I'm less criticizing the Simpsons and more a form of laziness that is rampant around the Simpsons.
Like Linkara showing a clip of Cybermen saying "There is... logic in what you say" in lieu of a joke.
Like, it's not funny, it's literally just a robot saying those words, and that constitutes a joke somehow.
Once again, making pop cultural references in lieu of actual jokes is a common crutch among people who can't be funny on their own.
The Simpsons just tends to get quoted more than most other things because it's one of the most common frames of references for the types of people who make and listen to the things that you are referring to.
I should actually point out that I find referential humor hilarious but, yeah, it's not quite comedy in the strictest sense.
You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
it occurs to me that I already am a crazy internet tranny, or at least the kind of person who would get made fun of on the cwcki forums if they saw the stuff i post here

Yeah, referential humour can be pretty great in casual conversation or when used by a writer who doesn't usually try to be funny.
It can become a bit dubious when you're using it in professional/quasi-professional comedic contexts, though.

I feel like the past two hours have been little but me making this thread horribly unpleasant by spreading my bad mood around.

Alright, everybody.
I want you to picture a deck of cards.
Now picture shuffling the deck of cards.
Now picture taking the card off the top of the deck and looking at it.

I will guess what card you picked in only 52 tries!

And you better not have picked a Joker or I will make you kiss Harley Quinn

(*we all laugh as the camera pans out, credits roll*)
some references are fairly clever though, in which case i think it qualifies as a joke
And i feel like people deserve to have their property respected, generally
weird would be more like, I dunno, origami dinosaurs having a jam session with the Pillsbury Dough Boy
You said something like "it's not like The Saddest Rhino is the Arbiter of Acceptability" and he started calling himself that, iirc
Nerds hated her because she was not attractive to them, and also in many movies they did not like.
