Remember that episode of The Simpsons, Radioactive Man? Of course you do; it had one of our favorite lines: "The goggles, they do nothing."
Well, one thing about that episode that always had me wondering was how Martin would have done in the role of Fallout Boy. Just to refresh your memory, it was during the auditions that one of the producers looked at Martin, and said that he would be perfect for the role. Unfortunately, his name was not on the tryout list, and he wasn't given the role since it wouldn't be fair to the people who actually auditioned.
As we know, Millhouse ultimately landed the role, but I would have love to have seen Martin decked in the uniform instead. But perhaps if he did, he would have been there to save Wolfcastle, and we would have been deprived of the line we love so much.
Just a thought.

Why not? He was the number one Box Office draw from 1939 to 1940.

What's so funny about the goggle line? The scene was that some Highly Formic Acid was about to drench Wolfcastle. He was tied up and could not get away so he just puts on a pair of protective goggles. It's become a common line on web forums. It usually comes after a rather grotesque picture is posted.

What's so funny about the goggle line? First off, when watching the episode, the line is silly because he's literally already up to his neck in toxic waste. And, second, it just sort of gradually became a commonly used line on these boards, like the boo..urns gag. I'm not sure why, but it just has.

Yeah, I realize that, I've seen the episode, its just not very funny. It's almost Snakes on a Plane levels of unfunny internet fad.

The first time I think that line was used on the WC boards was back at the old board just after Blade lost that bet to RD and had to watch the Chyna/Waltman sex video.
Well there was a topic on the subject and someone posted a picture of some goggles with the words 'Be warned they Do Nothing'.

I always thought it odd that they didn't pick Bart who was a inch too short, and picked Millhouse who's shorter then Bart. ;D

The editor did a pretty good job.
[a band of Road Warrior-esque toughs faces the duo in a cave] Rainier: Looks like we're in trouble, Fallout Boy. [scene switch to field in springtime] Milhouse: Jiminy jillikers, Radioactive Man. [back to cave] Rainier: We'll have to fight our way out. Are you ready? [switch to Milhouse on a couch] Milhouse: Yes. [switch to Radioactive Man and Fallout Boy fighting alien slugs]

Not to mention Bart actually managed to grow half an inch in less than a single day.
