The Simpsons



An American cartoon about a family of yellow people, the Simpsons, who live in Springfield, America. The show follows the family through their day-to-day lives and how they interact with their neighbors, friends, family, coworkers, and other fellow Springfielders. Unlike other family-centered sitcoms at the time, The Simpsons featured a blatantly flawed cast led by Homer, the man of the house, and Marge Simpson, the wife of the main man and mother of three children. The five family members struggle to peacefully live under the same roof and can often be seen yelling at, fighting, chasing each other around. Despite their commonplace infighting, the Simpsons can find a wholesome resolve to their hostilities and end a day on a light note.

On the air ever since 1989, The Simpsons has been called out for having Lost Its Magic many years ago.

Influence on real life and fiction
The Simpsons has been noted for being one of the most important TV shows in American history, and some even say the world. It's affected culture, lifestyles, and even the English lexicon. On the negative side, it has also been used as a reference mark for comparison of another franchise's (or even human being's) age as The Simpsons has been active for over three decades.

Internet presence
Despite The Simpsons not pushing out any recent episodes that they would consider worth meming, Internet people have still found new ways to meme old episodes. Steamed Hams is a very good example of an old Simpsons episode being memed as it lived for much longer than most people would have expected. This is, of course, because of YouTube who wouldn't leave the poor scene alone until some time in mid-late 2018.

The Simpsons and reference making
The Simpsons is very well known for its never-out-of-place Pop Culture References and, being the longest-airing primetime TV show in American history, had references made to it in turn. The Simpsons is so obsessed with references, even whole episodes had their titles be references to TV shows, movies, books, albums, and more. Some references are in-your-face obvious, while others are subtle or hidden mostly from view yet still visible. Oddly enough, The Simpsons has barely ever made references to memes despite being memed by Internet people numerous times.

Homer Simpson (Homer Jay Simpson) (NN)
"Homer Simpson, the man of the Simpson home, is the husband of a loving wife and father of three. Although he may be inefficient, thoughtless, and downright stupid at times, Homer shows many moments of caring for others and going far for those he loves and what he believes is right."

Pro (Score 8)
Altruism: Because of his Stupidity, Homer can be self-centered and disregard others' thoughts and emotions. However, he also shows kindness and consideration towards his neighbors, especially when the current episode is coming to a close and needs to end happily. In "Homer's Odyssey" (S1E3), Homer grows a concern for the safety of the other Springfielders and demands more safety signs be put up around town, which later earns him his position as safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. In the episode "When Flanders Failed" (S3E3), Homer wishes on a chicken bone for Ned Flanders's new Leftorium shop to financially fail, but when his wish is granted and he sees how miserable his next-door neighbor has become, Homer makes his best effort to help Ned's business stay afloat by spreading the word about the new store for left-handers.

Athleticism-: Homer can be periodically seen trying his hand at a few sports, with bowling being his most frequented. His sport history includes the aforementioned bowling, softball, fishing, and boxing. Of course, had Homer played more active games, he wouldn't be as out of shape as he's known to be.

Familial Bond UP: Despite almost always being at odds with his only son Bart, Homer cares greatly for his family, especially his wife Marge. He puts what he wants aside to satisfy those close to him, even if it means sacrificing sleep or money. Although Homer can be a bit reluctant to knock a bad habit that is (potentially) harmful to or neglectful of his wife and children, once he realizes what he is doing is wrong, Homer ceases his hazardous actions soon after.

Fighting Spirit: Homer occasionally gets into fist fights with other people. These people range from his fellow Springfielders to ex-President George Bush to the Main of The Simpsons 's rival TV show, Peter Griffin. He has no problem with standing his ground if someone picks a fight with him although many of his fights end up being ties.

Friend Bond UP: Homer may have a small circle of friends he spends a significant amount of time with, but he rarely mistreats them outside of the show's jokes and occasions where he might not have any other choice. His best friend is Barney Gumble, a man Homer has been knowing since his college days and who he has been hanging out with regularly ever since.

Mastery of the Arts-: Periodically, Homer's musical skill can shine. When he was young, he was the lead of a band (Sadgasm) with Lenny, Carl, and Officer Lou and invented a genre of music known as grunge. He can also play a variety of instruments well like the guitar and piano. In "And Maggie Makes Three" (S6E13), Homer quits his job to achieve his dream of working at Barney's Bowlarama, and as he drives out of the power plant on one of the company's vehicles, he plays Mr. Burns's head like a bongo. As he passes Lenny and Carl, Lenny makes a comment on Homer's head-playing, saying he can get a good beat out of the old man's empty scalp.

Resistance+: Homer's resiliency has been put on display many times. Sometimes, he endures incoming attacks or painful conditions that would greatly injure or kill most other people such as being repeatedly shot in the stomach by a cannonundefined, falling into the same ravine twice, being lit on fire, or being attacked by multiple people at once. Outside of surviving exterior pain, Homer is able to walk off suffering multiple simultaneous heart attacks and deliberately ingesting barber's disinfectant, showing that his inner body is just as powerful as its outer counterpart.

Respect-: Homer is a moderately liked individual, having a fair number of good connections with those he lives around. As the show plays with how respected Homer and the rest of his family are, Homer's Respect- ranges between "respected by all his coworkers" to "the most hated man in town" throughout the episodes.

Vigor-: Homer's strength may vary from time to time, but when it begins to reach its peak, he can easily use a motorcycle as a sword in a duel with another man using a motorcycle sword or launch people through the air with punches.

Con (Score 10)
Animosity: There may not be many people Homer would say he truly hates, but this doesn't mean Homer is no stranger to the idea. His most recurrent enemy is Ned Flanders, a man Homer perceives as a smug "jerk" who lives an easier life for no good reason. This hatred for Ned has extended to the rest of his family, save for his wife, Maude Flanders, the one member Homer has nothing against. Homer's spite isn't exclusive to others outside his household. This is made very evident through his son Bart. The only male child of the Simpson family has worsened life for Homer, among other people, on multiple occasions, which his father has repaid with yelling at, chasing, and strangling the boy.

Bad Habit: Homer has a few notable negative habits, such as his repeated alcoholism and tendency to strangle Bart, which is considered child abuse. The episode "Love is a Many Strangled Thing" (S22E17) is all about Homer's history of strangling his son. He also often neglects his physical health by gorging himself on unhealthy food like donuts, one of his famed characteristics, and whatever fast food is available to him.

Emotional Fragility: Out of all the members of his family, Homer is the quickest to anger. He fails to keep his cool when either witnessing or being the victim of Bart's many monkeyshines, especially in times when he Crosses The Line. Homer usually raise his voice at people he thinks are acting wrongly and might threaten them if they don't leave him be in time.

Familial Bond DOWN: Homer accomplished what few other characters in fiction have been able to: manage to have two simultaneous conflicting UnTraits. It's possible to see him clearly care for his family while also entirely forgetting that his youngest daughter, Maggie, exists in the same episode. At times, Homer may count his children and say that he has two, only referring to Bart and Lisa and accidentally excluding Maggie from the family. This problem also makes itself apparent when Maggie is called by her legal name, Margaret, which results in Homer questioning who the speaking person is referring to. In his more flawed moments, Homer struggles with tending to his children and sets them aside in favor of TV or beer. While Bart isn't concerned about spending time with his old man, Lisa takes a harder emotional blow after Homer neglects an opportunity to show interest in her life.

Misfortune: As he is one of the leads of the show (with another considerable lead being Bart), Homer is no stranger to undesirable situations such as being lost in the forest or having his life be put on the line. But by using his Pro UnTraits, Homer may be able to find a way out of his many predicaments. In addition to being put in unfavorable positions, in the face of his bane, Ned Flanders, he is comparatively a less lucky man who loses where Flanders wins.

Sloth+: Homer's laziness becomes a problem for him and others on multiple occasions, namely on his job at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. As he is a Fatty, Homer can't be expected to perform physical tasks with as much willingness as required.

Stupidity: One of Homer's defining traits is his lack of smartness. He may be too much of an idiot to understand the simplest of concepts or foresee the consequences of his actions. However, in the episode "HOMЯ" (S12E9), it was revealed by an x-ray scan that Homer's stupidity was caused by his intelligence being limited by a crayon lodged in his brain. Should that crayon be removed, Homer's intelligence would be improved immenselyundefined. This has no effect on how Homer can be infuriatingly stupid and unable to see the flaws of his ways. He may blame people for faults he himself is currently guilty of or use somebody as a scapegoat to avoid punishment he clearly deserves. Although far from neglecting his children, Homer can also be too selfish to pay attention to Bart, Lisa, and especially little Maggie. The one who ends up suffering at the hands of Homer's Stupidity the most in his family is his wife Marge. She may find it too nerve-wrecking to go out with her ape of a husband in fear of one of his shenanigans ruining everything for her and the rest of the family. In more serious moments, Marge can feel ignored by Homer and his unwillingness to support her or pay attention to her personal endeavors like be the member of a play's cast.

Work Ethic DOWN+: As Homer's job at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant is safety inspector (formerly technical supervisor), he must have the maturity and responsibility to do his job to the best of his ability. However, his ability is very limited as he is much more commonly caught fooling or sleeping on the job than he is taking it seriously.

Marge Simpson (Margarine Jacqueline Simpson, neé Bouvier) (NG)
"Marge Simpson is the homemaking wife of Homer Simpson and mother of three children. At home, it's her job to counter her husband's antics and children's occasional messiness while also making an attempt to lead a life outside of the house at times."

Pro (Score 5.5)
Familial Bond UP+: Through her good relationships with each member of the Simpson family, Marge can fix many issues that arise from their behaviors, even if such issues involve her. In "The Cartridge Family" (S9E5), Homer refuses to give up using a gun he says is to protect the very people he was endangering, leading Marge to take it upon herself to relocate her children for their safety until her husband can get his act together. Of all her children, Marge's Familial Bond UP+ is possibly best seen with Maggie, her youngest daughter and child. Marge ensures she puts her best foot forward in nurturing and protecting the baby of the family, often being surprised and panicked if Maggie is in a disorderly or endangered state.

Fighting Spirit-: Marge is a very docile woman and would prefer a peaceful resolution to an issue over a violent one. However, on a couple of occasions (the episodes "The Strong Arms of the Ma" (S14E9) and "The Springfield Connection" (S6E23)), she has been shown to have a underlying aggressive side. When she realizes what leading a more violent life has done to her, Marge will revert to her passive ways by an episode's end.

High Spirits: Marge is a cheerful and optimistic individual, refusing to let a few mishaps take her down and make her feel miserable along with everyone else around her. Because of her normally warm personality, she can find it in her heart to show mercy to her husband after he acts out in an otherwise unforgivable show of selfishness or neglect.

Patience+: Marge is able to tolerate the otherwise maddening stress her family puts her through such as Homer's Stupidity and her two oldest children's Animosity, only failing to do so on a few separate occasions. Of all the members of the Simpson family, Marge is possibly the least likely to fly into a flurry on a whim.

Con (Score 2.5)
Allure: Marge's Allure, especially in earlier episodes of The Simpsons, becomes a bit of a problem for her on occasion. Men outside of Homer have a history of making attempts at hitting on, dating, and even almost marrying her.

Bad Habit-: Ever since "$pringfield" (S5E10), the episode in which Marge develops a gambling addiction, she has been cautious about situations in which she could fall into her old habit. In "The President Wore Pearls" (S15E3), Marge is shown nearly relapsing into her addiction at a game operated by Ralph.

Disdain-: The poor reputation Marge has with the whole of Springfield is represented only rarely, typically during moments where the entire town attends a meeting and when Marge speaks her mind. More times than not, they begin to get annoyed with Marge before she's given the chance to say anything when it's time for her to present an idea or express if she's for or against a notion. On a lesser scale, her family finds her nagging to be annoying and overbearing, although Marge claims that it's for their own good and to shape them into better individualsundefined.

Bart Simpson (Bartholomew JoJo Simpson) (CG)
"Famed for his hellraiser temperament, a remnant from the 90s' Attitude And Hellness Era, Bart Simpson is the only son of the three children in the Simpson family and is the oldest of them all. Whenever the mood strikes him, he pulls a prank on those around him, let it be a quick Crank Call to Moe the bartender (who always threatens to be a Bart ender at the end of these calls) or a somewhat uncharacteristically well-orchestrated trick consisting of multiple parts and superb timing. At the end of the day, Bart is able to show his humanity by putting aside his tomfoolery to do the right thing for the people he'd otherwise be unwilling to say he cares for."

Pro (Score 6)
Animal Bond UP: On top of having his true best friend be his dog, Bart is shown to care for the well-being of animals, as well as being liked by the animals he encounters. "Bart the Mother" (S10E3) is an episode all about Bart taking care of "bird eggs" that turn out to be lizard eggs out of guilt of accidentally killing a mother bird with a BB gun. In "Bart Gets an Elephant" (S5E17), Bart gets — what else — an elephant he names Stampy. Near the end of the episode, an ivory dealer attempts to take Stampy from Bart with hidden yet obvious intent to harvest the pachyderm's tusks. Bart tries to take Stampy to a place where he would be safe from the dealer, destroying Springfield in the process.

Athleticism: One of Bart's partially hidden talents is his ability to run, jump, and parkour for as long as he needs to. This is a skill that comes in use after he Done Goofed at the end of a misdoing and has to Run For It from anyone trying to punish him. Bart has played a few sports during the show's run, including football, soccer, and baseball.

Deception: Bart is able to trick other people through voice and outfit changes, typically done for pranks. An episode that centers around Bart's manipulative skills is "Radio Bart" (S3E13) in which Bart fools the whole town of Springfield into thinking he was a boy named Timmy O'Toole who got Stuck In A Well through using a radio.

Intelligence: Bart has a surprisingly high amount of intelligence for someone who seems to always get bad grades in schoolundefined. He was able to foil Sideshow Bob's genius plans whenever those plans were the plot of the episode by figuring out what the mastermind was scheming and how he planned to achieve is objectives. Bart's hidden leadership is what also exemplifies his more-hidden smarts, such as in the episodes "Kamp Krusty" (S4E1), "Das Bus" (S9E14), "Lemon of Troy" (S6E24), and "Bart the General" (S1E5), all episodes in which he acts as the leader of a group of children.

Fighting Spirit: Bart's combative and competitive sides have been put on display in multiple episodes. An example of one of these episodes is "Lisa on Ice" (S6E8) where Bart is put on a hockey team and excels as its offensive iceman, being able to compete with his sister after she becomes a goalie star on the opposing team.

Respect: Even though Bart's status in school may raise and lower without warning, he is often shown as a popular student whose monkeyshines can cause a burst of laughter to erupt from everybody in the room who doesn't happen to be significantly older than him. Bart's reputation among other kids is so great, he's even on the good side of one of the main school bullies, Nelson Muntz.

Con (Score 5.5)
Animosity: In earlier seasons, Bart is portrayed being in a classic Brother v Sister Rivalry with his older sister Lisa, constantly getting into arguments and attacking her for no reason other than it's his job to as a Hellraiser.

Bane of Existence+: Bart's never-ending bad behavior is what made him many people's worst nightmares, being referred to as a demon on multiple occasions. His late teacher Edna Krabappel, although never outright singling him out from the other children in her class, would often make it apparent that Bart is a far cry from her favorite student after he tormented the other children and staff of the school countless times.

Emotional Fragility: All it takes to displease Bart at times is to simply deny him what he wants or assign him an undesirable task. This may later result in a prank of great pain or embarrassment. Do no upset Bart.

Sloth-: Bart can be noticeably lazier than others. As he is not a Nerd, he avoids doing work in or from school, and since he is not a Workaholic, he also neglects doing work around the house. Bart constantly relies on whatever help his terrible reasons for not doing his schoolwork can offer, especially if that schoolwork means a test of some kind. He blames his sudden inability to be an active student on a sickness or injury, which may be enough to "trick" his teacher to excuse him from the work before him.

Vanity: Bart's sociopath-like behavior has led to others being hurt, both physically and emotionally, innumerable times, yet he has been shown ignoring the problems he causes for others more often than trying to help solve them.

Lisa Simpson (Lisa Marie Simpson) (CG)
"The oldest daughter of the three Simpson children, Lisa Simpson is also the smartest in her family. Her love of music (namely jazz), classic literature, and science is her greatest pride, but is also what isolate her from others in a way that she painfully can't ignore. At times, her intelligence can prove to be overbearing, but Lisa always finds a way to cope with her loneliness and get along with the people around her."

Pro (Score 3.5)
Allure-: Lisa has crushed more boys than boys have crushed her, but a recurring joke in the series of Milhouse's crush on Lisa and how she is disgusted by it. Lisa has a considerable record of relationships, including non-canonical ones. She has been portrayed as married to different men in future episodes and scenes, including Ralph Wiggum, Milhouse, and a British man she meets at a library.

Intelligence+: With an IQ of 159, Lisa is among the smartest people in town. Her superior intelligence outclasses everyone else's in her class and, in some cases, her school. In "Lisa Gets An 'A'" (S10E7), it was revealed that her perfect test score is what pushed the school's average GPA to minimum state standards to be eligible for a basic assistant grantundefined. In "They Saved Lisa's Brain" (S10E22), an episode all about Lisa's Intelligence+, she was considered for Mensa, a group of Springfield's brightest minds and where she felt like she truly fit in with her fellow intellects.

Mastery of the Arts: Lisa is a very skillful girl for someone her age. She is proficient with her main musical instrument, her saxophone, which she often plays for an opportunity to do so, when she's bored, when she feels down and needs to cheer herself up, or just because she wants to better her already excellent talent. Lisa's musical skills earned her a friend by the name of "Bleeding Gums" Murphy, a fellow sax player who specializes in the blues, in the episode "Moaning Lisa" (S1S6).

Con (Score 3)
Animosity: Like how a pair of siblings would be expected to be, Lisa is in a Brother v Sister Rivalry with her older brother Bart. Being the more mature one, she rarely starts their arguments, but she's apparently not mature enough to stay out of them.

Disdain: On top of being separate from the people in her family due to her smarts, Lisa is also set apart from the schoolchildren at Springfield Elementary School. She is one of the least popular kids to attend the school, only having temporary friends who may last a single episode.

Emotional Fragility: Lisa can be very emotional as she feels strongly about many topics like global warming, feminism, and the arts. She has also been hinted at or directly said to be depressed on a few occasions, such as in "Gump Roast" (S13E17) when Homer says his sense of smell improved greatly and he could smell Lisa's depression from inside the car. The episode "Moaning Lisa" (S1E6) is all about Lisa's love for the saxophone being annulled by her music teacher and own father and how she is forced to take on a different personality to fit in.

Ned Flanders (Nedward Flanders) (NG)
"The nearly perfect, evangelical next-door neighbor of the Simpsons who lives with his two sons Rod and Todd. As the most God-fearing man in all of Springfield, Ned follows the Holy Bible's instruction to the best of his ability, eventually leading to his one-dimensionalism as a character which degraded him to nothing but a man of faith through a process known as Flanderization, a form of Character Destruction that was fittingly named after the man himself."

Pro (Score 5)
Allure: So many people in Springfield like Flanders that there's a song named "Everybody Loves Ned Flanders". This Allure of Flanders's is what drives Homer Simpson to hate him even more than he already does.

Elemental Resistance: Dark: Because of his faith in God, Flanders is able to withstand most hardships that he encounters unless such hardships are the crux of the current episode. This Dark Resistance also extends to the rest of the Flanderses in the household.

Familial Bond UP: Flanders strongly loves his family. When they encounter problems, Maude, Todd, and Rod all turn to Ned (and, of course, God) for direction on how to overcome their issues and emerge from their dark times. Flanders, in order to maintain his role as the Main's Bane in his love-hate relationship with Homer, is very protective of his two sons, doing everything in his power to shield them from the outside world and raise them the way he wants them to be raised, which contrasts Homer's attempts at Bart-ending. This leads to Rod and Todd being unfamiliar with anything from outside their little universe of the Flanders home and church, giving them both the Disdain UnTrait in school.

Fortune: Because Flanders is a Main's Bane, he is often depicted as a man who is luckier than Homer. On numerous occasions, the two go through the same situation and by its end, Flanders wins and Homer loses, which makes Homer jealous of Flanders for being the one who gets to be put in a favorable position.

Patience: Through the Bible's teachings, Flanders has learned many virtues such as patience. When Homer mocks or taunts him, Flanders is able to ignore the abuse to an extent most people wouldn't be able to manage.

Con (Score 2)
Bad Habit: Through over-parenting, Ned has shaped Rod and Todd into a couple of strange, bland children whose idea of fun is perceived as exceedingly boring by others. As he claims in "Bart Has Two Mommies" (S17E14), the reason Ned is so overbearingly protective of his two sons is because they're all he has ever since Maude passed. Although this doesn't directly affect the two boys in any negative way, it could potentially cause them to grow into dysfunctional teenagers and adults, a point Lisa alludes to in "My Sister, My Sitter" (S8E17)undefined.

Misfortune: At times, Flanders can struggle to get by and may be one of the most harmed people when a wave of trouble washes over Springfield (disease, bad weather, crime...). In "Hurricane Neddy" (S8E8), the Flanderses are apparently the only family who was truly negatively affected by a hurricane that hit Springfield and wrecked the family's home. To observant viewers, this episode and other instances of Flanders and his family being through the wringer are comparable to people in the Bible who were tested by God.

Montgomery Burns (Charles Montgomery Burns) (CE)
"The miserly millionaire Charles Montgomery Burns is infamous for his many dubious actions against the people of Springfield with plots driven by the greed for more riches. Without any relent for those he crushes with his schemes, Mr. Burns operates from either his prestigious office or mansion with his more-than-willing right-hand man Waylon Smithers at his side."

Pro (Score 3)
Prestige++: Mr. Burns's strongest Pro UnStat is caused directly by his strongest Con UnStat. Needless to say, because of his eternal, uncaring quest for more, Mr. Burns has become the richest man in town and proves it by living in a massive, luxurious mansion filled from top to bottom with expensive and likely rare decor.

Power: Being the head of a nuclear power plant, Mr. Burns has a great of power over his employees and usually exercises it through policy changes and unnecessary firings.

Con (Score 8)
Disdain: Mr. Burns's bad deeds from the past are what make him a wildly unpopular citizen of Springfield. Most of the town resents him and openly berates him, but this hatred from the Springfielders is mostly shrugged off and might even be welcomed at times.

Frailty+: Due to his old age, Mr. Burns has less physical strength than the average person. This is demonstrated by how he utterly lacks any form of fighting capability or can't perform any heavy-lifting tasks. At times, this UnTrait is exaggerated to the point of making him unable to lift objects that other people effortlessly do every day like a telephone or pen. To make up for how incredibly weak he is physically, Mr. Burns substitutes physical power with social power and instead uses his wealth to get his way.

Greed++: Without question, Mr. Burns's most persistent UnTrait is his lust for money. He's willing to go to extraordinary lengths to get his claw-like fingers around any large sum of money that he sets his sights on, and he did so on several occasions in earlier seasons of The Simpsons. [Although Mr. Burns has harmed many people through his bad deeds for more money, it can be argued that Eugene Krabs from SpongeBob SquarePants was more inexcusably cruel towards his two employees for much less valid reasons and smaller amounts of money.]

Iniquity: Mr. Burns has very little concern for the feelings of others around him, especially his coworkers he constantly insults and badmouths. It's because of his Iniquity Burns is able to carry out his cruel schemes against others without any regret.

Vanity: When he is in danger, Mr. Burns ensures his own security before thinking of anyone else's. There are occasions when he actively works towards endangering as shown in "Midnight Rx" (S16E6) when he took all three of the parachute available on his out-of-control plane from Homer and Abe.

Moe Szyslak (NN)
"Moe Szyslak is the main bartender of Springfield who deals alcoholic drinks in his bar, Moe's Tavern. As one of the town's loneliest and least attractive residents, he is naturally an aggressive man in nature, but he still looks out for his customers who, to him, are closer to life-long friendsundefined than average regulars."

Pro (Score 1.5)
Friend Bond UP: Moe treats his patrons more than everyday customers — he listens to their stories, participates in their outings, and visits their houses periodically. In "The Homer They Fall" (S8E3), after Homer's Resistance+ shields him from the otherwise severely damaging attacks being thrown at him by three of Springfield Elementary School's bullies' fathers, Moe steps in with his shotgun and scares the raging men off, telling them that there is a two-drink minimum if they wanted to beat his best friend in his bar to a pulp.

Fighting Spirit-: As mentioned before, Moe can be hostile at times, wildly wielding his shotgun at many given opportunities as opposed to simply talking or even making threats. Although he rarely ever pulls the trigger, using the weapon as a point of intimidation, he has non-canonically used it in a battle against living bar benches in a couch gag with excelling proficiency. In "The Homer They Fall", it is revealed that Moe has a background as a boxer originally named Kid Gorgeous.

Con (Score 7)
Bad Habit: Moe is possibly Springfield's largest Horn Dog, mostlyundefined shamelessly ogling women. His regular attraction is Marge Simpson, expressing many times how he has feelings for her. Possibly due to his Stupidity, Homer has never picked up on this whenever Moe makes his moves on Marge in front of him.

Disdain+: Living alone, spending much of his time by himself in his bar, and having only his daytime customers to hang out with, Moe is among the loneliest men living in Springfield. This lonesomeness is what drives him either to considering or nearly committing suicide, with a popular option of his being a noose.

Emotional Fragility: Moe has a short temper, easily being set off by one disagreement with someone else at times. If his anger is left to climb, he may pull his shotgun out on anyone making him upset.

Misery: Although Moe isn't necessarily either a Hothead or Sad Sack, his two most common emotions are anger and sadness. When Bart makes his prank phone calls to Moe, after the bartender falls for the joke, he makes a murderous threat at the young boy and swears he'll be a Bart ender, a joke that was made earlier on this page.

Undesirability+: The most recurrent UnTrait of Moe's is his Undesirability+ after suggested at being the ugliest man in all of Springfield. His bad looks have more than put him at a disadvantage in life. Just by having a face that's hard to look at, some of Moe's dreams have been crushed with his job as barkeep being the only aspiration he's been able to enjoy for a long time.
