Francine Rhenquist (The Simpsons)

Francine Rhenquist is a minor recurring character from The Simpsons. She is a bully who was introduced as a new student at Springfield Elementary School in "Bye Bye Nerdie".

Why She Intentionally Deserves To Be Punched In The Face

 * 1) She is nothing more than a stereotypical bully. This persona is already used for other characters like Nelson Muntz and Jimbo Jones, except they're executed much better, while Francine fails in comparison.
 * 2) She constantly bullies Lisa and every "nerd" in Springfield Elementary School non-stop. In fact, there isn't a single scene in "Bye Bye Nerdy" where she isn't bullying anyone (aside from her first introductory and when Lisa sprays herself with salad dressing).
 * 3) Despite being introduced in "Bye Bye Nerdie" and having an important role in that episode, she seemingly was reverted to a minor recurring character in the show and has never had an episode where she has an important role in it, thus making her a pointless character to the series.
 * 4) Even though she doesn't speak that much, her voice is pretty annoying to listen to, especially when she screams.
 * 5) Unlike Nelson, she doesn't have a backstory as to why she became a bully and doesn't have any sympathetic reasons as to why she acts the way she does, making her even more unlikable.
 * 6) Her reasons for bullying nerds make no sense whatsoever; she bullies children because they produce some type of chemicals when they sweat, which causes bullies to want to beat them up.
 * 7) She is a Karma Houdini, as she never gets punished for her actions, not even her parents punish her, they just treat her actions like it's no big deal.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) She nicely waved to Lisa when she had nose plugs in, showing that she could a nice person, despite the fact that she bullies nerds.
 * 2) Like everyone else, her design is passable.
 * 3) She is shown to have better cameo appearances in modern episodes.
 * 4) Despited being underdeveloped, she is still supposed to be hated.
