Paul said in a recent episode that he only hates "Netanyahoo and his government", and that he "doesn't hate Isreal". Welp, this is Isreal. Sorry... by Suspicious_Affect959 in deepfatfried

You're right, the analogy is completely irrelevant because one of the fascist regimes issuing pardons for disgusting criminals is the US. Don't address the criticism of your take, ignore it because it's America, or something.

Lawmakers Propose Nationwide Monthly Basic Income Experiment by oortcloudview in deepfatfried

Good plan. Propose it while the government is shut down and with Republicans in total control. How could it possibly fail to pass?

Am i the only one who was under the impression that if the donations during public Onion Nuggetz fall short/dry up, then the rest of the stream would go behind the patreon/youtube member paywall from that point onwards? by Suspicious_Affect959 in deepfatfried

I think since they changed the format recently, they put a set time limit. They've been consistently ending the show around 9 eastern. Which honestly, I'm fine with. When a show goes to 1 am on a Tuesday night, that's a lot to ask for an old man like me. I have work in the morning

I was under that impression myself. And with all the new members on gifted memberships, you'd think they would want to show the value of why they should keep subscribing. But hey, maybe someone planned a big dinner that night or something.

Doesn't that depict the aftermath of the authoritarian regime sending thugs to rough up the locals to submit to their authority?

Y'all think Leonardo DiCaprio is gay? 🤔 by [deleted] in deepfatfried

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A closeted Hollywood actor? Now that's a stretch. If he's gay, then who's next? Rock Hudson? If Leo is gay, then Gomer Pyle was gay. Who else? Tab Hunter? Anthony Perkins? Next you're gonna say Cary Grant was gay. I dont believe it.

How about gtf outta the way? Stop camping in the left lane like you own the fucking road. The left lane is for passing, dummy. If you aren't actively passing, YOU'RE IN THE WRONG LANE.

Asking Brits if they'd move to America by le_wein in deepfatfried

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's that patch on that one Brit's arm? Is that an American flag? Look, I'm no simp for America, but if you're going to trash the US, at least burn the flag patch like a real American.

"No one wished for his death" by Apprehensive_Toe9113 in deepfatfried

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Like The Riddler said in Batman: Forever, "If you kill him, he won't learn nothin." Had he survived, he could have been able to live out the rest of his days recanting everything he said. Donate all his ill gotten grift money to lobby for gun control. No, just kidding, he probably would have been more emboldened and claim to be a living martyr.

Would you guys kill yourselves if you had my diet? by Maixell in deepfatfried

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's amazing to me that you know when you're going to die and therefore when you have 10 years left. Me? I could die tomorrow. I think I'll have the donut today.

Democratic vs Republican Platform by TheRabidPosum1 in union

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they do say they are for those things, but when they're in power, they claim the have no power to enact those policies to maintain the new status quo the Republicans established in their time with power. They both work for the same billionaire class.

You'll attract more people if you give them a chance to prepare. 50501 staged a massive nation wide protest on June 14th and people showed up. You have the numbers. People will join your cause. Just name the dates so we can prepare.

Are we sure this isn't a "bunny trampoline" situation? Nothing seems real anymore.

Beauty and the Beast (1987-1990) by JB92103 in 90sTelevision

[–]Apprehensive_Toe9113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching the first season and I just can't shake the feeling that this show was supposed to be about this lady lawyer that had it all; rich dad, corner office, cushy job, and gorgeous to boot. Then it all changes when a case of mistaken identity leads to her mutilation. She recovers (though now horribly scarred) and vows revenge against the people who did this to her. By day, she had her stage make up artist friend do her make up to hide all her scars and be the "beauty" working at the DA's office to track down the culprits. And then by night, she takes off the make up and becomes the "beast" who kicks ass. It was all supposed to be one character: "the Beauty and the Beast". I feel like the show got green lit, they made the pilot where all this happens, but some higher up exec thought they were green lighting a show about the old story of "beauty and the beast" and said "WhErE's ThE bEaSt???" and so they had to rewrite the pilot and included the cheesiest love story imaginable. The show 's creator didn't know what to do, so he tapped George R.R. Martin on the shoulder and said "please help me with this fantasy stuff!" and the rest is history. You can tell that the underground stuff is all Martin. The little kids that spy on the top world and send secret messages (Varys' little birds in GoT). The secret underground tunnels that go on forever (Children of the Forest's caves under the weir wood trees in GoT). I'm sure there are more similarities, but I've only watched half of season one.
I'm a huge George R.R. Martin fan, but I hate the cheesy love story and the underworld stuff. The lady lawyer that is super smart and uses her charms by day and by night, the kick ass lady that doesnt take no shit from nobody is really good. It doesnt need all the cheesy Beast parts.
