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

"It's time for the church picnic." "What? They had a picnic last week." "No, they didn't! You just brought a bucket of chicken to church!"

Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#38 King of the Hill
Season 9, Episode 23 (Guide from the Simpsons Archive)

After a church picnic shows Homer to be woefully out of shape, he vows to get fit. He finds a new health food, the PowerSauce bar, and starts eating exclusively it. Combined with his new workout regime, he's stronger and fitter than ever before. After PowerSauce's celebrity spokesman, Ranier Wolfcastle, declines to climb the tallest mountain in Springfield as a publicity stunt, Bart volunteers Homer to do it. Homer is making good progress, but when he realizes the sherpas that are guiding him are also carrying him further up the mountain each night while he sleeps, he fires them and decides to continue solo. He reaches a plateau, and realizes he can go no further. Planting his flag there causes the portion of the mountain above the plateau to crumble and fall, though, which puts Homer at the new summit. Memorable moments include the McBain movie and the family conversation involving such, competing picnics, parking, tag, Reverend Lovejoy (parts one and two), egging Homer (and the fact that it was encouraged by his own teammate), Marge's lack of belief in Homer, letting the cat in on the secret, dragging Homer, late-night shopping, all-night gym, initial workout attempts, Homer reveals his newfound strength to his family, eating food in bar form, recruiting a mountain climber, Grandpa's tale, carrying Homer, sherpas going home, hallucination, finding Abe's climbing partner, the mountain comes tumbling down, and Homer's sled.
