Allow me to explain my down vote: suggesting a subreddit to cross post to on Lemmy is a display of bad form
I wasn’t suggesting they post it there, I was saying it belongs there. Like as an insult
An absolute insult.
You absolute textbook.
Yeah, you.
Thank… You…?
How dare you say that? you absolute toothpaste
I think his name is based on “Harvey Dent”, and not “dentistry” you absolute dolphin
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
Explain this then.
Well the prequels were supposed to be more of a condemnation of the original Jedi order. The Jedi were supposed to be these hypocritical religious zealots and Anakin was supposed to be drawn to the darkside because of that hypocrisy. It’s why he was “too old” to train because they wanted tiny minds to indoctrinate.
All of this culminates into that penultimate line by Obi-Wan. It’s illustrating that hypocrisy.
However Lucas has the directing chops and subtlety of cocaine bear and this all went flat. You see this more watching deleted scenes and reading some of the side content.
Weird how one of the strongest Jedi in history “just didn’t notice a Sith Lord corrupting the whole fuckin Galactic Senate”
“He trained Like though?”
Yeah, just like Palpatine wanted, so he could get a newer, younger model.
You absolute sith.
You absolute winner
You absolute king
You absolute beast
Im bad at this
Absolute winner and absolute beast are common compliments in my social group.
Thank you, Ted, that was the joke.
I’m confirming it as fact.
No you’re not you absolute gummy bear
You guys are absolute stars!
You absolute value
Get out of here, you absolute integer.
What a non-negative thing to say.
It’s only natural to say it
Hey, get real
You shouldn’t have given me this new power you absolute pork tenderloin!
I love it! Lol
Foods definitely work best, you absolute Dorito.
Don’t be so sure about that, you absolute budgerigar.
You absolute noun
You absolute strawberry plant
You absolute fishtank
You absolute houseplant
Yeah, this checks out
Close!
This has been a Brit thing for a decade or so, particularly Scots and Northern English. The idea is to use a noun that could already be a slightly insulting word to start with, like ‘potato’ in the example
You absolute donkey
You absolute cabbage
You absolute bin-bag
You absolute Belgian
Etc etc
On a similar note, with an “absolutely” and a word ending in “ed”, you get words which mean “very inebriated/stoned”
Common
- absolutely battered
- absolutely blathered
- absolutely pissed
- absolutely wankered
- absolutely trolleyed
- absolutely shitfaced
- absolutely twatted
Less common
- absolutely potatoed
- absolutely cultured
- absolutely traffic coned
- absolutely fishcaked
- absolutely Belgianed
- absolutely bin-bagged
- absolutely cabbaged
- absolutely Tobleroned
“absolutely” in this context can be replaced by “pure” if you’re a weegie
This is absolute Reddit shit.
Equally if you write the word “totally” in front of any noun it means drunk.
“I’m totally suitcased”
That’s not a noun, is it.
Could be a system daemon process though.
And add absolutely to the front of almost anything to describe how pissed you were. I was absolutely trousered/shedded/etc
You absolute water bottle
I’ve watched all of the Gordon Ramsey Kitchen Nightmares series and it’s full of these, except it’s usually fuckin’ instead of absolute.
My favorite is when after having lunch he went back to the kitchen to find they were just microwaving everything. The exchange went something like this:
“Did I have anything for lunch that wasn’t microwaved?”
“your salad”
“Of course you don’t microwave a salad you fuckin’ donut”
Edit
Found the clip at 1:15 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=so5eX9q3k9A
It’s a very British thing. Like adding “ed” to anything to mean very drunk. Hammered, trollied, steamed, cunted etc.
Too much absolutism in this thread.
Good, good.
