In preparation for the Bringing it All Back Home: CMS Communities panel at SXSW, which I'll be speaking at on Saturday, I posed the following question on Twitter and in #drupal:
Which Simpsons character best represents the #Drupal community and why?
And the winner, in terms of number of responses, was...
- Thinks she has all the answers to save the world but is so pathetically naive she never will. Yet you love her anyway. - TheRealCrell
- Underestimated, Intelligent, resourceful. With a wonderful singing voice. - bear_feet
- She is open minded and usually diplomatic :) - JCL324
- Logical, but not so popular. - DaftNinja
And here were the others. Feel free to comment too with your own. :)

- More beer, less effort - crayulaglonon
- Just look at his versatility in the first minutes of every show when writing on the table, also total disrespect for authority. - chx

- We tend to be extremely opinionated and look down at others that don't agree LOL - RobbieTheGeek

Not ashamed to play the bari saxophone, honing her craft, while waiting an opportunity to take the lead alto sax spot.

No you can't play with it, you won't enjoy it on as many levels as i do.
Sorry the site was late. There was problems in the programming pit with the running and the exploding and the crying and the monkeys stealing the glasses off my head.
Oh so many parallels.
