    This is so clever and I love it, but for pedantry’s sake, he was tangy and brown in s1e3 and yellow by s1e4.

    Wikipedia says both that it was an error by a colorist and that a decision was made that gay and black was a bit too much for a sycophantic character.

      You forgot to lick the cheese dust off your fingers first.

          Oh hmm, are downvotes not shared between lemmy and kbin? I don’t see any.

            I have an account on Kbin and no, you don’t usually see downvotes. But I don’t see that as a bad thing actually. Your comments in this thread didn’t get any downvote, by the way.

              To be more specific, kbin doesn’t federate downvotes, or at least doesn’t import downvotes from outside an instance. Not sure if it sends any downvotes generated here back out, but any downvotes you see here are from other kbin.social users

              you don’t usually see downvotes … didn’t get any downvote

              A bummer on both accounts. Thanks for the info!

            Yeah it’s unexpe Ted until you learn about it. Lemmy doesn’t share votes between instances.

              Maybe a bunch of irate tankie bots? Heck I dunno. It’s obviously just a silly riff on Comic Book Guy and not even spicy at that. But now (-77) there’s apparently 77 people who “disagree” with it?

              Again, and not out of insecurity (thanks null) but just out of amusement that so many would care - lol. They’re probalby looking for VRYSRSSimpsonsshitposting.

                It’s not obvious that it’s a riff on Comic Book Guy and just comes off as rude. Was there ever a scene where he had cheese dust on his fingers?

                  Wow, seriously? He’s - always eating junk food and correcting people? That’s not - you’re saying 77 denizens of SIMPSONSshitposting are unaware of these characteristics of Comic Book Guy?

                  Goddamn. Ok.

            I dunno, it just shows “-45” on my cheese dust joke.

            ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

              That’s a lot of folks presuming bad faith. I’ve barely seen -5 on my spiciest takes.

      The “real deal” with Waylon Smithers is that he’s Mr. Burns’ assistant. He’s in his early 40’s, is unmarried, and currently resides in Springfield
