When we first meet Powell in Die Hard, he's buying Twinkies. Not just a two-pack like a normal person who hates himself but as many as he can carry, which he tries to brush off by telling the clerk they're for his pregnant wife. But later in the film he demonstrates an encyclopedic knowledge of the ingredients inside a Twinkie when he rattles them off after McClane makes an offhanded remark wondering what's in them. This demonstrates Powell is intimately familiar with the Twinkie. He's memorized the list of ingredients.
There is no escape from Steve Urkel; there is no respite from his stupidity. The world constructed in Al Powell's mind to be a safe haven from the horror's of the real world in New York and L.A. is unable to withstand the guilt. The vengeful power of the damned spirits have fed upon that guilt to drive him to the point of madness, and to drive us, the audience, to the point of changing the channel because the show sucks so bad. No one wants to watch Urkel, man.

Preach. Urkel never goes away despite all the negative and/or non-affirming feedback he gets from the show’s other characters. He just keeps popping up like an obnoxious virus.
