"Are you waiting to receive my limp penis!?!"

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 9 hours ago

Haha oh my gosh, I was just talking about this the other day. This man is a fucking legend.

[–] Grabthar@lemmy.world 36 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

You couldn't stage an arrest video that good. That man could project like a Shakespearean actor.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 15 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

He actually was a stage actor who did Shakespeare, no joke.

[–] Retrograde@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

Fuckin a. It has to be the most theatrical video recorded arrest in human history

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 9 points 14 hours ago

What is this, Person of Interest?

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 135 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

For those who are confused, it’s a joke from an old Australian YouTube video.

you can learn about it here

[–] RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 32 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Happened in 1991 but not uploaded until 2009. Mirrors the plot of Minority Report (2002). Like he could see the future.

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 15 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

If I recall correctly he'd already committed plenty of white collar crime and by my guess assumed making a big show in front of the cameras would help him out, it really didn't.

[–] bane_killgrind@slrpnk.net 4 points 11 hours ago

It helped us out

[–] essteeyou@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago

I just watched an interview with him and a police officer on Australian news, and he said it was a case of mistaken identity or something. I didn't fact check anything.

Here's a link to the interview, he seems a bit confused.

[–] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 18 points 21 hours ago

I've been on the internet for a long time and I'd never seen that one. You're doing God's work.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 13 points 16 hours ago

Succulent with intent to commit wificide. That's a twelve twenty-seven. Book 'em!

I'm seeing the video for the first time and discovered where was the beginning of this song sampled from: https://youtu.be/q07G2_zOEWA (badklaat - judo)

Interesting find.

[–] kitnaht@lemmy.world 110 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

RIP "are you waiting to receive my limp penis?" guy. He died a couple of months ago.

[–] octopus_ink@lemmy.ml 46 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

“are you waiting to receive my limp penis?”

Since seeing this video clip for the first time, I have spent my life since then awaiting the exact set of circumstances which will make this the line I need to deliver. Alas, it has not yet happened.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 10 points 20 hours ago

If that's not the perfect motivation to write a screenplay and cast yourself in it, I don't know what is!

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 3 points 18 hours ago

Get real drunk and then go out and do your best to get laid—except don’t get hard and while she’s lying on the bed, watching you…there you go.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 18 points 22 hours ago

He’s now in Aussie Crook Valhalla, enjoying endless succulent Chinese meals with Ned Kelly and Chopper Read.

This is Democracy manifest

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 35 points 1 day ago

You read the rolling R's.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 62 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Get your hand off my penis!

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 58 points 23 hours ago

Ah, I see you know your judo well

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 26 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Crime coefficient at 178, non leatal force authorized.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

I hope the Agent knows his Judo well

[–] djsoren19@yiffit.net 8 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Please aim carefully, and eliminate the target.

[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Less lethal just means more practice.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 2 points 14 hours ago

An opportunity to shoot them twice!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 49 points 1 day ago (6 children)

This would make a great movie. Let’s get that really tall guy from Jack Reacher to be the lead.

[–] hanke@feddit.nu 17 points 1 day ago

There's a Futurama episode where they do this!

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

really tall guy from Jack Reacher

That's Alan Ritchson. I think he can bench a dump truck.

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 11 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

Alan Richson is from Reacher. Jack Reacher is a movie that starred Tom Cruise (who was also in Minority Report)

Same character but different actors. Notably though, the joke is that Tom Cruise is pretty short.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago (3 children)

Jack Reacher was a great movie, with really inspired combat scenes depicting the most realistic special forces/Jeet kun do type moves that I've ever seen in movies. Jack Reacher two was a pile of garbage, so I never bothered with the show. Is it any good?

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

The show is completely different, and very well done in my opinion. Alan Richson is a great actor. He’s also in Titans on HBO (or whatever it’s called). I heard a rumor he wants to play Batman.

Shoutout to The Chats for helping to finally identify(?) Mr. Democracy Manifest.

[–] EvolvedTurtle@lemmy.world 9 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

Wasn't this a futurerama episode?

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 29 points 19 hours ago

No, it was democracy manifest.

[–] gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

It was, riffing on Minority Report from 2002

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

And that memed ~~britsh~~ Australian dude bitching to the cops very loudly in a "how dare you sir!" ridiculous voice.
