I was watching the early episode where Skinner falls for Patti. From her behavior in this episode you would nowadays think she was asexual. Later they revealed she was lesbian. the first hint I remember was the Springfield Pride Parade where she and Smithers voice came from the In The Closet float.
Were there any other hints before this one?

Even though it’s a Hallowe’en episode, her stating “There go the last lingering threats of my heterosexuality” is the first.

You could argue "Principal Charming", though that was more Patti being celibate than any actual lesbian reveal at the time. But it is somewhat there, especially given how the relationship with Skinner really has no romance to it, even the kiss being more what Skinner wanted and not her.

Thats exactly what I was referring to in my first post

Here is a new one. Did Bart screw Martins education up for life? In the second episode Bart the Genius Bart switches his test with Martins. Bart gets named a genius and sent to the advanced school. Finally he admits he cheated but didnt tell them he switched the test. So Martin is a genius and should be at that school but no one knows.

The logistics of Krusty Gets Cancelled make no sense. In the space of a few weeks two school children are able to convince numerous celebrities to appear in a one off TV special as well as talk television executives to give him a prime TV slot, months after they axed him for the poor quality of his show.
Plus it was implied that the Gabbo show was a ratings smash. Even if the comeback special had been a success I can't picture millions of people instantly abandoning it, or I&S Studios breaking what I assume to be a long contract to take Itchy and Scratchy back to Krusty.
I worked in the TV industry and I know how long winded the contractual process is.
