1. "The Dude" from The Big Lebowski featured in both Powerpuff Girls and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends

1. Willy Wonka is a cannibalistic murderer.

Granted: Wonka is a total creep, if not a psychopath. But some on the internet think that in the world of Wonka's chocolate factory, a secret candy recipe + shockingly easy child injury and possible death (i.e. the Augustus Gloop-sucking tube) = kid-candy. Wouldn't that make it taste a bit funky? Thick? Stringy? Regardless, the argument loses some credibility around the point this FanTheories Wiki editor says he's "not trying to be racist here [about Oompa Loompas], but cannibalism in Africa isn't the rarest of things." Sounds to me like he's just using his pure, bigoted imagination.

Three quick notes before we begin:

1) None of this is actual criticism; it's nerdy, "Genius At Work"-shirted nitpicking purely so we Simpsons-obsessives can talk about The Simpsons. Think of it like a Bible Study, but with more important source material.

2) The examples here are confined to seasons 2-10.

3) This list doesn't include out-of-character moments where the out-of-characterness is the joke itself, like when Homer puts on glasses and instantly recites the Pythagorean Theorem. This is a very important distinction (in a very important internet list).

That said, onto the weird moments in the best thing ever made!

They're matching up pretty well.

Move over, Ryan Gosling and Will Sasso, the Vine throne belongs to BRUCE D.
