Introducing the Frinkiac (https://frinkiac.com/), a search engine that will comb through dialog from The Simpsons and pair it with a screen cap. It catalogs the first fifteen seasons (http://www.wired.com/2016/02/ultimate-simpsons-search-engine-pairs-quotes-with-stills/) of the show, and lets you make a meme from the picture.

A spectacular time sink for fans of the show.

This is awesome. Now they need to get working on the Professor Farnsworth version for Futurama.

This could get ugly.

There are going to be so many "That's a paddlin" memes in my head I'll be dreaming about it.

Now there's a Futurama version (https://morbotron.com/)! From Wired (https://www.wired.com/2016/08/morbotron-futurama-search-engine/):


IN THE BEGINNING, there was Frinkiac, and it was good. Actually, it was pretty great. The Simpsons search engine, which launched in February, matches up your favorite quote with the right still image (or GIF) from the most cromulent animated series of all time. Now? There’s a matching Futurama version. Shut up and take my money.

Dear God. Now my chances of writing the great American novel in the off hours are gone for good.

But, but... "Simpsons" is so juvenile!

Waiting for a similar "Rick & Morty" site FTW!

The way they put these together, they can probably do it with any show that's been released on disc. Hopefully, these guys will open source their softwafe, at which point someone has just got to take the time to do it.
