I've seen this topic being discussed on a couple of different message boards and I've come to the conclusion that I will never understand how people think of option A when hearing this joke, no matter how many times they try to explain it. I mean, I understand their arguments, but I just don't understand how this can be the first thing they think of.

the bullied becoming the bully in his dreams is still a rather dull and unimaginative joke

This isn't the joke though. As jaymc explained:

No, you see, what's funny about it is the fact that he interprets his dream-state not as the biological process of "dreaming" but as a literal place where he takes on alternate personae.

you guys ever see that simpsons cartoon porn stuff on the internet? real sick shit like homer fucking marge doggystyle, or bart jizzing on lisa's face, or ned and apu gang-banging santa's little helper, stuff like that. so fucked up. what is wrong with people?

ftr, definitely don't believe it's Ralph excelling at sleeping. Vikings aren't known for excelling, they're famous for pillaging. And Ralph wouldn't consider himself badass at anything, let alone sleeping. That's like American Psycho corporate go-get-em I'm a BADASS positioning. Ralph is a little innocent kid. Maybe he'd say, "Sleeping! That's where I excel," but def not "Sleeping! That's where I'm a Viking!" (So only possible solution is that actually Ralph overheard someone who invented this metaphor to mean badassery, Ralph assumed it meant just being good at something, and then said it -- which is totally insane.)

"Oh boy, sleeping! That's where I'm murdery and rapey!"

Assuming there are people who actually believe the other definition tho -- it's like some crazy The Room shit where I come across a person with clearly a totally different perspective on life than I have. One that is influenced by insanity. When dyao watches The Room I want to know if all the character's motivations make total sense?

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:01 (fourteen years ago) link

have never watched the room. and was not trolling itt, tbh and tbf.

I Think Ur a Viking (dyao), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:02 (fourteen years ago) link

New thread. dyao trolling V. dyao totally insane.

Kyle Vogt, who played Peter, quit the film halfway through the shoot.[10][11] His lines in the last half of the film were given to Greg Ellery,[11] whose character is never introduced, explained, or addressed by name.[10] Ellery's character is listed in the credits as "Steven".[10]

omg

Any chance we can just turn this into a The Room thread?

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:05 (fourteen years ago) link

god please no

In an early scene, halfway through a conversation about planning a birthday party for Johnny, Claudette off-handedly tells Lisa: "I got the results of the test back. I definitely have breast cancer."[15] The issue is casually dismissed and never revisited during the rest of the film.[15][21]

OMG

I know we have a thread on this already but WAU

Question: When Denny says 'give me 5 minutes and I'll give you your money' and the thug is like '5 minutes? i don't have 5 fucking minutes, denny' and pulls out his gun -- does that seem totally unreasonable to anyone else? Everytime I see it I'm like, "Dude! 5 minutes! Don't shoot Denny and throw your own life away just because you can't wait 5 minutes, a totally reasonable request, before he gives you the money he owes you."

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:06 (fourteen years ago) link

nb: I've never watched the Room not stoned. (nb I've watched The Room 13 times)

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:06 (fourteen years ago) link

i just typed out and deleted a long retread of pro-b logic so it is not like i don't understand the awful siren song of this thread but even still these arguments went to some weird places

A B C, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:07 (fourteen years ago) link

it's okay because you voted for all three

I Think Ur a Viking (dyao), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:07 (fourteen years ago) link

everything made more sense when i first read about the peter --> steven switch. i was so happy to see peter in those tim & eric old spice commercials, that guy knew what was up!

A B C, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:08 (fourteen years ago) link

the underwear story guy totally knew what was up. he was such a ham!

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:08 (fourteen years ago) link

his blowjob face was epic (and then i saw A History of Violence and Viggo makes a similar face while 69'ing and I thought -- maybe this is just what face actors think you make when you're getting oral sex???)

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:09 (fourteen years ago) link

before i "got it" i actually stopped to think whether i actually did that at one point out of frustration with this thread but that embarrassing fact should not be used to discredit fellow b voters

A B C, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:09 (fourteen years ago) link

face it if the Vikings were that excellent they'd still be around today.

mdskltr (blueski), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:10 (fourteen years ago) link

fyi they made it to the playoffs last year

do they still have those delightful purple helmets?

mdskltr (blueski), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:11 (fourteen years ago) link

this is where ILNFL salivates at making a million brett favre jokes

I Think Ur a Viking (dyao), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:11 (fourteen years ago) link

like, at the end of the You're Tearing me Apart Lisa sequence, Johnny kinda lies on the couch dejected while Lisa is walking up the stairs and he says, "It's alright. I still love you." Why would he say that? She just said she doesn't want to marry him? Why would he try to console her? What exactly is going through his head?

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:12 (fourteen years ago) link

;_;

Marriage, that's where I'm a Viking! (HI DERE), Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:12 (fourteen years ago) link

Why do Johnny and Lisa let two college students break into their home on a semi-regular basis to have sex on their couch?

Mordy, Wednesday, 28 April 2010 17:13 (fourteen years ago) link

if I can get a copy of the room I'll watch it and let you know my interpretations mordy
