The condescending way Duffman talks to Barney tells so much about the character. He's just a guy in a costume doing a silly gimmick for a paycheck, and once the party is over he returns to his boring house.
Barney has, at various points, been a world-famous singer, an award-winning filmmaker, an astronaut, and a submarine crewman. I'd totally believe he gave a guest lecture at Villanova.
Best line to use in real life: *"I oughta punch you in the nose! ..But I have to pickup my kids from school"* (..then I just leave and go to the bathroom or whatever)
Who else thought the music and the dancing peanut bowl were just Barney hallucinating from not drinking, the first time you saw this? When he was saying "not tonight," I thought he meant it as in "oh God, please don't let tonight be the night the psychotic break is finally going to happen!" Like, he knew that if he stopped drinking long enough he'd literally go crazy and desperately didn't want it to happen that night in front of his friends.
@@TheDutchGhost, that is what makes him a pretty sad character. He was shown to be very talented and capable of great things when sober. But his alcohol addiction always sends him spiraling back.
3:28 that is some genius level misdirection combined with surreal humour: you get the audience to think that there's going to be a joke about Barney sobering up and earning himself the kind of live where he can afford his own limo but...well you saw the punchline already.
Who ever gets the black egg Goes to the anime convention with me Homer: whew Lenny: whew Carl: ah Larry: whew Sam: oh Barney: NOOOOOOO!!!!! Homer: you got the black one
4:04 Marge: I don’t want you driving around in a car you built yourself. *Rolls-Royce employees when the company first started out: I’m about to end this woman’s whole career.*
You know there was a period of time in the simpsons where barney stayed sober for a few years, so it just shows that he can stay off it if he just tries.
I'm thinking it'd make more sense for Moe to insist that they all get a cab ride home together, it doesn't help his bottom line if one of them isn't drinking.
That’s right. Of course the episode came out several years prior to 9/11. Homer does manage to track down his car, which is parked near the World Trade Centre directly on Ground Zero with its front left wheel clamped and many a parking ticket to its name. After briefly leaving the car again to use the toilet, Home is issued another fine for not attending the vehicle and drives off with the wheel still clamped, damaging the front wing and practically wrecks the whole car trying to remove the clamp with a jackhammer.
Anyone noticed how Homer made the last draw, reaching for the last egg which clearly wasn't the black one and still breathed a sigh of relief? First time I noticed that and I've watched this episode like 10 times.
Believe it or not, it doesn't surprise me that the rats are so obedient. Rats can actually form bonds with others, and once they do, they can display a level of devotion comparable to a domestic dog.
I love New York. Lived in the borough of Queens. Have wonderful childhood memories. But being a Californian and with my love for Homer, and without any real reason, I agree with Homer's sentiments on New York being a hell hole 😄
@@jackwisniewski3859 It would've been better if it showed Barney drinking with and having the time of his life with everyone there, including with the Duffman and those cheerleaders there, and where Barney having to be sober and the designated driver, would've been for another night. Admit it, it was a psychological tease for us the viewers to see that Barney spent his whole life drinking all the time, flushing his life down the toilet all the time, and then he blew his once in a lifetime opportunity to have major fun with not only everyone there, but also a celebrity and his cheerleaders, where it would've paid off.
That was the worst night Barney to be required to stay sober since the Duffman celebrity with his sexy cheerleaders arrived and he was going to get drunk in front of them with them and have a great time with them and all. It was the one time for Barney's drunkenness to pay off. Barney should've just been like "Screw it!" and just drank by that point anyway once that Duff Man party got started and got his beer that he won even if it would've meant no one driving home that night.
thats a lot of self control for an alcoholic
is he really an alcoholic if he has self control?
@@ranku9690 Plot twist: Barney was technically never an alcoholic.
He’s probably a social drinker who go’s way over the top
The point is he didn’t give in even when he was presented with that giant mug of beer.
Ranku Yes. It’s not like being an alcoholic means you automatically have no self-control. Everyone has some self-control.
This actually gave me mad respect for Barney for staying sober for his friends
The beat is making the bowl bounce.

He went on a drinking binge for two month right after this

"Duff wholeheartedly supports the designated driver program" lmao
Well thanks to the mother's against democrac- I mean drunk driving association they have to say it.

I have no idea what that means but OKAY! 😁😁😁
@@Mikey-ym6ok What's funny is that one of the higher ups was caught drunk driving
“91% of car accidents in Springfield are caused by you six guys.”
*cheering and high-fiving*
It's really not something to be proud of.
CaptainMarvell92 Returns #thatsthejoke
Best line ever lol
yeah, i know i know
Gotta give Barney credit. He showed extreme self control despite the constant temptation until his role as a designated driver was completed
It still backfired horribly, Barney wouldn't have gone mad and lost Homer's car if he wasn't forced to stop drinking for all those hours
Then he went on a bender that lasted 2 months lmao 😂😂😂
Also he took better care of that car drunk for two months than Homer did sober in one day;
good man
He stole Homers car. He completely failed
Barney has, at various points, been a world-famous singer, an award-winning filmmaker, an astronaut, and a submarine crewman. I'd totally believe he gave a guest lecture at Villanova.
I concur.
TECHNICALLY Barney never went into space, he just aced all of the training for it.
HEY, IT'S DUFF MAN! THE GUY IN A COSTUME THAT CREATES AWARENESS OF DUFF!
..Can you tell that it's Duffman's debut Simpsons appearance? Lmao.
All: "Evening Moe!"
Barney: "Morning Moe!"
Barney is like a bat.
CaptainMarvell92 Returns no the joke is that Barney lives at moe.
i didnt catch that at first lol
@@MinscFromBaldursGate92 me
The best line is Lenny saying “Man I thought that radiation would never end” as he walks in
hey everybody I'm peter pantsless🤣

Duffman's first appearance on the show.
Had no idea, definitely the first?
Sokman00 I’m pretty sure it wasn’t this episode was in s9 and he was in it before that
Sokman00 I stand corrected it was in fact his first appearance my apologies
0:08 It's actually really nice of Moe to let the mice hang out and have shelter
well bart's factory fell over.
@@TheWeepingDalek Exactly what I was thinking. Good on Moe for taking them in.
Those are RATS.
"The guy in a costume that creates awareness of Duff!" ha ha! I've always loved that line! One of Lenny's best!
so true, lenny is so damn dry and off beat.

That's what I felt when it first aired in the 90s
I guess if you dunno who duff man was
It's a party Melissa. Doesn't have to make sense.
No comma
You clearly never watched the Simpsons. Duff man's music is well known
"just slide it under the door" LOL
Rats sliding under the door
Yehass...ticktick...toMORROW!
"here comes the evening rush" - same customers come in lol
We'll choose the same way they choose the pope.
**WHEEZE**
got to remember that line
Nothing will ever be as good as Simpsons back in the day
This was like The Simpsons Silver Age, when it was at least tolerable but the quality was slowly changing.
No doubt about that
Probably one of the best episodes EVER.
yeah being the designated driver sucks🤣
"Shut up! It's my car and I say were going tot he lost city of gold.."
Michael Nellen "Good night Barney. Don't forget to bring back my car back tomorrow...just slide it under the door."
Yaaaaas tick tick tomorrow.
*Quote from the clip*
Yaaaaas tick tick tomorrow.
@@michaelnellen4003 we watched the same video.
Despite Duffman's presence, Barney pulled through. He has willpower when he wants to
Despite being mostly displayed as a drunk the Simpsons has often shown that Barney is actually quite competent and intelligent.
@@TheDutchGhost, that is what makes him a pretty sad character. He was shown to be very talented and capable of great things when sober. But his alcohol addiction always sends him spiraling back.

"Do you have anything to drink?"
"Mountain dew or crab juice"
"eeeewwwww oh god! I'll take a crab juice"
I'd definitely take a crab juice over a Diet Mountain Dew, that's for sure.
@@chartabona mountain dew is not that bad. Dr pepper on the other hand...
I wonder if the Mountain Dew reference was changed for any foreign dubs of this episode?
@@adultmoshifan87 He says "sodovka" (soda) in Czech version.
I love how Barney is so addicted to Moe’s beer that he seemingly lives in the tavern.
He pretty much does lol
He actually lives ABOVE Moe’s!
Morning Jules.
dats da joooke
It's not just Moe's beer it's all beer
Homer riding away on that scooter had me dying😂😂😂
I love how everyone walks through Moe’s door at the moment the steam whistle sounds.
"We choose the same way they pick the Pope. Everyone reach in and draw a pickled egg."
Abemus papa Barney.
Love Duffman!
but PROTOOOOOOOOO
OHHHH YEAH!!!
Love uninspired comments from verified youtubers only to plug their channel.
@Andy
You must be a fun guy.
I like how this video is called "Peter Pantless" when that's literally 2 seconds of a throw away joke in the middle of the video.
Its the best part
Nah nah nah, the best part is immediately after @1:15
Homer: Whew!
Lenny: Whew!
Carl: Ah.
Larry: Whew!
Sam: Oh!
Barney: NOOOOOOOO!!!!
Homer: You got the black one.
Poor Barney.... the horror!!!!
Who ever gets the black egg
Goes to the anime convention with me
Homer: whew
Lenny: whew
Carl: ah
Larry: whew
Sam: oh
Barney: NOOOOOOO!!!!!
Homer: you got the black one
@WonderLady
Weeb.
I always love Lenny’s delayed reaction to Duff Man’s arrival.
Homer: " You got the black one ".
pretty impressive that barney of all people had that much self control until he was no longer the driver for his drunk friends
Laughed so much at the "Peter Pantsless" bit, I spilt a cup of tea.
that's great martin. gotta keep up karate practice somehow...
oops; I thought that said "split"
Well, well, well Soko... We met again!
mule
I know you shouldn't cry about spilled tea.. but it's just so sad
I just stared blankly and wrote. LOL🤣
This whole clip is funny but the funniest part was when homer went to go pick up his kids on a razor scooter😂😂😂😂
I beg to differ. It was Homer's gratuitous "You got the black one" after Barney reveals his egg.
“Nothing good has ever come out of New York”. Truer words have never been spoken before :D
4:04 Marge: I don’t want you driving around in a car you built yourself.

This the infamous Twin Towers episode. You will never see it on TV again
You know there was a period of time in the simpsons where barney stayed sober for a few years, so it just shows that he can stay off it if he just tries.
Couldnt barney have just got a taxi for the guys?
Taxis are dummmmy expensive
@@eliasakkerman4597 Barney does have money though. He makes his money being a guinea pig for various experiments :)

Bottomless beer mug. It would make sense to spend $20 on cab ride. The beer was worth 1000s of dollars.
The episode is "Homer vs The City of New York"
Duh
the DelSter W
That’s right. Of course the episode came out several years prior to 9/11.

Anyone noticed how Homer made the last draw, reaching for the last egg which clearly wasn't the black one and still breathed a sigh of relief? First time I noticed that and I've watched this episode like 10 times.
There was no way to know it wasn't the black one, presumably the liquid it was in concealed what color they actually we're.
Hey its duffman! The guy in a costume who creates awareness of duff! - underrated Lenny quote
Homer's makeshift car is hilarious on sight
Oh no...oh no...not tonight...NOT TONIGHTTTTT!
ARE YOU READY.....TO......GET.....DUFFED!!!!
Got to love Barney's thousand yard stare. O_O He's seen too much sobriety and self restraint during his time, man...
3:06 Sounds like Yoda
91% of traffic accidents from 6 guys that’s a lot
Damn Barney just call a cab
"my vehicle"
i can share that response when i heard my stolen car was found located too
"Hey, its Duffman! The guy in the costume who creates awareness of Duff."
They have Mountain Dew and crab juice.
and Khlav Kalash
Ewwwww! Ack! Oh that's just awful... I'll take a crab juice.
The irony here us that Homer is the one responsible for Barney being an alcoholic.
Well to be fair, if one beer ruined his life, than he would’ve become an alcoholic anyway
@@rajansekhar3750 unless he would have been an absolutist

Before Uber, Barney had to be a designated driver
Cabs existed
I don't know how big Springfield is, but cabs need to be in a pretty sizeable city to make sense. Also the plot demanded Barney to drive.

Aww, Barney is a good friend.
Can't get enough of that wonderful Duff
I take it Moe doesn't serve soft drinks.
Oh and Barney's reaction when he gets the black egg is awesome!
He got the black one.
It always cracks me up that Moe apparently thinks they choose the Pope by drawing pickled eggs.
I’ve been this drunk.
Did you find the losr city of gold?
@@davidhonez8859 He did, and then he slid it under the door.

1 night without beer and he ends up on a 2-month binge.
Gotta give Bernie credit for being so disciplined.....
2:32
Barney looks out of his mind on stimulants
You had to admire Barney's willpower during that night, specially knowing how much he like beer
Until he disappeared with Homer’s car 😂

Sees The Black Egg. "Nooooooooooo!!!". Homer "You Got The Black One.
The other guy's are OK
Barney - got snapped by Thanos
As a kid, I thought that beer looked soooooo good.
Barney should have just had some crab juice that night.
lmao homer has a matress on wheels with flashlights taped hahahahah
This is my favourite episode
1:21 Oh Yeah - Yello
2:39, Who else noticed Barney trying to sip a little beer off his lips
"I'm the designated driver"
That's when you say "cabs for everyone"
Alright, Barney, remember to bring back my car tomorrow back.
Just slide it under the door.
Awesome episode!
