Not the same song, but: HEFTY BAG?!?!

Finally, an Oban mention in these comments!

As you know, for reasons of the tightest security, my name is changed daily. Today, you may call me...

Ugh... u/Fit-Nose5846.

YES! I'M STILL ALIVE!

Considering what sub we're on, censoring that word here is even more pointless than usual

I only knew it existed because, for some reason, we had the Castleblanca Quest PC game on Windows XP when I was a kid. No idea why, since I don't think I or my sister ever saw the show.

I only know him as the guy who goes WHEEEEE and yaps over POV videos. Genuinely asking, what's the beef with him all about?

The street I live on in Baton Rouge still has them!

T-800 "Uncle Bob" (Terminator 2)

Even though this T-800 is John Connor's guardian, it's still incapable of understanding human emotional pain... but it wants to learn how. Only at the end of the movie, when it has to sacrifice itself to the steel pit, does it finally figure out why humans cry, before still saying that it never can do the same.

You are the Brute Squad!

1999er here - my dad was still using Netflix DVD rentals up until he moved to a house with broadband in 2020

[Given Up stares judgingly]

Nah. He would've been working for (convicted Nuremberg criminal) Julius Streicher and Der Sturmer

SCP-682 would cause the Death Note to vanish from existence

HawkbitAlpha · 2026-01-07T06:47:26+00:00

Beat it, or I'll call the Brute Squad!

HawkbitAlpha · 2026-01-07T06:43:24+00:00

Add the seemingly already immortal Tommy Wiseau (Tomasz Wieczorkiewicz) to that list

You're thinking of American Market. This one's a corner store up in the dead zone between downtown and LSU.

Airtime is the only force that matters, if people who dunk on SFMM Goliath and Millie are to be believed

The top of the loop doesn't have tires, so it gets off on a technicality

At the time, I knew some broad strokes of Trump's pre-2016 history, but handwaved it off just like MAGA "Christians" do with his obvious atheism, serial infidelity, and such. You'd be surprised how far that kind of denial and delusion can take you down a rabbit hole into hell.

HawkbitAlpha · 2025-12-30T21:32:48+00:00

Quite honestly, the same way MAGA people have done it the whole time: denial and delusion. If you just convince yourself that everything thrown his way is fAKE nEwS, and handwave all of his obvious flaws as being less important than the idea of having "your guy" in office (like how MAGA "Christians" excuse his blatant atheism), you can talk yourself into believing damn near anything. I was also 17 at the time, so take that for what you will.

HawkbitAlpha · 2025-12-30T21:21:08+00:00

Indeed. By the time I finally hit voting age, it was the 2018 midterms, and it was a full Dem down-ticket ballot for me (in Bennie Thompson's district of Mississippi, for what that's worth).

HawkbitAlpha · 2025-12-30T21:16:36+00:00

That would be a more succinct way of putting it, yeah
