You're crazy! Sure the last 10-11 years are not as funny as the first decade, but for you to call those years "horrible" is nuts. I will give you seasons 16-18. Those seasons were craptastic, but no one can deny these episodes were not funny:
Season 11:
E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt): Inspired by a cheesy "Zorro" movie, Homer begins slapping people with a glove and challenging them to duels (with the victims giving Homer whatever he wants instead of accepting the challenge), but when a real Southern gentleman accepts Homer's request for a duel, The Simpsons run off to the old farm Homer lived in with his parents (as seen in the season six episode Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy) and breed a dangerously addictive tobacco/tomato hybrid called "tomacco".

HOMЯ: While working as a human guinea pig (to pay off the family's lost savings after Homer makes a bad investment), Homer discovers the root cause of his subnormal intelligence: a crayon that was lodged in his brain ever since he was a kid. He decides to have it removed to increase his IQ, but discovers that being smart does not necessarily equal being happy.
