| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00  | Homer Simpson's Phrase in Dictionary OXFORD, England (AP) - Homer Simpson with an English accent? Don't laugh - the beer-guzzling cartoon dad has hit the literary big-time. His favorite phrase has made it into the erudite Oxford English Dictionary. The OED's online edition defines Homer's trademark ``doh!'' - usually accompanied by a Simpsonesque slap to the forehead - as ``expressing frustration at the realization that things have turned out badly or not as planned or that one has just said or done something foolish. Also implying that another person has said or done something foolish.'' It's one of 1,250 new or revised entries published Thursday on the OED Web site. They'll all be added to the next edition of the print dictionary, but its publication is years away. I think this is funny as hell that a word like Doh is now an actual English word. Sucks to be the english teachers in high school and college who will now have to accept that in the students' papers :) Yea i be taking that zoloff, but thaz jus keepin me from killin y'all. I have come here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum. :) This message was edited by Cluster F on 6-15-01 @ 10:31 AM | ||||

You could say that Homer Simpson is fictional incarnation of the greatest living man, or that he represents your opinion of the perfect man, but you can not say that he is the greatest living man.

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | The one thing about this entry in the dictionary that bothers me a little bit, is that everytime I've seen the word used in print by Homer, it's written as "D'oh!" Those crazy English, bastardizing their own language by removing punctuation! How dare they! Apostrophes are people too! Adopted by Rone on 6/6/01 | ||||

| O&A Board Veteran Registered: Sep. 00 | Also on the Simpsons Front- DVDs coming SEptember 25th here's the scoop Fox sets ``Simpsons'' for DVD boxed set By Scott Hettrick HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - ``The Simpsons (news - Y! TV)'' are coming to DVD. On Sept. 25, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment will release an elaborate boxed set of the first season of the 10-year-old animated hit that is TV's longest-running current comedy series. A follow-up set of the second season may be released in time for the holidays, with two more sets being released each year thereafter, according to Peter Staddon, Fox Home Entertainment senior vice president of marketing. With only 13 episodes in the first season, the first three-disc set will be fleshed out with loads of extra material, including the original shorts that debuted on ``The Tracey Ullman Show'' and a never-before-seen lost episode. Unlike the first three seasons of ``The X-Files (news - Y! TV)'' that each take up seven discs and are priced at $149 (seasons four and five are in the works), ``The Simpsons Season 1'' will be priced at $39.98. But the price and number of discs will go up for subsequent seasons that each had 26 or more episodes. Creatively, producers are experimenting with innovative features to include in future boxed sets. Staddon said that one idea is to produce retrospective programs featuring highlights of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie or other selected characters from the show. But the first boxed set will include seven foreign-language clips, showing, for instance, Homer and Bart as dubbed in Japanese. Also included will be Albert Brooks outtakes, a BBC special called ``America's First Family'' and an ABC News Special Report on the Bart Simpson T-shirt controversy. Other extras include original scripts, commentary for each episode, early sketches, magazine covers and stills. The narrator in Fight Club is the man we will be, Patrick Bateman in American Psycho is the man we want to be Eliza Dushku- Hotter Than Britney | ||||
