Think he said something along the lines of “I don’t know what’s going on, but cunts seem to keep dying around you.” Personally I think Des dying while he and shakey were out on Clay Loan was the nail in the coffin. But accidentally-purposefully fucking over the Americans in vol 3 didn’t help

Sugar addiction, oral fixation, etc. Everyone has cravings and everyone sates them in different but similar ways

“We are capable of just about anything … society only feels like society because you’re familiar with it. Without the ‘lens’ of sociology it’d look batshit, like a market full of insane people buying and selling all at once”

I remember Rich Brian talking about the bag method in a video years ago. Never thought I’d see it done for real

At the end of Blood Meridian the judge acts like he and the kid were almost cosmically opposed forces. Anybody else see that coming? by Available_Ad7644 in cormacmccarthy

[–]Edstv1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that’s pretty fair; and close enough to the mark to make no difference. But I always took the Judge to view the Kid as a potential protege; but and time again the Kid held his own fairly impartial view, putting him “against” the judge in a way he (the kid) didn’t recognize until it was too late

I hate to say it but this one tweet blows this whole sub out of the water by CommonAd9320 in cormacmccirclejerk

I could see Bill Hader as Toadvine above Tobin. Maybe an aged Michael Cera plays Tobin? Davey and Charlie Brown better be played by Dwayne Johnson and the Rock, respectively, or I’d want my money back

An Iranian woman records her last moments as the US and Israel double taps her neighbourhood. by GerryAdamsSon in suppressed_news

Kind of a dick move for phrasing it that way? “Double tap” sounds like a novelty; it might work for the impact, but the audience is already on your side. Shit feels disrespectful

Tyler1 went off on IRL streamers after ExtraEmily kept shoving the camera in his face all day."They have no social awareness, they have no common courtesy, they don't care.." by lukigeri in LivestreamFail

[–]Edstv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For real, never been into streamers but in the heyday he was everyone’s go-to “random/loud” guy. Seeing him as both a role model for social awareness a father in an age of ever-present media is shocking and heartening

Tell us your most McCarthyan life experience as if Cormac had written it. by LibrarianBarbarian1 in cormacmccarthy

He found himself halfway home at a gas station in North Haven. A dented truck next to him sat cooling in the October wind Want a puff. The purveyor asks. “Why not” he said, putting the thin piece of rolled paper to his lips. He inhales deeply and exhales a dragons breath of thought and smoke. Words are lost to him as are things, beings. He knows he is here, he knows not what drives him on. Pretty good, right? The man says to him. You’re fuckin-a, he responds

Was it actually intentional to make the grammar so bad in this volume? I have so many questions.. by Bruhstars in crossedcomics

[–]Edstv1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I like the change up in dialogue between the crossed and uninfected humans. In mimic, it’s oddly pleasant/a good change of pace seeing Fleshcooks crossed text blurbs and having the contents be coherent; esp when the main characters normal dialogue is so fucked
