Can't talk--eating.

Can you guys help me out? I'm looking for a list (or if you can just remember quotes, that's good too) of instances where somebody is trying to talk to Homer, but he's eating so he replies with something like, "Can't talk--eating." One such instance is where Homer's nose leads his raft to the off-shore Krusty Burger, and Bart says something like, "You saved our lives, dad!" and Homer replies, "Can't talk--eating." Thanks in advance

The bone stopped the bullet. Lisa: Dad, this might be one of those things you should go to the hospital for. Homer: After pie. [eats a slice]"

As for the answer to your question, I don't know. That'd be a neat list, but I'm not aware of one as such.

I think one of my favorites is the Shinning, Ghost Moe: "Homer, the Ghouls and I are afraid the project isnt going along as planned."

Homer: "Cant murder... eating."
