Electric toothbrushes and detachable shower heads were definitely affordable to middle class and lower income folks back in 2004

I feel like, "Just because Maggie can't talk, that doesn't mean she's dumb," is an underrated joke. These days, we'd typically use "mute" to describe someone who can't speak, but "dumb" (and dumbstruck) used to mean the same thing.

the collection agency gags always land. I had totally forgotten Castellaneta's drawn-out read of OmniPay and it's going to land in my repertoire alongside "I try to pay them all, but there's just so many!" Surprisingly joke-heavy episode despite the already-noted flaws with the plotline
