 *When the [[Springfield Police Department|Springfield Police]] bust Bart's stand and confiscate his T-shirts, [[Chief Wiggum]] takes one that reads "Proud Nubian Princess". The term means a good-looking sexy black woman with an excellent figure. This makes Wiggum's choice ironic and funny on multiple levels, as he is neither female nor black, and can hardly be considered as having a good figure.
