We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. 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 call Shelbyville in those days, so I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. So, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on ‘em. Give me five bees for a quarter you’d say. Now where were we? Oh yeah! The important thing was 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 was those big yellow ones.
Help out a well-meaning antipodean here. Is it because Missouri is one of the oldest, and not recognising it would be particularly dumb or random??
I've already tried tipofmytongue for this. I can hear Grampa saying it in my head. I'm 95% certain it isn't from any episode; maybe a game?
"In my day we didn't HAVE any ghosts because NO ONE WAS DEEEEEEAAAAAAD!"
...this has been bothering me for years, if anyone can help I'd be very grateful.

I like when they're burning Skinner at the stake for saying the earth revolves around the sun. "Burn him!" gets picture taken "You've stolen my soul!"
And he will be reminiscing about how he almost got Osama bin Laden, but then junior recruit Seymour Skinner was operating the support drone and blow the whole operation because his mother FaceTimed him at the wrong moment.
Because he said he was in the angry mob that wanted to kill Homer
