Who was in the right here?
>>144315215homer is on the right side
Homer, for his idiocy, was sincerely trying to be nice to Grimes and only ever wronged him because he could not comprehend how he made Grimes angry.Grimes was a bitter and unhappy person. Even with decent reason for that malcontent, he went out of his way to be angry and to try to "strike back" at a man who never actually tried to wrong him.

>>144315262this is like saying "is bad to kill your daughter's rapist because he never tried to wrong you"
>>144315273you really put all your braincells on that didn't you
>>144315273Your example is off IMO, a rapist is innately trying to foist himself on others while they don't want it, hence they are always doing wrong and must always be punished even if their targets are not related to you. Homer's wrongs to Grimes are all not only not directed at any person in particular but are all unconscious.
>>144315273What the fuck is this bait?Homer is more like a guy who found a loaded wallet on the street when Grimes is the fag who wouldve turned it in and seethes that Homer just kept the money
>>144315273How the fuck is Homer a rapist???
>>144315215Nobody. There was no moral. Frank was created to be someone who tries to apply the logic of the real world to the universe that revolves around the Simpson family. The show runner has even said as much. There's nothing deeper than that.
Edit this
>>144315215He looks and behaves like a chud, this is not accidental
>>144315215Childhood is feeling bad for Frank and thinking "omg what a meanspirited episode". Adulthood is realizing Frank was an asshole and Homer did nothing wrong.
>>144315339He's a rape victim actually
>>144316248are they going to have gay sex
>>144315215Not Homer
>>144315339Homer Badman
>>144316248They're doing that Special Barbie Month thing
>>144315215Frank Grimes was in the wrong, as John Swartzwelder tried to tell the world. Homer is a pretty nice guy here, all in all. It's not his fault he's the protagonist and the universe revolves around making sure his status quo never changes (meaning he will never lose his job or suffer any other lasting consequences).The thing is though that during the Jerkass Homer golden age of seasons 9-11 or so, Homer really does get away with acting like a villain and everyone around him acts as if this is OK, so maybe Frank was a prophet, criticizing episodes that didn't exist yet.
>>144315215idk but this frame goes hard
Honestly he WAS wronged, but he also jumped to conclusions about Homer's life, and made objectively fucking stupid decisions that got him killed.

>Homer = Spongebob>Grimes = SquidwardChange my mind.
Grimes is in the wrong for being an idiot who blames the lowest guy on the totem even if he's technically at fault. He just submits to Burns authority rather than stand up for himself to make things clear or fight for the job he was promised.Homer is in the wrong for being an idiot who fucks everything up.Grimes can't really be blamed for hating Homer, until he becomes embittered over how much better things are for Homer despite his incompetence.
>>144315262>Forgets how Homer fucked up all of Grimes stuff like his pencils and lunch
grimes was right, but he was also in the wrong.
>>144315262Grimes saved Homer's life and Homer repaid him by throwing him under the bus to Burns
>>144319562From Frank's point of view, he saved Homer's life. From the point of view of Homer and everyone else around him, Homer always survives mistakes that would kill anybody else, so his avoiding death is completely uneventful.Frank sort of understands this by the end of the episode, unfortunately he doesn't understand that it only works for Homer and maybe other regular characters on the show, but for a one-time minor character, doing dangerous things will get you killed.
>>144315215Bart for being proactive and owning a factory.
>>144315249This is the only reply this fuckery of a thread needed.
>>144318971Trying too hard.
>>144315215If you're as self aware as Grimes, you latch onto Homer and make use of his good fortune
>>144320110That's morally corrupt. But it could be an interesting project, a what if scenario. Grimes throws his ideals to the skies and simply uses Homer for his own interests. Trying to turn homer into the useful imbecile. How'd you think that'd turn out?
>>144318971I feel like you could reverse the roles and it would make the same amount of sense.
>>144316248>>144316729
>>144315215sneed possibly
>>144315215Homer.He went out of his way to prepare a lobster dinner for old Grimey, and this is how he thanks him?

>>144322013To be fair, it’s implied Homer got Grimes to show up under false pretenses so he has no reason to believe they are hosting a party just for him.
