Yeah, we doing Facebook-tier ass discussion now. It's my social media of choice as an old bumpkin who doesn't do the Twitter or Tiktoks

If any of you buttholes picks Cena, you're dead to me. Definitely keeping Lithgow but number two is a stumper.

Leguizamo and Cusack.

Leguizamo:

  • LGBTQ+ rights advocate.
  • Regularly calls out Hollywood's whitewashing casting decisions, e.g., first-time being cast as fidel-wut, and mario / charlie-stare as mario-dance and luigi-dance

Cusack:

  • Called out obama-drone for, well, obama-drone
  • Bernie bro and DSA member (I know, it aged like milk, but for a rich lib? Fuck it, I'll take it)
  • Got the shit beat out of him by Chicago pigs at a George Floyd protest in 2020
  • Pro-Palestine

100% agree

Also Grosse Point Blank is one of my favorite movies.

[–] Redcuban1959@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Leguizamo is Pro-LGBTQ+?! luigi-dance

Cusack is pretty good.

[–] SuperZutsuki@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

C. Reilly and Goodman. It's a hard choice but I want more Tim & Eric JCR content and I can't give up The Righteous Gemstones. Eagerly awaiting "You can only save two Jons".

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

Yeah that's the pick for sure

[–] miz@hexbear.net 16 points 2 months ago (3 children)

this is fun and all but can we do one about killing the Pod Jons

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's implied that they'll get got in the great johntastrophy.

[–] 30_to_50_Feral_PAWGs@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

Or they will merge with all of the other Jons in the Jon Instrumentality Project

[–] BGDelirium@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fine but we keep Tommy Vitor

I have no idea what he looks like but I did shamefully listen to Pod Save America on my journey through liberalism, temporary Berniecrat, Chapo, and now baby baby leftist.

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Around here we only listen to Trillbillies.

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Bob Dylan working the return counter at Patagonia

We gotta take it back

Beat all to hell, but we gotta take it back

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

That was such a fucking incredible bit. I am giggling like an idiot just at you referencing it.

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I've been saying it to myself since I heard it and chuckling multiple times a day

got Sausalito cookies at the grocery store last time too lmao (p good! bit pricey for me for how many you get tho)

"Playin' a show in Sausalitooooo California... Jacob's runnin' the merch table. He asked me, 'pa, can I play the opening set?' and I told him, 'boy you just sit there and sell them tshirts"

michael-laugh

We love our Trillbillies, don't we folks?? a-little-trolling

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

We don't give a damn. We gotta take it back, put it up on the counter let's have a look at it.

Also the bit about the tinned fish and telling the customer to stick their fingers in their throat to throw up the tinned fish they are returning.

I'm listening to it again just because of this and no matter how many times it still kills me.

Fuckin god tier bit. I've been telling people to listen to them for years and this is possibly the best introductory episode. Tom and Tarence riffing on the ethicist is always peak content.

[–] LocalOaf@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Somebody needs to upload Trillbilly bits to YouTube like that channel that animates Cumtown bits

the masses yearn for Bob Dylan bits

[–] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

That Sausalito bit hit me real hard too lmao. I live right near there.

[–] BGDelirium@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

You had one job and you failed me twice

malcolm-checks

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

John Brown and John Arbuckle. Obviously.

[–] Clippy@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

all these johns i don't know and no john-brown

a shameful display

[–] Blakey@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

I'm assuming there's actually three Johns allowed and OP correctly feels no one should be able to not choose him

[–] OgdenTO@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Lithgow, Leguizamo. But losing Goodman makes me a bit sad.

[–] OgdenTO@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

And Cusack has some good stuff to say, if I'm remembering correctly. Damn, this is tough. Lucky we're all adults in the room making the hard decisions. I'm just surprised that this chat is binding.

[–] Jacobo_Villa_Lobos@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Do you all see anyone in the panel in the bottom right corner? It looks invisible to me?

[–] BGDelirium@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

No, goddamn this eternal subpar joke

[–] pudcollar@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Travolta and Cleese. Would be my answer on who to not save.

[–] BGDelirium@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Oooooo, a twist!

[–] SupFBI@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

This is the correct answer. Throw the rest straight into the trash

[–] alcoholicorn@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 months ago (3 children)

What's wrong with Cena? He's done more make-a-wish visits than anyone else.

[–] Esoteir@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago (1 children)

yeah, afaik john cena has probably done the most good in the world of any public entertainer, steals valor every day, and speaks fluent mandarin shrug-outta-hecks

[–] Sickos@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

What? That's cool as shit

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

He def knew about the Vince McMahon shit and didn't say anything

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

ride or die for vince. he def knew

kinda sours the legitimately incredible amount of make-a-wish work

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

I push Cleese in front of the train or whatever that's threatening the rest of them

[–] Flyberius@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

All I know is Cleese is dead

[–] joaomarrom@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

I'll save Chef John from Food Wishes Dot Com and then figure out another one from this list.

[–] cdf12345@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

The bottom right box is for a write in?

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 months ago

beating the table, baring my teeth WHERE THE FUCK IS JOHN FETTERMAN I DEMAND JOHN FETTERMAN

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

I don't know who a single one of these people is.

Okay I guess I know they're all John, but you know what I mean.

[–] TheSpectreOfGay@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago
