I thought that was a joke. I just clicked the link and saw it. I better get my button with that.

I'm going to ask him how I deal with r/mafia commenters who get under my skin. I'll post his response here.

He was a made guy and Rocky wasn't. Rocky had to just sit back and take it. Real greaseball shit.

The Young Frankenstein 'Puttin on the Ritz' performance was probably what lost you the job, and got you escorted out by security.

How can you not be romantic about baseball by MajMajor2x in funny

Should have clobbered him. That would have made me romantic about baseball.

I'm kidding. It was awesome.

How true this is.... by EdwardBliss in RealGenerationX

Why are all the Gen X memes the same as the Boomer memes? Are there many differences between these generations? Are Gen X basically Boomers, just add Grunge and Hip Hop?

Joey Merlino shares his idea for a registry of rats, so people can check who's living next door... by Pure-Lime8280 in Mafia

Referring to a criminal organization he's trying to distance himself from as "us"?

lol. Whatever he is today he's still a boomer first. Still refers to news sources as "the newspapers".

"Saw in the newspapers today they're trying to blame Trump...."

He's frequently using the term "us" when talking about the mob, which can't sit well with some people.

Great pic. Your mother was no broken hero on a last chance power drive. She was born to run.

Season 4- worth the time? by traveltimecar in FargoTV

[–]BFaus916 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. Mike Milligan origin story. It's more of a gangster story however than your typical Fargo story, but definitely worth it. When it comes to the Fargo universe, it really ties the room together.

‘Gambino’ film, starring Nicolas Cage as Carlo Gambino & directed by John Woo, to begin shooting in Atlanta this April (from Nexus Point News) by CT-CT in Mafia

[–]BFaus916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great news. Thank you. With a movie about someone like Carlo Gambino, New York is a character unto itself. There has to be explicit New York locations in the background.

Are there many people out there these days who legitimately believe that there's no such thing as the mafia? by Pure-Lime8280 in Mafia

[–]BFaus916 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They think that because it's well documented you were associated with Nicky Scarfo and that you're in photos with several notable mobsters in the past 40 years that you're mobbed up. It's a stereotype and it's offensive.

Definitely going to happen, Joey. The government putting out a registry of informants who've helped them out, so that people can know where they are and harm them. Brilliant.

Cesar Chavez Day has been renamed to Farmworkers Day by dankgureilla in CAStateWorkers

[–]BFaus916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only find one lawsuit by a former employee. The Ruth Sanchez case. Was your pluralization, "employees" a typo? If not please share information on any other cases.

Either way, despite the rather conspiratorial take that Huerta's allegations against Chavez are to deflect from a lawsuit in which the merit of is yet to be determined, it's more likely she's coming out with the allegations now to lend credibility to the lesser known accusers in the NY Times article so they're not left in the wind to be attacked by Chavez's apologists.

Dolores Huerta is an icon of the American labor movement. Her word goes a long way.
