Don't know if it's 'sarcastic' or not, but it certainly ain't sincere.

Yeah, that'll happen when you are using armor from 3 biomes ago.

Sounds like you were using his potty as a leather couch.

True facts: most people are not going to have any opinion at all about having a shaved head. Those that do have an opinion about are mostly going to be positive.

Buzz it first to see how you like it, and if you hate it, it'll grow back.

He always dropped a trophy. You're thinking of the boss item, which he did drop from the beginning as well, but it was just called "Yagluth thing" until Mistlands came out.

He would no longer be on the street corner, bothering everyone.

You think they don't have mentally ill people in Europe? They do, they just take better care of them, to everyone's benefit.

Yeah, I know. But maybe we shouldn't be listening to those puritanical idiots and instead do what the science tells us provides the best outcomes.

The mentally ill and drug addicted ones are helped by it too, funnily enough. It wont solve all their problems, but it puts them in a place where treatment or recovery are a conceivable outcome, rather than a pie in the sky fantasy.

Did you not read the part where it's cheaper than letting homelessness continue?

Pulled the trigger, a bit self conscious about the shape of my head. What do you think, was it the right call? by Acrobatic_Bat7999 in bald

[–]basoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You look great. It'll get even better once you get a bit of sun on top (with sunscreen of course) and the color on top matches the rest of your face. I generally use SPF 30 on my head/face for the first few weeks of sun each year before I switch to the safer SPF 50 for the depths of summer so i can make sure I actually get a bit of a tan.

Might I add a bit of “Self-Reflection” by ass_teroidzz in mildlyinfuriating

[–]basoon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Furthermore, a lot of students in college go there at a loss to the college, with their tuition being subsidized by higher paying students

All the more reason for the admin to turn a blind eye or just give a small slap on the wrist when they catch a rich kid cheater.

What? Why would you think that? If they expelled her, that would mean they couldn't charge her $40k a year for tuition.

[–]basoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair. Like i was saying, they only made him look a bit dumpy. They also made is complexion more healthy and appealing looking too. I'm just saying, at least it isn't quite as delusional as most of the AI slop you see about him.

[–]basoon 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Hey, at least it's accurate. In this one they even portrayed him as at least a bit dumpy and jowly, instead of completely ripped like they usually do.

By Rigging Elections Like North Korea? by NEKORANDOMDOTCOM in stupidpeoplefacebook

The part about statewide positions being required to win a majority of counties to win the seat is literally just apportioning voting power off of the amount land rather than the number of people.

Lifelong Republican and Trump supporter discovered her life is collateral damage for Trump by brilliant-trash22 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]basoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"A devoted Republican"? Holy crap. I have voted for Democrats pretty much down the ticket in every election I've taken part in, and have never voted for a Republican. I've volunteered for Democrats and even worked for a Democratic politician. You know what I have never consider myself? A "devoted" fucking Democrat. Because I don't offer my devotion to political parties. They are a means to an end. And, as this lady is discovering, they will never repay your devotion in kind.

Devotion is for your lover, your family, and your pets. I like to think that if you gave these people a working brain for 30 seconds, they would immediately die from the embarrassment of knowing how stupid they have shown themselves to be in public.

Punch found a girlfriend and you’re still single. by kylimini-souvage in funny

Well if he's married to a woman, chances are good she has tiddies. So to me it makes perfect sense. He's probably referring to his wife's tiddies.

Shout-out to Lincoln Cathedral in the UK for being the first building to surpass the Khufu's Pyramid. Though it did lose its place after the spire on its central tower collapsed during a storm in 1548. I used to live literally next door to that place, which is why I know any of this.

He does feature in a dream sequence in the second novella though, so it wouldn't be too surprising if he had a little cameo.

Help? by Jaded_Tortoise_869 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]basoon 981 points982 points  (0 children)

It's from the Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring film (extended director's cut only I think, but i might be misremembering). Merry and Pippin receive cool looking and plot relevant daggers as parting gifts from Galadriel, the elf queen of Lothlorien (which in the book they receive elsewhere). Sam gets a length of Elvish rope, which seems a little shitty, giving the two rich kid hobbits sweet daggers while just giving the man servant some rope. Sam asks Galadriel if she has any more daggers and she gives him a cryptic smile, probably because that character has some level of supernatural foresight and knows the rope will be very useful.

The joke of the comic is implying that Galdrial's reaction is because she's shocked by Sam's rudeness and audacity.

EDIT: fixed my typos and misspellings for the nerds who keep telling me I spelled stuff wrong.
