our latest videos for this list we’re
looking at all the red flags from
Springfield’s laziest safety inspector
that should have Marge taking the kids
and heading for the door
we’ll only be considering cannon
episodes so no treehouse of horror
specials number 10 he’s incredibly lazy
sure Homer has a job but he phones it in
at home he pigs out on the couch rather
than helping with the chores and only
takes an interest in his own children
with the most vigorous prompting even on
the occasions that Marge has a full-time
job
Homer still expects her to do 100
percent of the home care geez Marge
already has three kids to raise and
apparently her husband as well it’s no
wonder she has a mental breakdown back
in season three you’ve been napping on
your marriage Homer time to wake up and
smell the donuts number nine
he takes Marge for granted Homer is all
about number one and constantly
disregards Marge’s feelings breaks up
families it turns wives against husbands
he’s skeptical when she needs a
therapist to overcome her fear of flying
in spies on her session when she seeks
out professional help on another
occasion without telling him she has
crossed a line how did you find out
hidden camera when he learns that he’s
driving her up the wall rather than
becoming a better husband he’s angry
that she kept her session secret while
he eventually comes to terms with the
fact it’s only because he learns that
the therapy acts as a reset button
allowing her to endure his shenanigans
for the rest of the week number eight
he’s a terrible role model homers
misbehavior
isn’t lost on the kids Bart acts out
daily we’re Belling at home and at
school
and Lisa is basically a walking case of
daddy issues compelled to seek paternal
guidance from outside sources even mr.
burns the children never see home are
having to face real consequences for his
antics or what he puts march through
which can’t exactly be a good life
lesson you tried your best and you
failed miserably the lesson is never try
maybe Homer should be the one in
detention a hundred lines of I will be a
better role model couldn’t hurt french
fries years ago until then it’s yet
another reason for Marge to pack ur bags
number seven he doesn’t respect her in
flashbacks we see that Marge was once a
bright young woman with varied interests
in language arts and social justice
after meeting Homer she falls for his
doofy charm and gets knocked up at a
young age and the rest of course is
history when she does have an interest
like painting being part of a play or
singing Homer is either oblivious or
resentful even when she becomes a cop he
refused to take her seriously not here
she may have made the most of their
marriage but it’s clear the whole thing
might have been a terrible mistake
you’re an artist Marge you know that
pencils have erasers for a reason number
six infidelity while Marge has the
occasional crush and is tempted from
time to time by other men homer crosses
the line on more than one occasion he’s
openly flirted with other women cavorted
with an exotic dancer and seriously
toyed with the idea of an affair right
up to the point of inviting another
woman into his hotel room although to
his credit he did look pretty miserable
about it worst of all however he once
got so drunk in Vegas that he blacked
out and married someone else
No dead that’s right straight-up bigamy
and no Homer just cuz goody two-shoes
Ned Flanders did it too does not make it
all right number five he’s selfish and
reckless
even when buying a gift for Marge Homer
fan of impractical outlandish schemes
he’s willing to drop everything both
work and family responsibilities to
follow them through until he gets bored
and leaves the mess for someone else to
clean up he’s extremely dependent on
Marge who’s had to sacrifice her own
ambitions to take care of him
marge is a generous patient woman and
Homer takes full advantage at every
opportunity all she needed was for that
big slob to show her some respect
she ought to hit him where it hurts and
withhold porkchop’s until he can learn
how to think of others
listen if it’ll make you feel any better
I’ll put this safety on whoops guess it
was already on number four he’s
emotionally manipulative Marge is so
sweet and nurturing that she deserves
the same care and attention but she
usually only gets it after Homer has to
make amends for messing up so you’re
smart help me trick her into taking me
back grand gestures are nice but not
when they’re just a way to cover your
beer and donut inspired but parceling
out the consideration and affection
someone craves to make up for your own
wrongdoings is pretty messed up I wanted
to surprise you with a kicky summer –
how many husbands would do that for
their way it’s never about Marge and
what she actually needs it’s all about
getting Homer out of a jam and
convincing her for another week that
he’s worth the trouble
number three he breaks the law homers
antics are for the most part Harebrained
Schemes that while stressful for Marge
are at least within the bounds of law
and order but from time to time he leaps
right over that line into a life of
crime from rum-running to drunk driving
to vigilantism to child abuse to bail
jumping Homer has a rap sheet nearly as
long as the series worst of all he
sometimes involves his kids making them
accomplices and endangering their lives
Marge oughta raise the bar the next time
he’s fixing to get thrown behind bars
that way the next cake she
Jake’s won’t have to have a nail file
inside it number two he has a love
affair with beer many people enjoy a
drink or two after a long day of work
but homers intake is well above the
reasonable consumption level you’re
drinking at 8 o’clock in the morning
whether he’s drinking away his paycheck
at Moe’s getting wasted on the couch or
making a public spectacle of himself
it’s clear that Homer has a problem his
alcoholism frequently threatens not only
his safety but that of his family in one
episode Marge even ends up in rehab
because he framed her for his drunk
driving accident I can’t believe I drove
drunk but you do believe it right if
there is no changing Homer perhaps it’s
Marge who needs the intervention because
she’s hooked on a rummy dummy she might
just have to quit number one he’s an
awful dad Homer certainly has his
moments do it for her still gets us
tearing up like we’ve had one too many
flaming Moe’s but overall Homer is a
terrible father he strangles Bart on the
regular and even forgets at times that
he exists and his son isn’t alone in the
neglect Homer mocks Lisa frequently and
whenever she makes pointed social or
political comments tells her to go to
her room in effect punishing her for
being outspoken mom probably she may be
unpopular but it’s the law and we still
go yeah that’s for Maggie half the time
he can’t even remember her name
Homer is more of a weekend kind of dad
anyway might as well make it official
cuz she was fighting my dog and stealing
my poison now give her back so I can
take her home to my rat infested house
