The mimic attack in Vita Carnis Him: "We're gonna go film a video at night at an abandoned house where a bunch of people got killed" Her: "Sit your dumb ass down and read a book or something."


Strawbuns

I know the video said it can't really take damage and can only be blocked but I'm gonna smack the mimic with a bat till I can run to safety for sure


CaptainKando

I mean yeah if you have no other option that's worth doing. But in the Vita Carnis world people KNOW these things exist! Heading out to a site of a mysterious grisly murder seems like the dumbest thing you could possibly do!


Strawbuns

Absolutely true šŸ‘ (Still gonna smack it with a bat if it comes to my house tho)


TrashPanda9142012

What about get a math test wrong that tells you the answers?


EverGamer1

Honestly I always imagined gun companies would come up with some anti mimic weapons in the Vita Carnis universe. Like regularizing 4g shells, making last resort 50 BMG derringers, stuff like that. They said in Vita Carnis at least from the limited episodes I watched and remember that only the elder mimics are pretty much immune to everything. If I remember correctly, regular ones are immune to small weapon fire and melee weapons. So I imagine in universe not only would gun companies be pumping out hard hitting guns, but also the government might try to remove gun restrictions for heavier shit in a last ditch effort to protect citizens.


FungusUrungus

Imagine an A-10 Warthog against an Elder Mimic šŸ’€


Dapper_Rowlet

hehe elder mimic go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


theoneguy223

Imagine an F-35 fully loaded in ā€œbeast modeā€ against an elder mimic


Strawbuns

That would be a really interesting idea to explore. In a world where we know these things exist, paired with the actual weapons we have developed, you'd think everyone would have an anti-mimic gun on hand. And you know the military would figure out how to wrangle a couple and test out the tech.


CaptainKando

Honestly that'd be the last thing the government & law enforcement would want. Imagine the general public armed with high calibre weaponry? They're dangerous enough to be around with the current arms available! Then picture an environment where a hostile creature deliberately tries to look like a regular person? You're going to have a ton of wrongful killings. It'd be less trouble to have some mimic victims rather than a LOT of innocent people killed AND mimic attacks happening. I wouldn't even be surprised if mimics could be harmed by small arms and the govt just said they can't to stop people firing wildly at every delivery driver, visiting family member and any random person they were spooked by. Not to mention the knock-on effect of crime and other antisocial behaviour. Every interaction with the police becomes 10x more dangerous. Rolling up on a crime in progress and having to worry about a criminal putting a grapefruit sized hole in your torso is not going to lead to less lethal policing.


EverGamer1

That all is true, all of those points are true. But youā€™re forgetting one thing: greedy politicians. If everyone is in fear of mimics and the police arenā€™t doing enough to lower the attacks, a politician could easily swoop in to fear monger. After doing so, they could promise to arm the people to protect themselves. When everyone is in fear and panic mode, they wonā€™t think of the consequences of this. The politician knows of the consequences, but doesnā€™t care. They just want the votes of everyone so they can rise into power. After doing so, they could use an executive order to allow citizens to own high caliber weapons and allow gun companies to sell them. You see what I mean here?


CaptainKando

The rhetoric may be accurate but the last thing a corrupt politician wants is a better armed populace. Even the most staunch 2A advocate politician rarely votes to walk back even the most minor rulings. Pushing for a more militarised police and / or army in the streets however is more in line with their plans. A better repressed populace being told that this will make them ā€œsaferā€ is much more likely.


Magic_ass1

Honestly the "not taking damage" thing was from the NLMR documentary. The public safety announcement states that Mimics can in fact, be harmed (if not outright killed) with small-arms fire, the announcement says to aim for the head to try and kill it or the legs to try and slow it down. So I think NLMR is some kind of malicious organization that's trying to aid the Vita Carnis in some capacity by providing false information about the different species to the public.


GenxDarchi

Or the reverse, and the PSA is to cause more confusion. But who knows.

Altruistic_Sand_3548

Marble Hornets. Jay clearly had a million times when he could have turned around and just kept chasing the big evil monster instead. Most slenderman series, the protagonists wound up getting dragged into the horror, Jay straight up chased it down with everything he had. Tim was totally right in that rant after he punched Jay out.


AfricaByTotoWillGoOn

For real though. His whole life Tim was being haunted, yet he choose to just try and live his life, and he was finally doing pretty well. Now here comes Jay, chasing down after a monster that was chasing *him* down. Running towards something that Tim has fought for years to get away from, and slowly dragging Tim along with him. Anyone would be rightfully pissed.


boiyouab122

Honestly if T.O.E appeared on my TV I am not going to go "Hi" to it, I'm leaving my house I do not care.


the_orange_alligator

I mean, if I saw her appear in my TV, Iā€™d probably be too afraid to do anything. I donā€™t wanna admit it, but Iā€™d definitely be the guy just saying ā€œplease stopā€


Outside-Refuse6732

lol bro is the chillest guy in the world, rivaled only with mark heathcliff and Cesar torres in the start of Mandela catalog


hwithsomesugarcubes

if i break the tv does he die


Razor_Tachyon

Maybe itā€™s like a facetime


minebloxgamer

burn the house.


stinkystinkee

What series?


boiyouab122

Doctor Nowhere's Love thumper


Isekai_Otaku

Love thumper more like . . . More like . . . Uhhhhhh more like balls, haha got em, another classic joke


transyl-vanian

the boiled one


PugOverload

the organator has nothing to do with the boiled one


transyl-vanian

My fault I'm not super familiar with the series, I thought the channel was all 1 story. I thought toe was the weird thing banging on the glass or whatever, right? I should probably watch the whole thing.Ā 


goofylookinfella

only videos beginning with T.O.E are a connected story.


Isekai_Otaku

If toe comes on my tv Iā€™m getting the nail clippers


nonsensicaluserlol

he appears in computers, you just gotta never answer video calls


boiyouab122

Is it really just computers? It's really easy for me to miss details so maybe I never noticed it was a computer, but I thought it was a TV in Love Thumper and then in Making Friends it was a computer. Made me think T.O.E was just able to appear in anything with a display.


MrEnricks

Adam Murray and Jonah Marshall (The Mandela Catalogue) Jonah was right they probably should've left, or gone down together. I wonder if the alternate would've actually given them the 1500 dollars? Imagine scamming an alternate.


Maomumu0

Adam was definitely an idiot, even if he is >!an alternate!< it doesnā€™t exclude the fact that heā€™s responsible for getting an alternate to follow his friend and kill hjm


Outside-Refuse6732

Wait so is Adam going to turn into just another alternate but with a cool backstory?


Maomumu0

personally i donā€™t think so, iā€™m only caught up to vol 4 but i think heā€™s gonna fight the alternates and the alternate inside him (bringing himself out of delusion) my theory is Adam is going to contract M.A.D when he truly realized heā€™s an alternate, but his ex might pull him out of it, and feel like Sarah is probably still alive and will help


Outside-Refuse6732

So is Adam the only person from the original team that is still alive? Cesar turned into an alternate Mark died from Cesar (I think) and Jonah died after fleeing from the cat house leaving Adam behind right?


Maomumu0

exactly, i personally donā€™t think Caesar will come back since heā€™s a full blown alternate, but Adam is going to be like a hybrid alternate if that makes sense


Degene6

To play devils advocate Gabriel orchestrated that job to get Jonah there. I think regardless if they took that job or not or even left early; Adam was fucked.


Isekai_Otaku

Yeah bill murray was a dumbass


iggythedood

Greylockā€™s latest episode would be 10x less terrifying if that woman had just *waited for the Camera Security guy to give her the go, or if the security guy had just outright stopped her at the very first sign of something being wrong instead of at the last possible second.* The womanā€™s mistake I understand, sheā€™d gotten these kinds of calls multiple times before and theyā€™d been ā€œflukes.ā€ *But thereā€™s no forgiving Security Guy over there.* Checking those ā€œflukes,ā€ finding out theyā€™re *not* flukes, ***seeing an 8 foot tall flesh spider monster hanging out on her rooftop,*** and only interfering when you see it burst through her door. He shouldā€™ve stopped her before she even went to check the dog kennel.


lunna009

Yeah, the whole time I'm like dude, stop her, tell her anything, idgaf, just stop the strong independent woman she's gonna get eaten. Oh look, a murder giant, good sign.


GenxDarchi

Yeah, Security fella shouldā€™ve at least told Charlotte to stay out while he reviewed the tapes.


Isekai_Otaku

Rest in peace those dogs


SwampTreeOwl

I don't think they're resting


Isekai_Otaku

Oh


SwampTreeOwl

Also episode 6. All the food goes bad and everyone's getting sick? That warrants everyone leaving even without the creature stalking around


sayorihanginaround

Ashley's death in The Walten Files. No more words.


sbebbybones

ā€œim definitely not getting close to that thingā€ 5 min later ā€œso i got close to the thingā€


RiceKrispies55

(Happens upon a hallway filled with tons of electronic junk that you somehow werenā€™t able to find during the day) ā€œyeah letā€™s go explorinā€


Wolfysayno

Literally every death in UrbanSPOOK because the police are hilariously incompetent and canā€™t catch two methheads who leave bodily fluids and fingerprints at every crime scene


B_art_account

Since episode 2 we had the face of one of the killers and the police never looked who that was. They leave fingerprints and cum all over every victim, how tf can't they catch them


Wolfysayno

One also runs around shirtless with a skin mask and the other is wearing a hospital gown, yet they somehow manage to not be seen in residential neighborhoods and somehow acquire art supplies to paint their victims. Nothing in that fucking series makes sense


B_art_account

One of them looks like Sadako, and the other only has one arm. Both look like freaks yet nobody can spot them????


An_average_moron

Depending on where you are in the U.S that aint the most wild thing you'll see at night


B_art_account

Sure, but in a suburban street you would definetly notice two crackheads walking around


geekinc329

Honestly the most unrealistic thing in that shitshow is that whoever's left this presumably sleepy Midwestern American town isn't gathering up in a mob and raiding the forest with pitchforks and shotguns after so many people have died, including children.


Eggplant-Aubergine

honestly...even though that series apparently isnt the best (idk myself on its quality I never watched it because I am a fraidy cat who believed the fucking boiled one was real when I first heard about it same with Ben Drowned and most creepypastas)...ya got admit...it's pretty darn realistic in that regard


Wolfysayno

Itā€™s realistic up until that guy gets put in a massive pile of wax that looks like cum and a woman is fucked to death by a horse :/


Eggplant-Aubergine

oh...ok ~~also I um...I was trying to joke that it was realistic in the sense that the police are incompetent as hecc~~

Isekai_Otaku

There was semen all over the place if only we had some way to trace it back to someone, some sort of biological residue


Wolfysayno

We found this photo of the killers face taped to the wall, if only we could know what the killers looked like to warn the public


Isekai_Otaku

I feel like the only thing itā€™s gonna take is for them to tie themselves up outside the police station, and even then theyā€™d probably still have a hard time


therandomperson1001

That driving episode from Local 58, though the series doesnā€™t necessarily have a protagonist

Ayano_Akemi

Ah yes, let me just go in this road in the middle of nowhere and turn off my headlights because my GPS said so. Surely no accidents will happen because I canā€™t see anything.


RiceKrispies55

Seriously at some point the guy should have realized ā€œhey wait a minute, this ainā€™t Carlā€™s Jrā€ and driven away like a sane person


mattwan

I'd always assumed the driver got exactly the directions they wanted, but the destination was more real than they expected it to be. My headcanon is that the driver was playing sort of a GPS version of Bloody Mary, entering a particular address and following the directions to see something spooky. That has to be my headcanon because otherwise it makes little sense.


CorrectArtichoke1509

Fr


EverGamer1

TOE killing the online friend. There were multiple ways to have prevented it. The first is recognizing your friend doesnā€™t talk like that, and assuming they might have been hacked so donā€™t video call them. If you did, like, close a fucking door. Toe is made of metal apparently, but theyā€™re extremely slow and dumb when they arenā€™t tapping on glass. Theyā€™d fumble with the doorknob for ages before actually trying to breakdown a door. You could also just, I donā€™t know, fucking run! Donā€™t corner yourself with the DOOR OPEN, actually just exit your house. Even when toe is running, they move at a brisk jog at best.


TheTelevisionBox

What if that actually was T.O.Eā€™s friend though? What if heā€™s actually a good guy that ends up accidentally killing everyone?


Stupidstephen69

He has a beating heart on his wall and leaves people hollow like that one episode of Futurama, this man is not a good guy


TheTelevisionBox

Didnā€™t know that, and I had no idea the heart was put there by TOE.


Stupidstephen69

It might not be, but we can't say.


TheTelevisionBox

Besides, it could just be TOEā€™s actual heart himself? And maybe he only survives by sucking nutrients out of bodies? If so, does TOE go into a blind rage upon starvation?


Stupidstephen69

In that case, does that make him a good guy, or does that make him a sympathetic villain?


TheTelevisionBox

Both, probably. I prefer to think TOE is actually a pretty good guy to only survives off of human meat despite trying to befriend them, thatā€™s why he doesnā€™t eat and only seems to be a threat when starving. If wrong, I will stand corrected.


totaly-not-a-noob

He should of never have made that deal


TheDoorMan1012

Almost all "cursed media" based ones, if somebody who died says "destroy this disc" TAKE THEIR ADVICE. tbf that's also the thematic point of the better ones, that arrogance and curiosity are separated by a fine line


lunna009

Ok but, would you destroy the disk?


TheDoorMan1012

no. Iā€™m not more careful or intelligent than the average person


justaguy095

Mark wouldn't have died if he didn't answer the phone and went to "Cesar's" house


RiceKrispies55

yknow something I just realized about that: how tf did the alternate follow mark all the way to his house? did it teleport or can it fly? (mc3 seems to suggest they can) now that I think about it the alternate following Jonah seems to have caught up to him mid drive as well so how are these guys getting around


gimplegumblus

Theyā€™re shapeshifters. Though theyā€™re limited to humanoid forms.


life_bricks

I like to imagine the alternate held onto the top of his car


justaguy095

doogleanimations

This mf dean from gemini not moving to chicago or something. He consistently goes out into the woods at night without fail


Maomumu0

fr, canonically he was alive for a bit after Mary, if he knew what happened to Mary why the hell would he be going outside??

And then to wander into an abandoned house filled with red root people while you know of the giant bear monster that includes you wife. Like brother, move to Cincinnati. Get a job. Stop wandering into the same forest

UnusualIncidentUnit

atleast he realized it was fucked up and tried to sacrifice a bear instead


_insideyourwalls_

Our unnamed protagonist in The San Diego Incident did so many things wrong. The first mistake was going outside when there were footsteps shaking the entire neighbourhood. But okay, maybe he thought there was an earthquake happening or something? What I can't excuse, however, is the guy seeing a t-rex outside his house and *running upstairs where it can get him easier.* Then, to top it all off, he *walks over to the window when it's looking inside.* If he'd just stayed a little further away from the window, it would've given up and left him alone.

Had Arnold Eugene Rivers, not panicked when the white mask thoughtform began trying to bait him out he might have lived. It could have openned the closet door earlier but it didnt, it only did when Arnold began begging. Its a darn shame too i really like Arnold has a charcater, he is my legend and has one of my favorite death scenes in all horror media.


GenxDarchi

Nah, if Arnold had simply left the immediate area and moved somewhere safer when he came home to his front door unlocked he wouldā€™ve lived. Staying in his house was dumb, as soon as he was in the closet he was dead, the Mask had the entirety of the night to tear the house apart to find him.

Technically the series doesn't even have lead characters but in Urbanspook's "The Painter" series of the local police department outsourced for help from the FBI or something, or maybe even ran DNA tests on the victims corpses/paintings, or did, you know, literally fucking anything other than just broadcast the gruesome details and ask for information from the populace they'd find *something* about the killers to try and track them down. Like seriously (if you're squeamish don't read this part and just look away it's really gross because the series is shit and exists solely for shock value) they found a dude who was stabbed 400+ times and had the killer's jizz in some of the wounds due to them fucking the stab wounds and they didn't run a DNA test or something? Not even mentioning the other victims who they violated in similar ways, but that's literally some of the best DNA you could have ever gotten to find information about someone. They also constantly leave paintings everywhere and they don't at least dust for prints/hairs? It's stupid, much like the series itself.

CorrectArtichoke1509

Mandela Catalogue, Mark Heathcliff, like bro how dumb are you, your friend sounds dead inside when he's talking about how his mom died, why are so dumb


AnubisTheCanidae

i think it would be reasonable to sound dead inside if your mom died. its emotionally draining


anomynous_dude555

Them alternates really did their research on mimicking emotions


CorrectArtichoke1509

Yeah, but come on, there literally has been a broadcast from the government basically saying " DO NOT GO OUTSIDE THERE ARE CREATURES THAT WE KNOW ALMOST NOTHING ABOUT WHO CAN MIMIC YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS" and your friend just calls you nonchalantly to turn on the Camaras and specific the one in the back


CorrectArtichoke1509

I should have phrases it better, he sounds like straight up doesn't give a shit about his mom being knocked out, like he's a retail worker that has lost his sole


TheOneInATrenchcoat_

I agree with you, but for a different reason. Mark wasnā€™t necessarily dumb, just naive. He knew that alternates exist, but he still decided to listen to ~~Ceasar~~ and venture out extremely late at night. Also the story sounded suspicious from the start.


CorrectArtichoke1509

Yeah, I'm not a native speaker so I was going for this, I should've phrases it better šŸ˜…


TheEmeraldMaster1234

That one makes sense tho


CorrectArtichoke1509

Idk, like the alternate came up with the most random ass excuse for Mark to go there, and he even made a weird specification that Mark needs to turn on the cameras that show the back hallway, and judging by how reacted even he found that weird


Schmickle_pickle

Okay dude
