I can't help but notice all the Simpsons references at GG&J's? I am a fucking dork, but hey check out all this Simpsons shit I have.

Lol,

Nice collection Kristian
Greenie has a nice one too. He has posted a link to the picture of it but I'm sure he will do it again :)

This is my collection about 18 months ago:

I have much more now, but I ran out of room :D

This has always been one of my all time favorite exchanges between characters on the Simpsons--and today is the perfect day for it!

Saw on CNN today the voices all went on strike.

They want a raise from $125k per show to $350k

If this is a joke, it's not my joke, I did really see it on CNN.

People in the News: 'Simpsons' voices hold out for more

Bart and Homer Simpson will grab any excuse to shirk, but their alter egos have a more weighty reason: money. Dan Castellaneta (Homer), Nancy Cartwright (Bart) and four other actors who voice the iconic characters are boycotting script readings for the upcoming 16th season of "The Simpsons."
Their three-year contracts ran out a few months ago. Daily Variety says each actor wants $360,000 an episode (close to $8 million for the season) -- nearly three times their current pay. In 1998 they were getting $30,000 per episode.

That's not a joke :(

They deserve it. Fox has made obscene amounts of money from marketing the show, and the voice actors were deemed replaceable (and compensated thusly) for a long time. I hope they get whatever they want--the show can't go on too much longer (besides, aren't we ready for that damn Simpsons movie Matt Groening keeps mentioning?).

at least i know i am not the only weirdo, lol

Ya I heard the same thing on the news.

They killed off Flanders wife because she wanted something like $1,000 more a show. She flew in from Denver every week to do. Not sure how this will play if they killed her off for asking.

Also this is the longest running cartoon show next to the flintstones, ran something like 5-8 years in prime time television.

Big difference from RAY ROMANO
The new deal will pay Romano about $1.7 million (GBP1.13 million) per episode - up from his current salary of roughly $800,000 (GBP533,300) per episode.

well i think they deserve it they made enough $ off of it, not even including endorsements
