“No! My spine-o-cylinder! They’ll pay for what they did to my can!” “Forget it Homer, it’s chiro town.”

Wow, it's like we saw the same clip

Seriously? From all the amazing lines in this clip you chose that one??

@@drwhofan1049 think about the irony

Cracks you up... like a can? 😂

FlameAdder 😒

Wait a minute no investor goes that low lol

"They'll *pay* for what they did to my can!"

Tomedy they’re chiropractors!

Probably just skeleton models.

simple but fantastic joke

Like an MK Fatality.

Probably their ex patients spinal columns. After they drop dead suddenly.

Patent Pending 😁

yes

yes good job we all saw the same video

It feels a little better

There we go

*craaack*

My brother used to always day this when we were younger and I just now see where he heard it

@Christopher Payne crying with laughter.

3, 4, see you in court

5,6, Karen please give me my kids

Fine, I won't.

Grand

So that's what he says, was wondering what he said haha! Thought it was meneers 🤣

That's the first lesson in 'chiropractor school'.

He smiled bc he knew he was gonna get a lot of money

I’m a Doctor of Chiropractic and that line made me laugh so hard. So funny.

On one hand I’m grateful I can feel. On the other hand life was so much simpler when I was cold and lifeless.

Just pound back a bunch of pills and booze. Worked for me. Temporarily.

@@Kirokill1 What changed?

Max Power I went through my first episode of depression.

@@squamish4244 That's all you ever really get in life is a temporary respite. You're ahead of the game, don't let anyone tell you otherwise...

Does he know he scams?

Haytham Kerans it ain’t no scam gonstead chiropractors are the real deal

Chiropractors only operate in areas where vulnerable idiots will pay for them to fuck up their bodies...like California.

@@johndawhale3197 yeah when you throw your back out you won't be saying that .

@@WarOfRage Here in the UK we get free healthcare...

it was pretty ironic lol probably my favorite line lol

One of the greatest lines 🙏

😭😭😭😭😭 I've been laughing at this line ever since this episode first aired many years ago.

Saaaame!!!!!

Did the doctor say one two better not sue. If he didn't I'm sure you can get money back

​@@jamesbraun9842 🤣🤣🤣

Chiro is entirely pseudo and unproven. The cracks you hear are not bone but muscle stretch usually and its usually a 16 minute fix before you fall back into the problem. Just stretch and work out, you ll achieve better results

​@@Captain_Cinnamonthere are legit ones that help you do excercises and stuff after an injury

(From a distance) D'ohh!

"and we have plenty more on Homer Simpson"

Did you know he likes to eat out of the Flanders garbage?

Jonathan Gonzales I have a problem

@@steelydanlover1972pseudoscience? You couldn't be more wrong

I'm not a native speaker, so could someone explain me what's meant with ciro-town? I guess it's a mix of chiropractor and something else.

It's a reference to the movie Chinatown.

@@MinscFromBaldursGate92 thanks ^^

Yep, it was a line from the movie “Chinatown.” They did this a couple of times on the Simpsons.

@Closed Since nobody actually answered "what's meant" by it, (only mentioning the reference) i'll actually explain. It's about turf. You put "town" after anything to say that's what/who's town it is. This was Moe saying, let it go, this is their town. (the chiropractors town. chiro for short) You could think of it today with Taxis vs Ubers. Has NYC been taken over by the Uber business? This is Uber town. (or city in that case. lol) And to explain why it's a reference. Saying "(some)-town" isn't a reference. This was only a reference to the movie "Chinatown" because of the line "Forget it, Homer. It's Chirotown." (original "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.") They of course set the scene similar also. On the street at night, ending with Noir music. But that's just bonus reference. It's also possible they could've never seen the movie (or it never existed) and still had Moe say that same line. But of course the rest of the scene confirms that it is a reference. If it didn't exist, or you never saw that movie before then (me, still) you can still understand what Moe meant by "Chirotown" the same way you'd understand the meaning of "Chinatown". You just wouldn't know it was a reference to something you don't know about. Sorry for the in-depth article 9 months late when it's irrelevant to you. But hopefully that clears it all up. lol

Diego D I know; it’s almost like the entire premise of the episode, was specifically designed, just so they could end on that reference... ...I know that probably isn’t the case, but I’d be absolutely fine if it was haha.

Same 😂😂😂

Does the trash can or any round object like that actual work if someone falls on it like homer did?

I’m a unlicensed massage therapist don’t tell the government

Since your a licensed massage therapist, did Homer make Lenny’s Sciatica worse then?

So which kind are you? The one who scam people out of money, or the one who fronts a prostitution ring ?

Billy Seneczy 😂👌

hahahahahaha

Stealing this line super hard

The frikin best!!! Lol

Forget it, Chase. It's Chiro-town...

If you read that without any context it would sound so wrong.

“I thought it might. Now I’ll need to see you three times a week for, many years.”

Is your friend Lenny?

Pinched the nerve off lol

*They had their knee out of alignment and went to chiropractor* There's the problem right there - many chiropractors describe themselves as "primary care" providers based on pseudoscientific principles, when their profession only helps (and very incidentally) with certain types of back pain. Methinks someone should have visited their GP or a physiotherapist.

@@rethguals Yeah, I've had chiropractors that were actually good. When I got an x ray of my neck, it also caught part of my jaw where I could see my wisdom teeth impacted. Instead of making an opinion, he just said "probably should see a dentist." Lol

Was he advised to see the chiropractor on a weekly basis where cracking the back gave some temporary relief but ultimately achieving nothing, which resulted in mounting chiropractor fees over the long term, making the chiropractor rich by essentially curing nothing?

,,,,,,,

ryan121995 no

2 years ago my car was hit in the back. My baxk has been fucked since then. My medicaid dont cover a chiropractor. God i wish I knew Homer.

Nope, I don’t have stupid thoughts like that.

Not back, but neck.

@@alexserrano6843 stretch bro, stretch your back almost as much as they stretched jeffery epsteins neck when he didnt commit suicide.

He invented the Chirp Wheel.

nö

Think about iiit! *shakes fist*

I think that is the Patent process

There’s more money to be made treating people for back problems rather than curing them.

Patent pending

​@@rckblzr I mean u can charge for much much more and get away with it, while both making as much or even more money, and still curing people. Idk why no one really thinks of it, like u can either sell 20$ pills a day for the last 5 years of someone's life and make 36,500$ or sell a 45,000$ treatment that cures the Illness, patent it, and get an extreme level of customers rushing first thing to save their lives, for the next couple years until the patent expires, while also advertising tf out of ur brand. Then even when the patent expires, your brand is gonna be so out there, and known, that it'll be the only brand capable of surviving while the name also becomes synonymous with the treatment. Like how some people call cereal cheerios, or tissue paper cleanex, but at a more extreme level

Should have sold the patent or idea to them so they could just bury it and keep the status quo.

You wanna try that quote again?

wtf?

@@arachnidman8eyes The Joke -------------------- Your Head

No i got the joke, it could have said cured my Back problems... You know.. work smarter and harder.

@@arachnidman8eyes you didn't get it

LOL!!!!!

Can you explain

@@jasonbaylor9865 The insinuation is that Moe caught his father having an illicit affair with the mailman, which traumatised him as a child and has left him with unresolved crippling mental issues as an adult. However, even now as an adult, Moe has not fully realised that his father was in actual fact having a sexual affair with the mailman. The irony in the joke is that Moe's father did not give him any affection, but was willing to abundantly and cheaply share his affections with strangers. It is a long-running joke in the Simpsons that Moe's character is sad, lonely, and has an extremely broken past.

@@Bennevisie gotcha. Would've caught it more easily if it was his mom having an affair with the mailman but makes sense

Rock Man my mom went to a chiropractor and he fixed her back.

America... Where it is a rich privilege to simple be healthy...

Lol, the American healthcare system is amusing to me.

Here in my country surgery is free but people still choose chiropractors because surgery implies a lot more preparation, pain, anesthesia, painkillers, recovery, stitches..

Just get yourself a trashcan too. Problem solved...

Not that subtle and people commented on it but yes, funny and with a point

The muscles that are going to keep a back in good shape are the core muscles, mostly around the front of your abdomen. The back has seriously little space for muscles strong enough to keep you upright. It's like people keeping talking about 'strong wrists' when there's next to nothing in a wrist but tendons, ligaments and blood vessels.

​@@charlieross-BRM depending on the person there either may be some muscles or a LOT of fat *cough**cough* Americans *cough**cough* (its funny bc they have shit expensive healthcare when they're the ones who need it the most)

@@charlieross-BRM yeah that's why they give you exercises for your core and legs.

We don't actually zap eyes m. Now you're going to hear a quick zapping sound.

Yeah, but while exaggerated, the "I'll need to see you three times a week for....many years" point isn't completely incorrect lol

@FuckYouAllToPieces you don't need to go to a chiropractor to be conscious of your posture, and the idea that it makes you taller is absurd. You also can hang upside down for a few minutes and become a half inch taller for a few hous

​@FuckYouAllToPieces Elderly people are typically hunched over because of degenerative spinal changes predominantly accentuated by a varying degree of bone density loss. It's not usually as a result of posture but more from a lack of activity in later life.

@@bencarruthers6321 Exactly. Age-related sarcopenia (muscle atrophy) also plays a part in it, as older people literally don't have the muscle strength to carry themselves upright. Physically inactive people can lose as much as 3% to 5% of their muscle mass each decade after age 30, which - when you added up - means an 80 year old person who has been physically inactive (e.g. not participating in strength or resistance training) for 50 years could lose as much as a quarter of their muscle mass. It has little to do with walking around with poor posture for years.

@FuckYouAllToPieces Posture is a byproduct of healthy movement patterns and I say that as a final year chiropractic student

Patent pending!

But let me guess: a couple of Chiropractors came to your house, took those objects away, and smashed them up like they work for Al Capone, correct?

pretty much.

Hang from a bar or something and relax your muscles especially in your back and shoulders. Youre welcome
