35 years old with a 10, 8, and 1 year old is fucking ROUGHNo wonder he's in constant financial disarray
H-Homer is only 35?
>>153793628Yes, he was ten when Super Smash Bros Melee came out, watched SpongeBob as a kid, used social media in high school, and in college around the time the first Avengers movie came out
>>153793628I thought he was 38, but anywhere between 35-40 makes sense
he's 40
>>153793550Wasn't Homer born in 1956? He should be 80
>>153794052Behold, zoomer math.
>>153794144Right? HOMER WOULD BE LIKE 60
>>153793831For some reason I always remember 35 but I looked it up and you're right
>>153793664.........FUCK
>>153793550Oh fuck, I'm literally his age now.
Is Abe still a WW2 vet? Is Skinner a Nam POW?
>>153796488Yes kek
>>153796488Skinner would be in his 70's if he was in Nam.
He's 39.
>>153793550>tfw only a year younger than himAh well, I'm basically a cartoon dad minus the family.
>>153800526Men shouldn't have kids until 35 at the earliest Homer is just retardedWomen shouldn't have kids past 25 btw
>>153793550Would it really be any easier if he was 25 or 45 or 55 instead?
>>153800836Anon, I don't think I fucking want kids, I'm already stressed enough as it is.
>>153800836We get it. You’re a sexual predator.
>>153800906Absolutely>>153800930based biology denier
>>153793550>raising three kids to adulthood in 1996 costs ~$400,000 all told>today that number is $300,000 *per child*There's your reason for population decline, ya dinguses
>>153800964This can't possible be rightThere's no way the percentiles happen to be identical across a ton of ages
>>153801058Ehhhh you can twist these numbers to tell whatever story you wantI've got a feeling that the families I see when I'm driving through the bad part of town aren't spending $35,000 a year on daycare like these studies say everyone has to
>>153801113Why are you driving through the bad parts of town, anon?
>>153796446Wait until 2036, he'll have been born in 2001.
>>153801395>his mom left to join Occupy Wallstreet
>>153801395>>153801583God......damnit.......
>>153801583Occupy Wall St was the last soulful American protest before protestors just believed in whatever wall st told them to
>>153801356That's where his customerbase is located.
>>153793550>safety inspector at nuclear plant>average salary for that position is $50k-$80k/year>constant financial disarray With that salary Homer can afford a wife, house, 2 cars, 3 kids, a cat, and a dog
>>153802789He can't though, grampa got him the house and he's still lost it multiple times
>>153797858Yeah, Abe is old enough to be the average Nam vet while Skinner is at the 1st Gulf War/War on Terror range
>>153800930You are an actual troglodytic retard.
>>153793550Financial disarray? He literally supports the whole household with his 1 income.
I love that people treat Abe's stories like their crazy but then you see the adventures homer gets up to and its entirely possible that Abe actually did live those adventures.
>>153801395I'm pretty sure they'll have stopped because the original cast will have died by then
Honestly depending on where Homer lives I think his lifestyle is still fairly believableIf we assume he has a good union and is getting ~$80,000 with benefits and Marge manages the taxes and budgeting and shit, he could probably have something like this and have enough money for her to not work while also providing food and clothes and such for the kids, cutting corners where he can and occasionally having some money to splurge on a trip to Capitol City (Chicago) for whatever reason, especially if he bought a house when Bart was a baby since real estate tends to appreciate
>>153807557I'll also say that a huge thing people forget when doing those "It costs $8m to raise a child!" things is that if your wife doesn't work it's not like you're paying her a salary to watch the kids and take care of the house, which those always factor in
>>153794052He would be as old as Godzilla and Disneyland if that was the case
>>153803570He has 0 savings. They live paycheck-to-paycheck, and we've seen that Homer only makes $400 a week (real jobs pay that much every day)
>>153793628He's also only 239lbsWhich was comically obese 30 years ago
>>153801395>eventually Homer will be born after 9/11That hurts
>>153806722They'll just replace them with soundalikes or AI.
>>153807880>Ate like shit and never dieted throughout most of my 20's>Weighed 237 at my biggest>Never thought I looked anything close to Homer
>>153793550>in constant financial disarray>owns a house at 35 despite his wife not working
>>153809394It's depressing that this is considered unachievable now
>>153808067How tall are you? Homer is like 5'8
>>153809394>>153809713Depending on where you live owning a house on $80k is really, really normal. Not everyone lives in California, NY, and Massachusetts>>153807557
>>153802789You really think Burns pays his employees anywhere close to the average salary for their respective position?
>>153809834I don't live in any of those states and that still seems unrealistic
>>153807836Living paycheck-to-paycheck while owning your own home, two cars, 3 kids, one pet, while only on one income? That's still wealthy as fuck my guy
>>153810341Both cars are heavily used shitboxes and the kids aren't exactly living extravagantly, Lisa getting an instrument was a huge dealThere are literally millions of families in poverty doing exactly what you're describing in the USA
>>153793628The Simpsons is a 40-year-old show concept. Try as they might to "get with the times," the titular family can no longer be a proper representation of the modern American family. They'd for sure be living in an apartment for one
>>153810387Not really? Only 20% of Americans live in apartments and in 1990 it was 18%You're basically describing the difference between adolescence and adulthood, since you're young you still live in an apartment and you get a house when it's time to start a family, or since we're on 4chan realistically you don't start a family
>>153810387They were already a bit of an anachronism in the 1980's. Like how Bart and Lisa watch a variety hour clown show that no 80's kid would have watched, and Marge's beehive haircut.
>>153810458The Tom and Jerry parody too was another clear cut thing from way before their time. Also baseball being more popular than football
>>153810387He makes 200k from being a nuclear safety inspector so it makes sense he can afford a house.
>>153810716The average safety inspector would make like $80k but as established ITT that's enough
>>153810435>or since we're on 4chan realistically you don't start a family D'oh...
>>153796488Last time they updated it Abe fought in Vietnam and Skinner in Desert Storm
>>153793550Homer at the cinema
>>153807880Depends on height and weight distribution reallyHomero was all fat, so of course he looked fat
>>153796488Not anymore, now Abe was the one in Vietnam and Skinner was in the Gulf War
>>153812860>>153815767They did?
