I'm too lazy to type anything about me. Read my blog and I'm sure you'll eventually learn a few things.

"The Duff Beer-amid contains so much aluminum it would take five men to lift it. Twenty-two immigrant laborers died during its construction."

Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#37 Selma’s Choice
Season 4, Episode 13 (Guide from the Simpsons Archive)

After an aunt dies, Selma starts to feel her biological clock ticking. She tries a dating service, looks into artificial insemination, and more, but all of her searching is fruitless. When Homer becomes too ill to take Bart and Lisa on a planned trip to Duff Gardens theme park (and Marge is occupied with taking care of him), Selma takes them there herself. Their rambunctious behavior leads to something of a change in mind for Selma, and she settles for a pet iguana at show’s end. Memorable moments include the Duff Gardens commercials, the legend of the dog-faced woman, Homer’s dignity at the Buzzing Sign Diner, the counting game, the name of the funeral home, the first eulogy, Homer driven to tears at the funeral, Bart’s trick on Lisa, Lionel Hutz, fast-forwarding, potato chips, Maggie on the act break, Low Expectations Dating Service, “Back to the Loch with you, Nessie,” the fortune teller, the bag boy, Hans Moleman, Lisa knowing more about artificial insemination than Homer, the cover of the brochure (which pictures, among other people, Troy McClure, who becomes her significant other in a later episode), the ham radio, the sandwich, “Duff Gardens, Hurrah!”, the beeramid, rappin’ Abe Lincoln, Yentl, the complaint line, the small world parody, Lisa drinking the water and her ensuing delirium, The Erotic Adventures of Hercules (which they have Troy McClure mention his appearance in in another episode as well), pimply teens, Surly and the other Duff characters, the non-doctor, Homer explaining the toga, and Selma singing to Jub Jub.
