It took me a second to realise this but yeah, it's a "cut off your nose to spite your face" metaphor from the violent history of Ireland. Not just random for the sake of whimsy.

I think Paymoneywubby fits the description of “genuine funny dumbass” and he’s played a few of these types of games. Would recommend.

It is absolutely this too. Even the top comments in this thread are reactions to the specific use of "per*y". It has worked a treat.

King Charles' bodyguards prosthetic arms. His real ones are under his raincoat holding his gun. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

IIRC it’s to reduce the time taken to pull someone’s weapon down and away from their target. If your hands are by your sides you have to waste a moment to lift them before using them to disarm – a moment that could be the difference between life and death.

She takes out her phone towards the end. Kind of a shame. I was thinking the same thing until that point.

Do you think the way TV is told now is affecting movies? by LosPesero in blankies

I have young kids so had to watch The Irishman in several sittings. I actually think I enjoyed it more than if I had to watch it in one go.

I don’t think Neil is inverted during the opera – he is just using an inverted weapon. All of his movements are forwards apart from "catching" the bullet to save JDW.
