improvident lackwit: Too Crazy For Boys Town, Too Much of a Boy For Crazy Town

At GungHaggisFatChoy, Todd Wong announces an event titled “Too Asian to be American, too American to be Asian”. That sentiment was already made fun of by The Simpsons. In one of the many Treehouse of Horror episodes, after separating Siamese twins—no wait, conjoined twins!—Bart and Hugo with a paper cutter, Dr. Hibbert reflects:

Hibbert: But what to do with poor Hugo? Too crazy for Boys Town, too much of a boy for Crazy Town. The child was an outcast. So, we did the only humane thing.
Homer: We chained Hugo up in the attic like an animal and fed him a bucket of fish heads once a week.
