What Is The Simpsons

The Simpsons is an animated TV show created by Matt Groening.

A satirical sitcom that follows the lives of the Simpson family, it became famous for its humour, cultural references, and social commentary, making it one of the most influential TV series of all time. 

First airing in 1989, the Simpsons continues to this day, running for over 35 seasons and currently having up to 781 episodes.

This Simposons series has also spawned one feature film, tons of video games, a long-running comic series, LEGO sets, theme park attractions, albums, food, and crossed over with other popular franchises such as Family Guy and Rick and Morty.

I Choose You Simpsons Tattoo

@happykane_

Appearing in the episode ‘I Love Lisa,’ when Ralph Wiggum is left with no Valentine’s card on Valentine’s Day, Lisa, feeling sorry for the heartbroken boy, gives him his one and only card. 

The card, having a train with a happy face and the words “I Choo-Choo-Choose You” written on it, makes Ralph fall in love with Lisa, making him relentlessly pursue her until she angrily snaps at him on live TV, telling him how she never liked him. 

Evil Homer Tattoo

@pottertatts

When the ‘greatest day of the year,’ whacking day, is on the horizon, Lisa struggles with the morality of the event, telling her father that the day itself is evil. 

Homer responds that ‘evil’ is part of our human nature, and that inside every man is a struggle between good and evil that cannot be resolved.

That is before his imagination depicts a devil dressed ‘Evil Homer’ dancing by the grave of ‘Good Homer.’ 

Simpsons Gremlin Tattoo

@letsmakebaddecisions

During the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror IV, Bart is awoken by a nightmare of his school bus crashing.

Alf Pogs, remember Alf? He’s back, in Pog form!

Snowball Simpsons Tattoo

Snowball Simpsons Tattoo

@jen_urchin

Snowball is the Simpson’s pet cat, whom the Simpsons have had many of. 

The first Snowball died before the beginning of the series after being hit by Clovis Quimby’s car. 

The most well-known Snowball, Snowball II, was a black cat who appears throughout the show until she dies in season 15. 

Snowball III drowned in the fish tank within moments of being adopted, and its replacement, Coltrane, jumps out of a window almost immediately.

Snowball V, the current Simpson’s pet, is identical to Snowball II and is called Snowball II also to avoid confusion.

If you’re Irish and love the Simpsons, such as myself, why not get yourself a Leprechaun Simpsons Tattoo? 

Named O’Reilly the Leprechaun, he has appeared in a number of episodes frequently shown in the Treehouse of Horror series for one-off gags, but probably is mostly remembered as Ralph’s imaginary friend who tells him to burn things.

5 Bees For A Quarter Tattoo

5 Bees For A Quarter Tattoo

@lars_ir

At Tattoo Design, we have our ways to keep people engaged with our content for longer.

One trick is to tell them stories that don’t go anywhere.

Like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days.

So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time.

Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on them.

Give me five bees for a quarter you’d say. 

Now, where were we, Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time.

They didn’t have white onions, because of the war, the only thing you could get was those big yellow ones………

Muumuu Homer Tattoo

Muumuu Homer Tattoo

@rizostattoo

“Shame on all of you, give me my dignity, I just came here to watch Honk if you’re Horny in peace.”

In the seventh episode of the seventh season, named “King-sized Homer,” Homer decides to increase his girth to a whopping 300 pounds so he can claim disability, allowing him to work from home and avoid a compulsory morning callisthenics program. 

Looking for something ‘loose and billowy’ and something comfortable for his ‘first day at work,’ rather than buying a poncho, cape, jumpsuit, unisheet, muslin body roll, academic or judicial robes, Homer, electing not to look like a ‘weirdo,’ decides to just go with the muumuu. 

Rag On A Stick Tattoo

Rag On A Stick Tattoo

@grave_ghost_tattoo

During the same episode, when Homer mocks Bart and Lisa for having to go to work while he’s allowed to work from home, Lisa tells her father she would live at school if she could. 

Bart, however, claims that when he grows up, he desires to be a ‘lardo on workman’s comp’ just like his father before fantasizing about being morbidly obese and bed-bound and claiming that he ‘washes himself with a rag on a stick.’

Kang And Kodos Tattoo

Kang And Kodos Tattoo

@shauna.lestrange.tattoo

Siblings of the Rigellian species coming from the planet Rigel VII, Kang and Kodos have appeared in at least one segment of all thirty-five Treehouse of Horror episodes, as well as some appearances in non-Treehouse episodes. 

The pair are almost always villains, trying to enslave, eat, or destroy humanity, often laughing maniacally while doing so.

Punching Lenny Tattoo

Punching Lenny Tattoo

@whisperstattoo

When Homer considers resigning as Union President at the plant, Marge tries to encourage him by saying they love him at the Power Plant. 

Homer agrees, stating that the guys are always ‘patting his bald head for luck and pinching his belly to hear his girlish laugh.” 

When Marge then questions whether they do, in fact, actually like him, he decides that she is right and elects to punch Lenny in the back of the head the following morning.

Simpsons Tattoo Tattoo

Simpsons Tattoo Tattoo

@sam.nancy.tattoos

If you love The Simpsons and tattoos, why not get yourself a tattoo of Simpsons characters with their own tattoos? 

This tattoo is a recreation of a scene from the eighth episode of the fifth season named “Boy-Scoutz ‘n the Hood.” 

In the episode, Bart and Milhouse go on a ‘Squishy Bender’ after drinking a Super Squishy made entirely out of syrup.

In one scene during their ‘Springfield musical,’ the pair go to a 24-hour Rub-on-Tattoo parlour to get themselves a set of rub-on tattoos.

Quote The Raven Tattoo

Quote The Raven Tattoo

@simonturnertattoo

In the very first Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror, Lisa recounts to Bart the Edgar Allan Poe poem “The Raven.” 

In the episode, Bart appears as the Raven, Marge appears as Lenore, and Homer as the narrator with James Earl Jones guest starring as Homer’s thoughts.

Mr. Sparkle Simpsons Tattoo

@ashrixtattoos

A Japanese dishwashing detergent, Mr. Sparkles’ uncanny resemblance to Homer is actually a result of a joint venture between Matsumura Fishworks and Tamaribuchi Heavy Manufacturing Concern, who combined their mascots of a fish and a lightbulb, respectively, to make Mr. Sparkle. 

Doughnut Homer Tattoo

Doughnut Homer Tattoo

@tooth_fairy_tattoos

But I’m so sweet and tasty. 

Coming from “Treehouse of Horror IV,” in “The Devil and Homer Simpson,” after Lenny and Karl had eaten and then thrown the rest of the Power Plants’ doughnuts at an old man for kicks, Homer, in desperation sells his soul to the Devil for a single doughnut. 

Upon finishing the doughnut, Homer is dragged to hell, but not before Lisa asks for a trial to save his soul.

Thankfully, Homer pledged his soul to Marge on their wedding day, meaning it was never his to trade with the Devil. 

Having his soul saved from Hell, Satan punishes his ill-gotten gains by forever transforming his head into a doughnut.

Graceful yet masculine, so it’s ok for you to enjoy this.

His ‘healthy’ green glow comes from a lifetime working at the nuclear power plant. 

Awwh, it’s Mr. Burns… KILL IT!

However, it is revealed that Homer has taped the photos to the plaque, covering portions so that it now reads “Do it for her.”

After Homer steals the candy, he misplaces it and gives up the search in order to bring the babysitter home.

Where To Get Your Simpsons Tattoo

If you’ve already decided which Simpsons Tattoo you’d like, now let’s take a look at some of the best locations for the design. 

Leg Simpsons Tattoo

Leg Simpsons Tattoo

@dicky1981

The leg is great for large, detailed designs that are easy to conceal if needed.

This area is less painful than areas with thinner skin and ages well due to less sun exposure. 

Chest Simpsons Tattoo

Chest Simpsons Tattoo

@miro.tat

Chest tattoos are close to the heart, making them great for meaningful tattoo designs.

The large space is perfect for big, detailed designs, and the location is easy to cover unless you’re shirtless.

Thigh Simpsons Tattoo

Thigh Simpsons Tattoo

@harry.plane

That’s one fine-looking barbeque pit.

The thigh is ideal for big, detailed designs and is less painful than bony areas, thanks to more muscle and fat cushioning the needle.

These tattoos aren’t exposed to sunlight often, so they age well and are also easy to hide if needed.

Simpsons Tattoo On The Forearm

Simpsons Tattoo On The Forearm

@winstonartwork

With a forearm tattoo, you can see your tattoo every day, and it is one of the least painful areas to get inked, making it a great choice for first tattoos.

Hand With Simpsons Tattoo

Hand With Simpsons Tattoo

@i_am_mora

The hand is one of the most visible tattoo placements that is perfect for small and simple designs.

However, this area is constantly exposed & washed, particularly tattoos on the palm such as this one, making them fade quicker, and the thin skin & bony structure make it more painful than other areas.

Conclusion

Worst. Tattoo list. Ever. 

We tried our best and failed miserably. The lesson is, never try….. Anyway, as we reach the end of our tattoo list, we must move forward, not backward, upward, not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom. 

But if Simpsons Tattoos still dohn’t make you feel like everything’s coming up Milhouse, then give these Cartoon Tattoo Ideas a paddling, see if you don’t make friends with these Film Tattoo Designs, or welcome the Simpsons new overlords with these Disney Tattoos.
