Grimes
Anyone who fell for the meritocracy meme is a bigger moron than homer

Grimes only because homer didn't do anything. Grimes is of course right about everything, but if he had just ignored homer he'd have been unaffected by him.

Grimes thinking he's owed shit

Grimes
He fucked with our Homer and got what he deserved

Frank had every right to be stressed about Homer being a liability in a nuclear power plant but going off on him in his own home was uncalled for. And his mental breakdown sealed his fate.

Nobody was. Why do you guys need to try and paint Grimes like he was this terrible, horrible person?

Grimes, for liking hookers

I used to feel more sympathetic for Grimes and assumed everyone just saw him as some proto-incel archetype character to take cheap shots and kick while he's down until I started encountering people like him in real-life. I'll take a kind and friendly moron who manages to not only coast through life but succeed over some weird asshole who takes all of his personal issues out on you because he's elected you to be the face that represents "everything wrong with the world". The seething from these people anytime something good happens to you is lifefuel.

How can anyone reasonably blame Homer for existing in a cartoon world where his comical idiocy is rewarded?

>Writers and artists independently converge on the same look to quickly signal a specific personality: rigid morality, status anxiety, grievance, and over-preparedness in a world that no longer rewards rule-following. Tense posture, utilitarian dress, and severe expressions communicate “I did everything right and still lost,” without needing exposition. Memes didn’t create the look — they just compressed a long-standing narrative archetype into a label.

This episode was and still is so overhyped it's honestly unbelievable that after 3 decades of being on air to hundreds of millions, an episode of some realistic guy getting upset over Homer and his cartoonish nature being seen as one of if not the best of the entire series is so fucking sad. The entire concept feels like some filler garbage the writers thought was mildy funny enough to actually make and then boom the plethora of autists that make up 95% of this show's fanbase dissected the fuck out of this episode like it was found in Da Vinci's floorboards

Grimes should have hated the system, not the man oblivous to the system itself. He died after dedicating himself to a blood vendetta against a man providing for his own family while at the same time inviting him to his own home. Homer did nothing but try to break bread with him, yet Grimes couldn't do the same despite BOTH of them not liking their boss who allows the system to begin with.
