Talk:The Monkey Suit

Untitled
What is the name of the song which was playing during the "Myth of Creation" scene at the museum?

wtf
family guy and simpsons episodes on the same day on evolution, who stole it first? -probably Family Guy, since they still form the Simpsons all the time.

Or, more likely, it was a coincedence, since cartoons are made way, WAY in advance of their first airing, and I doubt that the people behind Family Guy and the Simpsons meet up and swap notes or anything. Given that it's a 'hot topic', it doesn't seem too odd to say that neither stole it. What I want to know is why no-one stopped to point out that evolution does NOT state that we descended from apes - more cousins than descendents. 80.6.99.157 20:25, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

actually we are apes, and primates and mammals so :P —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.39.182.122 (talk) 21:49, 21 December 2009 (UTC)

The Nelson mask gags
I didn't get those at all. I think it should be explained in the article, under Cultural References, as I presume it's a reference to SOMETHING.


 * Yeah, a bad joke - Zone46 22:20, 16 May 2006 (UTC)


 * @Zone46 I wondered if it was a reference to Mission Impossible III, where latex masks are used a lot but the dates don't work, unless the writers knew in advance what the film was going to do. 2A0A:EF40:1024:4901:C157:A265:A0B4:CC26 (talk) 09:32, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

It must be a cultural reference, I mean they must have a good reason for those gags, don't they?Atomic45 09:02, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm interested too! What's this all about? I've seen something like Nelson's acting before, an old movie maybe? I'm also familiar with the following puzzle image transition, and I'm sure it's not from Powerpoint :P InforGatherer (talk) 23:09, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Grampa's List
It says Grampa's list has two things crossed off, and gives those, but doesn't give the other seven. Can someone add them so that the list of complete? JQF 14:00, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

We can't say what they were becuase they were not shown at all on screen. It shows one, then pans down to the second one, that is it. We know there are nine though because the paper is folded nine times, if you get what i mean, and each section has one "To Do" thing on.Davie4264 16:12, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Why is Ned's exclamation in crazy huge writing? Somebody correct that, s.v.p

Links
The external links don't seem to be very appropriate. The first one is a very short summary of the episode, while the second one ("Answers in Genesis") is a longer summary, but features no serious commentary and thus does not merit to be linked to (I cannot help but feel the link has been included only to get more traffic). --Tail 09:09, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Bart's first kiss
Should it be mentioned somewhere that Bart's kiss with the..... gyspy girl or whatever is not in fact his first kiss? He previously kissed Jessica Lovejoy, Gina the juvie and Ruth Powers' daughter (Whose name escapes me).203.53.167.180 10:32, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

If you can reference it, put it in. The Simpsons is well known for its continuity errors, though. Annihilatron (talk) 15:20, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Little Moe Szyslak
We never talk about Little Moe Szylak. Sure he looks, sounds, and acts exactly like Moe, but the combination of consideration and logic definatley leaves him a differant person. He deserves recondnition. SoundPound500000 5:16 p.m. —Preceding comment was added at 23:20, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

I wonder if there's more to Little Moe (e.g. he actually is Moe's son, however that may have come about) or if it is just one of the crazy Simpsons' joke with no "real" reason or logic behind it. -78.51.71.200 (talk) 22:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

He's Moe's Nephew.

Blackmail of Skinner
What are they blackmailing him with? What is the document Lovejoy is threatening to burn? -78.51.71.200 (talk) 22:30, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

He leased his car from Christian Auto; They were threatening to burn his lease (Implied). Annihilatron (talk) 15:20, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Inherit the Wind
Okay, two points to add to this article, which I'm not sure where to put in. First is the obvious parody of Inherit the Wind, which in turn is a dramatisisation of the Scopes Monkey Trial. Also, in an older episode of the Simpsons, Judge Schneider ruled that Science and Religion must always stay 500 yards apart, which could be listed as some sort of remark. Where would I put this information? --Mattgcn (talk) 23:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

other more practical refferences
Monkey suit more commonly refers to one of several types of garb. one of the oldest is as a reference to a tuxedo or any man's dress suit. it also may refer to a mess jacket worn by military personel. some other more recent meanings are for any all black subversive clothing or coveralls worn by mechanics(grease monkeys) or any daily worn uniform for work. etymology: the jackets worn by organ grinder monkeys 24.69.19.145 (talk) 19:39, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
