Weekend Discussion Thread: The STOOOPIDest MSTed Movie Character

In one of our recent Episode guide comments sections, we were discussing how STOOPID Jimmy from “I Accuse My Parents” was, when alert regular “Littleamishboy” suggested:

So please be kind and observe the NO POLITICS rule in the comments. Thank you.
