson|James Finlayson's]] annoyed "Dooooh" in [[Wikipedia:Laurel and Hardy|Laurel and Hardy films]] and other comedy shorts. This modern interjection has found enough popular acceptance to be included in the [[Wikipedia:Oxford English Dictionary|Oxford English Dictionary]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | He also popularized the catchphrase "[[Mmm...]]". This debuted in 7G04- '''There's No Disgrace Like Home'''. Many examples of other mmm...s are Mmm...candy from 1F03, Mmm...pointy from 3F15 and Mmm...hug from BABF22. He has used it less and less since Season 8.

| |
| − | Homer's inclusion in many Simpsons publications, toys, and other merchandise is evidence of his enduring popularity. He has played central roles in the ''[[Simpsons Comics]]'' series. ''[[The Homer Book]]'', written about Homer's personality and attributes, has been published and is commercially available. Numerous other items such as bottle openers, alarm clocks and other merchandise are widely available for purchase.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Trivia ==
| |
| − | *His social security number is 568-47-0008.
| |
| − | *His blood type is B positive.
| |
| − | *His earmuff size is XL.
| |
| − | *He often writes fist like.
| |
| − | * In one episode he was the only character in the show to say bullshit but "shit" was censored by a honk sound.
| |
| − | *It's implied in ''[[Homer's Triple Bypass]]'' that Homer's bloodstream has a continuous regulation of radioactivity, as Dr. Hibbert was explaining to Marge Simpson that they injected Homer with a Radioactive Dye to see his circulatory system from an X-ray until he learns that the nurse hadn't even injected the dye yet (resulting in Hibbert saying "good lord" in a shocked manner).
| |
| − | *He seems to be almost the exact same as [[Peter Griffin]], whom appears in Family Guy, which premiered 10 years after The Simpsons began. In [[Treehouse of Horror XIII]], one of his clones was [[Peter Griffin]].
| |
| − | *Homer owns the [[Denver Broncos]], despite wanting to own the [[Dallas Cowboys]].
| |
| − | *It is believed that Homer is diabetic as mentioned in "That 90's Show". However if this was true, Homer would most likely be dead because he has never been seen taking insulin and the amount of food that Homer eats would just ensure that would already be dead by the point the episode "That 90's Show" was shown.
| |
| − | *In [[Fear of Flying]] it is shown his favorite song (at the time) was "It's Raining Men".
