I was just thinking today how weird it is that in that really old episode
where Lisa does the grass-skirt fire-dance that you can see between the
grass fronds to her crotch.

I was criticised for mentioning this on the UK Simpsons newsgroup, but
there's a limited edition of the 'Too Hot For TV' video in the UK which
features a picture of OFF in the nude, and you can see Maggie's crotch.
She doesn't have a cunt, though.

You're talking about 7G08 (Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire). Yeah, Lisa's
just wearing this grass skirt and she slides down with her legs open... and
it's just... yellow. Nothing! I'm not a pervert, but who can ignore that?
And why wasn't it cut in syndication? Very odd.

What is odd is that OFF seem to have no genitalia.

Christ, I can't believe I'm posting on this thread, but...

I assumed Lisa was wearing a skin-tight yellow colored ("nude color") pair
of tights or some such. Similar to what ice-skaters wear. I really doubt
the animators/writers/whoever intended her to be wearing nothing but the
grass skirt..

Newsflash: lisa isn't a real person. she's a cartoon character.

Why do you expect cartoon characters to be anatomically correct?

There were apparently some 'Betty Boop' cartoons in the 30s/40s that were
very - ahem - detailed in some areas....... Before the censors took a
closer look.

Ah, yes. Thank you. You know, I think we could get close to matching the
economic output of some decent sized countries if we had a nickel for
everytime someone used this convenient little cop out.

>Why do you expect cartoon characters to be anatomically correct?

I don't. I merely offered a plausible theory as to why Miss
Simpson's privates were not shown when she finished her dance. It's not
because she's gender neutral, as was implied in the post I first
followed up on, but merely because she's wearing skin colored tights,
instead of just a grass skirt. It makes sense. A nice tidy explanation so
that this bothersome question won't have to keep people up at night
anymore!

Cheers!

Thinking of Lisa Simpson's crotch has kept me UP on more nights than I'd
like to admit.

There's also the part where Mr burns comes out of a cake in Smithers dream
and sings Happy Birthday. No wee willy winkie there. In the stonecutters
episode when Homer is naked and dragging the stone of triumph you would
expect to see his fat one when the leg closest to the camera is stretched
back and the other leg is forward.

Nah. Klasky Csupo was just too cheap to make things perfect. Just
liek Smithers isn't really black in Homer's Odyssey, that's really supposed to
be a FULL grass skirt. (Otherwise, it'd be more explicit than that. Of
course you know drooling Lisa fans probably have fun maintaining that we "did"
get to see her naughty bits.)

You know, I had a strange dream last night where, at the end of a brand
new episode of The Simpsons Bart actually flaunts his wee willie winker
when Homer strips him naked to spank him.

I know- all cartoon characters are the work of the imagination, and have
no basis in real life. Nothing wrong with assuming that they do, though-
I've often liked to believe that somewhere in the middle of America
there is a town called Springfield where OFF and all the other
characters I know and love reside.

(I forget from where I heard this, so it goes creditless... ) What's up
with Donald Duck? He spends all day walking around wearing a shirt with
no pants, but when he steps out of the bathtub, he wraps his towel
around his waist!

Of course, it's possible that Lisa was wearing a skintight yellow
leotard underneath the skirt, creating the illusion that she isn't
wearing anything underneath while not exposing anything.

At least K-C has plenty of money now, so, in the off chance that
Angelica starts dancing around in a grass skirt, there won't be any
confusion to whether she's wearing anything or not.

They made fun of this in a "Bloom County" comic strip... the gopher
character game out of a men's room, and said "No dice! Cartoon characters
aren't anatomically correct!" (I apologize for the crude language, but
that's what it said in the strip.)

and what about that all-time classic cartoon, 'What's Opera Doc?' When
'Siegfried' Fudd dances with 'Brunhilde' Bugs you can see up Bug's
skirt- is that white I see underneath his fur, or is it a pair of
panties???

In the late 70s a city in Finland decided to stop purchasing Donald Duck
comics for distribution, in favor of other publications. Then, rumors about
this spread, thus the idea that Donald was banned for going pantless.
Hmm. Odd that Mickey Mouse wears pants but no shirt, isn't it? Of course, the
Looney Tunes animals are almost always naked...
BTW, back to the Simpsons, this legend was spoofed in 4F15, when a law in
Springfield was found requiring ducks to wear pants.

I also remember back in the '70s (or early '80s) when Marvel Comics was
forced to have Howard the Duck wear pants. Apparently the folks over at
Disney thought he looked too much like Donald otherwise, which is odd
considering that Donald is white, whereas Howard was a light yellow.
Not to mention Howard's habit of smoking cigars and wearing clothes that
Donald would never wear.

[SNIP!]

And this isn't about OFF at all, but it's really weird. I once dreampt
that my family and I were painting an ornamental white picket fence
with a chainsaw, and a soapdish fell on my father's head, and we all
laughed.

Well, it's still better than the one where I was in the Wacky Shack,
and I had to keep going up elevators to get out (shades of
Wolfenstein), and then I wound up outside of Ms. Timmis's house (only
painted yellow).

> ... or did I?)

Like in that movie? Where this Matrix of people had to escape from the
Matrix or feality created by a computer Matrix...I think it was called
``The people who got out of reality.''

I wonder if this "You can see Lisa's crotch" bit is going to go into the FAQ,
if this trend continues.

Also, when you see Homer shirtless, does he have nipples?

Good question. I think so. You can certainly see Krusty's.
