He never actually says this...

What were the real lines?

[–]belflandluvr 3 points4 points ago

I think it is said in the show, just by different characters.

[–]mongo_the_terrible 3 points4 points ago

No it wasn't. It's from King of the Hill.

[–]i_done_goof 364 points365 points ago

my whole childhood was just sex jokes masked in fictional talking infants

[–]GAY_WEED_DAD_69 193 points194 points ago

Rocco's Modern Life was the worst/best for that...

[–]solidsnake2730 87 points88 points ago

Chokey Chicken.

[–]DadFatherson 52 points53 points ago

The Episode where they "milked' Heifer. And that one where Rocko's picking berries, and a monkey runs out of the bush, screaming, holding his junk. :0/

[–]ion8 24 points25 points ago

"Oh baby, Oh baby, Oh baby" "ROCKO?"

[–]JJEE 14 points15 points ago

holy shit

[–]ABlazedPanda 1 point2 points ago

Oh. Your. God.

[–]doublechris 38 points39 points ago

Oh man, the clown episode. Mr Bighead talks about how much he hates "clowns", but discovers that he might like being a "clown" himself. Starts going out late, dressing like a "clown", gets discovered by his boss who is also a "secret clown".

Kids cartoons, eh?

[–]byakko 7 points8 points ago

I think at some point all that gotta be said is that good cartoons are timeless - you can watch and appreciate them at any age because they age so well.

Like Batman the Animated Series. It was a superhero cartoon for the young and adults, with plotlines and character development better than many live action shows.

Compare to like, Ben 10 in the current generation, it really doesn't look like it will age well.

[–]RyanKinder 1 point2 points ago

Comparing batman to Ben 10 is unfair. That's like saying there were zero bad cartoons when you were growing up.

[–]byakko 2 points3 points ago

Instead of BtAS, I could've used Avatar the Last Airbender. My point wasn't that the past generation had no bad cartoons, but that BtAS clearly has aged well over the years. Since AtLA is this generation, I can't use it to talk about 'aging' well.

But I should have pointed out a bad cartoon from BtAS' time to make a comparison, you're right. Street Sharks for example. I actually like Street Sharks for what it was, but it's definitely not in the same league as BtAS and hasn't aged well at all.

[–]The_Doctor_00 16 points17 points ago

I think looney toons/Merrie melodies did it best/worst as you say long before Rocko, and way more subtlety... Though every good cartoon does this, it is the gift of a great cartoon when you can enjoy it as a kid and the when your older enjoy it in another level.

[–]MrBlahStrikesAgain 9 points10 points ago

What if the only reason you like those jokes now is because they put them in the cartoons you enjoyed as a child?

[–]The_Doctor_00 2 points3 points ago

That would certainly true to an extent, there is a high level of nostalgia, however, I do think it's beyond nostalgia. Because it's not just about humour, as I find enjoyment in reading books I read as a kid and did not grasp all the meaning, or the historical background of a topic. Re-reading something after you've learned more is an enjoyable experience as well, because you get more out of it.

[–]MrBlahStrikesAgain 2 points3 points ago

I meant something more along the lines of the media from our childhood subtly brainwashes us to appreciate a certain type of humor.

[–]HellsRaider 2 points3 points ago

He's onto us, get him!

[–]jettrooper33 0 points1 point ago

Quick! Put him in the sack!

[–]Dancing_monkey 0 points1 point ago

Then they're doing it right.

[–]brianbrianbrian 3 points4 points ago

Especially all the racism.

[–]BloodyNobody 6 points7 points ago

A lot of the racist ones were already banned when I was growing up (90's).

For example, I never saw this one or any one with a blackface character.

[–]Sarria22 4 points5 points ago

Wow, that was pretty bad.

[–]bsonk 1 point2 points ago

Wow. That is the most racist cartoon I have ever seen.

[–]yekim18 0 points1 point ago

i appreciate old cartoons, but damn

[–]bitcheslovedroids 0 points1 point ago

Holy crap, what the hell?

[–]Esc4p3 1 point2 points ago

Ok, while that was offensive, it was pretty funny.

[–]bulletbillx 0 points1 point ago

Also so the parents have something to laugh at/enjoy.

[–]elryanoo 3 points4 points ago

Tropical Plumber eh unclog your pipes today.

[–]renotime 0 points1 point ago

This is probably why my Dad liked watching that with me so much.

[–]pockets817 0 points1 point ago

I am the cheese. I am the best character on this show. I am better than the salami and the bologna combined.

[–]Camplify 0 points1 point ago

Childhood? I'm 40!! Aaaaand I still watch the rugrats.

[–]Irongrip 28 points29 points ago

Called it before I opened it, that guy's a riot.

[–]DocGerbil256 5 points6 points ago

What episode is that from?

[–]fmdc 4 points5 points ago

I think it's the one where they are watching a Reptar movie but can't finish it for some reason so they all make up their own endings for it. I fuckin love the Rugrats.

[–]KoreanTerran 102 points103 points ago

I want to start a band and name it "Lonely Space Vixens".

[–]UraharaZR 35 points36 points ago

If your band isnt made of ether:

  • Lonely vixens

  • Space vixens

  • Space

  • Vixens

You are going to dissapoint a lot of people.

[–]ORIGAMIDOMO 48 points49 points ago

Red hot chili peppers are not actually spicy red plants, 9 Inch Nails are not actual building materials, The Beatles isn't a band of bugs, and no one in the band Queen was royalty.

[–]Lowilru 54 points55 points ago

But one of them was a Queen!

God I miss him.

I made myself sad....

[–]throwmeawayname 4 points5 points ago

Queen: The best music. The best vocalist. The best performance. The best STD. Winners all around.

[–]friedchocolate 26 points27 points ago

I always thought the "nails" in "nine inch nails" were from fingers.

[–]GravityBlasteroid 18 points19 points ago

Nine Inch Nails were referring to the length of the nails Jesus was nailed to the cross with.

EDIT:Edit: After further reading, I am wrong. He had no meaning behind the name, and the proof for said statement is in The last paragraph of 'Formation'

[–]forceez 7 points8 points ago

upvote for correcting yourself despite no one correcting you.

[–]GravityBlasteroid 3 points4 points ago

Misinformation is the downfall of human existence :) Knowledge is power!

[–]Grindstone50k 0 points1 point ago

I had heard it was because that was the length of nails used in old-school coffins.

[–]GravityBlasteroid 1 point2 points ago

Nah :) Upon further reading, it was stated that Reznor had no meaning behind the name.

[–]Grindstone50k 1 point2 points ago

YOU LIED TO ME, BATHROOM READER!

[–]GravityBlasteroid 0 points1 point ago

D: I'm sorry!!!

[–]Kramernaut 3 points4 points ago

Nope, Trent Reznor said that the name was chosen because it abbreviated easily, but some also think that it was a reference to the 9 inch nails used to hold Jesus to the cross.

(taken off of wikipedia)

[–]Helter-Skeletor 9 points10 points ago

For the record, The Beatles actually refers to beats, not beetles.

[–]Rat_Cat_Batman 0 points1 point ago

But it was a tribute to Buddy Holly's band, The Crickets.

[–]Helter-Skeletor 0 points1 point ago

It's a play on words. The spelling indicates it's based off the musical beat while also being spelled like the insect.

[–]Rat_Cat_Batman 0 points1 point ago

I agree with you. I was just adding additional information.

[–]patmcdoughnut 7 points8 points ago

Barenaked Ladies are, in fact, men.

[–]BullNiro 3 points4 points ago

Beatles is a pun. A Beatle is only a member of the band.

[–]TheBunneh 1 point2 points ago

I thought Nine Inch Nails was a euphemism >_>.

[–]online222222 2 points3 points ago

also, the Barenaked Ladies

[–]coolUNDERSCOREcat 16 points17 points ago

I would listen to a band made of ether....

[–]Kahloquialism 1 point2 points ago

The anesthetic?

[–]thesorrow312 0 points1 point ago

Space is infinitely extended.

We both occupy and are made up of space.

Therefore we are space.

Philosophize with a hammer bro.

[–]UraharaZR 4 points5 points ago

Shut up woman, get on my horse.

[–]josephpatricks 2 points3 points ago

Can we play electro-swing and make sci-fi references all the time? Because I'm totally on board with this.

[–]elustran 0 points1 point ago

Just don't lose your heart to a starship trooper. If all else fails, you can get an automatic lover.

[–]nomdaweb 31 points32 points ago

This is a Dale Gribble quote.

[–]Haolepalagi 8 points9 points ago

Except the Dale Gribble quote is better, because it goes, "Youʻre not really familiar with the game, are you?" "Nope." "Yeah... I won."

[–]Thehealeroftri 52 points53 points ago

Does he really say this or has someone just added subtitles to the scene that wasn't actually said?

[–]zoltar_says 41 points42 points ago

It's not what he actually says... This has been posted before and people have linked to the video, script, etc. It may not be real, but it's still worth a view IMO

[–]justthatbroman 13 points14 points ago

Yeah you're right. Found this on YouTube, shitty quality though. Also a few upset redditors from 5 months ago in the comments.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ec5PsTNu04&feature=youtube_gdata_player

[–]atomatoisagoddamnveg 9 points10 points ago

It's because of this episode that I thought your uvula were your tonsils for way too long.

[–]Bruce_Bruce 1 point2 points ago

Thank you for laying this to rest.

[–]justthatbroman 1 point2 points ago

No problem. I wasn't the only one who posted the video, but ill still do my part.

[–]devilrobotjesus 5 points6 points ago

dale gribble is the one who says that to his wife in king of the hill

[–]Jackcooper 1 point2 points ago

I am surprised how little King of the Hill is mentioned in these perpetual reposts. I think Reddit is allergic to Texas

[–]devilrobotjesus -1 points0 points ago

Yeah, stupid fundie christian gun owners I hate them so much. But I'll be god damned if they're going to try and leave.

[–]Delta_6 3 points4 points ago

He was up all night after promising not to. Claims he was just up early because he is sick (to get out of doing yard work in favor of sleep).

[–]atticus138[S] 18 points19 points ago

The latter would be my guess.

[–]scoutu 148 points149 points ago

Kinda like Mexican Roulette?

[–]atticus138[S] 81 points82 points ago

God dammit, now I want tacos and have a weird boner.

A male gif and a female gif exchange files to form a new gif.

[–]Le_that_guy 3 points4 points ago

The Internet is a strange and confusing place.

[–]trnctd 2 points3 points ago

I'm pretty sure they were either a Comedy Goldmine or Photoshop Phriday article on SomethingAwful. Had a look but couldn't find it though. Have these instead:

I have no idea why that link was already purple...

[–]uzzinator 1 point2 points ago

you too?

[–]jtwFlosper 4 points5 points ago

Read this as "Taco Hell".

[–]zf420 0 points1 point ago

Perfect. Now I don't have a boner nor want a taco.

[–]Thehealeroftri 2 points3 points ago

I ate tacos earlier. I've had my hunger for tacos sated for today.

[–]turtletots 10 points11 points ago

Hunger for tacos? Sated?

[–]justinsidebieber 1 point2 points ago

Did the lochness monster come?

[–]scoutu 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, that'll happen when you view a gif of this magnitude.

[–]TacosAndVaginas 2 points3 points ago

Someone say tacos?

This gif led to sex. Thank you.

[–]GeneralRipper 0 points1 point ago

[–]BeeRayDee 37 points38 points ago

The actual line is from Dale of King of the Hill. Edit: A VERY SIMILAR version, my bad. I should do more research.

[–]juru1876 3 points4 points ago

He also didn't really come from a game of Russian Roulette. He just didn't want Nancy to know he was at John Redcorn's place.

[–]qwsxzikjsefmdox 3 points4 points ago

Oh man, that show was so good.

[–]BeeRayDee 0 points1 point ago

true. that was a good episode. My favorite part is where they are riding the swan boats and Hank wants to leave so they end up paddling in a circle. I'm easy to please, I guess.

[–]redlegsfan21 1 point2 points ago

I knew I heard it from somewhere else recently.

[–]azizinator25 6 points7 points ago

[–]WendelHammersmith 6 points7 points ago

He's hard as fuck

[–]Haacker45 45 points46 points ago

This a repost and a fake quote, congrats! http://i.imgur.com/atticus138.jpg

[–]runsoutofspace 26 points27 points ago

It's funny how everyone responds to reposts by posting the same images that everyone else posts when they respond to reposts. Fighting fire with fire...

[–]fingyer 3 points4 points ago

But I love the OP is a fag pictures!

[–]Haacker45 4 points5 points ago

Yeah i'm mainly upset about the false quote and not it being a repost. Misinformation is a dangerous thing, even with something so seemingly trivial.

[–]leujin 0 points1 point ago

You must be new.

[–]thesorrow312 0 points1 point ago

Memes are reposts on purpose.

Posts are supposed to be original content.

Those who try to post reposts are insulting you intellectually by believing they can get away with it.

[–]JangSaverem 6 points7 points ago

Grandpa lou doesnt repost but you sure do OP.

[–]Obskulum 3 points4 points ago

[–]etherealcaitiff 2 points3 points ago

He never says this. Wanna know how I know? From someone saying that he never says this in the last 4 threads I've seen with this same picture. The thing is, I could understand if this was real, you would innocently enough make this and submit it without knowing it is a repost, but it isn't. You didn't even change the font.
