THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING - what is it?

Derived from the episode of the simpsons "Radioactive Man" Season 7, Episode 2

During the shooting of the new Radioactive Man movie and the most expensive shot in the film, Rainier Wolfcastle, as Radioactive Man, is badly burnt by a 40 foot wall of sulphuric acid which Millhouse, playing Fallout Boy, was supposed to save him from. Radioactive Man, clothes melting off, exclaims "MY EYES... the googles, they do nothing!" In his best Austrian accent of course. Hence "Ze googles, zey do nothing!"

I like to use this quote when I've accidentally looked into the sun or at anything exceptionaly shiney.

Rupert: Check out the VR4 I've just had it waxed
Sean: *shields face* my eyes... ze goggles, zey do nothing..

Caroline: Lets hit the town, im wearing my shiney shoes...
Sean: *shields face* my eyes... ze goggles, zey do nothing!

What does "THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING" mean?

A "saying" that originates from sub-human animals (see also hipsters) who claim to like The Simpsons but can't be bothered to actually quote anything accurately. The CORRECT line is "My eyes! The googles do nothing!"

Douche: "The goggles! They do nothing!"

Guy: "Man, what a pretentious douche... if you're going to try to sound clever by spouting pop culture references, you should at least get them right."

Attractive Girl: "You're so right, I'll have sex with YOU now instead of that loser."

THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING - meaning

a mini-meme originating from The Simpsons, the McBain character is warned to wear goggles to protect him from the acid, however later, he gets trapped in a flood of acid while yelling "MY EYES! THE GOGGLES TO NOTHING". It is often misread/pronounced as "the goggles, they do nothing".

Although the latter may be lulzier, the former is the correct origin of the meme.

McBain: MY EYES!! THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!
