* As seen in the above picture, Homer strangling Bart in ''Father Knows Worst''. Homer mistakingly swallows a flaming stick [[TheFool believing it was a shish kabob]], prompting Bart to trick him into drinking lighter fluid. Homer then proceeds to choke Bart and '''breath fire at the same time'''. Granted, he never suceeds at incinerating Bart, but it's amazing.

* I can't believe no one's mentioned the time Homer kicked an entire biker gang's ass in order to rescue Marge (though she didn't need rescuing THAT bad, and was even teaching them about not always using violence). Not only did he walk into a biker bar three times despite getting knocked out every time to learn where she was - when he finds them, he leaps out of the bushes, kicks everyone's ass until the gang's leader challenges him to go one-on-one in the Circle of Death. Not only do they have an epic chain-fight, it culminates in both of them LIFTING THEIR MOTORCYCLES OVER THEIR HEADS AND FENCING WITH THEM. And Homer WINS, knocking over the guy and lifting the motorcycle with a "Give me back my wife!" And THEN, when he's gotten Marge back - he freaking goes back to the bar and steals their beer keg. That. is. AWESOME.

* In Dog Of Death, after Burns [[KickTheDog straps Bart's gentle pet dog to a chair, sets up a machine that holds the dog's eyes open, and forces the dog to watch several images of animal abuse to, as Burns himself put it, turn the dog into "a vicious, soulless killer..."]] and after Burns sends said dog after Bart, the dog's memories of good times with Bart prompt him to lick Bart's face instead of attacking him. When the other dogs come after Bart, said pet dog growls at the other dogs and scares them off, only to proceed to lick Bart's face AGAIN. Burns' attempt at breaking the dog's spirit yields, if any change in the dog at all, a result of the dog [[TookALevelInBadass taking a level in badass]], while still no longer being on Burns' side in the long run.

** With those words, Homer does something so obvious that even an idiot could think of it, namely grabbing a shovel and simply ''digging'' Bart out. Groundskeeper Willie sees him, wonders why he didn't think of that, and grabs a shovel of his own to pitch in. Eventually, more and more people come out to help, including [[ThePolice Sting]], until Bart is finally rescued.
