The Homer Shake comes from The Simpsons' 2013 parody of the viral Harlem Shake craze, when the show released a short animated version featuring Homer and the Springfield cast dancing. That format spread quickly across YouTube and meme pages, with fans reusing the call to start their own versions. This Pat version circulates on soundboards as a standalone cue, shared separately from the full video. It remains popular because the reference is instantly recognisable and the phrase works even without the original animation playing on screen.
About this sound
Pat saying do the Homer Shake is a short voice clip referencing The Simpsons parody, often used for dance memes, edits and reaction videos online.
This is a brief voice clip of Pat announcing the Homer Shake in an upbeat, commanding tone, inviting everyone to join the dance. The line is delivered like a party starter, loud and playful rather than conversational, and it lands instantly because of the familiar Homer reference. At just under six seconds it works as a punchy cue, dropping in right before movement or chaos begins. Viewers recognise the joke immediately, and the exaggerated enthusiasm makes an ordinary clip feel like the start of a meme dance sequence.
