"E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)", also known as "E-I-E-I-D'oh", is the fifth episode of the eleventh season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It originally aired on the Fox Network in the United States on November 7, 1999. In the episode, inspired by a Zorro movie, Homer begins slapping people with a glove and challenging them to duels to get whatever he wants.

The episode was written by Ian Maxtone-Graham and directed by Bob Anderson.
