If white people in the Simpsons universe are yellow, shouldn't people of other skin colors (like black or red) also turn into weird colors, like blue or purple?

Nah, yellow is way closer to white (caucasian?) than blue or purple are to the other shade of skin. Besides, they already do that on "Doug".

Except on Doug, all the white people have realistic skin tones and everybody else is strangely colored. And the colors don't seem really tied to anything. There's too many of them, for one thing. And then Roger has green skin and red hair. Mostly only white people have red hair.

This is offtopic, but the skin colors on Doug have always confused and intrigued me. Sorry.

A pinkish-peachish color. Or as Crayola used to say, "Flesh".

wasn't Smithers a black man (or African-Springfieldian) when the show first started and his colour changed over the seasons? i'm pretty sure he is caucasian - how many black men have collections of Malibu Stacey dolls? probably a few - best not to generalise, but i doubt too many

does Smithers have the same disease Michael Jackson had?

No. There was one episode where Smithers appeared to have a sun burn. Due to a production error. As for having the same disease as Michael Jackson has, I won't touch that question with a ten foot pole.

Smithers was black in one episode when the animators accidentally colored him the wrong color. He never was before, and hasn't been since. Hans Moleman, on the other hand, has changed back and forth between black and white several times. I think he started out as black, but now is white. I don't know what the deal is with him.

When you were growing up, weren't there twin sisters in your elementary school who never went outside and were pale as a ghost? Those twins remind me of the twin miniature girls in the Godzilla movies who were parodied so well in the MechaStreisand episode of South Park.

No, they're just really pasty... like most Internet nerds who haven't seen daylight in four years.
