Oh boy, ILX! That's where I'm a viking!..?

I think that's completely right, and the answer would still be B and not A...

that is 100% the correct interpretation imo

I'm a little more mad about the super nintendo chalmers thing.

so i get why ppl are saying 'excels,' although i think its more like 'explores' -

yeah but you are not arguing that ralph is saying he "explores at sleep" you are just arguing about him being something else in his sleep. as k3v said you aren't really bridging anything here.

any interpretation that has ralph truly grasping what a viking is/does is wacky to me

i am arguing that he explores sleep, absolutely -- that it implies he is a viking at sleeping as well as literally being a viking. i think the writers intentionally built ambiguity into it, so no, not b. both

why would ralph not know what a viking is? thats not exactly an obscure bit of history

pretty clear that Ralph is a cipher

So, what this thread really needs to explore is the issue of who would win in a fair fight: Ralph Wiggum or a napkin dispenser?

btw lol @ this being the one meaningless dumb argument where ppl like to climb up and say "gee fellas it really sucks that you just can't respect people's opinions and consider the other side"

deej are you familiar with the character of ralph?

You guys this thread is killing me. This is like .00000000000125 steps away from those dudes that post 35 page long Simpsons "episode guides".

deej is attempting to make the a. people look good by coming up w/ an even worse answer

ffs it is patently clear that the reason this argument is so popular is that it allows people to argue, for fun, with absolutely nothing at stake. it's really not so surprising that we're all going round and round on it.

this isn't like a us politics thread or some iltmi bullshit where *feelings might be hurt*

not nothing at stake! i would hate to see ralph co-opted by rightwingers.

lol

btw I just got a call that I'm getting a book deal out of this thread so nyah nyah

right wingers pretty much ruined Groundskeeper Willy's "surrender-monkeys" for me.

GO TO THE FUCK YOU SONS OF PICHES!!1!1!!!

no. in context, "A" makes a fair amount of sense -- the word 'viking' certainly leads u to believe he might have meant that he is an explorer/on the frontier/cutting edge of sleep. i think the choice of 'the viking' was intentional & suggests that the 'real answer' is ambiguity -- that we're not entirely supposed to understand ralph's meaning

cad is otm tho it's not like we have anything better to do on a Tuesday night

deej, you realize that like EVERYONE you are calling out by name for being disappointing are not taking this argument nearly as seriously as you seem to be, right

please don't devalue the efforts of usenet simpsons recapper weirdos, if those things didn't exist there would have been nothing to do in seventh grade computer lab but search encarta for swears

i don't think this would be a 95 page thread if Ralph said "yay, sleep, where I'm a hedgehog" or "yay sleep where I'm a Geisha"...

"it is super disappointing that people are having mutually-understood fun, I really expected better of you guys" *shakes head*

wooster

okay let's not go there, Mr Begging-To-Be-Banned

tbh I don't even know why it's a zing

if those things didn't exist there would have been nothing to do in seventh grade computer lab but search encarta for swears

crackin up at this

i dont see how im taking it any more seriously than u aside from avoiding any hairs-breadth away from Ned Raggett type "*chuckles*" posts

who is cattle grind

how is 'the writing is intentionally ambiguous' a bad answer

cattle grind is bjo

why is he being creepy itt

btw granny dainger the bulls lost and iirc 'bulls' starts with a 'b' so you lose

the word 'viking' certainly leads u to believe he might have meant that he is on the cutting edge of sleep.

like gucci mane is on the cutting edge of rap music maybe

I went with option A - that's where I excel. I don't think Ralph knows the literal meaning of viking

this thread is now complete

guys

stop posting to this stupid fucking thread

^^ new board description

yeah I kinda love how guys are all like "this is the last time I'm ever posting to this thread" and then 5 minutes later "it's option b you fuckwits"

john then we would have to argue about something important and that's just not what i want to be doing

'the word 'viking' certainly leads u to believe he might have meant that he is on the cutting edge of sleep.'

duh

deej, i didn't think you could have worse opinions and there you go.

ralph is obv very good at not many things, but one thing he would be good at is sleep -- 'cutting edge of sleep' is me being tongue-in-cheek
