    -made Bart the Heir to his fortune
    -Been shot by Maggie
    -fell in love with Marge and had a painting made of him.

      Savage Savannah I finished season 8 and that’s where I pretty much think that’s where the series ends. Anyway there’s an episode where Burnes loses all his money and asks Lisa for help. She helps him and they recycle and mr Burnes becomes a monster by using a giant net in the sea to recycle whale and dolphin meat paste to sell it.
      So that completes his interaction with every member of the family.

      Ok first off thanks for actually replying.Also yeah he went broke and begged Lisa to help.So she did and they collected cans and sold them for money.Then Mr Burns saved so much he made the “Lil Lisa Recycling Plant” and he remembered that Lisa told him to cut the can holders so fish wouldn’t get trapped.He thought it would be a good thing to wipe the sea clean and make slurry with the sea animals.Lisa freaked and went home.Mr Burns came and offered her over 12,000 dollars Homer got a heart attack because she didn’t accept it and that’s we’re the episode ended.Also yeah season 9 was probably the worse season.

    Both of my Grandfathers fought for the US in WW2. I wish I heard their stories about the war but they’ve both passed old Age. I got a lot of Vets in my Family but me, I’m not brave enough to take a life to preserve others while risking my own.

      You know they have jobs that don't involve shooting people right? Like human resources people, cooks, supply specialists. You also know that the vast majority of people in the Military are in non combat jobs right? Not everybody in the military is fucking rambo. If your capable of doing it I'd give it a shot. Did it a long time ago as a cook and came out of it with a degree and no debt to pay off for the rest of my life either.
