The Best of Bart Simpson's Chalkboard Writings

If you've ever noticed, when Bart Simpson is writing something 100,000 times on the chalkboard as a punishment in the opening sequence of the Simpsons, he is always writing something different -- and often quite hilarious. These are the collected writings of Bart Simpson from the chalkboard exercises during the opening credits:

  • I will not carve gods.
  • I will not aim for the head.
  • I will not barf unless I'm sick.
  • I will not expose the ignorance of the faculty.
  • I saw nothing unusual in the teacher's lounge.
  • I will not conduct my own fire drills.
  • Funny noises are not funny.
  • I will not fake seizures.
  • This punishment is not boring and pointless.
  • I will not defame New Orleans.
  • I will not prescribe medication.
  • I will not bring sheep to class.
  • A burp is not an answer.
  • I will not sell miracle cures.
  • I will return the seeing-eye dog.
  • I do not have diplomatic immunity.
  • I will not charge admission to the bathroom.
  • I am not authorized to fire substitute teachers.
  • My homework was not stolen by a one-armed man.
  • I am not deliciously saucy.
  • Organ transplants are best left to professionals.
  • I will not celebrate meaningless milestones.
  • I will not instigate revolution.
  • They are laughing at me, not with me.
  • I will not hide behind the Fifth Amendment.
  • I will not torment the emotionally frail.
