The Simpsons Episode 192 - "Das Bus"

[Old Pink]

Hi there,

Has anyone seen The Simpsons (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Simpsons) episode 192 named "Das Bus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Bus)", which is a parody of Lord of the Flies?

I found it quite amusing when Bill Gates "bought out" Homer Simpson's internet company "Compuglobalhypermeganet" by using two thugs to destroy his chances of success.

Marge: Bill Gates is here.
Homer: Bill Gates? Billionaire computer nerd, Bill Gates? Oh, my god... oh, my god... Get out of sight, Marge. I don't want this to look like a two-bit operation.
Marge: (grumbles)
Bill Gates: Mr. Simpson?
Homer: You don't look so rich.
Bill Gates: Don't let the haircut fool you. I'm exceedingly wealthy.
Homer: [quietly] Get a load of the bowl-job, Marge!
Bill Gates: Your Internet ad was brought to my attention, but I can't figure out what, if anything, Compuglobalhypermeganet does, so rather than risk competing with you, I've decided simply to buy you out.
Homer: I reluctantly accept your proposal!
Bill Gates: Well everyone always does. Buy 'em out, boys!
Bill Gates' lackeys trash the room
Homer: Hey, what the hell's going on!
Bill Gates: Oh, I didn't get rich by writing a lot of checks! [insane laughter]Brought to mind the current Microsoft/SUSE situation... :rolleyes:

If you haven't seen it, try finding a stream/torrent of it, it's worth it just for the laugh at Bill Gate's attitude.

I have some clips from that show my hard drive. Give me a little while and I'll have them uploaded onto my FileFront account.

Brilliant thanks! :D

The clips are all from the same episode, the last one is the quoted text in the original post. Sorry, but I only have them in Quicktime format.

this would also be the episode which brought us such classic lines as:

"it tastes like burning"
"do you want to be like the real UN, or just sit around and bicker"
"well your _____ looks kinda crappy.....kinda real crappy"

:-( those apple quick time moves crashed my computer, twice.

Kaffien will play the sound then kill the kernel.
VLC will play the video but not the sound
mplayer worked fine

I didn't record them myself. I got them (about 270 of them) from http://centerclick.org/videos/. Copied them to a CD incase anything ever happened to the website, which appears to not host the videos anymore.

Dead link :-(

Main site says site shut down

[Dr. Nick]

Nooooooooooo :(

Well it did have the full episodes in flash for those that missed it, sort of weird that it gets shut down after i posted the link, its been around for a long time and has been posted around over the Internet, apparently the MPAA is upset with them even though they don't host any actual content

[GStubbs43]

I don't think it was actually shut down, on the 20th it said:

We are currently having a few issues with our datacenter. We will be moving to a new one within the next 24 hours.
Please keep an eye for future updates on this subject.
We're sorry for the mess. Please enjoy the site.

And it now says:

This web site will be working within 10 minutes.

Hopefully it'll be back up for those of you who didn't see it!

Nope!!!

[GStubbs43]

It should be up soon enough... but no need to wait! I found http://www.yourtvlinks.com/

Whoa... You've just resurrected a thread whose posters likely had just upgraded to the brand-new Edgy Eft.
