[–]UnnecessaryPhilology 5 points6 points ago

Originally panties meant men's trousers. Even as late as 1945 we see that original sense in works like Betty MacDonald's Egg and I:

A little boy named Waldo wet his panties while we were standing in front of the class for reading.

Weird.

Anyways, the word has also meant girls' underwear beginning in the 1900s.

That second picture... I will never look that cool. Never.

He's on the beach! That doesn't even make any sense!

I said that about Heath Ledger. Look what happened there!

[–]HarryLillis 18 points19 points ago

He fucked you ever so gently?

[–]windowlicker9k 2 points3 points ago

It's not about fucking, it's about sending a message

Depends on if he's Knights Tale, Brokeback or Joker.

I hate to break it to you, but you are most certainly not straight.

JGL transcends sexuality.

[–]ChickenShoes 14 points15 points ago

Like a male Zooey Deschanel.

[–]Proditus 11 points12 points ago

This entire movie gives all viewers much sexual and emotional confusion.

[–]ChickenShoes 5 points6 points ago

They're just so beautiful.

[–]EnsoZero 0 points1 point ago

Damn even JGL can get friend zoned.

[–]7_a_vv_5 1 point2 points ago

[–]Revikus -2 points-1 points ago

WHOA.

What movie is this?

[–]Neuronless 2 points3 points ago

500 days of summer

[–]LtBeard -1 points0 points ago

500*

[–]Revikus -1 points0 points ago

Wait.

I already knew the answer.

Yet I still asked.

I'm stupid.

[–]Proditus 2 points3 points ago

[500] Days of Summer. Romance movie between JGL and Zooey Deschanel. Probably the best romance-ish movie I've seen in recent years, though it has its own unique quirks.

I'm surprised you've never heard about it. It's pretty popular, especially here

[–]thisguy012 0 points1 point ago

I'm a girl, and think that ZD is adorable but don't feel attracted to her. Cobie Smulders? Different story.

[–]jgibran 4 points5 points ago

They would have the most beautiful babies. Hopefully they wouldn't inherit Zooey's skill for playing the same god damn hipster in every movie.

[–]NoDiggityNoDoubt[!] 57 points58 points ago

I watched Looper yesterday, and I gotta say, JG-L did a great job adopting BW's facial mannerisms.

Aside from that, the movie was not what I was expecting. I was pleasantly thrown for a loop.

[–]male_here 11 points12 points ago

Why did JG-L look different in the movie?

[–]MrLurksALot 21 points22 points ago

So Bruce and JG-L could look the same for the sake of the story.

[–]Mimsy_borogoves 4 points5 points ago

I thought it was unnecessary for JGL to wear make-up to try and mimic a young Willis. Both their performances implied the same character pretty spot on if you ask me.

[–]MrLurksALot 1 point2 points ago

I agree. His performance was great, and you could definitely make the argument that the make-up and prosthetics were unnecessary.

[–]FriesWithThat 17 points18 points ago

Because fucking with Bruce Willis' face would have been inconceivable.

[–]Proditus 10 points11 points ago

He's supposed to be a younger Bruce Willis. For the most part, he looked well enough like Bruce Willis thanks to the marvels of prosthetics, and he did a really good job adapting to his mannerisms and speech to make it believable.

[–]thehornedone 4 points5 points ago

Because makeup and prosthetics.

[–]squarewulf 23 points24 points ago

Is this the opening to Rosanne?

[–]Deradius 5 points6 points ago

"If what doesn't kill us is making us stronger / We're gonna last longer / Like the Great Wall of China / Or that rabbit with the drum..."

I believe the show jumped the shark sometime around when the theme song got lyrics.

Or possibly when Becky got replaced.

Or maybe after the opening credits ended in the first episode.

[–]irish711 4 points5 points ago

Or Growing Pains.

[–]Whiskey_Throat 10 points11 points ago

I read this in Edward Norton's voice.

[–]br4in5 8 points9 points ago

After reading this, I proceeded to read this in his disinterested "I am Jack's ___" voice from Fight Club. Still crying from laughter.

[–]whitewateractual -2 points-1 points ago

That's usually how I react when I see cute things. Advice: Never go to a dog show.

[–]JustFinishedBSG 7 points8 points ago

Nature is so unfair, why he is becoming more attractive every year wtf

[–]Rocketbird 3 points4 points ago

Most guys top out in their mid-late 20s, so it's up to him to maintain it now.

[–]Mrthatoneguy 11 points12 points ago

So no one finds it weird that he looks that fit and well at age 91?

[–]Laser-circus 8 points9 points ago

This reminds me of how awkward it was when I watched "Mysterious Skin" with my parents.

[–]Gregsbe 4 points5 points ago

That movie is what made me fall in love with him. It showed his diversity as an actor and how he's willing to go way out of his comfort zone to perform his best.

[–]crismess 0 points1 point ago

Same. He was just so naked and vulnerable and MEOW.

[–]intheBASS 7 points8 points ago

Dear god, he was dead the whole time.

Not even a week old and you have already reposted it.

[–]dominobiatch 82 points83 points ago

OP is pretty open about it being a repost in the title. I bet there's heaps of people that haven't seen it- and whoever has will probably realise it from the title.

[–]Awesomeade 7 points8 points ago

Technically it's a crosspost as well, as opposed to a repost.

People need to get better about ignoring things they have seen before on this site. Stuff gets upvoted for a reason.

[–]FriesWithThat 0 points1 point ago

Well, technically he crossposted his own repost of a repost. But that's like creating a special tax shelter in the Caymans where hopefully your repost is ignored, laundered, and submitted in a fresh subreddit where the auditors are too busy discussing 3rd Rock to notice anything has happened.

[–]SilversunPickups 4 points5 points ago

The fishy thing is, OP says its a repost from /r/gifs. But /u/JeffreyFrank never mentions an older post from /r/gifs. o.0

Edit: Case solved.

[–]looseleafer 4 points5 points ago

He posted it to /r/gifs at the same time. IMO not a big deal posting a relevant thing to subreddits that it has not been on before

[–]_Wolfos 0 points1 point ago

Yes, but it was just on the frontpage 2 days ago. It's bullshit to repost so quickly.

[–]Hobo4Craft 6 points7 points ago

He said it's a repost in the title. Great detective work!

[–]949paintball 8 points9 points ago

I've never seen it. And it doesn't look it's been on /r/movies, so I don't think it's fair to start criticizing him.

[–]fawker 3 points4 points ago

Thanks, Dwight.

[–]FasterThan_Light[S] 1 point2 points ago

Sorry, Didn't know it had already been posted. I found it here thought /r/movies might like it..

[–]JefferyFrank 0 points1 point ago

Understandable, it's a good habit to check karmadecay before you post, though.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]ThrowawayNTTN 5 points6 points ago

How does he have too much time on his hands? He just used karmadecay. Anyone can do it. Takes like 20 seconds tops.

[–]IamBabcock -1 points0 points ago

I think even using Karmadecay is proof that you have too much time on your hands. If you're getting bent out of shape over reposts and need to prove it's a repost...maybe some outside time is in order.

[–]ThrowawayNTTN -1 points0 points ago

You aren't making any sense. I was frustrated by blatant repost the first week I learned about reddit. I used to spend about 10-15 minutes a day if even. Now that has doubled but I still hate reposts. Brings down the quality of the content and keeps it less interesting.

[–]IamBabcock 0 points1 point ago

I'm on Reddit fairly regularly. I usually check it from my phone every few hours and see what's on the first few pages. I rarely come across reposts and when I do I don't make a big deal out of it assuming the person posting hadn't seen it before or that others up voting it haven't seen it. If you don't like a repost down vote it and move on.

[–]J_Jammer 3 points4 points ago

Stay to the end. It's worth it.

[–]PeteTNT 5 points6 points ago

Is Looper worth seeing?

[–]SeriouslyLaughing 13 points14 points ago

Yep. There isn't a single frame of a main plot point in the trailer. You will pleasantly surprised when you see what the film is actually about.

[–]amodelqueso 0 points1 point ago

I saw it twice this weekend, and I cannot stop recommending it to everyone I see. It's one of the best and most original movies I've seen. I'm considering writing up a giant post analyzing the entire movie to hopefully convince more people to go see it. It has a spectacular climax that wraps up a satisfying story I've still got playing in my head since I saw it. Please go see it, I promise you won't regret it.

[–]J_Jammer 0 points1 point ago

Yes.

[–]theislandking 3 points4 points ago

I will always associate him with 3rd rock. I really can't believe he's as big as he is now. Man, does time fly.

Holy crap, that gif goes perfectly in time with the Gojira song's breakdown that I'm listening to right now (not sure which song since I haven't heard it before and I got a freakin' .ape file :/ )... Also, the gif is truly a thing of magnificence.

[–]whodewho -2 points-1 points ago

That's one actor that i have never understood what all the fuss is about.

[–]gadafgadaf 0 points1 point ago

it's like he gets older then younger several times in the series

[–]monybologna 0 points1 point ago

make a new tab and have this playing in the background while watching this gif.

Can someone please tell me how to do the morphing effect? Like it's not a crossfade, as one photo morphs into the next so seamlessly. I've wanted to know for years but never been able to find an answer! (windows not mac)

That last picture is Bruce Willis not Gordon-Levitt.

My mum used to say I looked like him when he was in 3rd rock from the sun, this would have been a compliment however I'm a girl.

[–]Directors_Cut 1 point2 points ago

Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Leo Dicaprio will always look like kids to me. Its like they never grew up.

We must find out their secret...

[–]honeyandvinegar 2 points3 points ago

Dude, Dicaprio looks old and slightly overweight. He grew up.

[–]Directors_Cut 4 points5 points ago

Overweight you say?

[–]Anhedonique -3 points-2 points ago

Hello reddit. How many times do I have to see this gif on my frontpage?

[–]guybehindawall -4 points-3 points ago

It's not evolution. It's just growing up.

[–]sup3rspiffy 0 points1 point ago

So much similarity between him, James Franco and Heath Ledger...

[–]whatusernamewhat -2 points-1 points ago

did a straight man just achieve a boner for another man?

[–]TJ_McWeaksauce 1 point2 points ago

I didn't realize JGL had such an awkward-looking phase in the early 2000's. He looked a little too thin and big-headed.

[–]Poseidon-SS 9 points10 points ago

Have you never seen "3rd rock from the sun"

[–]Dry_Oasis -2 points-1 points ago

I didn't read the title, and genuinely thought that this was Heath Ledger. Only realised when it went past 2008, and I got confused.

[–]SilverSeven[!] -2 points-1 points ago

His hair must grow insanely fast

[–]noiplah -2 points-1 points ago

Good thing that we will still get to see Die Hard sequels after Bruce Willis is gone.

edit: Bruce Wayne, Bruce Willis. JGL is rocking it.
