the last thing you laughed REALLY hard at
Perhaps you've already seen it, considering it's about AC, but I couldn't stop laughing. It's mostly the dude's laugh that gets me.
It's a screw-up, but a damn good one.
And also a funny response picture.

Listen here, you little shit!

Good thing I was recording when this happened.
I saw something on Gamefaqs that nearly made me laugh. A poll of the day, "what is best in life"? There were answers like "a good book or movie", "spending time with friends and family". The very last one was "to crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women". Anyone else recognize that famous line?
Genghis Khan? Someone like that.
"What's the difference between a pirate and a smuggler?"
"If you're a famous smuggler you ain't doin' it right."
"If you're a famous smuggler you ain't doin' it right."
“Force has no place where there is need of skill." Herodotus
It was Arnold Schwarzenegger in Conan the Barbarian. I believe it was the first line he spoke in the movie. Most amusing to have it referenced on a daily poll; I guess the people at Gamefaqs are just that cool.
Genghis Khan?
It was Arnold Schwarzenegger in Conan the Barbarian.
You're both right. John Milius, the writer/director of Conan, lifted the line from the book Genghis Khan: Emperor of All Men by Harold Lamb:
One day in the pavilion at Karakorum, [Genghis Khan] asked an officer of the Mongol guard what, in all the world, could bring the greatest happiness."The open steppe, a clear day, and a swift horse under you," responded the officer after a little thought, "and a falcon on your wrist to start up hares."
"Nay," responded the Khan, "to crush your enemies, to see them fall at your feet -- to take their horses and goods and hear the lamentation of their women. That is best."
Can't blame him for ripping that off since it's such a BA quote from a historical tyrant. More dialogue from the movie:
Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.
See how many ways the AI suffers in this clip I made (and forgot about until recently).
Amazing. I love the comment:
"Stop fighting, stop fighting! FREE BACON FOR EVERYONE!"

found some suicidal firemen in Watch_Dogs yesterday... did this for about 2-3 minutes until they finally died. must have been a path glitch... seems like they tried to go off road to avoid what happened in the road up above (steam pipe, accident), but their GPS must not have known there was a tree there.
that, or the firemen were foreshadowing Michael Bradley's shot attempt and Costa was the tree... I mean, THERE WAS SO MUCH ROOM TO GO AROUND! but NOOOO, just hit the one damn tree instead.

I can see why some people would find this offensive, but I think of it as harmless joking.

What the hell is the original? Is this guy one of those religious healer scammers?
From what little I know Benny Hinn is a televangelist who has these big healing services. There was some sort of investigation by Dateline and also accusations of fraud.
I'm sure people here have seen this and posted it... but this is great.

Could be... They're hard to distinguish because of the over-the-top accent.
Have you never seen Predator? I am disappointed...Yeah, he said "choppah".
of course i knew the reference he was making... i just thought it was a play on words based on their location.

Fuck Iggy. Gotta love Wild Thornberries tho.
john Caparulo stand up comedy....so many one liners we use in everyday life....for example...in a resteraunt, "Is Pepsi ok?", when you ask for a Coke; "Idk is Canadian money ok?" (If you hate Pepsi that is...lol) his whole routine left me breathless with laughter...
I apologize in advance if this seems a little too steamy for some of you.
I laughed at myself pretty hard yesterday.
I had a routine physical and the doctor ordered routine blood work to be done. The blood work lab had a bit of a backup so I had to wait about 40 minutes to get in so the phlebotomist could take my blood. It took like 5 minutes once I was in there. Once she was done, given that I had to wait a long time, she said, "thanks for being patient." I replied, "thanks for being doctor."
I relayed this story to my wife last night and she was embarrassed. She didn't find it as funny as I did.

That's actually hilarious.

That's actually a really good joke to come up with on the spot. I'm impressed.
It also reminded me of this meme:
You may laugh at 1:20 in this video (looking forward to the movie by the way, having seen Terminator Salvation a little while ago).
Can't blame him for ripping that off since it's such a BA quote from a historical tyrant. More dialogue from the movie:Mongol General: Hao! Dai ye! We won again! This is good, but what is best in life?
Mongol: The open steppe, fleet horse, falcons at your wrist, and the wind in your hair.
Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.
That quote makes mine a bit insignificant but here it goes. (Tbh, mine is closer to reality.) My 15 year old son turned to me the other day and said, "I hate you". His father stood aghast waiting for my response. I started laughing uncontrollably and said, " Well its about damn time!"

did the doctor laugh at it?
she chuckled a little... like, very little.

These games get bigger and so do the databases. In case you missed it, this one was good:
According to the legend, when Catherine de' Medici set out to build the Tuileries Palace at the end of the 16th century, she expelled a German butcher, Jean l'Écorcheur, from the site.*
--
* I bet you didn't expect to read the phrase "expelled a German butcher" just then. I know I certainly didn't.
--
Upon his death, l'Écorcheur swore that he would return to get his revenge.**
--
** I think this is the weirdest story ever. An expelled German butcher, with a French name, gets so annoyed he swears revenge. Okay. And then what?
--
Legend has it that the "petit homme rouge," or Red Ghost, haunted the Palace throughout its construction.***
--
*** Is this a dream? An angry German butcher stayed so annoyed he'd once been expelled from a site that he died and then haunted a palace? What?
--
Astrologer Cosimo Ruggieri even informed Catherine that the construction of the palace would lead to her ruin, which it eventually did on January 5, 1589. For all that, rumors concerning the Red Ghost continued through the centuries. In 1789, Marie Antoinette asked a magician to protect her against the apparition. ****
--
**** Marie-Antoinette asked a MAGICIAN to PROTECT HER AGAINST THE GHOST OF AN ANGRY GERMAN BUTCHER?
--
Napoleon, who later resided at the Tuileries Palace, apparently met the ghost who told him: "You shall be happy up until your forty-fifth year. My task is to protect you. Thereafter, I shall abandon you." *****
--
**** * WHAT IS HAPPENING? Am I HIGH?

“Force has no place where there is need of skill." Herodotus
I love Shaun so much. I was drinking juice while playing AC3 one time, and spit it out as soon as I heard him say, "You'd better be careful though - I think she was HIGH when she was running the numbers..." "SHAUN!"
Is it Shaun in Black Flag and Unity? I didn't think so.
In Black Flag there are specific instances of different people within Abstergo commenting on the same entries (different sets of initials). I didn't know who would be adding info in Unity, as it's not explained where the Animus database comes from. I assumed it was still Abstergo employees putting it together because we haven't had contact with the Assassins (except through Rifts and gathering intel for them) since AC3 really... I see no reason for it to be Shaun annotating the database in Unity.
“Force has no place where there is need of skill." Herodotus
It's Shaun in AC Unity - you can see confirmation by scrolling to "Welcome to the Database" or something like that. In that entry, he says something like, "They're Templars, which means they offer a Templar spin on things. I'll just be here to balance things out." Besides that, Deacon is clearly Shaun in both voice and mannerism. We do have contact with the Assassins in Unity - however brief. Bishop and Deacon/Shaun are the ones who give the Initiate (the player) the task to find a Sage in Arno's Memories. Assassins are also the ones who give the player access to Arno's Memory Sequence, rather than Abstergo themselves (they clearly state that it was Unsequenced when they found it, which means that as of the moment of theft, it hadn't even been prepared for Synchronization by Abstergo). That makes it likely that an Assassin would be editing the Database Entries - and since historically the Assassin that's done that has been Shaun, it's reasonable Shaun is the editor.
In AC4, on the other hand, right, it's not Shaun or any other Assassin.
You can see it from the more boring/clinical/sterile Templar-ish tone, rather than the playful/chaotic/renegade one Shaun often uses. Additionally there are multiple people who have access to editing the Database. Assassins usually assign just one person to it because they either don't have the manpower, or they just don't care as much.
Had to post this.
I'm NOT sure if I've ever shared this here before but, THIS ENTIRE TAG of this ENTIRE BLOG! OMG.
I am literally CRYING with tears on my face right now because I just revisited it.
http://asscreedtranscribed.tumblr.com/tagged/molto+bene/
Just keep scrolling! There's like, around 10-ish pages last time I checked but they will fly by in an instant!
For anyone with an office day job, this website is quite entertaining. A few of my colleagues and I have tried to incorporate as many of these terms into our workday as possible.
