I assume this meme was made by an American.

It's spelt: C U N T And in my country it's not gendered language.

I am a white man and I've been called a cunt more times than I can count. And I've called my friends and random people a cunt so many insane amounts of times that even the greatest computer on earth couldn't calculate it.

And I've called my friends and random people a cunt so many insane amounts of times that even the greatest computer on earth couldn't calculate it.

So about 42 times?

[–] Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de 37 points 13 hours ago

It's pronounced

C

U

N

T

Thank you for your attention.

[–] LogicalDrivel@sopuli.xyz 56 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Cunt.
The word is cunt. Cunty Cunty Cunt.
There, now you can rest easy and not have to wonder what the word was.

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 1 points 3 hours ago

The artist knew... but they managed to get your engagement here, so it worked.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 4 points 12 hours ago

Spelling the word Cunt like cunt is cunty.

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 7 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Hey there,
I was going to reflexively make that Harry Potter joke about the guy that dies buy decided to take this opportunity to say FUCK JK ROWLING, may her cunt be dry and itchy and her toenails grow into her skin.

Have a nice day

Good one. The only worthy reply I can think of:

Spoiler for TitanicFuck JK Rowling

[–] aldhissla@piefed.world 16 points 12 hours ago

Fuck your censorship, cunt.

Simple as.

[–] darkmogool@feddit.org 12 points 12 hours ago

Found a spelling error. It's written: CUNT

[–] mlg@lemmy.world 16 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Me watching people take MCU seriously after endgame 7 years ago in which it became painfully obvious Disney ran out of ideas just like they did with every other franchise they own.

[–] Vespair@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Comics have always waxed and waned. Some of the great storylines in comics happen between some of the worst. Imo it makes sense that the films following this model could do the same, and writing all of the off forever because you haven't been 100% satisfied every time seems silly.

It's okay to not like the MCU, and it's okay to be done with it. But you seem to be suggesting that the MCU was once good in your eyes - why do you think that somebody that has been proven to you to be good once is not capable of being good again?

[–] SpongyAneurysm@feddit.org 2 points 39 minutes ago (1 children)

If you want, you can try to sell it to me.

I was a teen when the very first Spiderman movie came out, and I found it quite entertaining at the time. (Kirsten Dunst might have had something to do with it)

I was also ok with the X-Men and saw Iron Man, which still was okayish but started to feel a bit silly to me.

I've kinda lost interest in those kinds of superhero movies. Sure I kinda liked Watchmen, if only for the great soundtrack, and ofc I've seen the praised Batman Trilogy (Begins, Dark Knight, Returns), I also kinda enjoyed Kickass for being partly a parody of its own genre. But after that era, I've never really felt the urge to watch any of these movies.

What am I missing out on? Which movies do you consider a must see (or at least great entertainment) even for someon who doesn't know a whole lot about the MCU beforehand and has never read a comic book like that?

[–] Vespair@lemmy.zip 1 points 21 minutes ago* (last edited 17 minutes ago) (1 children)

I mean, don't take this the wrong way, but I don't work for Marvel Studios marketing department so I don't really feel much incentive to sell you. I got no vested interest here, I just thought it was odd that the dude could acknowledge THING could and has been great in the past but while thinking THING couldn't be great again despite the prior acknowledgement. That's all.

That said, I am a comic book diehard and I am also still very onboard with the MCU. I'd say the new Spider-Man is one of my favorite films in the greater universe.... but it's also absolutely not a film you should go into blind. It requires at least having seen the previous Tom Holland Spider-Man films, bare minimum.

But if you're at all interested in the MCU and haven't dipped your toe in yet, my recommendation is simple: Watch Guardians of the Galaxy vol.1-3. These are, imo, the peak of the MCU (GOTG vol.2 is one of my favorite movies of all-time, in fact) and they're also in some ways the most self-contained, so they don't rely on a lot of connective tissue for their impact.

[–] SpongyAneurysm@feddit.org 1 points 13 minutes ago

I took you for a fan, that's why I was asking. I meant 'sell' figuratively ofc.

I wasn't wrong, since you took the bait.

And I think my local library has Guardians of the Galaxy lying around on DVD. So I might actually give those a shot some time soon. Or at least the first one, and see how it goes. And maybe that Spider-Man incarnation. At least he's a character I'm kinda familiar with. I remember playing him in Marvel vs Street Fighter a lot.

[–] Burghler@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 hours ago

YouTube will do that anyway by just frontpaging some insane spoiler vids thumbnail and title.

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 37 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

I sure hope Uncle Ben makes it.

[–] No_Money_Just_Change@feddit.org 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Uncle ben does, in fact, not make it. He has nothing to do with the creation of the movie as he is the mascot of a rice company, not an employee in film production

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Woah, spoilers!

[–] 7U5K3N@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 15 hours ago

One rule. No one stays dead but Uncle Ben.

[–] MimicJar@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

The Thing should be fine.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 13 points 15 hours ago

Didn't they already do a Spider-man movie?

[–] RidderSport@feddit.org 3 points 11 hours ago

Dumbledore dies...

[–] yoru77@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 11 hours ago

I bet there is a spider... or even a man...

[–] yeahiknow3@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

Aren’t the only people who care basically children? What is the context in which you are spoiling the plot to a children’s show?

[–] GalacticSushi@piefed.blahaj.zone -2 points 7 hours ago

There are a lot of adults who take the MCU way too seriously.

[–] ThanksObama@sh.itjust.works 12 points 17 hours ago (3 children)
[–] EnsignWashout@startrek.website 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

You've misspelled "Fuck JK Rowling" there, mate.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

only metatron(alan rickman,rip) is the true snape.

[–] TIEPilot@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

I came here to say this, well done.

[–] vogi@piefed.social 2 points 11 hours ago

I think Spider man defeats the Bad guy in a very predictable manner.

Hope this wasn't actually a spoiler I wouldnt know I thought they stopped the series with Endgame.

Rosebud is the sled!

[–] lastlybutfirstly@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (3 children)

If a movie can be spoiled by revealing a plot twist, it's not a good movie. There are a lot of great movies with great plot twist, but even if you know the twist, the movie is not ruined at all and is endlessly rewatchable.

This is why I hate mysteries. Like Murder on the Orient Express. The most interesting part is the ending and the rest of it is a forgettable man with a moustache talking to other forgettable people for two hours about forgettable stuff. The worst episode of Law and Order is better than any given mystery story.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 5 points 6 hours ago

If a movie can be spoiled by revealing a plot twist, it’s not a good movie.

If a movie can be ruined by knowing the plot twist then it is not a good movie. Not knowing a twist can improve the experience of the movie because it has more of an impact when it is unexpected. Also knowing if someone does or does not die in a movie really affects any tension the first time watching, which can make a lot of tense scenes meaningless the first time through.

For example, the Sixth Sense is great if the plot twist isn't spoiled because the first time you watch it with one context up until the twist and a rewatch gives you another while you see all the signs of the twist. It is still a good movie even if it is spoiled by knowing the plot twist, but the experience is different.

[–] VonReposti@feddit.dk 4 points 13 hours ago

It doesn't matter how good the movie is, knowing a plot twist takes away some of the suspension.

I never watch a trailer before I watch a movie. I'll read who the director is, maybe some of the cast, the short intro line, and the genre. That's it. Anything more spoils the fun. I can never go blind into a movie on a rewatch, so going blind into the movie on a first watch is the only opportunity.
