Ask your parents to draw Homer Simpson!

[Doh004]

There was a thread on another forums that I'm a member to, and they had this awesome thread that I got a ton of laughs from. Here's the premise:

You can either call up, or ask your parents to draw from memory, right then and there, a picture of Homer Simpson. They can draw it on a piece of paper, or if you don't have a scanner/digital camera, they can draw it MS Paint.

You get some really interesting drawings, like my mom's:

She was doing well with the top of the head, and then ask she started drawing the face I proceeded to laugh uncontrollably. "Hmmm, what does his nose look like" resulted in the little scribble that is her nose. She then attempted to draw the mouth/chin, but honestly, that's not even close!

Now that you can see what my mom thinks Homer Simpson looks like, let's see your parents renditions!

I can't actually see any picture. o.o

[Doh004]

Fixed it. Stupid domain. :)

[SiDeWiNdEr]

Nope! I still can't see it! :P

[Serenla]

Nope! I still can't see it! :P

I think it's your issue Sidesy-baby, I've been able to see it both times :p My parents aren't here though.

Yeah I can see it fine also.


I dont live with my parents, but Ill ask when I go home for christmas (yes, possibly running the risk of digging this thread up should it go under, but nevermind that!) :p

My dad has this innate ability to sketch. I remember him mesmerizing me when I was younger on the etch-a-sketch. :) He'd probably be able to get out a simple drawing of him even though my parents hate The Simpsons. The typical thing I'd hear when a Simpsons commercial came on would be, "Stupid..."

I had the same problem, until I quoted that post. Then the pic came up. Would be interesting if my parents were not fans of it.

[Doh004]

Even if they are fans of the show it's interesting to see how they remember him or how they're able to draw.

Also, really try to get your parents to do it. It only takes a minute and once you get people that start posting, it gets pretty damn funny :)

[SiDeWiNdEr]

Still can't see it!!! Firefox must be having a paddy! I'll try and get my parents to do it later as I go 'round there for my dinner every Sunday!

[Toxic10x]

Neat idea :) I'll ask them to sometime soon. I just tried it myself and it came out accurate in all important respects. I guess that's what I get for being a bit of an artist though :p

Come on people, it doesn't take long to get your parents to do a quick sketch.

Hey, maybe truefeel's dad is Matt Groening- you just don't know.

[SirSnake]
