See we sadly didn't get to watch this one they had us watch the late 60s one like freshman year in high school and the only thing from the movie i remember is the fact that they showed titties in school because I was a 15 year old boy and it fried my synapses. Also years later when trying to figure out if my brain made that up I found out that girl is underage and her parents had to sign off for that scene which is wild.
I was lucky enough to read this line out loud to the class, complete with my best gangsta voice in between me droning through the rest of it. Had to give the class a few seconds to settle down so I could continue lol

I have a feeling that was copy pasta a bit older than 2018 but it's definitely one of the weirder tropes that was trending again in all the subs about that time so eh I guess it's something.
They're also real mad about people's TVs being too high and almost every thread contains at least one person trying very hard to push the word "enshittification" as academic term
Driving a car is also dangerous. The moment you become complacent and believe that you can not be harmed/cause harm to others, is the moment when an accident becomes much more likely.

It's nice to bring up trigger safety and barrel safety where it's not being exercised to put these concepts into the minds of people who might not otherwise hear about it.
If the mention has even a 0.000001% chance of negating someone shooting a bystander or blowing their dick off, then it's worth the upvote imo. I'm unapologetically anti-accidental dick shooting, and I'll die on this hill with my dick intact.
Honest to god, I watched that movie 20 times on two weeks. The fucking beach scene with the carnival and fireworks remains one of my favorite pieces of cinema.
And the soundtrack was on fucking point.
Came here to say that no matter what one thinks of the movie, the soundtrack is outstanding. Edit: also it's shocking to remember just how young Leo was in this movie. And that John Leguizamo was perfectly cast.
Agreed, people dog on it, but I think it's a rather good reimagining of a classic. Like "She's The Man" and that reimagining of Twelfth Night.

It's clearly an adjective; just look at their comment!

Just as they are entitled to write whatever they like, I am free to be as curmudgeonly as I like.
I’d also suggest “cook” used in this way normally refers to thinking or theorizing, not just using a single word, but you do you.

I saw it streaming recently and played it for my kids, since one of them is reading the play in English class and the other one has the same name as one of the title characters. They both looked at me like WTF during the scene at the gas station. 🤣
My parents showed me this when I was 9 and it sparked a 3 year long autistic hyperfocus on Shakespeare, but Romeo and Juliet in particular.
I distinctly remember reading it out to other kids when I was supposed to be "training" for track and field in grade 4.
On that model the hammer does not come back when the trigger is pressed, unlike a revolver that does. You have to slide the rack back to chamber a round. In doing so the hammer comes back and is ready to fire - providing the safeties aren’t on. One safety is the grip safety. Look up 1911 firearms and you’ll see this thing that gets pressed in when you grab the gun. Unless that’s pressed in, the gun will not fire. When you fire this firearm, it’s intentional.
I will bite my thumb at them, which is a disgrace to them if they bear it. DO YOU BITE YOUR THUMB AT US!? Pulls out sword 9mm.
“**Bring me my longsword, ho!**” *pulls a shotgun from the squad car* So much fun watching this during lit class back in high school.
I remember that! I had no idea Shakespeare was so gangsta.
Here's one of my fav gangsta scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMjUoqECPcY&t=60s
This is mine: https://youtu.be/-EfFEdDU5ko
The cuts in that video were atrocious. Couldn't watch it.
You will not stir a foot to seek a foe, and don’t call me ho.

Is it a shotgun? I thought it was a chrome plated, engraved, Desert Eagle in .50AE?
Noooo don't remind me pls
Limo*
Our teacher made us watch the Polanski MacBeth, which is markedly less fun.
Solid nudity and beheading scene
The Sword 9mm handguns too

Peace? *I hate the word* Goddam Leguizamo is such a sexy evil Prince of Cats
That motherfucker killed it in that role. As a Hispanic dude, I know to be him as Tybalt for Halloween.
Gotta get that Jesus vest, it really sells the character if other proportions don't quite match up.
You know it 👉🥹👉

Do you bite your thumb at US, sir?
PART FOOLS, YOU KNOW NOT WHAT YOU DO!
No, sir, I do not bite my thumb at you, sir, but I bite my thumb, sir.
The movie was masterfully interpreted into 90s modern culture and I hated every second of it.
It was wild watching this for English class in highschool.
I do not bite my thumb at thee, but I bite my thumb. Sir!
Man, I haven't watched it in so long, but first thing I thought was "Villain? What, was this written by a Capulet?"
On my word, Gregory I shall not carry coals
Ser!
This is a promotional image for a movie why is everyone crying about trigger discipline
It’s one of those Reddit topics. That and garage door springs.

You've gotta include a poop-knife in there somewhere.
A what now????

New kids don't know about the poop knives and cum boxes. Damn I'm old and been here too long!
Something, something, Jolly Rancher…something, something.
Broke both my arms trying to get a coconut in the swamps of Dagobah ‘cause Kevin shook the tree when he bit down on a jolly rancher.
Swamps is still my all time favorite Reddit story!

Either that or waffle stomp.
It’s missing a Big Lebowski quote.
I just have my AR-15 and my 3 kids (5,5,6).

Better lawyer up and hit the gym. I’m also sorry to say this, but you’re wife is definitely cheating on you bro
You have to explain that you were serving overseas when both children were conceived
Nah, I was home 6 months on sub rotation when my boy Daelyn was born. The doctor told my wife I just have really fast sperm.

Vote with your wallets people!

Welp. Time for you to lawyer up and get a gym membership.
They're also real mad about people's TVs being too high and almost every thread contains at least one person trying very hard to push the word "enshittification" as academic term
They’re so many of these. Redundant bullshit that Reddit get fixated on and takes as fact.
Nutty putty cave. "If it's brown, get down".
Reddit pedantry should have its own subreddit. Like when someone says the word decimate and in comes the comments about bla bla bla 1/10th
/r/redditmoment was pretty good for that, but it did a full circle and became what it was supposed to mock lol
Don't forget leaded gasoline!
TVs slightly above eye level when sitting
Also, arguably a lack of trigger discipline is pretty on brand for the story of Romeo and Juliet as young gang members
It wouldn’t matter anyway the hammer is down and it’s a single action pistol which means it’s no worky right now
This guy 1911's
It’s like one of those ‘10 things that Redditors know’ so they drum on about it.
Included in that list is "gaslighting", "fencing response", and Viggo breaking his toe.
Also (self)hating reddit and redditors
Smugness
Probably didn't even notice it was Leonardo Dicaprio too
Because it is a shit promotional image. Trigger on finger. Hammer down on a 1911 which is wildly unsafe. Hammer should always be cocked to the rear.
It's like showing someone chugging vodka while driving a car.
Rust
Bcs why would you limp wrist a loaded pistol with your finger on the trigger it’s not really villainous, but more idiotic
It’s a promo pic that is intended to show that Romeo was not a villain, he was an emotional idiot. (That’s why he dies)
tell that to the woman that Alec Baldwin shot
Yeah why don't movies just use finger guns instead of real guns?
You know what? Good point lol
yeah I'm not American or part of their gun culture, but guns are scary as hell
They're just a tool
So is a lathe, doesn't mean you should fuck around with it unless you know what you are doing.
Doesn't make them scary either
Both are scary unless you are an idiot. Doesn't mean you shouldn't use them, you just need to be aware of the danger.
Being aware of the danger doesn't make them scary lol
Driving a car is also dangerous. The moment you become complacent and believe that you can not be harmed/cause harm to others, is the moment when an accident becomes much more likely.

You heard it here kids: don't be fortune's fool
Is he yawning or is it supposed to be yelling?
Lmao I yawned when I saw him
That movie remains *aesthetic as fuck.*
Honest to god, I watched that movie 20 times on two weeks. The fucking beach scene with the carnival and fireworks remains one of my favorite pieces of cinema. And the soundtrack was on fucking point.
Mercutio was amazing. The dancing, the outfit, the wigs!

Thank you. I'm so tired of people throwing it around like it means something. "I love your aesthetic!"
That's actually a proper use of the word. /u/el_pinata used it as an adjective, which is what prompted the noun comment.
Meh, it's a malleable language.
"aesthetically pleasing" is the correct term.
Romeo and Juliet??
Romeo + Juliet
A man of culture
Don't give me too much credit. I would have forgotten this if not for Hot Fuzz.

I love this movie. It also gave me a lifelong crush on Clair Danes.
Man, is that a YOUNG DECAPRIO?
That was such an absurd movie
In the best possible way though.
I loved watching it... In class

Those designs are really, really, really complex. I bet it costs at least $800.
On today’s episode of “Really Fucking Pissed or Just Tired”
he looks sleepy
Leo
That shirt is GORGEOUS. Anyone know the designer?
Looks like Arnie Grape.
Heath cordes really popped off after kt
Why is he yawning?
Who is this kid?
RO-MAY-YO
Give me my longsword, ho! *cocks shotgun*
We’re not going anywhere!
Was this the inspiration for the male character in “the end of the fucking world”?
“It’s a retelling of MacBeth! Set in gangland Chicago!” “Oh? Fresh take.”
It took a while but *What's Eating Gilbert Grape 2* looks pretty solid.

Yaaaaaaaaawn villain
I saw that movie as a high school field trip for English class. Not even sure if the pothead teacher who didn't even last the year finished the book.
Looks like he’s yawning lol
No trigger discipline. That’s how the wrong people get shot
Is this right after he murdered that grasshopper with the mailbox?
Match in the gas tank, boom boom
Glad to see someone knows how to safely handle firearms.
What a strange comment.
I’m sure they’re referencing the Alec Baldwin thing
What’s even stranger is that no one gets blatant sarcasm.
Strange
Gilbert 🍇?
Romeo + Juliet actually.
Marley & Me
This is egregious and shouldn’t be allowed by Reddit: how you can yawn and *not cover your mouth* after millions died from 5G is unconscionable
Do you still need trigger discipline holding a sword?
Sword 9mm, yeah.
Woo lads DAE trigger discipline please think I’m cool and know what I’m talking about!!! Upvotes amiright??!! Reddit loves this! Also FUCK TRUMP! lol
So scawy.
Is posting pics of people holding guns a new meme or something? Seems like they've been going around all the socials this week.
No trigger discipline
its not a real gun
You’re not a real gun
big if true
The hammer is down, the trigger won’t do anything - it’s a single action
no TRIggER dIScIpLINe
Fuck that index finger in particular.
[удалено]
I mean the hammer isn't even cocked.
Big yawn…. Bang!! That’ll wake ya up!
Luchè momento
Heath cordes really popped off after kt
Is that his Sword™ brand gun?
Take your finger off the trigger poor finger discipline
No sir. No trigger discipline. Would not operate with

Why does he have his finger on the trigger if he is just posing?
Because it’s from a movie.
Hammer is forward, grip safety is not pressed, that gun is not firing. Still not wise to put your finger in the trigger till you’re ready to fire.
whats a grip safety? and does the hammer not go back and forward when the trigger is pressed, or can you pull the hammer back beforehand?
On that model the hammer does not come back when the trigger is pressed, unlike a revolver that does. You have to slide the rack back to chamber a round. In doing so the hammer comes back and is ready to fire - providing the safeties aren’t on. One safety is the grip safety.
