Although I adore this show, there have been moments where I didn't laugh at a minor Simpsons character's failing, because it hit a bit too close to home. Everybody's got a little bit of Homer or Bart in them, and Marge and Lisa aren't all that hard to relate to either. But which one of Springfield's MINOR characters strikes a chord with you? All of the inhabitants of this cartoon town are seriously flawed in some way, and any good fan of the show knows that its humor spares no one, so pretty much everyone I'm sure has had a moment like mine.
I've got a bit of Ned Flanders in me. I have a tendancy to get self-righteous sometimes, and then act generously out of this sense of self-righteousness, but then fail to notice until it's too late that somebody is walking on me.
I've also got a touch of sideshow Mel -- the guy whose brilliance is overlooked for his random and sometimes bizarre social behavior.
But by far the one I'm most ashamed to relate to is Gil. He reminds me of the discouraged loser I turned into when I tried my hand at a very practical, bottom-line oriented job a couple years back.
