Definitely worth watching, even better than the Top 100 Chuck Norris Facts, though the UK location slightly breaks the illusion.

    WHOA! OK that was pretty cool

  2. Ed   19 years ago

    Egg-Cellent.

  3. Stevo Darkly   19 years ago

    Oh, that was so cool! You rock, Cavanaugh.

  4. MayDay72   19 years ago

    Worst episode ever!

  5. MayDay72   19 years ago

    Worst episode ever!

  6. MayDay72   19 years ago

    D'oh! Stupid double post...

  7. sage   19 years ago

    The one fact they left out about Chuck Norris: He ain't Jack Bauer.

  8. Alan Vanneman   19 years ago

    I don't give a damn about the Simpsons, so I might as well come up with a few CN facts, to wit:

    1. Chuck Norris does not believe in God. God believes in Chuck Norris.*

    2. If you go to the exact middle of the Sahara Desert, you will see a sign. That sign will say ?Chuck Norris farted here.?

    3. If you go to the northernmost point of the Grand Canyon, you will see a sign. That sign will say ?Chuck Norris urinated here.?

    4. If you sail to the exact middle of the mouth of the Amazon River, you will see a sign (a floating sign). That sign will say ?Four thousand miles upstream, Chuck Norris is taking a piss.?

    5. Reality bites, but only because Chuck Norris told it to.

    6. The dinosaurs did not die out because of a meteorite. They died out because Chuck Norris got tired of their sass.

    7. Chuck Norris has never won an Academy Award, because Academy Awards are for acting. Chuck Norris does not act. Chuck Norris is.

    8. The stars in the ?P? on the cover of Playboy do not indicate the number of times Hugh Hefner has had sex with the playmate. They indicate the number of orgasms the playmate has upon hearing Chuck?s name.

    9. Chuck Norris does not speak. His (one) facial expression intimidates people into guessing (correctly) his thoughts.

    10. Chuck Norris does not give autographs. He does, however, take names.

    *Surely this has been said of some southern football coach?

  9. Jamie Kelly   19 years ago

    ZZzz.
    Give it a rest with the Chuck Norris. It had its five seconds of fame.
    The live action Simpsons is way better. It didn't give me gay.

  10. Geotech   19 years ago

    Theory:

    Chuck Norris and Gary Busey are both of Irish and Cherokee descent. They're both from the southwest US. I believe they may be distant cousins.

  11. sage   19 years ago

    Jamie:

    "It didn't give me gay."

    Uh, so what did?

  12. Deus ex Machina   19 years ago

    Funny, but not as funny as Young Chuck Norris.

  13. Warren   19 years ago

    The best thing you can say about Chuck Norris, is that he isn't Jean-Claud Van Damme.

    Hooray for live-action Simpsons

  14. SR   19 years ago

    "Chuck Norris and Gary Busey are both of Irish and Cherokee descent. They're both from the southwest US. I believe they may be distant cousins."

    Except that Chuck Norris doesn't play someone in a Turkish movie who removes organs from Iraqi POWS without anaesthetic -- he does that for a hobby!

  15. Dave Straub   19 years ago

    In that clip, Homer drives a Lada Riva. Quite fitting.

    She'll go 300 hectares on a single tank of kerosene. Put it in H!

  16. Mr. F. Le Mur   19 years ago

    The best thing you can say about Chuck Norris, is that he isn't Jean-Claud Van Damme.

    My Bunny Hun is in love with Chuck Norris. Should I kick his ass or kick her ass?

  17. SR   19 years ago

    "She'll go 300 hectares on a single tank of kerosene."

    Isn't a hectare a measure of area rather than distance?

  18. Jamie Kelly   19 years ago

    I got gay watching "Fried Green Tomatoes" and listening to old Chet Baker recordings.

  19. Warren   19 years ago

    Should I kick his ass or kick her ass?

    Why choose?

  20. Andrew Ian Dodge   19 years ago

    That live action intro is pretty amusing. I like the fact Homer is driving a Lada.

  21. MayDay72   19 years ago

    She'll go 300 hectares on a single tank of kerosene. Put it in H! -Dave Straub

    Isn't a hectare a measure of area rather than distance? -SR

    Yeah. But the mistake is in the original quote...
    http://www.snpp.com/episodes/9F07

    I'm sure the manual will indicate which lever is the velocitator and which the deceleratrix...
