Oh I spoke too soon: it was, of course, a joke!

The crossover he’s referring to happened in a 1999 episode of Hercules: The Animated Series, why was Bob still watching children’s cartoons at 18?

 

[Oliver Onions]

Too late. Turned out the story is at least 3 years old. All 11 of Bridgett Adams's frozen eggs failed and she can no longer have a biological child of her own.

A pastor like Michael Foster can make it a parable on the sin of hubris, that chasing after worldly values, at the price of subverting God's will, will inevitably lead to disappointment or worse. If he goes along this line Bobby would think he is worse than burning witches.

Sounds like the pastor is making a perfectly valid point, but of course that would clash with Bobby's worldview where every choice a woman* makes is Stunning and Brave, no matter how contradictory, short-sighted or just plain stupid.

*Assuming she's ideologically aligned with Blobbo; otherwise she's a plastic fucking whore who deserves to get her head split

Nothing has to "go wrong"

As much as nothing "goes right"

My own experience with tender misanthropes/narcissists like Bob is that they can have a steady job, a roof over their head, and enough money left over to indulge in a hobby on the side.... but STILL be constantly angry they don't have MORE, attributing their lack of "success" not to having just not worked hard enough or having had a few unlucky breaks, but, that society is not rewarding them enough for their (self obvious) superiority, if not maliciously plotting to keep them "down".

If it's an apartment, they deserved a house, if it's a house, they deserved a mansion, if it's a mansion, they deserved one in a better neighborhood..... and on it goes.

They always think they've been slighted, somehow..... it's where an overly-antagonistic worldview always leads..... to the point where you can find a $5 bill on the ground and curse the world for not giving you a $20....You or I would see winning the lotto as a once-in-a-lifetime windfall. Bob sees it as his destiny that has been denied day after day after day. And even if he did win, it wouldn't make him happy since having been forced to wait so long for it means feelings of "why should I just be happy that someone else finally did their job?!! Where were you 20 years ago? I missed my chances at greatness because I didn't have money, all because YOU didn't give it to me!!!!!!" would overwhelm the occasion.

What we see as revenge fantasy on 40-year old slights best forgotten? Bob sees as finally correcting an error that not only caused injustice then, but continues to this very day.

The way you or I would feel if we woke up to find our car stolen? That's how Bob feels every day he looks outside in the driveway and sees a Ford instead of Ferrari.

The levels of anger and frustration are exactly the same.

Except we only feel it when we seem to have been singled out for misfortune, Bob feels it constantly as he is denied what he sees as his just rewards.... In fact, he may even be less angry at the theft because that would validate his view that the world is out to get him, whereas owning a white-bread car that reliably humms along for 10 years would only prove he's "average" like the rest of us.

TL : DR - Life to an average person is large swaths of normalcy punctuated by occasional good fortune. To the Bobbos of the world, life is constant disappointment, punctuated by moments of being given only what barely passes as "good enough".

This kind of thought actually makes me wonder, if Bob has his own bizarre warped idea of karmic justice. It's like he took, "The geeks shall inherit the Earth" trope a little too seriously and assumed every nerd eventually grows into someone who becomes successful like George McFly and every jock bully must end up as a menial laborer like Al Bundy or Biff Tannen.

It's like Bob expects to be rewarded in life without the concept of hard work or merit. He believes that his encyclopedic knowledge of pop culture and being a loser in school must eventually be rewarded with something. Without thinking about how exactly that's suppose to translate into success in the real world.

There is some truth to the idea of geeks becoming successful, but that requires them to somehow capitalize on their eccentricities and interests. I could argue that James Rolfe or Yahtzee are better versions of what Bob could have been (hell, Bob even worked at the same place as Yahtzee). They're all nerds, but they all managed to create a living off of talking about something they're interested in and raised a family off it, except Bob. Granted none of them are millionaires, but some would argue that doing what they're passionate about already makes them a success. I think a lot of film buffs would love to be able to make a living talking about movies all day.

Just as in the same way as I wonder if Robert doesn't truly, deep down, despise his own blobby self when no one is looking, I have to wonder whether or not he makes these kind of stories up? They're insignificant and small enough to fly under the radar for any non-spergs (i.e. not users on Kiwi Farms), and so are largely risk free undertakings, and even if he got caught in the lie, it would be nonsensical enough not to warrant any serious scrutiny from his fans and detractors. In contrast, Robert has a lot to gain by making these supposed lies: he gets to LARP as someone who has a life, ridiculous as it might be. I can't shake the feeling that Robert is the exact kind of guy who would lie about these kind of "family stories".

They really do believe in some kind of quasi-mystical higher-power... or at least that they're gifted somehow and someday, that will be noticed, when any casual observer can see there's nothing there behind the bloviating and words cherry-picked from a thesaurus. They certainly don't see a need to "prove" themselves, they think that's already been done.

People like Bob have the flow chart of life upside down. You or I see a natural flow from perform task ------> get reward.

But Bob and his ilk see it running the other way : they believe the reward comes first, and that entitles you to perform certain tasks. Instead of putting in 30 years at a company to work up to Manager, Bob thinks you should be declared Manager on your smarts alone, and thus be entitled to 30 years of guaranteed cushy executive work, no questions asked.

You may think that's gross oversimplifying, but, consider I knew a high school friend very much like Bob who I got a job for working with me, and saw first hand that he just wouldn't follow rules/do what was expected of him. When I pointed out that he was never going to get promoted, or might even get fired if he continued putting in minimal effort or doing things "his way" instead of by the book, he told me, almost flippantly "Oh, I"ll work harder when the bosses prove to me they deserve it"

In other words he felt the promotion should be the MOTIVATOR of hard work, not that hard work PROVES you should be promoted....

Yeah, he didn't last a year....

The hilarious part about the whole Aladdin thing is, the legit original story takes place in CHINA. Aladdin is probably CHINESE.

Arabian Nights takes place in China? Sounds way more interesting now.

 

[Cryonic Haunted Bullets]

Cartoons are not real; and no one can establish the origins of the Aladdin story enough to put a date on it.

You can absolutely "wash the Islam" off of Aladdin, because it was painted on to begin with. In the original version of the story - the one that my parents grew up with - Aladdin is a Chinese man.

​

My folks were... disheartened when they came to America to find their folk hero "brown-washed" in such a flagrant manner.

IIRC, Aladdin was originally told by Muslims, but it takes place in China. It is about as "accurate" as you would expect from stories told about China by a Persian villager around 1000 AD, which is to say, not very. China did not have a caliph, for example.

(Ninja'd, sort of.)

Offhand, I can think of only one adaption that set Aladdin in China. It's on Rifftrax.

Also, Aladdin is not part of the 1001 Nights stories. The volume that originally (or nearly so) that brought these stories to the West was titled 1001 Nights and Other Stories. Aladdin was one of the Other stories.

EDIT TO ADD: There's a reference to a clearly Chinese Aladdin story in this very thread, and I seem to recall the Monty Python guys doing a Chinese Aladdin puppet show in one of their books. Rutland Dirty Weekend? I can't remember. Maybe the Brits are unique in thinking of Aladdin as Chinese.
The 1926 German film Adventures of Prince Achmed, arguably the first feature-length animation made, had an Arabian Aladdin too. It's one of those Berenstein Bears things, I guess.

Oh good. I was hoping someone took apart this list. Though you missed one:

LITERALLY there is only one movie on that list which "ends with the white guy claiming a woman" - Die hard.

In fact the other 3 don't even conclude with "living happily ever after"!

It's a stretch, but it's not impossible the female lead in Predator hooks up with Dutch after their helicopter ride. But yeah, wildly stupid and clearly not written by someone who saw the films.

It's from Rambo:First Blood Part II. The shot of the T-800 is from T2.
