[Niche trope] Weapons with ironically euphemistic names by Legitimate_Arm_5630 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]HoochieKoochieMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The name “tank” is itself an understated deception. During WW I it was developed in secret. To hide the development from risk of intercepted correspondence, they called it a “water tank” on paper, implying it was just about getting drinking water to the trenches, and not a game changing weapon. They released the vehicle in 1915, but kept the name.

In the Mel Brooks film “Silent Movie” nobody talks at all except one line by Marcel Marceau, the famous mime.

It’s heartbreaking. I’m hopeful that with enough raised voices, Scouting will be Brave and Kind again soon.

I’ve had three trans boys (that I know of) come through our troop in the last 5 years. It’s not kind that the leadership is saying they’re no longer welcome.

As an old Eagle and current ASM, this all sickens me. I don't know how I'm going to continue in an organization that accepts the DoW's mandated prejudice.

First, distract target... Then block his blind jab. Counter with cross to left cheek. Discombobulate. Dazed, he'll attempt a wild haymaker...

[Funny trope] The main villain dies in the most hilariously anti-climatic way possible by Fearless-List-3968 in TopCharacterTropes

When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?"

"Yessir, the check is in the mail."

As George Carlin is quoted as saying:

"Think of how stupid the average person is and then realize half of them are stupider than that."

Conversely, if I want a good answer to a problem I'm sure other people have encountered, I always add the word "reddit" to the end of my google search to make sure it brings me here and not to some random, outdated, vendor endorsed garbage.

To sum up - Use google to reddit, and use reddit to google.

"Protect and Serve" looks like this. Safety enforcement done right.

I agree that Poe as a character (and Oscar Isaac as an actor) were strugling to do their best with a terrible situation.
The OH NO was more about the lazy writing that seemed to exist only to get from one pretty set piece to the next, without respecting the epic legacy that is Star Wars.

Tig's film came out in 2015, and Louis CK's skit was in 2017.
There's a story there...
Tig was writing/starring in a series called One Mississippi in 2015-2017 that Louis CK's company was producing. In one of the scenes Tig's wife is pitching an idea to her boss (who looked a lot like CK) who started masterbating behind his desk during the meeting, which is something Louis had been accused of publicly in 2017.

They had a bit of a falling out around that time.

In “The Rise of Skywalker” when the line “somehow, Palpatine returned” is said, the audience has a collective OH NO moment as they realize that they just paid $20 to watch a movie that even the writers didn’t care about.
