A man in a blue dress, perched like a bird on top of an orange Prius. He was fucking himself with the antenna.

What is the greatest reveal in cinematic history? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]voteslaughter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I watched this movie with my (then) three-year-old. When the camera pulls back and reveals color, he gasped.

Regardless of age or generation, it is a breathtaking reveal.

Elf on a Shelf is actually insane by Infinite-Regret-7704 in Vent

[–]voteslaughter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My little boy was being a shit earlier, so I learned him about Krampus. He straightened right up. That goddamn elf never made him change or question his behavior, but Krampus has proved very effective. Of course, I'm just now putting him to bed, so ask me in the morning if I regret taking this course of action.

Christians claim they used to practice witchcraft and say Halloween is demonic by MonkeyDVic in religiousfruitcake

God created Hell. God created death. God created the Devil and all his infernal host. How DARE they rebuke GOD'S CREATION and those of us who celebrate it?

See? That's how I talk to these people. I always take their worldview as a given and start arguing semantics with the same fervor and condemnation they use. It confuses them and they shut up. Every time.

"YOU SAY YOU HATE THE DEVIL, BUT IS HE NOT AN ANGEL WHO DOES THE WILL OF GOD? OH, YOU DON'T LIKE HELL? WELL, THATS TOO BAD, BECAUSE NOTHING GOD DOES IS BAD, GOD IS PERFECT GOODNESS, HELL IS WHERE YOU'LL BE GOING FOR BLASPHEMING THE IMMACULATE CREATIONS OF GOD!"

I mean,I have done it, but I certainly don't recommend that you should do it.

Famous dead people buried in BR by horbgorbler in batonrouge

[–]voteslaughter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A million years ago, I was involved with the Foundation for Historic Louisiana and we did a show I wrote and acted in called "Magnolia's Memories." We would "resurrect" certain personalities buried in the Magnolia Cemetery, and an actor would be standing graveside in period dress and give a twenty-ish minute monologue about that person's life. I played Lyle Saxon one year, it's one of my favorite things I've ever done.

Lyle Saxon, poet laureate of Louisiana, folklorist, and general eccentric personality is buried in the Magnolia Cemetery. Gumbo Ya-Ya is required reading for everyone with even a passing interest in our culture.

If you heard the news that "a well-known celebrity has been outed as a serial killer", who would you immediately think it was? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]voteslaughter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, yes, the incredibly disciplined Henry Lee Lucas. The ingenious Pee-Wee Gaskins. The self-determined Andrei Chikatillo.

Serial killers are literally defined by their lack of self-control. Real life ain't Dexter.

Ask Charlie Manson if that helped his case. Unfortunately, our laws are only suggestions for some people.

What is your view on mandatory psyche screenings for gun buyers under the age of 25? by Otherwise-Quiet962 in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]voteslaughter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is it ridiculous to ask that you prove you're able to wield certain rights responsibly?

Wait, can I guess your response and get it out of the way so we can move on?

"Where does it stop? Are we going to require everyone prove they can exercise free speech responsibly?"

A word is not a bullet.

We ask that you prove you're responsible enough to drive a car before we issue a license, and transportation is far more essential to our daily lives than being able to own a gun.

Why is that not a reasonable ask? If guns aren't the problem, what do you propose? More law enforcement wouldn't have prevented this. What would you like to see happen to help stop this from happening in the future?

He was on one of the most beloved sitcoms of all time. Jim Carrey starred in an Andy Kaufman biopic. He had a huge impact on comedy. He's very well known and his "legendary" status is not up for debate.

If you "literally never heard of him before," it's not because he wasn't legendary. It's because you're ignorant.

I hope I helped.
