Bartholomew JoJo "Bart" Simpson, also known as El Barto and Bartman, is one of the main characters of The Simpsons franchise.
He is a student at Springfield Elementary School and is Homer Simpson and Marge Simpson's eldest son and the older brother of Lisa Simpson and Maggie Simpson. Unlike a traditional older brother, Bart is mischievous, rebellious, jerkish and a troublemaker who likes skateboarding and pulling pranks in school, church or everywhere in Springfield.
He also has no respect for his own family at times, especially antagonizing his own father who always strangles him. He also has a terrible sibling rivalry with his younger sister, Lisa, who is much more responsible than him. He also moons people by pulling his shorts down to expose his bare buttocks.
Bart Simpson is a mischievous and rebellious trouble-maker who enjoys skateboarding and pulling pranks. He is portrayed as a bad boy and prankster, but also has a kindhearted side.

Appearance[]
Bart has yellow skin and blond spiky hair that matches the color of his skin, sports, and like the other characters of The Simpsons, has blue eyes. He wears a vermillion shirt, blue shorts and blue sneakers with white socks. He sometimes wears his "lucky" red baseball cap and carries around his skateboard or a slingshot.
Personality[]
Bart, as he is portrayed in the series, is your typical prankster but being a beautiful kindhearted kid he was. He has no respect for authority and is constantly up to mischief which puts him at edge with his principal Seymour Skinner who is his arch nemesis however the two can be also be very good friends, an example of this would be when Bart unintentionally got Skinner fired and the two walked around the beach, went to dinner together and friendly chatted. When Skinner returned to his old job the two became enemies once again, which they were both fine with. Despite his prideful demeanor, Bart is actually slightly cowardly and will rarely admit when he's done something bad if he gets caught in the act.
Although through most of the series he keeps his "too cool for school" personality Bart will at times break down, such was shown when he failed a test he actually studied for and was then left reduced to tears. This also happened when Nelson lobbed dirt at Bart which made him cry and then childishly say "I'm telling." As for his childhood qualities, Bart's idol is Krusty the Clown and Bart collects all of his toys, posters and other such memorabilia. When trying to prove that he was no longer a child he kissed his doll and said, "I love you, Krusty-Wusty." However, for a ten-year old Bart can also have very if no rare grown-up thoughts, this was shown when he began to believe he wasn't a kid anymore and tried to prove differently by playing with his toy Sergeant Activity only for it to turn into his health and timeshare.
He is somewhat of a slacker and the first to admit that he is dumb. An underachiever and proud of it, Bart rarely ever studies and when he tries to, he is easily distracted, showing magpie-like tendencies. In the fourth grade Bart made little to no advancements in his work and at once came close to repeating the fourth grade if he hadn't passed by the skin of his teeth. He was also not above cheating, which was shown when he ripped off Martin Prince's work and passed it off as his own which led to the teachers believing he was a genius and doing so he shows to have very poor vocabulary skills. After he and the rest of the Simpsons were moved to Cyprus Creek in his school Bart was left in the "special" classes showing how underachieving he is. Although he is not nearly as smart as his best friend Milhouse.
However, despite this, Bart at times can be very crafty and manipulative such was shown when he tricked the teachers into going on strike and then caused a commotion at the bank to make it last even longer. After spending months in France, Bart was able to speak the language fluently. He also proves that he's not above blackmail, as when he discovered that Skinner was the one who had a deadly peanut allergy, Bart was able to use this to his advantage. The other time this has happened was when Homer had won the lottery of one million dollars, he was able to use this to his advantage to get his way. So far the final time this has happened was when Krusty the Clown had run for congress and to get rid of the new flight Bart bribed one of the congressman using a video that would ruin him in Modesto.
At times Bart can work with the side of authority just as well as he does against it. Such was shown when he and the rest of the school took a career aptitude test and his teat results predicted that he would become a police officer which caused him to go on a ride-along with two officers and after seeing them in action wished to be one himself. He then became the Hall Monitor and during his tenure, he was neither corrupt nor did he abuse his power and he in fact became good friends and partners with his heated rival Principal Skinner. Another time in which he worked on the side of authority was when he was being abused by the local bully Nelson Muntz and created his own army to fight him, acting very much like an old army general, and ending up overcoming Nelson. Despite his apparent bad boy status Bart could easily follow orders as was demonstrated when he and Lisa were shipped to military school and Bart proved that he could follow his drill sergeants with ease and no defiance. When put together with his sister Lisa, Bart can also make a very average amateur sleuth.
While at times Bart may appear selfish such as when he got his teacher Edna Krabappel fired by putting alcohol in her drink and then was reduced to owning up because her replacement was more fun than she was. Bart is generally a good-hearted person and caring brother and son. While Lisa and Bart constantly engage in sibling rivalry, to the point where Bart was prideful enough to refuse to apologize as he did on Thanksgiving when he accidentally destroyed her model of the holiday, when Lisa's career aptitude test crushed her dreams of becoming a famous Jazz musician she became rebellious and stole teachers guide book only for Bart to take the heat for her. Bart's relationship with Marge is on steadier ground than with Homer as he'll always be her "special little guy" and Bart loves Marge enough to spend his money on giving her a vacation.
He is very mischievous, rebellious and his defiant behavior ranges from him wearing a T-Shirt from MAD magazine to actually attempting to destroy the school. Even for a 10-year-old Bart has the criminal record of a petty thief and the destruction of his pranks ranged from small-time vandalism, such as spray-painting "El Barto" on walls to actually destroying an entire gymnasium. Bart is able to think up very intricate pranks, but his more favored one appears to be crank calling Moe's Tavern.
He is kindhearted and loyal, and he is also very energetic, but he has been shown to be out of control with his actions.

He explained the plot to his family, and they rushed to her rescue. Bart immediately stopped her before she could light the cigarette.
Was one of three to save a whole bunch of snakes from a mob who are celebrating Whacking Day (the rest being Lisa and the late musician Barry White). After having been expelled, he studies snakes, and learns that sensing vibrations in the ground is how snakes hear, so he plans to use stereo speakers to play any music with some bass, but due to lacking any records whose artists are bass, they have Barry White perform in person instead, and the older two Simpson children use it to lure all the snakes into their house. He then convinces the mob that Whacking Day is a sham and speaks of a fact of its history. He and Lisa convince the mob that snakes have brought benefits to them.
