@HomerJSimpson's Tweets Explained

The food pyramid was retired by the USDA in June, 2011

Doctor Hibbert opts not to let hospital staff or a professional collection agency handle his office’s unpaid bills, preferring instead to harass his patients himself.

Homer has taken dancing lessons from a fictional robot that appears on screen before and after FOX NFL broadcasts go to commercials. Presumably they are not as much “dancing lessons” as “touchdown celebration lessons”, since they conclude with a football spike. Unable to find a football in a house that a ten year old boy who has played Pee Wee football lives in, Homer demonstrates his new skills with the the most football-like item he can find, his wife’s purse. He spikes the purse, causing Marge to become angry, but not angry enough to prevent him from doing this repeatedly. 

Ironically, due to football on another network, last nights Simpsons broadcast was tied as the second lowest rating in the show’s history.

A married father of three with a full time job is competing with a barn animal for refuse. And lest you wonder, it was the “local” petting zoo, not a petting zoo in a far-off land. 

At least when Homer missed out on college to fight a dog for a ham, the food he was after was actually desirable.

Evidently, the bald Homer Simpson has a regular barber. Were this superfluous barber actually Zorro, the side hairs Homer is remarking upon would resemble “N”s and not “M”s, since that is what a “Z” on its side looks like, so it is unlikely that the barber is in fact the fictional film character Zorro.

Bart admitted in the very first episode of The Simpsons that he does not believe in Santa, and in fact knows that Homer is Santa. Who he “secretly” asked for a gun is therefore difficult to determine; logic dictates that if Homer “found out” about it, he was not asked himself, and therefore the only other person Bart may have asked is his mother, who would not buy him a gun.

Homer himself dressed as a Mall Santa in the very same first episode and is an adult, so it is hard to believe that he truly thinks Santa is going to come down the chimney to give his ten year old son a gun. Therefore the chimney farting is likely just meant to provide the reader with a humorous mental image.

Homer is offering his followers tips for staying young, for some reason. The first two tips are good advice, but the third one is a wacky scenario involving wizards that does not fit with a single one of the admittedly loose rules that have governed the decidedly non-magical goings-on in Springfield for the past 22 years.

“Modern” cars have had the ability to turn off airbags for fourteen years at this point, but Homer is implying that airbags themselves beg to be disabled, presumably because he is overweight and a man of his size crashing into them would be less enjoyable for the airbag than a healthy person.

For some reason, this begging does not occur with driver’s side airbags.
