“I paid my taxes over a year ago” is such a brilliant line
-
I love that Otto continues to wait on line after he finds out it’s NOT for Metallica.
-
Maude reminding Ned that the post office will be opening (not closing) is one of the funniest details. Like he has to be the absolute first person in for the year or he'll be late.
-
Ned not putting in the ink as a business expense because he personally enjoys the smell is just brilliant.
-
“Because I’m an idiot. Happy?” Best line ever.
-
Dr. Frink being able to feel math seems like a superpower in a hero for the Justice League’s D-tier squad
-
I love how even though he's as early as he could possibly be, he still RUNS to the postbox.
-
I must say that every so often, I revisit this video. There's something very calming and satisfying about watching Ned Flanders do his taxes properly and well in advance, and serves as a constant pleasant reminder for me not to procrastinate.
-
"If I dont hear you, its not illegal" catches me every time haha
-
Otto also filed his taxes early and mistakenly found himself at the post office while trying to enjoy his evening.
-
as a kid, I always thought flanders was lame, but as an adult I both envy and respect his attitude to things and work ethic. they hurt him so bad in the later seasons.
-
I love classic Ned's character because he wasn't JUST a figure of fun. Despite how ridiculous it looks for him to be doing taxes that early, they still do show that everyone else suffered by leaving it to the last minute. The contrast between him and Homer only works when he is actually an intelligent, upstanding citizen and not just the weird caricature he is now
-
That Flanders believes that his tax money goes to people who "just don't feel like working", but actually doesn't mind, tells you everything about his character.
-
Marge is awfully calm for someone who's watching her husband not realize his taxes werent done, and then committing tax fraud right in front of her
-
"Until you're willing to file jointly." Skinner thought about that for a moment.
-
"It's literally the 11th hour, 10 PM." I love how in classic Simpsons it was impossible to go more than 5 seconds without a joke. They were just on another level.
-
Flanders' diligence for taxes makes me feel interested
-
‘No, just mailing out death certificates for holiday related fatalities’ - one of the great underrated lines of the show.
-
I once memorized this entire episode for a final class project (we had to memorize a 20 minute speech, and I asked the teacher if it could be a script. She said yes, and I read the script of this episode every day for a week).
-
I love how Snake is in line to file his taxes. Like the one crime that he won't commit is tax evasion lol!
