"Are you waiting to receive my limp penis!?!"

[–] [email protected] 6 points 12 hours ago

Haha oh my gosh, I was just talking about this the other day. This man is a fucking legend.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

You couldn't stage an arrest video that good. That man could project like a Shakespearean actor.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

He actually was a stage actor who did Shakespeare, no joke.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 13 hours ago

Fuckin a. It has to be the most theatrical video recorded arrest in human history

[–] [email protected] 135 points 1 day ago (2 children)

For those who are confused, it’s a joke from an old Australian YouTube video.

you can learn about it here

Happened in 1991 but not uploaded until 2009. Mirrors the plot of Minority Report (2002). Like he could see the future.

If I recall correctly he'd already committed plenty of white collar crime and by my guess assumed making a big show in front of the cameras would help him out, it really didn't.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 13 hours ago

It helped us out

[–] [email protected] 2 points 15 hours ago

I just watched an interview with him and a police officer on Australian news, and he said it was a case of mistaken identity or something. I didn't fact check anything.

Here's a link to the interview, he seems a bit confused.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago

I've been on the internet for a long time and I'd never seen that one. You're doing God's work.

What is this, Person of Interest?

[–] [email protected] 110 points 1 day ago (2 children)

RIP "are you waiting to receive my limp penis?" guy. He died a couple of months ago.

“are you waiting to receive my limp penis?”

Since seeing this video clip for the first time, I have spent my life since then awaiting the exact set of circumstances which will make this the line I need to deliver. Alas, it has not yet happened.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 23 hours ago

If that's not the perfect motivation to write a screenplay and cast yourself in it, I don't know what is!

He’s now in Aussie Crook Valhalla, enjoying endless succulent Chinese meals with Ned Kelly and Chopper Read.

I'm seeing the video for the first time and discovered where was the beginning of this song sampled from: https://youtu.be/q07G2_zOEWA (badklaat - judo)

Interesting find.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 19 hours ago

Succulent with intent to commit wificide. That's a twelve twenty-seven. Book 'em!

This is Democracy manifest

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 day ago

You read the rolling R's.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Get your hand off my penis!

[–] [email protected] 58 points 1 day ago

Ah, I see you know your judo well

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Crime coefficient at 178, non leatal force authorized.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 19 hours ago

I hope the Agent knows his Judo well

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Please aim carefully, and eliminate the target.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Less lethal just means more practice.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 17 hours ago

An opportunity to shoot them twice!

[–] [email protected] 49 points 1 day ago (6 children)

This would make a great movie. Let’s get that really tall guy from Jack Reacher to be the lead.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago

There's a Futurama episode where they do this!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (3 children)

really tall guy from Jack Reacher

That's Alan Ritchson. I think he can bench a dump truck.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Alan Richson is from Reacher. Jack Reacher is a movie that starred Tom Cruise (who was also in Minority Report)

Same character but different actors. Notably though, the joke is that Tom Cruise is pretty short.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Jack Reacher was a great movie, with really inspired combat scenes depicting the most realistic special forces/Jeet kun do type moves that I've ever seen in movies. Jack Reacher two was a pile of garbage, so I never bothered with the show. Is it any good?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 20 hours ago

The show is completely different, and very well done in my opinion. Alan Richson is a great actor. He’s also in Titans on HBO (or whatever it’s called). I heard a rumor he wants to play Batman.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

The show is amazing! I highly recommend it.

I agree completely with the assessment of the movies too. The first one was a great mystery with a cool plot and action... and the second movie was hot garbage.

Shoutout to The Chats for helping to finally identify(?) Mr. Democracy Manifest.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Wasn't this a futurerama episode?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 22 hours ago

No, it was democracy manifest.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

It was, riffing on Minority Report from 2002

[–] [email protected] 8 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

And that memed ~~britsh~~ Australian dude bitching to the cops very loudly in a "how dare you sir!" ridiculous voice.
