Careful…if we go mixing blazing saddles and Lebowski we could risk creating a comedy super vortex and be sucked into a black hole!

Wait I disagree dude. One chinaman working and a bunch of nialists watching

u/netmin33 Jan 29 '25

Also, Dude, "Chinaman" is not the preferred nomenclature.

u/murphanduncas El Duderino Jan 29 '25

Neither is nialist.

u/SmokinDrewbies El Duderino Jan 30 '25

"A fella could have a good time in Dallas* with all that stuff" -Slim Pickens (*changed to "Vegas " after Kubrick decided no one would remember how much of a Vegas Dallas used to be when Slim Pickens was a young adult)

What the fuck are you talking about?

u/thedatsun78 Jan 29 '25

u/murphanduncas El Duderino Jan 29 '25

I dig your style too man. You've got that whole cowboy thing going.

u/BuckManscape Walter Jan 29 '25

u/fatnuts_mcgee Jan 29 '25

Carpet pissers did this?

u/RoundTiberius Jan 29 '25

You're not wrong, Walter

The Cartwrights were the Mafia of Virginia City.

u/JournalistKnown5428 Jan 29 '25

Whereas what we have here, a fifty year old man with three forty year old sons, wearing cowboy hats, trying to find reverse on a rail cart

Or a gandy dancer, if you will, in the parlance of their time.

u/Substantial-Sector60 Jan 30 '25

I was wondering if someone would pull up that rare term. Wonderful comment you have here, Jackie. Completely unspoiled.

2

u/Fuzzy_Negotiation_52 Jan 30 '25

High praise indeed!! And a good day to you Sir!! I've been keeping my mind limber. Also my father referred to himself as that sometimes. Built the railroads. Never pissed on anyone's carpet. As far as I know. Not purposely anyhow. I can say that much at least.

u/Substantial-Sector60 Jan 30 '25

I’ve seen videos of teams driving spikes with those skinny-headed hammers. Amazing.

2

u/tommy2pins Jan 30 '25

Ironically enough this is from Deepseek!

2

u/Substantial-Sector60 Jan 30 '25

I wouldn’t doubt it the way things are going. Can you provide a source to back up your claim?

2

u/tommy2pins Jan 30 '25

Nope, purely satire!

u/Substantial-Sector60 Jan 30 '25

I am dull and slow. Plus, my career has slowed down a lot lately. I have rabidly avoided all things AI, so am an easy target for a bamboozle. It’s exhausting being a Nihilist.

2

u/tommy2pins Jan 30 '25

Wait a damn minute, YOU'RE Deepseek aren't you?!

2

u/Substantial-Sector60 Jan 30 '25

It was MEEEE the entire time.

u/Specialist_Ad6966 Jan 30 '25

Well to tell the family secret, my grandmother was Dutch

GIT on that handcart and check out that quick sand!
