Bill Wisth is picketing Chuck's Place for not letting him eat as much fish as he could
A U.S. man is protesting a restaurant because the so-called all-you-can-eat special didn't allow him to truly eat all that he could.
Bill Wisth went to Chuck's Place in Thiensville, Wisconsin for their all-you-can-eat fish fry Friday night special, but the restaurant wouldn't serve him more than 12 pieces of fish.http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/dail...sin-restaurant-fails-live-name-193204791.html

Hehehehe...
 
Not really political but since it is here, I might as well indulge in sharing the quotes from what I think is one of the best scenes in Simpsons history.

--------

Hutz: 'Now, Mrs Simpson, tell the court in your own words what happened after you and your husband were ejected from the restaurant'

Marge: 'We... pretty much went straight home'.

Hutz: 'Mrs Simpson, may I remind you that you are under oath?'

Marge: 'We drove around until three in the morning looking for another open all-you-can-eat seafood restaurant'

Hutz: 'And when you couldn't find one'

Marge: 'We went fishing *bursts into tears, hands on face*'

Hutz: 'Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, do these sound like the actions of a man who had ALL he could eat?'
 
That's awesome, but how did you know which frame to go to?

There's literally hundreds and they all just have basic extension names (ie no descriptions).

It's essentially a screen grab every second, from every episode, so you gotta know the episodes well enough to know where you're up to (And where abouts the image you're after is in in the episode).

Maybe I've just dedicated way too much of my brainpower towards remembering Simpson episodes, but it generally doesn't take long to find what you're after. :)

(And if you're really stuck, you can google up a transcript of the episode in question to chase down what happens around it. )

Homer: Now what is a wedding? Well, Webster's dictionary describes a wedding as: the process of removing weeds from one's garden.

Homer: Somebody had to take the babysitter home, then I noticed she was sitting on / her / sweet can... / so I grabbed / her / sweet can... / Ohhhh, just thinking about / her / can... / I just wish I had / her / sweet, sweet / s/s/sweet can...Godfrey Jones: So, Mr. Simpson, you admit you grabbed her can. What do you have to say in your defense? [scene shows a still video shot of Homer distorted] Mr. Simpson, your silence will only incriminate you further. [the frozen image of Homer begins to slowly zoom in] No, Mr. Simpson, don't take your anger out on me! Get back! Get back! M-Mr. Simpson, noooo! [the screen freezes on the screaming Godfrey]TV Announcer: Dramatization: may not have happened
 
It's not the Simpsons, but sums up pretty well the state of conservative thought re the environment.

 

Edna: Our demands are simple: a small cost-of-
living increase and some better equipment and supplies for
your children.
Audience: Yeah! Give it to them! etc.

Skinner: Yeah, in a dream world. We have a very tight budget; to do
what she's asking, we'd have to raise taxes.
Audience: Raise taxes? They're too high as they are. Taxes are bad.
etc.
Edna: It's your children's future.
Audience: That's right. Children are important. etc.
Skinner: It'll cost you.
Audience: No to taxes. My God, they're going to raise taxes. etc.
Edna: C'mon!
Audience: She makes a good case. Good point. etc.
Skinner: [rubs his fingertips together]
Audience: More taxes? The finger thing means the taxes. etc.
Ned: Well, I guess this is a case where we'll have to agree to
disagree.
Skinner: I don't agree to that.
Edna: Neither do I!
 
Zapp Brannigan: Don't blame yourself, Kif. We were doomed from the start. I guess all that remains now is for the captain to go down with the ship.
Kif: That's surprisingly noble of you, sir.
Zapp Brannigan: No, it's noble of you, Kif. As of now, you're in command. Congratulations, Captain.

Barnett:
Ah, not a shark in sight. The shark patrol must be working like a charm.
Green: That's specious reasoning Colin.
Barnett: Why thank you.
Green: By your logic, I could claim this rock keeps tigers away.
Barnett: Oh, how does it work?
Green: It doesn't work... It's just a stupid rock, but I don't see any tigers around here do you?
Barnett: I want to buy your rock.

Pensioner: Don't you have a robust health budget?

Dutton: We used to, but we gave it up for 58 F-35 fighter jets and Paid-Parental Leave.
Pensioner: D'oh!
Dutton: Don't worry. Australia's health care system is second only to Japan, Canada, Sweden, Great Britain, well, all of Europe, but you can thank your lucky stars we don't live in Paraguay!
