Grimey was an uptight bitch with a superiority complex over everyone else. America, and life in general is all about good luck and bad luck.

Grimey as he liked being called, had bad luck.

I feel like people who say this shit haven't actually watched the episode and just saw Youtube reviws of it.

He absolutely did not have a superiority complex over people. He was respectful to everyone including his co-workers and Homer's family.

Frank Grimes is what's wrong with America.

Getting mad at a fellow worker who's actually happy with his life rather than getting mad at the system that created his suffering.

This is also a bad take.

Homer literally got Grimes a massive reduction in pay and nearly fired after Grimes saved his life due to Homer's incompetence. A bullet Homer made Grimes take.

Homer is putting everyone in danger at the plant and has caused meltdowns.

Homer stole Grimes' stuff and ate his food.

Going "Well sure but it's the system he should be mad at. Not the guy constantly harrasing, endangering and abusing him." is just an inhuman response.

Imagine someone crashes into your car, smashes your knee with a crowbar, steals your phone and wallet, pisses on you and goes "I hope ya die bitch." before driving his nicer car than yours back to his nicer house than yours.

And then someone goes "You shouldn't be mad at him, you have a superiority complex. Be sad at the society that led to him." is just a complete lack of comprehending human emotion, logic and psychology.

I get that the 1% sucks and American capitalism is corrupt and broken. That doesn't make Grimes a bad person for being mad when a complete jerk consistently does recklessly dangerous and harmful things to him 5 days a week.

I think people get too hung up on Grimes' line about how Homer would have died in any other country and take it hyperliterally and as if it's the only thing Grimes ever said.

Grimes really didn't do anything wrong right uptil he snapped at at the end, and even then he only hurt himself. That was the entire dark humor
