'''James Corky "Jimbo" Jones''' (voiced by ]) is a character of the TV show '']''. He wears a ] and a black ] ]. He can often be seen hanging around ], ], and ].

Jimbo's real name is '''Corky''', but has also been referred to as James, potentially indicating a connection of his nickname to a middle name. He enjoys torturing his schoolmates and shoplifting. In one episode it is hinted that he comes from a well-off family, displayed when—with the school closed for a teacher's ]—he and his mother watch ]s and sip tea together in a very nice living room. Given that his father seemed to be a beer-drinking lowlife when seen in another episode, it may be that Jimbo is an illegitimate child, which may explain his antisocial tendencies. His mother may be involved with "bad boys" despite her social status, as she is currently dating a man nammed Gunnar (see below). He also has connections to the ]. In another episode, Jimbo becomes the boyfriend of Bart's babysitter Laura Powers (voiced by ]), on whom Bart had a ]. However, Bart got even one night when Laura was babysitting him and had Jimbo over. Bart made one of his trademark prank calls to ], and told Moe when he found out that it was a prank that his name was Jimbo Jones of 742 Evergreen Terrace. Moe came to the house with a rusty knife, and Jimbo started to cry like a little girl. Laura broke up with Jimbo shortly afterwards. |

In ], he was turned into "sloppy Jimbos" (apparently a variant of the ] sandwich) by ]. Jimbo has stated he intends to go to ] when he is older because he doesn't "believe in nothin' no more." This announcement caused ] some distress, as Jimbo held him to be a role model when he headed a ] group and was let down by Homer's incompetence. |

Despite his reputation as a bully and delinquent, it is significant that it is sometimes hinted that Jimbo is in fact Christian, with strong moral standards. In one episode, he suggests that he stole dolls because "they demean women". In another, Homer tells Jimbo "your King commands it" to which Jimbo boldly replies "Jesus is our only King". Despite this, in support of Dolph's references to a long-haired carpenter who "has a lot of crazy ideas about love and brotherhood," Jimbo adds, "his name's Gunnar he's dating my mom". He (and his friends Kearney and Dolph) also have a surprising amount of civic and national pride: they respect ] for killing a bear with his bare hands, while ]'s performance of ] causes Jimbo and his friends to run to the library to learn more about the ]. |
