Chiro is entirely pseudo and unproven. The cracks you hear are not bone but muscle stretch usually and its usually a 16 minute fix before you fall back into the problem. Just stretch and work out, you ll achieve better results
@Closed Since nobody actually answered "what's meant" by it, (only mentioning the reference) i'll actually explain. It's about turf. You put "town" after anything to say that's what/who's town it is. This was Moe saying, let it go, this is their town. (the chiropractors town. chiro for short) You could think of it today with Taxis vs Ubers. Has NYC been taken over by the Uber business? This is Uber town. (or city in that case. lol) And to explain why it's a reference. Saying "(some)-town" isn't a reference. This was only a reference to the movie "Chinatown" because of the line "Forget it, Homer. It's Chirotown." (original "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown.") They of course set the scene similar also. On the street at night, ending with Noir music. But that's just bonus reference. It's also possible they could've never seen the movie (or it never existed) and still had Moe say that same line. But of course the rest of the scene confirms that it is a reference. If it didn't exist, or you never saw that movie before then (me, still) you can still understand what Moe meant by "Chirotown" the same way you'd understand the meaning of "Chinatown". You just wouldn't know it was a reference to something you don't know about. Sorry for the in-depth article 9 months late when it's irrelevant to you. But hopefully that clears it all up. lol
Diego D I know; it’s almost like the entire premise of the episode, was specifically designed, just so they could end on that reference... ...I know that probably isn’t the case, but I’d be absolutely fine if it was haha.
This actually happened to somebody I know. They had their knee out of alignment and went to chiropractor, but never got totally OK. Then they fell on some trash on their knee, and it the pain went away 🤣
*They had their knee out of alignment and went to chiropractor* There's the problem right there - many chiropractors describe themselves as "primary care" providers based on pseudoscientific principles, when their profession only helps (and very incidentally) with certain types of back pain. Methinks someone should have visited their GP or a physiotherapist.
@@rethguals Yeah, I've had chiropractors that were actually good. When I got an x ray of my neck, it also caught part of my jaw where I could see my wisdom teeth impacted. Instead of making an opinion, he just said "probably should see a dentist." Lol
Was he advised to see the chiropractor on a weekly basis where cracking the back gave some temporary relief but ultimately achieving nothing, which resulted in mounting chiropractor fees over the long term, making the chiropractor rich by essentially curing nothing?
Anyone else have to crack their back after watching this? I can watch the try not to laugh or jump videos with no issue, but when it comes to watching the videos that have a lot of bone popping, I have to pop my back or something.
Dr. Hibbert : Modern medicine has a lousy record of treating the back. We spend too much time on the front. Homer : Yeah, there's some neat stuff on the front!
Funniest part was when he said, "it feels a little better!" They're total quacks, every last one of them. You're better off falling over a trash barrel then seeing one of them
For anyone wondering the ending "forget it Homer, its chirotown" is a reference from the ending of a popular movie called "Chinatown" where they say "forget it Jake, its Chinatown"
Worth it just to see the last chiropractor with a long pony tail. The only chiro I knew personally had his hair in a pony tail just as long as that. But I never used a chiro. I saw any friends that used them were constantly going back, often every week. Like this skit mentions "many times."
This strikes me so much as a person with scoliosis who often visits a chiropractor. The advice given by the doctor in this scene is a spot on from mines as well and I often hear lots of people questioning their general practices. Though I would still prefer going to them for now because the other option is to be treated via surgery and I cannot afford that.
Here in my country surgery is free but people still choose chiropractors because surgery implies a lot more preparation, pain, anesthesia, painkillers, recovery, stitches..
1:13. As an occupation therapist i run into that alot Patient: Youre not making me more independent Me: Are you doing your home exercise program? Patient: Hell no.
The chiropractors beating the can with spines always cracks me up
Cracks you up... like a can? 😂
FlameAdder 😒
Wait a minute no investor goes that low lol
"They'll *pay* for what they did to my can!"
Tomedy they’re chiropractors!
"No investor can bend like that!"
"They're chiropractors"
“No! My spine-o-cylinder! They’ll pay for what they did to my can!”
“Forget it Homer, it’s chiro town.”
Wow, it's like we saw the same clip
Seriously? From all the amazing lines in this clip you chose that one??
@@drwhofan1049 think about the irony
I like how chiropractors just use some people's spines as their weapons
Probably just skeleton models.
simple but fantastic joke
Like an MK Fatality.
Probably their ex patients spinal columns. After they drop dead suddenly.
Patent Pending 😁
1, 2, better not sue ! 😂😂
My brother used to always day this when we were younger and I just now see where he heard it
@Christopher Payne crying with laughter.
3, 4, see you in court
5,6, Karen please give me my kids
Fine, I won't.
“Less yacking, more cracking.”
“Now Homer, we don’t actually crack backs, it’s merely an adjustment. You’re gonna hear a loud cracking sound.”
yes
yes good job we all saw the same video
It feels a little better
There we go
*craaack*
"I'll need to see you 3 times a week for.. many years" his smile 😂😂😂😂
Grand
So that's what he says, was wondering what he said haha! Thought it was meneers 🤣
That's the first lesson in 'chiropractor school'.
He smiled bc he knew he was gonna get a lot of money
I’m a Doctor of Chiropractic and that line made me laugh so hard. So funny.
"Now I can focus on my crippling emotional pain!" Yep, that's pretty much why I stay fit.
On one hand I’m grateful I can feel. On the other hand life was so much simpler when I was cold and lifeless.
Just pound back a bunch of pills and booze. Worked for me. Temporarily.
@@Kirokill1 What changed?

@@squamish4244 That's all you ever really get in life is a temporary respite. You're ahead of the game, don't let anyone tell you otherwise...
My dad recently had a bad experience with a chiropractor. Did a lot of damage to him. This episode immediately sprang to mind.
Saaaame!!!!!
Did the doctor say one two better not sue. If he didn't I'm sure you can get money back

Not unless you think about the irony!
it was pretty ironic lol
probably my favorite line lol
One of the greatest lines 🙏
😭😭😭😭😭 I've been laughing at this line ever since this episode first aired many years ago.
Hey... it feels a little better.
My chiropractor father laughed at this episode
Does he know he scams?
Haytham Kerans it ain’t no scam gonstead chiropractors are the real deal
Chiropractors only operate in areas where vulnerable idiots will pay for them to fuck up their bodies...like California.

Forget it Homer, its chiro-town
I'm not a native speaker, so could someone explain me what's meant with ciro-town?
I guess it's a mix of chiropractor and something else.
It's a reference to the movie Chinatown.
@@MinscFromBaldursGate92 thanks ^^
Yep, it was a line from the movie “Chinatown.” They did this a couple of times on the Simpsons.
@Closed Since nobody actually answered "what's meant" by it, (only mentioning the reference) i'll actually explain. It's about turf. You put "town" after anything to say that's what/who's town it is.

_Stop chiropracting!_
NOT UNLESS YOU THINK ABOUT THE IRONY
"Excuse me, sir. Is this El Clinico Magnifico?"
That line always cracks me up 😂😂
As a licensed massage therapist, this is hilarious!
Same 😂😂😂
Does the trash can or any round object like that actual work if someone falls on it like homer did?
I’m a unlicensed massage therapist don’t tell the government
Since your a licensed massage therapist, did Homer make Lenny’s Sciatica worse then?
So which kind are you? The one who scam people out of money, or the one who fronts a prostitution ring ?
1:01 perfect summary of chiropractors
My searing leg pain is now a gentle numbness 😂😂😂
“My crippling emotion “ 😂
“Real doctors hate chiropractors.” 😂
"Now I can focus on my crippling emotional pain.. Oh daddy why, why would you never hug me?! You hugged the mailman!"
I love Bart's genuine concern for once lmao
They'll pay for what they did to my can!!!
Forget it, Chase. It's Chiro-town...
If you read that without any context it would sound so wrong.
This actually happened to somebody I know. They had their knee out of alignment and went to chiropractor, but never got totally OK. Then they fell on some trash on their knee, and it the pain went away 🤣

It's funny, how you can make a own short story of all side stories.
Miss the old Simpsons.
"Heyyy! It feels a little better!"
“I thought it might. Now I’ll need to see you three times a week for, many years.”
I love it when Homey goes backwards over the can really gets me in the same way I've always loved the thought of a brick wall collapsing on top of me.
Homer patentpended Bart twice while completely trusting Lisa. It is so cute.
Great analogy for inventions that benefit humanity, but we be never hear from them again
The way the chiropractors left the garage lmfaoooo !!!
Homer is a genius.
He invented the Chirp Wheel.

ryan121995 no
2 years ago my car was hit in the back. My baxk has been fucked since then. My medicaid dont cover a chiropractor. God i wish I knew Homer.
Nope, I don’t have stupid thoughts like that.
Not back, but neck.
@@alexserrano6843 stretch bro, stretch your back almost as much as they stretched jeffery epsteins neck when he didnt commit suicide.
Had a chiropractor ad before and after this clip
This cartoon is hilariously clever 😂😂🤣
Moe: “Careful I’m frail.”
Yet Moe was a boxer.
2:52 when mom doesn’t let you use the x box
I'll need to see you three times a week for many years lol

1:00 chiropractors in a nutshell.
Simpsons is genius
This is one of my favorite episodes..
The dislikes from this video are probably from humorless Chiropractors.
something about "youve been warned. stop chiropracting." is so goddamn hilarious 2:42
"it's feels...a little better"
" 1, 2, better not sue "
The one thing I remember about this episode, from watching it on FOX as a kid
My back has been killing me ever since I've thought of this episode
I love this clip and have seen it many times. The Simpsons humor was absolutely awesome. The
I actually got a chiropractor ad watching this lol
“Talent Painter with a BRUSH with the law!” 😂

That Chinatown reference at the end is brilliant!!!
"Forget it Homer. It's Chiro Town"
I got that reference. (China Town, with Jack Nickholson)
nö
I didn’t ever really like the Simpson’s but I saw this many years ago and never forgot it. Idk why
2:20 this part gets me every time 😂
"No investor can bend like that".
"Not unless you think about the irony"
Forget it Homer, it's Chiro-town! Love the reference to Chinatown.
2:01-2:18 I wonder if Homer made it worse?

Rock Man my mom went to a chiropractor and he fixed her back.
America... Where it is a rich privilege to simple be healthy...
Lol, the American healthcare system is amusing to me.

Just get yourself a trashcan too. Problem solved...
Literally how occupational licencing works.
This actually super effective based on what I use my yoga ball for
Dr. Homer's miracle spinal cylinder!
Holy crap how did I miss this episode
3:43 "Forget it,Homer. It's Chiro-town"
*Shows Homer an Xray that indicates he's dead*
Hee hee, you need a chiro
The dream catcher was a nice touch.
I'll hug you, Moe!
3:22 now that’s an natural talent
I like how he’s walking around with a spine that isn’t even connected at some points 😂
1:13. As an occupation therapist i run into that alot
Patient: Youre not making me more independent
Me: Are you doing your home exercise program?
Patient: Hell no.
"Vertebrains"
Lol
LOL!!!!!
Less yack'n, more crack'n
Hahaha Moe: Oh dady dady why wont you hug me, YOU HUGGED THE MAIL MAN!!!" hahahaha
I use to be able to crack my back by leaning back over large cylindrical objects, like the arm of a chair
But let me guess: a couple of Chiropractors came to your house, took those objects away, and smashed them up like they work for Al Capone, correct?
pretty much.
Hang from a bar or something and relax your muscles especially in your back and shoulders. Youre welcome
homer got knocked over by a kid's hi-5 lol
This is probably the only time you see people get mad at being told to stop chiropracting.
1:25 that's a nice jig Homer.
It's 4.30am on Monday morning. Why am I watching this yet again?
After watching this video, my phone is showing lots of chiropractors advertising, I couldn't help it since this show is funny...
I miss this gold!
Very super nice homer👍🏻!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He can actually patent and sell his invention, he take pictures of the design and knows how it works.
El clínico magnífico! 🤦♂️oy!!
I can totally see that on a bus.
