1. Good, but I think just the first line might be better. | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 16:15, 3 May 2013 (EDT)
2.  :P --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 18:49, 3 May 2013 (EDT)
3. It would be an okay quote with just the first line, but the other lines have the exchange between Skinner and Willie and make it better. -- Mythigator 09:33, 29 May 2013 (EDT)

@Randomno, that's probably because you have no idea what "contentious" means, which is the whole joke of Willie's reply to Skinner. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 16:37, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

Definiton didn't help. :| | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 17:03, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

Googling "define:contentious" brought up: "Causing or likely to cause an argument; controversial." define: is your friend. ☆The Solar Dragon ^{(Talk - Contribs.)}☆ 03:22, 4 May 2013 (EDT)

I said the definition didn't help. :| | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 03:26, 4 May 2013 (EDT)

―Homer Simpson

A funny tweet from Homer. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 06:11, 1 July 2012 (EDT)

1. I like it. We've had quotes and nominations aplenty showing Homer's dumbness; now we've got one showing his gluttony. -- Mythigator 10:23, 15 September 2012 (EDT)
2. Yeah, I like it. Is it the first tweet by "Homer" up for featured quote nomination? --Fred (Talk • Contribs. • Editcount) 08:32, 12 January 2013 (EST)

1. It's ok, but not really anything super funny. --Nick97 ^{(talk ~ contribs)} 20:27, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

1. Classic Bart attitude and a good zinger on Homer. Also, a good example of a quote that works well on its own. -- Mythigator 09:38, 29 May 2013 (EDT)

"OK, Mr. Burns! Er, what's your first name?"

―Post Office worker

"I don't know! [outside the post office] Great plan, Bart(!)"

―Homer

A funny quote from "Blood Feud", and shows Homer's dumbness. ~ Phinbart (talk • contribs) 15:32, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

1. One of those ones which doesn't work too well on its own. | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 16:45, 14 March 2013 (EDT)
   Another thing is that you can't really express Homer's voice and feelings in the quote. | | Talk | Contributions | Edit count | 15:36, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

1. Doesn't work as a featured quote because it relies too much on the context. -- Mythigator 09:36, 29 May 2013 (EDT)
