Bart Simpson Biography

Apr 14, 2016

It's been almost 15 years since the world first met Bart Simpson, and he's been everybody's favorite troublemaker ever since. When he's not hanging out with his best friend Milhouse, he's dreaming up new ways to make Homer mad and torment Lisa.

Bart Simpson - Little Devil

It probably wasn't a surprise to anybody when Bart's first words were "aye carumba," an expression he's become famous for (along with "eat my shorts," of course). Even as a small baby, Bart's been getting into trouble; seconds after he was born, he lit Homer's tie on fire! He had the Simpson household to himself for a while, until his baby sister Lisa was born. Bart didn't like all the attention that Lisa began getting, until it became obvious that Lisa really loved her big brother (her first word was "Bart").

Bart Simpson - Friends and Enemies

Bart spends a lot of his free time hanging out with friends, including Milhouse, Martin, and even schoolhouse bully Nelson. He's also found time for crushes, particularly a new neighbor named Laura (who, unfortunately for Bart, didn't return his affections). Bart spends a lot of time in detention (just look at all the things he's been forced to write on the blackboard!), much to the satisfaction of Principal Skinner. Bart's had his revenge on several occasions, though, most notably by spray painting a portrait of Principal Skinner with the words "I am a wiener" written underneath. And, of course, there's Bart's idolization of Krusty the Clown - and his understandable fear of former Krusty sidekick, Sideshow Bob (who has tried to kill Bart on several occasions)!

Bart Simpson - A Busy Life

When Bart isn't in school or at home, he's finding other ways to amuse himself. He worked as a bartender for Fat Tony for a while, and became famous on Krusty's show as the "I Didn't Do It" kid. Bart suffers from a lack of ambition, something made abundantly clear by his goal to become a drifter when he grows up.
