Probably just the instructions for what he immediately tells the cameras afterward.

Keeping the actual text off-screen is a good way to keep a little bit of mystery about the character

Honestly I feel that way about Justin Roiland whenever he has to "act". Or "improvise"

I like his writing and animation but some of his voices are just nails on chalkboards and then are made worse when he does that stupid neurotic stutter as well. As one of his own characters once said "that got old fast"

Just caught that episode.

Wow, that was a unique 15 minutes.

I've watched the first two and ehhhhhhhh on the first one. It's one joke repeated for fifteen minutes. It's charming, but not that charming. Eh.

And that sure was a Justin Roiland episode, but the first short predisposed me to not enjoy any more ironic murderous nihilism, and this is a lesser effort from him IMO.

Switched off midway through the comic tie in one. Wasn't in the mood for undiluted Ennis.

It really stands above every other episode. They were all about the violence and gross-out humour. Ep 7 is so sincere in the relationship and love between the couple and it works.

I did not expect Andy Sandburg to write something so bitter sweet and moving.


Late edit to laugh at myself: Yes, it turns out his name is Andy Samberg. I mean, it sounded right, lol.

Not excusable, but if you're the type who is prone to getting blackout drunk in bars you've probably been involved in something similar. I've had injuries on that level from drunkenly horsing around with friends I didn't press charges on. Fun to explain my black eye and hosed up face to my boss at my customer facing job after my friend and I decided we really needed to duel with kendo swords at 1am in my backyard though.
Quoting this for a solid wtf. Lots of people abuse alcohol without violence being involved in any way, and attacking a stranger for asking you to calm down has nothing to do with drunkenly doing stupid poo poo with a friend.

Thought all the posts were about the cartoon. What a bummer about Starr.

I enjoyed each episode of Diabolical, even the Awkwafina one. Obviously episode 7 was the standout and gave me a huge new respect for Andy Samberg, who I already love.

I thought her skit was great. That, the anime one, and esp the Ennis ones were good stuff. The rest pretty blah. Looking forward to them doing it again.

I work late nights and when I get off bars are the only thing open and I've seen similar incidents probably a hundred times, often knowing both parties. It's not good, or reasonable, but this poo poo happens on a daily basis if you go get drunk a lot and hang out with other drunk people.

I think the point I was trying to make though was that a lot of people are reacting like he went to a restaurant and attacked the chef there, when actually he was drunk in a bar and got into an altercation with another drunk person who happened to be a chef.

Not defending Antony at all, I'm just not as baffled by this situation as a lot of people seem to be.

I get where it was personally alienating but lol that the girl who was intangible to all physical matter and could pass through walls (and thus basically invulnerable) had a "useless superpower."

Maybe it wouldn't lend itself to being on the Seven or a city mascot face, but Vought could totally use something like that for Intel and espionage.

Exactly. It's a useless superpower when everyone knows about it, but a very good power when nobody does. See: exploding heads.

As a cook I have been assaulted and had hot food flung in my face by drunk patrons. I didn’t have a glass smashed into my face but there’s a really good chance if I had then I’d have attempted to cook one of their hands in the deep fryer. It sucks that Anthony Starr is a total piece of poo poo, I hope he gets his act together and quits drinking, but I don’t need to like Starr as a person to enjoy a show where he is a gleefully horny murder-god.

My Hero Academia has a guy with that power who is borderline unstoppable because he can use it with incredible precision and has trained hard enough to wreck people when he closes in on them, but probably requires a series more invested in its fighting and choreography than The Boys
