Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I like the stories where the hero doesn't outright kill the villain, but drags him in front of his victims to answer for their crimes before those victims sentence them to execution. It feels so much more satisfying IMO than the villain getting killed in the heat of battle and that's that.

Also IMO, when heroes have their speech about "having mercy" for someone who just forced every baby to kill every puppy and then boiled the babies alive, it's really cringy when they say shit like "I could kill you, but every living thing deserves life." Fuck that. You show mercy to a truly inhuman monster by quickly and cleanly executing them instead of killing them in the exact same way they killed their victims.

And this is why Roadhouse is the best movie ever!
