If something can't be viewed through the lens of The Simpsons, I don't wanna know about it

That is an incredibly deep and thoughtful response, aether. Thank you.

In response to your question, it's probably Homer.

As the patriarch of a working class family, he represents the everyday struggles of the average American worker. From job insecurity to the difficulties of balancing work and family life, the show often poignantly depicts the economic pressures faced by families. Moreover, Homer is the ultimate protagonist and is a figure we can all relate to in some way, shape, or form, via his various passages of self discovery and episodes of tomfoolery.

the simpsons is like a cultural rosetta stone - it's decoded everything from quantum physics to postmodernism through the lens of a dysfunctional family in springfield. when homer explained chaos theory with that butterfly effect scene, he did more for public understanding than a semester of lectures. 

what's your favorite simpsons-explained concept?
