I prefer beige (I think the "beige" is more of a custard or orange-type color desu)

In the classic seasons, beige/orange was actually the color used for the Simpsons' house. Then, around the Scully era (seasons 9-12), it became more pinkish looking (as a whole, the animation began looking cruder, stiffer, more flouresenctly-colored around season 10 for some reason). This continued into the early Jean era.

Then, it appears that around the HD switch in season 20, they restored the original orange color to the house.

That's not even remotely beige. The English language has 4000 different colour words and you picked "beige" to describe that? Did your mother lock you in a room and deprive you of stimulation for the first 18 years of your life? Are you just now learning the non-primary colours? What the fuck is wrong with you? Tan, apricot, salmon, khaki, peru, chestnut -- ALL THESE COLOURS AT YOUR DISPOSAL AND YOU CHOOSE "BEIGE". WHY DO YOU CONSTANTLY DISAPPOINT EVERYONE WHO'S EVER LOVED YOU WITH YOUR LACK OF CREATIVITY.

Downstairs. The other one's the main stairs to the 2nd floor.

>a third bathroom behind the kitchen

News to me.

>>87805033
It'd be pretty dumb if they only had bathrooms upstairs.

>>87804926
Is there a door in the kitchen that leads to the basement or am I not remembering properly?

>>87805033
Most 2 stories have a bathroom a floor.

>>87805033
I was thinking it was more of a laundry room, or just a shitter, seems too small to be a full-fledged bathroom.

>>87805070
Only time I remember that being the case was that treehouse of horror segment when homer made a time machine out of the toaster.

>>87804926
>>87805070
In the episode Bart the Mother, the door next to the front stairs leads to a basement, when it's usually a closet in other episodes.

However, it should be noted that the house's layout changes from episode to episode for the sake of a one-off joke (in this case, the joke was Homer falling down the stairs)

>>87805070
I remember it being under the stairs that go upstairs. Pretty sure that's how it is in the beer baron episode at least.

>>87805097
Their laundry machines have been established as being in the basement, though.

And it probably only has a toilet and a sink. No shower/bath

I just realized something: why does the car hole have a window?

>>87805138
>Their laundry machines have been established as being in the basement, though.
Oh yeah that's right.

>>87804586
Didn't they actually build a Simpsons house and give it away in some sweepstakes?

The garage? Lots of garages have an attic in the US, that used to be the place where the stereotypical 28-year-old-son-who-won't-move-out would establish their lair before basements took that role.

>>87805033
Isn't that the one where Homer would consummate his tulip-eating fetish?

I've always like the house in Simpsons. Pretty distinctive, compared to most other cartoon houses.

>>87805279
Where is the rumpus room?

>>87805302

>>87802825

>>87805206
Does the Simpson's car hole look like it's big enough for an attic to you?

>>87805145
So you can have light

>>87805033
Wait... I remember one episode they're all waiting to use the bathroom near Bart's room... But Marge and Homer have their own?
They really do forget rooms when the plot needs them to...

>>87805145
so you can see the car inside, obviously

>>87805145

>car hole

That has to be one of the best "I right now don't have the word for the thing so I have to circumvent it" descriptions I ever heard.
Also why shouldn't the car hole have a little light in it? Sure the car doesn't need that but sometimes there go people in there so why without lighting always have it be pitch black?

Its Paralympic gold!

>>87805412
No house map can ever be accurate because of how often they change it. I remember multiple episodes where the kitchen would lead directly to the basement.

>>87801522

Left-side design/"feel" with right-side colors.

God, remember when animation was allowed to look a little "imperfect"?

>>87805370
Yeah, just a small one where you store shit, which is what most garage attics look like.

>>87804453
>>87805033
This is something else.

The Simpsons house has the following:

>1 full bath
>2 half baths
>large kitchen with breakfast nook
>living room
>parlour
>vestibule
>family room
>two-car garage with attic
>4 bedrooms

Depending on the location, this house is either semi-expensive to friggin expense.

In the real-world, a nuclear safety inspector could easily hit the $80,000 to $100,000+ mark depending on experience, location, and education.

In the Simpsons however, Homer only makes around $25,000 per year.

>>87806167
I don't understand. In America that's just a regular house, give or take a bedroom. Wealthier people just have more square footage and poorer people live in trailers or apartments.

>>87806167
>>87806362
Recently I did a bit of contract work on a house that's very, very similar in size, maybe even a little smaller. It was being sold for 1.25 million.

What the fuck housing market did my generation miss out on where Homer gets to live in a goddamn mansion on 25k a year? Fucking baby boomers, I'd gladly gut the lot of them.

>>87801522

>>87804453

>>87806512
It's pretty easy to find homes like that for less than half a million. It's a two story, four bedroom, two bath with a two car garage, basement and fairly small yard. You're going to be heavily dependent on location though. You've also got to keep in mind that going by the early flashback episodes the house is something like forty years old.

>>87805206
>The garage?
The GARAGE? Hey fellas, the GARAGE. Well ooh la ti da Mr. French Man.

>>87806308
It's a Simpsons joke. Moe calls garages car holes.

IIRC Grandpa sold his house so Homer could make the down payment. (Not the farm, the house he had in Springfield while Homer was in college)

The bathroom layout in general makes no sense. Generally you want the bathrooms to all be near each other, including across floors, same with laundry room and kitchen to a certain extent. But their bathrooms and kitchen are all spread out, the plumming would be a huge nightmare.

>>87809757
Then again, it is Springfield. Chances are that home building firms there aren't the brightest.

>>87805033
>>87805299
It's interesting, the ground floor is generally very consistent, aside from basement enterence, but the second floor seems to be all over the place.

And I mean, in the show, I can't make a mental map of the upstairs, but I can downstairs, so I'm not surprised.

>>87809910
On the ground floor, you generally have people moving room to room in scenes.

There's little reason to have the characters going from bedroom to bedroom.

At least 2x they used the gag of having Bart or Lisa punch through the wall behind Marge and Homer's bed even though it's normally an outer wall.

>>87809757
I know. My kitchen sink and upstairs bathroom are directly above the washer/dryer and hot water heater.

>>87804453

It's sad that the house alone shows how dated the Simpsons is. No family can afford a house like this on one income anymore

>>87805033

>Bart's room is closest to the bathroom so that in his teenage years it's easy for him to creep to the toilet in the dead of night to flush his cum soaked tissues

Homer and Marge know what's up

>>87810159
I'm not sure they could have in 1990 anyway, but cartoons aren't supposed to make sense. You know, they're just a bunch of hilarious stuff like people getting hurt and stuff.

>>87806512
>>87806362

Homer didn't buy the house. Grandpa won it on a gameshow

>>87810225

Simpsons started in 1989. Assuming they bought the house before Bart was born they got in in the late 70's

>>87805070
The only time I've seen that is the Treehouse of Horror

In the Beer Baron and Bart the Mother episodes, the door in the hallway which is usually shown as a closet leads to the basment.

>>87810333
Didn't you ever watch the flashback episodes? They had an apartment and bought the house shortly before Lisa was born.

>>87804453
Did they actually ever even show the rec room outside of Three Men and a Comic Book?

>>87810365

Ah yeah that's right. All I can remember is Bart spinning on a washing line

Speaking of that, according to the show's original timeline, Bart was born in 1981

Is he a Gen Xer or is he a filthy Millennial?

>>87810445
I'd say someone born in 1981 is an early Millenial.

>>87810216
>not just smearing your cum all over your body and washing it off in the morning

>>87810445

GenX. I think even the broadest range for Millennial puts the start at 85

>>87810695
Actually, no it doesn't
>Authors William Strauss and Neil Howe are widely credited with naming the Millennials.[1] They coined the term in 1987, around the time children born in 1982 were entering preschool, and the media were first identifying their prospective link to the new millennium as the high school graduating class of 2000.[2] They wrote about the cohort in their books Generations: The History of America's Future, 1584 to 2069 (1991)[3] and Millennials Rising: The Next Great Generation (2000).[2]

But idk, maybe the mid 80s is a more appropriate starting date for Millennials than the commonly-used early 80s. Most people I know who were born in the early 80s consider themselves Gen X all the way.

>>87811657
I agree, man. I hate the HD animation so much. It's so completely stiff and lifeless. Just like the writing, voice acting, and practically everything else about Zombie Simpsons.

>>87803319
The whole exercise is questionable due to the sheer variety and scale of development. It's lead to there being several renaissance-esque periods being identified going back centuries in medieval Europe. In addition, many things were limited geographically; Ireland was noted for being particularly resistant to change with mercenaries being noted for their archaic and savage style of dress and fighting up until the 18th century.

Period delineations really only work when focusing on specific pin-point areas of limited range of study (arbitrarily or naturally decided) or for general organization.

>>87805069
One bathroom a house is fine as long as you have more than one toilet elsewhere. Ideally the toilet shouldn't even be in the bathroom.

>>87813154
Mos euro houses have one bathroom (also, generally smaller). Do you get multiple half-bath/bathrooms in North American houses?

>>87813273
I'm British, and thanks to growing up in Army accommodation have mostly lived in older houses where one typically has a bathroom with just a bath and a sink in it, then two to three toilets elsewhere in the house (typically one on the first floor, then the others on the second floor.

However, I did once live in this awful new build house for a few months that had, I kid you not, four bathroom/shower rooms in it. It was so poorly laid out and built in an American style, albeit compact.

>>87813318
>Spilt a bathroom via a partition with a toilet on one side and a sink and bathroom on the other

I will never understand this.

Rendering of left, with colours of right.

>>87813343
Keeps the bathroom from smelling like shit and allows two people to have a bath and shower AND use the toilet without it being awkward.

What's not to like?

>having the toilet in the same space as the shower

>>87810771
I've always though people born in the 80's was called gen Y and people born in the 90's where millennials/gen Z. I would've called Bart gen Y. I'm born in the mid 80's and was told I was gen Y when I grew up in the 90's. Maybe it was just a short lived buzzword.

You'd probably just say Ralph but he sounds like Nelson and the articulation of his voice and words is way off. Is he supposed to be Nelson but they changed the character last second but kept the voice? Is this a different character entirely?

>>87815482
It was probably just supposed to be a generic background character. Nelson was already an established character when this episode was made. Ralph didn't become a real character until season 4 I think.

>>87810159
To be fair, it wasn't possible in the 80s either. The house was supposed to look like something out of a 50s sitcom so this is more like the kind of thing people bought during the post war economic boom. Now that I think about it the only person I know who had two living rooms and a dining Room was my late grandmother.

A house like that today would probably have the garage and basement turned into apartments for extra rental income, especially in a town like Springfield that supposedly has 2 Universities and a Nuclear power station.

>In America that's just a regular house
American here, I never knew anyone with two living rooms

>>87805206

>>87805299

Bart and Lisa share a wall; Homer's window looks out over their front yard and their bathroom window looks out towards the back - it's closest to Flander's house.

American here. My grandparents have a living room and a family room, essentially two living rooms. However they had the benefit of doing so in the post world war 2 boom, and my grandpa did a lot of the work himself. He was a hobbyist carpenter and a professional electrician. May have had help from his brother-in-law, who was in the battle of the bulge.

Remember how in "Road Rage" the house was straight up red?

It was also pink in the GBA version.

>>87814681
Gen y and z were placeholders until a consensus could be reached about exactly how horrible the new generation is.

>>87816813
Well we had a formal living room with couch, arm chairs, fireplace, piano, and then a family room with the tv and a couch and love seat and shit, which is a similar setup. But then, we had a weird, three floor house on the side of the hill, so there was a lot of extra space, nothing like what the simpsons have. We only had three bedrooms too, not four.

>>87801522
Beige, easy.

>>87818873
That kind of set up used to be common in England even though they have the smallest European houses on average. if you see a house in England that hasn't been modernized you'll see they have 2 living rooms and a dining room but a tiny ass kitchen and no downstairs bathroom.

A completely different looking character was supposedly Ralph in the first season, although a character with the same design as proper Ralph was in the first episode.

Like you say Ralph didn't become a real character to season 4. He's sort of a background character evolving into one of the show's most popular.

There are a lot of those background characters in the first 3 seasons that just disappears. Wasn't that Wendel kid who's all pale supposed to be Bart's friend in season 1? And Nelson's goons. I think the soap box car episode in s03 is the last one they are seen in. And whatever happened to the two drunks at Moe's that sorta got replaced by Lenny and Carl?

Nelson's voice was also kind of inconsistent in the early seasons. Sometimes Nancy Cartwright would use the normal gruff voice we associate with him, other times he sounded high and squeaky, for example in Marge In Chains where he says "Ha ha, your mom's a jailbird!"
