I cast BULLET!

Outlaw Star had magic and magic bullets.
And a rather unfortunate navigation system
Expecto parabellum!
You fool, I expected you to expect to prepare for war!

At first I thought it’s about political power.
Still tracks though.
clown dude is really clever with the jokes
This is one of the most commonly used images on my D&D party’s Discord channel:
AI generated memes are so wild
Especially if there exist loads of versions of the joke that were made pre-AI. Who hasn’t seen the gandalf with an AK-47 meme that was made 20 years ago?
why do americans think guns are so powerful? they act like people who haven’t been nuked or genocided
what?
try asking your mom
I’m afraid I have to ban you. Your original comment is hateful and toxic towards a particular group of people, millions of whom are innocent. My users deserve better than to be threatened and insulted by the likes of you.
You’ll be left with this:
- many Americans campaign for gun control, meaning we want fewer guns available
- citizens of countries other than the USA think guns are powerful
- wishing nuking or genocide on anyone is evil
there’s so much wrong with your statement that I don’t have time today to scrutinize it all. I wish you the best of luck in your personal growth journey. Goodbye.

“If you hold a gun and I hold a gun, we can talk about the law. If you hold a knife and I hold a knife, we can talk about rules. If you come empty-handed, and I come empty-handed, we can talk about reason. But if you hold a gun and I only have a knife, then the truth lies in your hand. If you have a gun and I have nothing, then what you hold in your hands isn’t just a weapon, it’s my life."
The Rwanda genocide wasn’t carried out with guns as the primary weapon. It was machetes and fire.
It’s only very rarely one-on-one like a movie gunfight.
The Rwanda genocide wasn’t carried out with guns as the primary weapon. It was machetes and fire.
It was volumes of people, primarily. An oppressed underclass poisoned with fascist ideology who overwhelmed they’re wealthier tribal neighbors not unlike how the French ended up butchering their aristocracy at the end of the 18th century.
Had the Tutsis been more heavily armed, they might have given as well as they took.
The genocide ended with the victory of the rebels led by Kagame. They were mostly Tutsis.
The armed Tutsis did indeed hit back.
Now imagine if someone came in there with a gun. That would change things. In which direction, I couldn’t say.
Sometimes they did. It’s not like nobody got shot in the Rwandan genocide. Lots of people did, and when it happened, it went like it almost always does, the people with guns killed a bunch of people with impunity unless the people they were shooting at also happened to have guns.
What do you think people use to commit genocide?
Oh that’s right, guns!
The Nazis built the gas chambers because shooting crowds of women and children was giving their low end grunts PTSD, even the hardcore SS. They needed something where you didn’t have to watch them die.
Do you think they can get anyone into the chambers without guns?
I think it’s the ‘equalizer’ aspect. A knight would have to train for years to be proficient in swordplay, horse riding, and usage of a lance. Longbowman had to train from childhood. A wizard has to study magic for years.
A peasant could pick up a gun and theoretically kill any of them.
Americans in general are also more familiar with guns than swords or bows, so the “effectiveness” is more intuitive for our minds.
that’s what i think is so perplexing
modern war completely negates your individuality, i mean unless you count your individually starved ass, but uhhh the world won’t
maybe if you’re lucky your incineration shadow on a wall will become part of an artistic photograph
there’s nothing to equalize but Americans think a glock and sunglasses mean something other than your suicide or a childhood gun accident
Is this the same America where words controlled the people who controlled the guns on 6January?
Yes, but also that doesn’t really mean anything in relation to what’s being talked about. Americans have more exposure to firearms on average I’m sure the folks of Svalbard would have a similar thing going on, same with basically any country with mandatory enlistment. Whoopty fucken doo folks can be controlled with words this observation was first made in writing in the fucking early bronze age when mammoths were still extent.
American magic.
Yeah, this is the first / most widely known instance of this trope that I am aware of, call it the Indiana Jones manuever maybe?
Wasn’t that supposed to be a big fight scene but Harrison Ford was sick? So they audibled to this?
Watching that clip he looks sick
That’s the story anyways… That they repeated consistently throughout many, many interviews
*adlibbed
Audible is a term for changing from a designed play to a new one on the fly.
If I understood that correctly, a game play, as a specific term for US Football. And gets that name by people screaming the new play.
Audible is something you can hear.
oh right, that would explain why so many people in this thread, including me, had no idea what they were on about.
Oh, TIL.
He had the shits iirc
Yeah, he was sick from drinking the local water, and was trying not to shit his pants from the diarrhea. He was also running an awful fever; Indy looks so sweaty in this scene because Harrison was running like a 103 fever.
What in the fuck is that pokemon one though
its from a “banned” pokemon episode - https://archive.org/download/pokemon-the-banned-episodes-collection/Pokémon - 035 - The Legend of Dratini [DarkDream].mp4
in case you want to check other such episodes - https://archive.org/details/pokemon-the-banned-episodes-collection
Absolute legend, thank you so much!
at your service, kind sire
It’s how Ash got all Dem Taurus
makes me think of the wizard with gun skit, makes me laugh every time
This is a meme where the source of its illustration perfectly portray the meme, even within its own context.
I cast fist.
Basically this guy: https://youtube.com/shorts/NhQcqqMAdTI
Something about the big bad in the first MHA movie whipping out a gun and shooting somebody just hit hard. Like this is a world where people can whip out black holes and use their skin to create anything they want, yet a pistol made everyone stop immediately and collectively shit themselves.
2 of the strongest sorcerer’s in JJK school vs this guy and his gun lol
Jjk,?
Jewy jewy kaisanewy
I think it’s Jujutsu Kaisen
I mean, the dude is just efficient. He shot the girl who was basically powerless (being the target host for a godlike being is not a power). Using the right tool for the job really.
