Boo-urns
What Smithers tells Burns the angry movie audience is saying after a screening of his film "A Burns for All Seasons".
During the episode "A Star is Burns", Mr. Burns asks his faithful assistant Waylon Smithers if the crowd is booing his blatantly egotistical motion picture. Smithers, ever the yes-man, replies that they are saying "boo-urns" (i.e. "Burns"), and not "boo". When Burns asks for clarification, the crowd replies that they are indeed saying "boo", and not "boo-urns". After the crowd replies, Hans Moleman says that, in fact, he was saying "boo-urns".
Hans Moleman: I was saying "boo-urns…"
Recently, the expression Boo-Urns has been used by Australian Football fans, in particular, the supporters of Adelaide United FC when 'Boo-ing' an opposition player.
