Cheese-eating surrender monkeys
"Cheese-eating surrender monkeys", sometimes shortened to "surrender monkeys", is a pejorative term for the French people. It was coined in 1995, by Ken Keeler, a writer for the television series ''The Simpsons'', and has entered two Oxford quotation dictionaries.
==Origin==
The term "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" first appeared in "'Round Springfield," an April 1995 episode of the American animated television show ''The Simpsons''. In the episode, budget cuts at Springfield Elementary School force the Scottish janitor, Groundskeeper Willie, to teach French. Expressing his disdain for the French people, he says to his French class in his Scottish accent: "Bonjoooouuurrr, ya cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys!" On the audio commentary for the episode, executive producer Al Jean said the line was "probably" written by ''The Simpsons'' staff writer Ken Keeler.
In February 2012, Keeler confirmed this in an interview, and stated that he considers it to be his best contribution to the show. Jean commented that the staff did not expect the term to become widely used and never intended it as any kind of genuine political statement.〔 When "'Round Springfield" was dubbed in French, the line became "Rendez-vous, singes mangeurs de fromage" ("Surrender, you cheese-eating monkeys").
