How to Read the Saturday Comics: With Homer Simpson/Quotes
Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
- Homer: This kind of panel is called an "inset"!
- Homer: Okay, first, put on your reading glasses. That's better, four-eyes! Heh, heh!
- Homer: Every week, we get huge sacks of mail just like this. "Dear Simpsons, I don't know how to read the Saturday strips! Help!" Pffft! Guy sounds like a real bonehead! It's easy! Just read, you know, the words and stuff. In these floaty things near my head. Now go to the bottom left panel. Go now!
- Homer: Hmmmph. Took you long enough! This camera angle is called a medium shot, by the way!
- Homer: ...and this is called a "close-up". Owww! Back off! Back off!
- Homer: These white spaces between the panels are called "gutters". They usually mean time has passed!
- Homer: Sometimes the artist gets bored and takes liberties with the script. Hey! I had a beer here a minute ago! Oh, forget it. I'm gonna go watch TV!
- Homer: Remember, TV is your friend! Watch some today!
