Homer Simpson effect

Phrase. When bad situations seem alright, because the person is so stupid they don't realize the consequences or degree of shittyness... just like Homer Simpson.
If you're broke, have a shit job, no girlfriend, had your car towed, are getting evicted and still think the situation is just fine... you may be suffering from the Homer Simpson effect. If you also failed grade 9, the probability of this increases dramatically.
