17. *****OP YOUTUBE CLIP SPOILER ALERT*****
:rofl:

It is a charming little piece of the very funny and always relevant, "The Simpsons."

Interior - Theater Auditorium


The crowd very obviously is "booing" Mr. C. Montgomery Burns, Springfield's local evil multi-millionaire and Homer Simpson's employer.

Mr. Waylan Smithers, Mr. Burns' personal assistant claims that the crowd is not booing Mr. Burns, but actually cheering Mr. Burns by saying "boo-urns, boo-urns."

Mr. Burns then takes it upon himself to figure out which is the accurate sentiment in the auditorium. When he asks the crowd the question, they promptly throw their concession-stand treats at him.

Hans Moleman, the sympathy-inducing and pathetic old man then claims that he actually was saying "boo-urns."

End Scene

18. It's a "Simpsons" reference.
Mr. Burns and his "yes-man" assistant are at a theater and the crowd is booing him.

Mr. Burns asks his assistant "are they booing me?"

His assistant replies "No sir, they are saying boo-urns, boo-urns."

So, Mr. Burns gets up and asks the crowd "are you saying boo, or boo-urns?"

The crowd gives out a very loud "BOOOO!!!!" and begins throwing stuff at him.

Then one old guy in the middle of all that says "I was saying 'boo-urns'."

:D
