message: Hi, I restructured the article, I think it looks better now. I just want to ask, how does Carl being African American/good at bastketball imply that he might not have grown up in Iceland... and where is it stated that he grew up in Iceland anyway?

message: Khazakistan? Shouldn't it read "Kazakhstan"? Or is the reference correct and refers to a fictional Simpons based country? Could Carl be related to Borat? Enquiring minds with nothing better to do, want to know...Sceptic-all 13:18, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Why is it that fans have to incorporate every single meaningless throwaway joke into the article?  I'm tempted to slap a cleanup tag on here. 199.126.137.209 19:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I remember a bit where Marge in There's Something About Marrying, in all seriousness, admonishes Homer to allow Lenny and Carl to work out their feelings for each other without Homer pushing them to get hitched. I checked the Wiki-article and nothing. Oh wells. Lots42 (talk) 10:26, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

message: If Carl was born in Iceland (as stated in the first paragraph), why is he listed as an African American? He is an Icelandic American, so I'm going to remove him from the African American category and create an Icelandic American category and put him in it. ElijahTM (talk) 19:32, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He grew up in Iceland but he is obviouisly African American--HereticLord 22:21, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: He's an American citizen, which would make him an African-American as well as an Icelandic-American (and he just says he had an "Icelandic boyhood", it does not necessarily mean he was born in Iceland). -- Scorpion0422 22:46, 16 June 2008 (UTC)
