Thinking man's violin
Fromt the Simpsons
Krusty: My little girl's sharp as a tack. I tried the "got your nose" bit on her, didn't fool her or a second!
Homer: My uncle still has my nose.
Krusty: Now look, Sophie, I know you think your daddy's perfect...
Sophie: No, I don't.
Krusty:...but I did a bad thing. I lost your violin in a poker game.
Sophie: You what?!
Krusty: But, don't worry! I got you an even better one!
Sophie: This is a ukulele.
Krusty: Yeah, the thinking man's violin!

Sophie: But it sounds shit dad
Krusty: Who the hell asked you anyway, you little…. (aims a blow at Sophie)
Sophie: (Ducking) You just play this thing (holding up the Uke) to avoid revealing your self as a feeling and fragile human being. You have always used humour to cover your true self. You are embarrassed by the violin because it can weep or sing with joy while this travesty of an instrument can only tell jokes and smutty ones at that.
Krusty: (with fingers in ears – singing) I was standing by a lamppost, on the corner of the street…
Sophie: You make me sick.
Krusty: Oh me oh my… When I’m cleaning windows…
Sophie: Didn’t your father want you to become a rabbi like him? This is how you cover your shame… your fig leaf… now I am ashamed too… your not my father.
Krusty: (weeping) With my little stick of Blackpool rock….
Homer: Mmmmmm Rock
