240 at 6 feet? That's only overweight as opposed to obese

He's only 21. He was born on December 56th, 2005.
TheFastpaws
The rework put him as a millennial now. Which is strange really.
Bundalicious79
Almost old enough to be POTUSst
ISayShenanigans
If the Simpsons aged in real life.
Whoisthisdoctorwho2000
Actually one of the peculiarities of Springfield is that they use the "normal" system of recording dates.... sobhis birthday is actually in mid December
cjandstuff
Remember when 240 lbs at 6' tall was comically obese?
MissDameaner
He should be a grandfather now with teen or grown grandkids

When Homer's weigh is your goal weight ( I'm 6'2)

There was a recent episode where, I think Abe, started a sentence with something like "You know, back in the 30s...or 50s...or whatever makes sense these days.."

You guys have all missed something simple, state IDs have the state listed BIG on them not the city.. He's from Springfield, Springfield. There's a state called Springfield in this universe.
hwatL4bloopy
It is likely somewhere by a great lake, and based on the zip code the landmass is in the Michigan area. As the state is somehow both land locked and accessible for the Navy.
Whatwhatsomethingbutt
It looks like he got his license on 7/27/92 but it expires on his birthday. The implication being he drove around on an expired license for two and a half months.
Nukls
damn dude.. retire already
Pphunk77
D’OOOHHH!!
Ivalicenyan
Simpsons has a rotating timeline. So he's almost always perpetually 38-39.

Hair: None? HAIR: NONE? What are those two things on top of his head?!?!?

OMG! I'm Homer Simpson!

Happy birthday!
GravyEducation
Damn if he's gonna retire, the town won't have that green glow we all love.
idiotsonfire
He's 6' and TWO FORTY and he has a stomach that size? Press X to doubt, holy shit, he needs to be closer to 300.
unluckyandbored
I'm 6'1" and 240 and nowhere near as fat as Homer is..
Bladedrummer
It's probably his old weight. They rarely update that info on your documents.

In 13 years, he'll be as old as Abe was in the first season of the show.
poscduke
When the Simpsons started in 1989 I was younger than Bart and now I'm about to be older than Homer
iConfirmAnythingAndEverything
Older than homer would be if he aged normally? Or older than homer in season 1?
poscduke
Older than homer in season 1 when he was (he's 39 apparently)
iConfirmAnythingAndEverything
That makes sense
Murdercorpse
Happy 71st birthday!
Atomic2
Kids BORN in 1989 are going to be older than Homer soon.

Becoming 83? Given family history, no it probably won't.
Affray
gonzar09
Ahh, yes... Springfieed, NT. Lovely Smarch weather there. Also, that ZIP code is for Kalamazoo, MI.
wearecometooutliveourbrains
I always assumed it was in Michigan because in an early episode Bart is trying to save money and he returns a single bottle to the Kwik-E-Mart. Apu asks if he wants to put it towards candy (or something like that, my memory is fuzzy), and Bart responds saying no he will take the dime.

That's because home is actually 17 in this image and this is his fake ID to get into the bars.

Shouldn't it say "Brian McGee?"

I totally forgot about that!
rhitard
It's a perfectly cromulent ZIP code

SPRINGFIELD, NORTHEN TERRITORY. Although we use 4 digital post codes here so...

NT = Northwest Territories, Canada 🇨🇦

if I'm not mistaken, NT would be Nunavut, NWT would be Northwest Territories

You are mistaken.

Thank for the correction :)
CommunCreator
Nunavut is NU. NT would be Northern Territory, in Australia, so somewhere between Darwin and Alice Springs
atomicgiant
good to know, thank you!

The joke with the Simpsons is that Springfield is not in a particular state.
Deoxyribonucleicacidwashedgenes
gonzar09
One episode had them standing in 5 states holding hands, something that doesn't exist IRL (closest is 4). The movie had Ned saying that Springfield borders Nevada, Kentucky, Ohio, and Maine, a geographic impossibility (although Ohio does share a border with Kentucky). It's also a supposedly landlocked town, yet in some episodes they clearly have a coastline for an ocean.
Zalm
Springfield, Oregon, borders Nevada, Springfield, Massachusetts, borders Maine. Springfield Indiana borders both Ohio and Kentucky AND has a shoreline on the Great lakes. Springfield for the Simpsons is a quantum superposition that is locked into whatever place is the most convenient for plot purposes.
dtallen243
There's also Springfield Ohio
Zalm
and obviously Springfield Illinois, but thats my point. Springfield appears wherever its necessary to ensure it gets its story. But generally, its based off Springfield Oregon.
Here is a pretty thorough breakdown of Springfield's location in the US. Highest contender is actually Illinois. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2DHyimmSCY
Zalm
I think the joke has always been that Springfield exists in whatever real place that a Springfield actually exists. Like there are something like a dozen different Springfields across the US, and Simpsons takes place in whichever one is most plot convenient at the time. It's likely Ned references different states that border a state that has a Springfield in it.
GreaseMonkeyOfLove
6’ and 240lbs?? And they still make fat jokes? I’m 6’1” and havent been 240 since high school!
DrankTooMuchMead
Are you me? I mean did i write this last night while drunk?
MenloPart
I'm 6'2" and weighed 267 at the hospital yesterday.
Mom had surgery this morning and it went well.
She asked me to stop by her favorite Chinese restaurant and I ordered grilled chicken and vegetables.
It was swimming in oil.
I'm trying to be healthy! :)
TheobromineAddict
I was at 6'1" and 240 lbs last year, and I assure you 240 is fat for most people.
HelpfulCorn
It's obese, to be specific
TheobromineAddict
Medically specific, yes.
JusticePhrall
6' and 240 sounds like our president's specs in his fitter and trimmer Home Alone 2 days.
ZenMonkey48
Honestly it may have been his HS weight and he never bothered to update it.
Affray
He was pretty think in high school if I'm remembering my Simpsons correctly.
smashpro1
Yeah. Barney was jealous of how much Homer could eat without gaining any weight.
gablestout
He was pretty normal in high school. The weight came later
textilelover
It really depends on your build. My husband is (was, thank you drunk driver shithead) a runner and a fencer and he's at a good weight around 190 at 6'2". We have another friend who's the same height and 220 is good for him.
Darkspire
I'm sorry. Drunk drivers are the fuckin worst. They need real consequences.
textilelover
It was especially awful as the guy was driving on a suspended license (for DUI) in his sister's car with no insurance. I hope he dies a particularly horrible death.
Darkspire
Insanity. Did he even get charged with anything? Me too, hopefully a tree, and lets say there's a fire, and the car is too twisted up to escape from.
textilelover
He did. He spent 6 months in jail. Which is less time than my husband spent in ICU learning how to walk and talk again. Fire is good.
