Grampa's Christmas Origins: Christmas Lights/Quotes
Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
- Bart: Grampa?! What are you doing in there??
- Grampa: Trying to stop another war of the worlds, that's what! You see, putting lights on houses isn't a human custom... it's the work of aliens!
- Grampa: It was Christmas Eve, 1947, in the desert town of Roswell, New Mexico...
- Male Rigellian: After many months on this godforsaken planet, we finally have enough power to light out ship's S.O.S. beacon!
- Female Rigellian: At last!
- Male Rigellian: I am sending the signal! Cross your tentacles!
- Male Rigellian: It is glorious! Our lights will be seen deep into the farthest reaches of the universe!
- Neighbor: That's quite the holiday display you've got on the ol' homestead.
- Male Rigellian: Yes... "Display"...
- Female Rigellian: Why have our brethren not arrived yet?
- Male Rigellian: Blazing barsoom! Look at that!
- Female Rigellian: Oh no! Every house on the street is lit up!
- Neighbor: In-diddly-deed! When we saw how nifty your place looked, everyone in town decided to do it as well!
- Grampa: Coincidentally, the alien spaceship took out Santa's entire fleet of reindeer when it collided with his sleigh just above the North Pole. That's why, today, Santa makes his deliveries with a magical Volkswagen Microbus! Hey! Where'd everyone go? Guess I'll just wait for the aliens to come get me. I hear Mars is lovely this time of year. [Sigh]
