Dr. Rank that would actually hold in court, tbh. When a DUI ends with a death, it’s generally ruled as vehicular manslaughter because the driver “acted with reckless disregard for life.” If you were driving above the legal limit for BAC and the brake line failed just before the accident, a good lawyer could prove that it was an accidental homicide (i.e. it could’ve happened to anybody) instead of manslaughter. You’d have to go to trial because the prosecution would argue that you knew the brake line was busted and the alcohol impaired you from realizing that, but it could be proven (if cameras recorded you stopping at lights, for example). The DUI charge will stick because you were obviously driving under the influence, but the vehicular manslaughter charge is definitely winnable albeit with like 50-50 odds of acquittal.
I like to call it instant sobriety even though you’re completely shitfaced when the situation comes in you have enough adrenaline running through your system you’re pretty much sober up and about a half a second
"Don't cry for me, I'm already dead." I watched The Simpsons as a small boy and I still think about that quote to this very day. His character is both incredibly funny and sad at the same time. Ole Barney *burp
Yeah. In principle, getting older, can see many tragic things about characters' leaves, though it's a comic show. Here's Barney, he had been a smart, determined guy, but the drink made him an ordinary stupid entity. And it's a common stuff in our life. Lately I extremely often look at people and realize somebody of the show in random humans
He drank a fruit juice that had been unknowingly mixed heavily with Marijuana plants. So a significant portion of Springfield was tricked into being high and he fought back with bring drunk.
When you think about it, Barney actually has a lot of depth and character development... that sort of went down the drain after the writers decided to make him a running gag. Alcoholism is such a serious issue, and the earlier seasons perfectly encapsulated the effects and consequences of having an addiction to drinking. Or an addiction to anything, really, but in this case it’s alcohol. Before they mucked it up, Barney was actually intelligent, physically capable, artistic and had a lot of drive. The guy had many talents and even in one episode it says that he had majored in art/dance, proving that if it weren’t for alcohol, he would be in a better position in life. Then in one episode he got better, only for the writers to give him another addiction and have his life continue to go nowhere.
No, Barney was a joke at the beginning of the Simpsons, kind of like Norm Peterson from Cheers, and THEN they added depth to his character then after about 6 years of the Simpsons, all the writers got better jobs and left it to the B-Team, who later got better jobs and it went to the C-Team, then D-Team leaving us with whatever they have running it now.
@@anthonyinteresting4736 For someone named "Anthony Interesting," you really are a stick in the mud. The Simpsons may be goofy, but it's still a work of art that deserves to be recognized for all tat it gets right.
@@manstonhisk667 Its a line from Barney's movie @ 6:10 . There was a character in 'Othello' named Cassio. He gets drunk and regrets it. Thats where this line comes from originally. The line in t.v. show is there just to make the scene ironic. Barney can quote Shakespere in his film, but has to much alcohol induced brain damage to remember that he even made a film.
@@manstonhisk667 The character Cassio was a man of honor. He got drunk and dishonored himself. The quote was about his regret. That pretty well covers it.
Barney's probably the most tragic character on The Simpsons- he was a promising, potentially even brilliant young man, who unfortunately had a natural propensity for alcoholism, which he never discovered up until he was in college when Homer pressured him into trying beer. Since then he's almost constantly been the butt of the show's, and the world's, jokes. Basically Homer, his supposed "best friend", completely ruined his life, and we're usually just expected to laugh at it.
@Jan Michael Vincent Entirely wrong. It was completely Homer's fault. Barney didn't WANT to even try beer until Homer peer pressured him into doing it. That's literally _the entire point of the scene:_ that Homer is responsible for ruining his friend's life.
Just how things are sometimes. I'll tell ya, i live across the street (sideways across not facing across) from mom and pop grocery store and a liquor store owned by the same. A few weeks ago, early dec, i come out of my apt and i see a garden tractor mower parked in my buildings parking lot. I think to myself, i'll bet you anything that guy's across the street buying alcohol. Sure enough i'm sitting in my car getting ready to go and he comes walking over with a 12 pack of beer in one hand and a liquor bottle in the other. Doesn't that seem like something barney would do, ride around town in freezing temps on a lawn mower to buy rather large quantities of alcohol.
5:53 The simpsons writers used to be really good at making joke sequences: first you've got the hilariously surreal joke of Barney running straight to the jetpack and actually flying it surprisingly well for a drunk, then you've got him getting injured hitting a place that stores pillows followed by him getting ran over by a lorry (or truck, pick whichever one you like) carrying marshmallows, and then the final icing on the cake is the fact that the wine he drunk was non alcoholic. And all of this happens in a matter of seconds.
@@richard7645 That’s an ignorant and judgmental view of the situation. Sure, there’s the factor of responsibility. But blaming people for being “that way” is a sure fire way to make sure they don’t get the help they need to get sober. There’s also the genetic factor in addiction.
There’s a Palmerston Ave in my city. Every time I see the street sign, the voice of Barney Gumble appears in my head with him arguing with Wade Boggs that Lord Palmerston was Britain’s greatest Prime Minister
No. They are both "dumb" characters, but they have very different personalities. Barney is more compassionate at the very least. Patrick is pretty much just an asshole. Even in Seasons 1-3 Patrick was a bad influence.
Barney isn't dumb, he's drunk. Despite being in an alcoholic haze for 60% of his life he's odly functional and as seen before he was a drunkard he was the smartest one of the crew.
Yeah I kinda agree, spongebob is dumb infront of many people but smart infront of Patrick. Homer is dumb in general but (sorta I guess) smart infront of Barney
The excerpt when he's a student, and Homer gives him a beer, reminded me there's an episode of Taxi that has Rev Jim (Christopher Lloyd) 'before the drugs'.
I hated when the show introduced us to the actual father of Nelson... I'd swear it had to be Barney (same look, same voice, destructive behaviour)... Even Snake was not such a perfect match!
I can't help but notice nearly all these are all in 4x3 aspect ratio, because it's been 25 years since The Simpsons was brilliant. I feel badly for people that think what is currently being made.
Probably. Nelson's dad went to the store and never came back. I suspect that if Barney was his dad, the store was out of duff so he went to Moe's tavern and never came back.
Funny the scene from the episode where Burns regained his fortune was missing, his 'recycling' plant had windows made of used liquor bottles and Barney was trying to suck them dry!
As a HUGE fan of the simpsons (I’ve seen every episode) as I have connected to the characters. Weirdly I am sad that homer ruined Barney’s life like if he didn’t do that he would have a nice place to stay when marge kicked homer out of the house cause he took pictures with someone
I used to think Barney is always burping because he is just currently drinking beer. But it’s actually because he has advanced liver damage that causes gastrointestinal problems and symptoms; such as burping.
Barney's movie had heart, but football in the groin had a football in the groin.
That was very deep
It worked on so many levels
Bahahahahabahaha
"Don't cry for me, I'm already dead"
Homer - "Wow. I will never drink another beer".
Steward selling beer - "BEER HERE"
Homer - "I'll take ten!"
This isn't America's funniest home videos.
The chickens walked off the stage looking disappointed that they weren't juggled.
I thought wow Barney got talent for chickens lol 😂
never noticed that hahhaha
They looked so dejected, but I'm sure Homer gave them a good home.
Such a great detail.
actually sad
I like how Barney was smart enough to save Maggie
And yet calls the tiger a pony and calls Maggie Bart and a boy
You mean he saved Bart
Hugh Jass yes 😂
Pokeboy890 I know it’s sad but at least he tried is all I care about
Barney would probably be a very successful smart person if it wasn’t for his alcoholism. Kinda sad..
In Barneys defence, the jetpack incident was fundamentally a mechanical failure.
"Yes, your honour, I was drunk at the wheel, but it's not my fault the brake line sprung a leak!"

Tbf he looks to be having a lot of fun being a drunk. Isn't that what we all want at the end of the day, to enjoy life?
Bukowski wished he were so poignant.
LOL in the German dub it was called "pukethousand and one" as a reference to "2001 - a space odyssey"
To sum up Barney in one quote: The brightest stars fade the fastest
'Excuse me, did something crawl down your throat and die?'
'It didn't die.'
:D That's some funny stuff right there.
I love the scene where Barney drinks an obscure beer brand, and has the scary hallucination. Then he drinks a Duff, and that hallucination helps him
He drank a fruit juice that had been unknowingly mixed heavily with Marijuana plants.
So a significant portion of Springfield was tricked into being high and he fought back with bring drunk.
