"Health advice from Rob Schneider" would be a good one in Cards Against Humanity.

[–] Cadeillac@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Gonna try to remember this for one of my blank cards

I was about to say, when did Rob Schneider turn into a vax nut. Then I realized I was thinking of Rob Reiner. It clicked because I heard the South Park movie voice in my head saying, “Rob Schneider is… a stapler!

Tum ta teedalee derp-ee doo.

Rob Reiner is a national treasure and a very definitely sane person, along with being the genius that directed Spinal Tap and The Princess Bride.

Rob Schneider... had a recurring sketch on SNL where he called people silly names while sitting behind a desk.

You forgot to mention he's the worst part of a couple of Adam Sandler movies.

What you mean where he dresses up like a dirty homeless person and yells out you can do it? Cuz like that's the only thing I ever think of when I think of Rob Schneider

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Common misconception.

That's just how he showed up on set.

[–] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I'm offended that you think you can just throw out a single sentence and encapsulate a whole man's career. You're taking the most well know bit and suggesting thats all he did. He's much more than a "one trick pony" and has added more to our cultural lexicon even with his early work in evening TV entertainment. He also is the genius who gave us "when harry met sally" and "a few good men"!

Is the humor too subtle? I'm referring to Rob Reiner.

[–] proudblond@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Aw nobody is getting your joke. I upvoted you but it’s still negative.

[–] TheEEEdiot@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

He had me in the first half.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Hmm... How can I exploit this tragedy to push my own agenda...

I remember seeing a weirdo in he intersection with anti Vax billboards. He was saying how over 50,000 people have suffered from COVID vaccine side effects and this is proof that the vaccine kills. I looked up how many people in my country had the vaccine and compared it to his 50,000 figure. And his number fell right in the 0.05% making the vaccine effective to 99.5% of the populace. Which is common and great success rate for a vaccine. I brought up this number to him and he just yelled more nonsense about freedom

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sooo... he thinks the covid vaccine gives you brain cancer? 🤔

Wow, I've got news then... because between the vaccines and boosters I've had, like 8 Covid shots? Something like that?

My 5G sucks here too.

[–] TurtleTourParty@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

I've only gotten 3 (yes I'm behind) and my 5G is great. I get 700 Mbps on speed test. Maybe you got too many and the 5Gs are all fighting each other!

[–] lohky@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Get fucked, Rob.

[–] thesmokingman@programming.dev 10 points 2 months ago

Damn this is a really weird way to learn a childhood basketball star died. RIP he was pretty rad IIRC.

"the vax-in-ator! makin can-cer!" -Rob (probably)
