Part 2 of the Christmas 2014 event began on December 24, 2014 and ended on January 14, 2015 for winning or buying event prizes and on January 18, 2015, all the rest of the items in the Store related to the event will be removed.
The premise of the second part was to, after Santa warns the residents of Springfield that the partying elves will likely destroy their town with their Spring Break-like behaviour, bottle the Elves and shoot them out of a cannon. Upon collecting elves, they could drop Cogwheels which were used to upgrade the Elf Cannon. After shooting the Elves out of the Elf Cannon or from visiting friends you also earned Elf Bells which went towards unlocking Personal Prizes.

Gameplay
Friend Visits
The Elves Fired Report Leaderboard The friend's cannon level window. Friends visits lets you get even more Bells, but, as of the Halloween 2014 Event, you get a limited amount the more friends you visit.
- Actions 1-30: 5 Elf Bells each
- Actions 31-60: 3 Elf Bells each
- Actions 61-90: 2 Elf Bells each
- Actions 91-120: 1 Elf Bells each
After 40 friends you won't get any Elf Bells, just Money, XP and FP (or a chance at donuts if you are at max FP level already.
However there're one great way of earning even more bells: Tap the cannons and tunnels!
If you tap your friends' Elf Cannon and Elf Tunnels you get DOUBLE Elf Bells! So it becomes:
- Actions 1-30: 10 Elf Bells each
- Actions 31-60: 6 Elf Bells each
- Actions 61-90: 4 Elf Bells each
- Actions 91-120: 2 Elf Bells each
You can only tap friends's cannons and tunnels if they started phase 2.
While visiting a Friend's Springfield if one taps the Cannon Control Building they can check their Cannon's Level.

- 24 link The user actually starts with 218 when the screen with the prizes shows up due to completing the quest O Cannonbaum Pt. 1 (200) and firing 9 elves (18) (the 10th one will count after collecting the Elf Bells when you close the Prize window). With this, the actual initial price to unlock The North Pole shows up as 135 instead of 150.
Prize Daily Chart
This chart lets you know how many bells you need to collect to recieve all the prizes. The Elf Bells needed column refers to the number of Elf Bells you need to collect that day, not the ones you need to unlock the Prize.

The North Pole
|
System Message
|
The North Pole has been placed in your inventory.
|
|
Cool, Dad, look! It’s the North Pole.
|
|
What's it doing here? Shouldn't it be in front of a barbershop or in North Dakota or something?
|
|
Are you saying Springfield is not in North Dakota?
|
|
Well when you put it like that, let's keep it!
|
Task: Place The North Pole and Tap The North Pole Tapping "Do it" on the former takes you to the Decorations section of the Inventory, where "The North Pole" is in yellow text. After quest completion:

System Message
|
The Cannon Control Building has been placed in your inventory.
|
|
Professor Frink here. This pixie popper is impressive, but we can do better.
|
|
I've created this custom control panel that will allow you to improve the cannon. I'll really put the KAA in your KAA-BOOM!
|
|
Cannon improvements don't grow on trees, though. Really, nothing scientific does.
|
|
Every time you catch an elf, you should frisk the frisky creature for cogwheels in its pockets.
|
Task: Place the Cannon Control Building Task: Collect Cogwheels and Upgrade the Elf Cannon (Level 2) Once the Cannon Control Building is tapped the Cannon Control Building Level up screen shows up:
And it's possible to upgrade the cannon using Cogwheels (The picture shows the cannon at Level 21) Quest reward: 200 and 10

Elf Bottler
|
After tapping on Professor Frink's exclamation mark:
|
|
Ga-hoy, it's me again. I'd like to help you with an amazing invention to speed up catching elves.
|
|
Thanks, labcoat, but I think we can handle this through old-fashioned police work: tasering.
|
|
But that's what this is! A giant taser tuned precisely to the metabolism of elves.
|
|
You've done it again, you fantastic brainoid!
|
Task: Catch Elves with the Elf Bottler (x20) Quest reward: 100 and 10

All Sequels Aren't Equal
|
System Message
|
Sequel Stop has been placed in your inventory.
|
|
Sequel Stop?! A video game store? I thought they all went out of business years ago.
|
|
They rebranded. Now they offer an "intimate atmosphere” to debate the merits of various sequels.
|
|
They hire sad hipster art school drop-outs. If you can convince one of them you're right, you get an out-of-date video game for free.
|
|
You can never convince them you're right.
|
Task: Place the Sequel Stop and Make a Springfielder Argue About Sequels Count [x10] (2h, Sequel Stop) Make Homer Try to Score a Free Sequel Count (2h, Sequel Stop) After quest completion:
|
|
So, did you end up winning the argument and getting a game for free dad?
|
|
No.
|
|
Not only did I lose the argument about fifteen different franchises, but now I'm also seriously considering going back to school to study art.

|
|
Don't be silly. A robot Santa would be absurd. This is a Japanese character called "Annual Gift Man."
|
|
He lives on the moon, delivers presents to children and fights giant monsters in Tokyo with his rocket.
|
|
Much more sensible.
|
Task: Annual Gift Man

Hi daddy!

Pointy ears, striped pants, jingle toes... What happened to you, sweetie?!
|
|
I had a lemonade snow cone!
|
|
I'm afraid he ate some snow contaminated with magical reindeer urine, and it turned him into an elf.
|
|
Really?
|
|
Yes, it's all explained in the last verse of the Rudolph song
|
|
*singing* "If you eat some Rudolph pee, an elf you'll be for eternity."
|
|
I never heard that verse.
|
|
It's usually omitted for brevity.

Tropical Island Nofari
|
System Message
|
Tropical Island has been placed in your inventory.
|
|
Your largest bottle of sunblock, Apu. I'm headed to a tropical paradise.
|
|
As someone born in the tropics, I can tell you it's no paradise.
|
|
People who live in hot places are always miserable, constantly getting bitten by nasty things, and just as fat as here but sweatier.
|
|
Anyway, there's enough sunblock in this bottle to cover 23 acres of skin. Who's it for?
|
|
Me.
|
|
You will need two.
|

|
|
Dad! There's a new island just offshore from Squidport!
|
|
Even though it’s snowing here, it’s sunny and warm there.
|
|
Yeah, the game developers couldn’t figure out a way to explain that, so they just did it.
|
|
Anyway, first we take six months of standup paddle board lessons and then island ho.
|

Bells Bonus
This message appears after pressing "Do it" on either task in "Tropical Island Nofari":

You've collected all personal prizes! But why stop? There are still elves running around, just waiting to be launched into the sky. If you collect enough Elf Bells you'll earn some donuts.
|
Task: Collect Elf Bells [x4000]
|
After every 4,000 you accumulate:
After selecting one of the boxes, you receive between 1-3, and if you don't get 3 can pay 50,000 to have a chance to win it on the other two boxes. It works exactly the same as the Bonus Level Ups, but with Elf Bells, not XP.

Because Santa is opening a new toy workshop right here in Springfield for next year’s Christmas!
Template:Tapped Out Santa Icon
|
Thanks to global warming, the ice under my old workshop at the North Pole melted, and everything sank into the Arctic Ocean.
Template:Tapped Out Santa Icon
|
It was a terrible catastrophe. Many holiday favorites died, including Frosty and Rudolph.
|
|
I’ve been warning people about the threat global warming posed to Santa for years, but no one listened!

Project After-Party Pt. 1
This quest will trigger if the user has built the Toy Workshop.
When the player logs in on December 24 when Part 2 starts:
|
|
Well, Christmas came. Despite depending on Springfield, it actually came.
|
|
I guess you elves probably have to start right away making toys for next year.
Template:Tapped Out HLE Bismuth Icon
|
Nah, we’re headed to Florida for three months of R and R.
Template:Tapped Out HLE Leopold Icon
|
We work hard, we party harder.
|
|
Why not stay and spend your hard-earned money right here in Springfield?
|
|
We have lots of coupons and our prices are low, low, low thanks to our permanently depressed economy.
|
|
Yeah, it’ll be fun. We’ll go to Moe’s.
Template:Tapped Out HLE Leopold Icon
|
It’s a little dark and gloomy in there.

Project After-Party Pt. 3
After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
Wow. Who would’ve thought elves would party so hard?
|
|
Topless guys chugging beer!
|
|
Topless women with stars painted over their boobs!
|
|
A KBBL broadcast tent!
|
|
A bikini dance-off on the Duff Party Stage!
|
|
Homer, get down from that bikini contest.
|
|
Woo! Spring Break Springfield. Vote for me, party hounds!
|
|
There’s noisy, drunk selfish elfish all over town. We’ve got to round them up!
|
|
What do I do when I catch one? Won't it just fly away again?
|
|
Stuff it in a mason jar. I have a lot of mason jars. I just love canning.
|
|
Oh, they’re hard to catch when they’re having this much fun.

O Cannonbaum Pt. 1
After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
Well, we have a bunch of bottled elves. Now what?
|
|
Gentlemen, I have the solution. You see, I’ve been working on a giant cannon.
|
|
I’d originally planned to use it to blast myself to the moon, as in the famous book by Jules Verne, with science fiction and the “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea-ea-ea”.
|
|
That’s 20,000 leagues traveled around the Earth while underwater.
|
|
20,000 leagues straight down would put you far away in outer spa-a-a-ace.
|
|
Where’d everybody go?

Project After-Party Pt. 4
After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark:
|
|
How can you do such a terrible thing as put elves in bottles and shoot them out of a cannon?
|
|
Relax, young lady. I’ve aimed the cannon so they will land in soft snowbanks near the North Pole.
|
|
There, helpful polar bears will shatter the bottles with a swipe of their mighty paws, freeing the elves to defend themselves from the bears’ insatiable hunger.
|
|
Those poor elves, eaten by polar bears! On the other hand, those adorable bears, starving because of global warming…
|
Task: Make Lisa Agonize Over a Moral Choice (12h, Simpson Home) Quest reward: 200 and 10

Is it possible we could use the cannon to shoot bags of dog food to the polar bears?

Possible, yes. Likely, no.
|
|
Project After-Party Pt. 5
After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
My mom has entered so many wet T-shirt contests for the elves that she caught pneumonia.
|
|
That’s terrible. Whose boobs will the elves get to see caressed by wet, clingy cotton?
|
|
Tend to your mother, Nelson. I shall take her place.
|
|
Okay. But we get ten percent of any money shoved into your underwear.
|
|
No, Nelson. That ten percent goes to the church.

SKIN-NER! Why are drunk elves cavorting naked on the monkey bars?
|
|
One of them is Ralph, so it counts as a student learning about foreign cultures.
|
|
Just have the Groundskeeper Willie get rid of those leprechauns.
|
|
I’m Scottish, not Irish. I know nothing about the wee folk of the Celtic Tiger.
|
|
But you know how to dynamite gophers, so improvise.

Project After-Party Pt. 8
After tapping on Cletus's exclamation mark:
|
|
Hey, elves. If your late-night partying has done left you hungry as a wall-eyed mule, why not come down to Cletus’s Vittle Shack.
|
|
We’s got all your favorites: Chipmunk on a Stick with dipping sauce…

Project After-Party Pt. 9
After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark:
|
|
Lisa! I need your help to find another way besides the Elf Cannon to get elves out of Springfield.
|
|
You agree with me it’s not humane?
|
|
Oh I’m fine with blasting elves to who knows where, but the cannon is balanced for donuts, and no one is spending.
|
|
The cheap bastards.
|
|
We have to find a non-premium alternative, and with your expert knowledge I thought you could help.
|
|
What expert knowledge?
|
|
You’ve watched more “Happy Little Elves” TV shows than any girl in history.
|
|
While you can learn a lot of important life lessons from TV…
|
|
And freemium games.
|
|
…I think we’re going to need to do a little more serious research.

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
Good news, Dad. According to our research, elf infestations like this one always end by the middle of January.
|
|
No one is sure why, but one theory is they want to be home in time to honor Doctor King.
|
|
So you don’t have to use the Elf Cannon anymore!
|
|
Okay, Lisa, I’ll stop. But I doubt Sky Finger will.
|
|
That person obviously gets cruel kicks from blasting tiny helpless creatures into space.
|
|
Sometimes I worry about our world.

Well, Sky Finger continues to show no mercy.

Although it is fun to watch those little guys fly.
|

I just hope Sky Finger is careful. What if it accidentally tapped on something that wasn’t an actual elf?
|
|
Yes, indeed. What if…
|
|
Children! Announcing a new uniform for our special “Bright Future” students, Bart, Nelson, Jimbo, Dolph, and Kearney.

Episode tie-in questline
The full questline was deleted in the "Patch 1" update on December 5, therefore players only got the chance to receive Ice Princess Martin and Pt. 1 of the questline. The Ice Palace was added back on "Promos" updated on December 22, therefore the questline resumed on Part 2 if the user buys the Ice Palace.
- Even though Pt. 1 of the questline was played during Part 1 of the event, we have placed it in the Part 2 sub-page as to not be unorganized.
The Princess Nerd Pt. 1
- This quest and the following questline is only available if the player "Use"s Ice Princess Martin from the inventory.
After tapping on Martin's exclamation mark:
|
|
Lisa, I heard that this year's Christmas couch gag will honor my favorite movie of all time.
|
|
And I think that's great, because the couch gag is the most important part of the episode.
|
|
Sixty percent of the viewers change the channel after it's done.
|
|
Don't be silly. It's no more than fifty percent.
|
|
Anyway, I was wondering... could I be in the couch gag this year?
|
|
I've already got the beautiful dress that my favorite character wears.
|
|
Sorry, Martin. Only Simpsons appear in the couch gag.
|
|
And as the heart and soul of the show, if anyone is going to portray one of America's favorite heroines, it's going to be me.
|
|
I'm devastated with disappointment!
|
|
But wearing this dress, I feel empowered as I never have before.
|
|
So I'm not going to hold on to my disappointment.
|
|
I'm going to sing my song, and "Allow it to go away".
|
Task: Make Ice Princess Martin Sing his Cares Away (60m) After selecting "Start":

- This quest and the following questline is only available if the player "Use"s Ice Princess Martin from the inventory after December 8.
After tapping on Martin's exclamation mark:
|
|
Lisa, I heard that this year's Christmas couch gag will honor my favorite movie of all time.
|
|
I've already got the beautiful dress that my favorite character wears.
|
|
But Martin, the episode already aired! We already did the couch gag.
|
|
It was a trademark wicked parody of the most beloved children's movie of the last few years.
|
|
Or a feeble mashup, depending on which website you check.
|
|
I missed it? I'm devastated with disappointment!
|
|
But wearing this dress, I feel empowered as I never have before.
|
|
So I'm not going to hold on to my disappointment.
|
|
I'm going to sing my song, and “Allow it to go away”.

|
The Princess Nerd Pt. 2
The quest continues only if the user buys the Ice Palace.
After tapping on Martin's exclamation mark:
|
|
What a beautiful ice palace you have there, Martin.
|
|
It's amazing what you can build when you have a little self-confidence.
|
|
And it's all thanks to my song: "Allow it to go away, allow it to go away, can't detain it any additional time."
|
|
It's catchy.
|
|
Well, we better check out the Ice Palace while we can.
|
|
Even though it's premium it'll almost certainly melt with the spring update.

After tapping on Martin's exclamation mark:
|
|
Man, Martin is really looking for trouble with his princess dress and Ice Palace.
|
|
Not to mention his man-tiara.
|
|
It's an outrage to the non-sissy spirit of this country when a boy shows interest in a girl thing, no matter how good that thing is.
|
|
We must ostracize him like we did to Wendell when we found him reading “Betty and Veronica” comics.
|
|
No more playdates, school projects, or picking him for your softball team.
|
|
We always pick him last anyway.
|
|
Not good enough!

After tapping on Martin's exclamation mark:
|
|
Man, listen to that song Martin is singing. It's really catchy.
|
|
“Allow it to go away, allow it to go away…” Where have I heard that before?
|
|
Nowhere!
|
|
Well all I know is, a song written by middle-aged hipsters about using feel-good psychobabble to cure the self-censorship that creative professionals impose on themselves because of the fear of failure…
|
|
Is awesome!
|
|
I love it too!
|
|
All the kids love it, for some reason no one can explain.
|
|
Martin, please forgive us for being mean. Can we come play in your Ice Palace?
|
|
Of course, my good friends!
|
|
Just as a warning, it's extremely slippery inside, so I've hired sherpas to get you up the stairs.

The Princess Nerd Pt. 6
After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark:
|
|
Oh my goodness! The ice carvers in the Springfield Ice Sculpture Festival have run out of blocks of ice!
|
|
So they're going to carve the blocks they need out of the Ice Palace!
|
|
That's a pretty arch peril, but okay. Come on, friends, we must defend the Ice Palace!
|
|
I want to… but I'm not confident I can.
|
|
Me neither.
|
|
Damn it! We all lack confidence.

Okay, we sang our uplifting song, and now I'm ready to rip the guts out of those ice sculptors who want to destroy the Ice Palace.
|
|
Throw stuff out the windows at them!
|
|
Throw playdate trash!
|
|
Throw ice balls!

Throw what the monkeys in the zoo throw!

Uh, Martin, you just shot freeze spells from your hands at those guys.

It seems the longer I wear this dress, the greater my ice princess powers become.

You gave one of them frostbite. I think the other one might be dead.

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark:

Hi Martin, I'm here for my playdate. Hope you don't mind… I'm also wearing an Ice Princess costume.

Okay with me, but so is Bart.
|
|
And Milhouse.
|
|
Wow, you're all wearing Ice Princess dresses. It's great that a movie about girls can get through to boys too.
|
|
So, shall we play tea party?
|

Nah, we're playing “GUT SPEW”, the new super-violent first-person shooter.

In our dresses.

It's a tight fit, tighter than a halo on a fat angel. Gotta bend, stretch, and wiggle my behind to get into it.

What can I do for you, pray-boreenos?

Our only bible has fallen through a crack in the floor. Can you bend way over get it out?

Mr. Flanders! Could I get some help changing the tire on Mr. Burns car?

Frankincense, Myrrh, and Donuts Pt. 1
After tapping on Apu's exclamation mark on December 22:
|
|
Ahhhh. While the Christians are going insane with last second shopping and their visiting relatives, I relax at home with a Bollywood movie and takeout Indian food.
|
|
Because takeout is the only way I get to experience the food of my native land, Manjula-who-never-cooks!
|
|
Maybe if you stopped “relaxing” and looked after an octuplet once in a while I could find the eight hours I need to cook one of your traditional sixteen-course dinners.
|
|
And another thing! The octuplets and I want a Christmas tree.
|
|
We’re not getting involved in some crazy Christian festival.
|
|
We’re Hindus. We already have enough crazy festivals of our own. I mean, you remember “Holi”? It’s insane.
|
|
Apu, we are in America now, and we want to be like Americans. Besides, it’s fun.
|
|
As the man of the house I forbid.
|
|
Octuplets! Harass the “man of the house”.

Nooo!

After tapping on Apu's exclamation mark on December 23:
|
|
Homer, help me! Manjula wants a Christmas tree, and I don’t know the first thing about them.
|
|
Are they like the peepal tree in which Lord Vishnu hid during the war of gods and demons?
|
|
A little, I guess. But I don’t know where you’re going to find a tree on Christmas Eve.
|
|
All the tree lots will be sold out. Maybe you should try the Kwik-E-Mart.
|

Trust me, if the Kwik-E-Mart had them, they’d cost too much for me to afford.

Holiday Donut Promo
After tapping on Gil's exclamation mark on December 24 when Part 2 starts:
|
|
Last second Christmas trees! Get your last second Christmas trees here.
|
|
Old Gil sunk his life savings into these trees, so he’ll stand here freezing until he sells ’em all.
|
|
Oh thank heavens. I’ll take one tree.
|
|
Here ya go. Oh, this one’s a beaut. Most of the needles fell off, but that’ll just make it easier to find the branches to hang the ornaments off.
|
|
Ornaments? What are you talking about?
|
|
Oh, you gotta have ornaments. What are the kids gonna hang on the tree?
|
|
Do not mention children and Christmas in the same sentence, I beg you. Now, where can I get these “ornaments”?
|
|
It just so happens, I sell them. Festive red-and-green holiday donuts to hang on the tree.
|
|
That sounds very strange.
|
|
You’ll understand in one moment.
|
The Holiday Donut Promo pops up.
|
|
The offer appears, showing Gil in a Santa Suit in front of a plate of white, red and green donuts. He is saying "Celebrate the season with even more donuts!".
The offer lasted between December 24, 2014-December 27, 2014. After tapping Gil, it links to the menu depicted in the image to the right. Tapping "Go to" within the Store front offer panel, it links to the "Currency" section of the Store.
In the store, the donut pictures had a new Christmas design.
Dozen Holiday Donuts (+1/8%)
Stack of 60 Holiday Donuts (+6/10%)
Tray of 132 Holiday Donuts (+18/14%)
Truckload of 300 Holiday Donuts (+45/15%)

Dad, have you decided on your New Year's resolution? Or, might I suggest, resolutions?
|
|
Lisa, I can’t set a new resolution until I complete last year's: stop procrastinating.
|
|
But I guess I can always stop procrastinating tomorrow. Tonight we celebrate!

We shall turn toward the majestic sky and assault it with explosives. Just to take that high and mighty sky down a notch.

The Italian Grenadessance! Pt. 1
After tapping on Giuseppe's exclamation mark:
|
|
Mama Mia! It's-a New Years Eva!
|
|
Also known as the January Kalends in Italy. A time of food, gifts, and excessive hand gestures.
|
|
You're'a mistaken! It’s the January Kleanse, where we celebrate the New Year by blowing up everything of the old year.
|
|
It’s-a great Italian tradition dating back to the intentional demolition of the Roman Empire.
|
|
I don’t think that-
|
|
Or Pompeii, where we blew up Mt. Vesuvius totally on-a purpose!
|
|
You can still see-a the smiling, happy faces of the people of Pompeii frozen in ash, mid-party.
|
|
Are we talking about the same Pompeii?
|
|
But-a nothing compares to the expressions of the people when they see my New Year party-poppers.
|
|
I'm starting to think maybe I WON'T do my year abroad in college in Italy.

Task: Make Giuseppe Construct Fireworks (12h, Giuseppes Workshop) Quest reward: 100 and 10
|
|
It looks like there's a new guy in town trying to edge in on our illegal fireworks racket! Is nothing sacred?
|
|
Take him out, nice and clean. Send him a gift-wrapped package that will go boom.
|
|
A subwoofer? So thoughtful.
|
|
He means a bomb. But boss, he’s full-blooded Italian – how do we know he’s not untouchable?
|
|
I'll touch who I want, when I want, however I want!
|
|
Can't we just kill the guy?
|
|
The Italian Grenadessance! Pt. 2
After tapping on Giuseppe's exclamation mark:
|
|
Someone has sent me a great gift!
|
|
This package looks very suspicious. The return address is “Mafia HQ.” And it’s ticking…
|
|
Also it says "Do Not Jostle Bomb" on the side.
|
|
Just like momma used to make in The Old Country, which was the name of our bomb factory.
|
Task: Make Giuseppe Admire the Gift Bomb's Craftsmanship (24h, Giuseppes Workshop) Quest reward: 100 and 10
|
|
The Italian Grenadessance! Pt. 3
After tapping on Giuseppe's exclamation mark:
|
|
Lisa, I have a special surprise for you!
|
|
Is it dangerous?
|
|
No! Now-a just put on that padding and approach slowly.
|
|
I've-a turned the bomb into the biggest firework that-a Springfield has ever seen!
|
|
And I had enough left over to make the second biggest firework Springfield has ever seen!
|
|
Giuseppe, your kindness and ingenuity has made me want to turn over a new leaf.
|
|
Legs, don’t dump that body. Recycle it instead.

Best New Year's Day Ever Pt. 2
After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
What was that? I may be just a collection of pixels but I still have a right to free speech!
|
|
I don’t even know what I just did in my own house, but I bet it was unspeakable!
|
|
And all for 2 miserable donuts? The people who run this game are just cheap mother--

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
How is that fun? I had to drop a thirty pound bucket filled with frozen beer on my head, three times in a row?
|
|
I couldn’t even drink it because it was frozen. That’s insult to injury.
|
|
Now please, make me do something worthy of a responsible adult male.

Best New Year's Day Ever Pt. 5
After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
|
|
Homer, stop playing that inexplicably successful myPad game about that inexplicably successful woman.
|
|
But Marge, I need to buy these over-priced sunshades so I’ll get invited to the VIP party and become a Z-list celebrity.
|
|
This is the only way I’ll feel validated as a woman.
|
|
Please, whoever is in charge, make Homer do something useful and productive with his time.

- 26 link Before December 16th update, after the task, Homer would have said "Reeeeeally funny! It doesn't make sense! And besides... 2015 better have bigger plans. I know I asked the same thing last year, and that's the point! It's the worst New Year's Day ever.".
