I've got a friend with a strong hand for real. Hes got a great sense of humor about it. Years ago we worked in a pizza place together, so countless people will never know their food was prepared by it lol
Weirdly we’ve seen a handful of vw bugs this week and explained to my 12yo ‘slug bug no slug backs’. He’s having the hardest time wrapping his mind around a game all about punching each other lol
It's "that's what she said" for me. I don't even need to say it out loud at this point, I just stop and give my parents/siblings a look, and they know.
Bah! Not that time but I’ve drop the face one several times a week. I try to be careful with mom ones because I’m his stepmom, but that has absolutely happened as a reflex and it’s quite hilarious.
I went to a museum with my wife and daughter today and at the end I went to get the car to pick them up. My wife said, "Come on, we'll wait for dada at the Uber circle" and my daughter said "what's an Uber circle?" My friend, I cannot describe the restraint required to prevent myself from saying "Your mom's an Uber circle"
Bahahaha I was just talking to my mom about buying the kids new backpacks for school and she said i don’t know, why buy them new backpacks. You and your brother would rip the straps off every year. And I said yeah. It was fun to use your backpack as a spinning projectile like nunchucks and hit your friends with it. They don’t let kids have fun anymore so the new backpacks will be fine. She was not impressed
Haha I commented on the jansport post how my mom had 1 from elementary through high school. I got the same and it lasted a year. Fall on my back off the skateboard, throw it across the pavement, definitely spin in it, spin it around…
I don’t know why but we had a phase to of trying to get other peoples’ bags stuck in trees, that couldn’t have helped either.
The ‘that’s kinda rude’ just made me guffaw. No shit, lil one. Older siblings also always won. It was basically like passing on family and friend bully trauma.
He’s the eldest and so freaking nice. Shares with his siblings without being told. I’m the eldest and.. well I never sat in the backseat for starters lol (obv as a small kid I did).
Even this summer, kids playing colors in the pool and they went suuuper slow for the slow swimmer so they could still participate though they can’t really swim. No one said anything mean. We would’ve absolutely taken advantage and made them be ‘it’ until they cried growing up.
Tbh, I thought it was a shit game back when I was a kid too. My cousins used to be so crazy about it that they’d basically beat the crap out of each other any time bug went by. So my aunt had to make a rule that if you leave a bruise slugging someone, you’re grounded for a week. My sisters and I just never really played, we were too scared watching our bat crap crazy cousins
lol- I hated slug bug as a kid. I would just yell “I’m not playing!!!” While getting pummeled by the kids I shared the backseat with. They thought it was hilarious.
Is shit-talking with your friends a generational thing? Have the youths stopped showing love by demonstrating the strength of their friendship through brutal quips?
Been hanging out with this new circle of friends who are early Gen Z. We're ordering food and one of them orders something labeled spicy because he "wants something extra spicy today". Food comes and I kid you not he can only eat one bite before he has to fold. Someone else goes "Oh, not spicy enough?". At this point I can almost see the future (or at least what it would have been like with other friends of mine): We're laying into him for the remainder of the day and years later this will still be brought up regularly. He is never gonna live that one down. But to my surprise spice enjoyer simply says: "Man, don't be like that." and that was that.
Maybe they are kinder souls. And that's a good thing.
The part where cross (the guy in the wheel chair ) is being seduced to take the keys and the girl is suggesting she will go down on him and he responds with a particular line kills me every time
It's not a Rocky Horror reference at all. David Cross is just making fun of his hand because he's a dick. The butler character is just a stereotype. It's not like he's Tim Curry's "handyman" in this movie either.
I learned a year or so ago that the opening of the second movie, the scene with the raccoon on the tension line thingy, is a shot for shot parody of a stallone movie about rock climbing!
It randomly came on one day and I was 1000% the DiCaprio meme as soon as I saw it lol
I loved the character that played Anna Farris daughter. She mimicked the original character so well...But I thought her balloon lips were part of the bit. I was so wrong.
He basically got screwed. Get A Life was one of the most hilarious shows ever but Fox cancelled it too early. Then Cabin Boy could have launched his movie career, but that went up in flames. Him and Adam Resnick wrote it expecting Tim Burton to direct, but Burton bailed on them to make Ed Wood and Resnick had to direct it himself. He'd never directed a movie before (and never did again) and the studio just threw them under the bus and buried the marketing so it never had a chance. Since then he's basically been a C-list comedic actor and he's always underutilized.
So when this came out, everyone was talking about it at school and I did not want to be left out. So I rented it but for some reason my dad was like "Uh, I think I better watch this with you". That scene with her peeing on the carpet, my dad completely lost it. He laughed and laughed and could not stop laughing. I paused the video and he was still laughing. It got really awkward as I didn't find it that funny. I was 14 at the time.
We were also raised to never say anything and put on a smile if the joke went too far or just didn't really feel like "banter". Because then you're whiny little bitch baby that can't take a joke.
They just don’t make any good comedies anymore, I watched Superbad for the first time in years the other night and haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. Now the only “comedies” we have are sprinkled in superhero movies
Shit talking is a redneck love language. I learned real quick it wasn’t universal when I moved to PNW and everybody just thought I was mean and aggressive. Now I’m back in Nevada and I’m not funny anymore and I’m sad. I used to have a quick wit that made people here laugh and I miss it. I’m just nice now I guess.
Even worse was the big summer family blockbuster movie of 1999, Wild Wild West, in which Will Smith and the villain in a wheelchair exchange racist jokes and hanicap jokes back and forth every time they meet:
