The many similarities I share with Groundskeeper Willie

Willie: I have some information for you, but it's gonna be hard to hear.
Bart Simpson: Why, because of your stupid accent?
Willie: Ach, nay! Because of its upsetting nature.

So much in common.

· We both live alone in a shack on the school grounds where we work

· We are both immigrants

· We both speak in an accent that is often unintelligible (or at least ridiculous) to the locals

· We are both very proud of our homeland

· We both keep the school grounds (it’s sort of my job to lock up the school at night, and make sure no one is abusing the school water pump)

· We frequently give contradictory accounts of our past lives

· We are both quick to anger, and quick to yell at kids

Other than the fact that I actually teach, whereas Willie does not, we're practically the same person.
