Ralph Wiggum is a recurring fictional character on the animated series The Simpsons, voiced by Nancy Cartwright. He is best known as the show's resident oddball, and has been immortalized for his non sequiturs and erratic behavior. His lines range from nonsensical, or bizarre interpretations of a current event, to surprisingly profound statements that go over people's heads.

For this, Ralph is somewhat of an outcast among his peers, although he seems to be on good terms with a fair number of the major child characters on the show. The son of Chief Wiggum and Sarah Wiggum, Ralph is a good-hearted and generally well-meaning boy who suffers from severe learning and social disabilities. The nature of his mentality is kept rather ambiguous, much like many of the signature traits of much of the show's cast.

The creator of the show, Matt Groening, has said that he is his favorite character. Ralph is quite an enigma of a child. Upon first glance, one might look at him as mentally challenged.

His unique manner of speech is often the source of the character's trademark random quotes, where Ralph may make a comment such as "Me fail English?That's unpossible!", "It tastes like...burning!", "That's where I saw the leprechaun. He told me to burn things." "I found a moon rock in my nose!", or "Mr.

Flanders, you're blindeded!", as well as his tendency to call his teacher "School Mommy" and on one occasion calling Superintendent Chalmers "Super Nintendo Chalmers" and, when Bart Simpson was visiting his house, he said "This is my sandbox. I'm not allowed to go in the deep end" However, Ralph is also able to speak in a normal manner much of the time, which only adds to the question of his condition and character. He also appears to have several talents.

He is an incredible tap dancer and played the role of George Washington in the school play. As Washington, he not only recited his lines perfectly but also managed to play the role so well that he brought the audience to tears.
