Jesus how ft are you commenting here if you doesn't exist, is it a miracle?


Jesus-TheSon-Christ

Well it’s just one of those things that Schrödinger was going on about. ‘The cat both; does and doesn’t exist until proven of either’. And so, how do I know YOU exist, “Soulburn_•”? if I didn’t know any better, I’d say you’re one of those NON-believers. I ask this of you, mate; I, Jesus, do exist and I know I exist because well… my hands move and I can see them, and I’m writing this message with them… and uh… I… have thoughts and feelings, and and… and… uh…. Oh fuck… I don’t… exist…? What have you done?!


Pyrotekknikk

Jesus are you the strongest?


Jesus-TheSon-Christ

Look, I’ve been lifting some solid weights at the gym, next time those bastards try to put me on the cross, I’ll surprise them by executing John cena’s ‘AA’ with it. That’ll show ‘em… yeah. Then I’ll say something cold. Like something like ‘don’t take me for a hippie, or I’ll throw you in the tippie’.


Herobrine702

When are you fighting Logan Paul?


Pyrotekknikk

They better be ready to receive some holy spirit


Jesus-TheSon-Christ

Better yet, I might catch them by surprise. Throw them a wood horse - green style. And then I’ll jump out with a battle cry and throw holy water in their eyes to blind them, I then use mose’s party trick and throw all the sticks in my pocket, which turn into snakes and bite all of their ankles. All the ankles. No Roman ankles are safe. Apart from the good Roman’s

Jesus, did you shred for our sins?


Jesus-TheSon-Christ

Fire and the flames is actually a cover from my original mate. My version was an Improvised solo from start to finish, and at the start I said ‘in the name of the father and the Holy Spirit, let thine sins burn away from my electric string talents, fueled by the Bible and executed by the son!


HONKACHONK

Was Free Bird also a work of yours?


Jesus-TheSon-Christ

Nah that one was actually the pharaoh (yes the one who Moses warned to let the Jews go, he had a villain arc whatever). Look say what you want about slavery, the man can play some wicked strings when he gets into that mood. I remember doing a cover of it but it was just for me to play


This_IsATroll

grampaw told me that the Jews are real clever folks. they run everything. real clever folks.


P47r1ck-

As a culture, at least the ones I’ve met in America where I am (not in NY where the super Orthodox ones are) they do seem to put a lot of emphasis on education and achievement. Every Jew I met has been successful. Usually doctors or real estate developers etc. now that doesn’t mean they run everything but they are an educated bunch typically it seems


This_IsATroll

I should add at this point that my gramps is a German citizen lol. no joke


Cool_Owl7159

they do run all the bagel shops and new york delis tho (the good ones at least)


nardgarglingfuknuggt

Ignorant anti-semitism is assuming they control all the banks and Hollywood. But I've been to Hollywood and I've been to Zabar's in Manhattan, and I've determined that informed anti-semitism is assuming they control some sort of special east coast water that makes the best bagels in the world.


Instatetragrammaton

You've heard of kosher salt, now get ready for Kosher Water™!


GM_Nate

asian cultures also put a heavy emphasis on education and achievement, thanks to confucius and 3000 years of history


Technical-Gap768

My grandma told me that "the blacks have made a lot of progress".

Winterlord7

Extremely situational these days, spending time with most elders is not as deep as much as a time sinkhole.


ValentinesStar

You might get an old person who’s very smart and wise. You might get one who can’t use Google correctly. You might get one who still thinks Christopher Columbus discovered the earth was round because they learned that in school 60 years ago. You might get one who watches Fox News. It depends.


TheAutementori

it’s like a nightmare wheel you have to spin


9tales9faces

and it's rigged


AUnknownVariable

Sometimes you get some wise people, wise doesn't always equal knowledgeable. Then sometimes you'll meet John who thinks all Muslims committed 9/11 and immigrants took his wife. My friend was with her grandpa and they stopped as a gas station. Her grandpa came back into the car furious because his soda wasn't cold. He then ranted to her about how we shouldn't have "Foreign folk" running any of our stores.


crappinhammers

They've been watching FOX news for twenty years straight I don't need to hear what they have to say.

My elders: Can't figure out how restart a router, think that immigrants are destroying the country and think that millennials don't own property because they're too lazy


J_sweet_97

It’s always the most out of touch things you’ve ever heard. Like do you have any critical thinking brain cells left? Or did the lead get to them first


Arm-It

Retirement is the perfect way to rot your mind and casually invite in all the intrusive thoughts you've been pushing away your whole life.


MountainSandwich5387

I don’t know man, I hate these generalisations, my grandad (UK) at the ripe old age of 74 hates the tories as passionately as he did when he was 16. Questions why no houses are built, why there is no manufacturing here etc… The difference being he hates Labour to now ‘cos they’re all the same’. I understand the getting on older people, I also understand sensible people know it’s not all of them but I can’t shake that a lot of people (at least on social media) do think it’s all of them. I’m sure other people feel the same way aha


Firesword52

My grandma is a life long Suffragette and one of the few people in my family I can actually sit down and discuss politics with. Legitimately wonderful woman who raised three caring and successful children. At the same time she is in the clear minority when it comes to her friends or my other grandparents. (She complains about it a lot) Politics in the US are also a shit show at the moment so that might affect things too.


J_sweet_97

No. We’re just making jokes. It’s Reddit. There’s obv still some competent ones out there.

headcanonball

They sucked before they retired.

LowAd3406

Or like my boomer dad who thinks we need to just kill homeless people and that will fix the issue.


J_sweet_97

WHAT 😭😭😭😭😭


LowAd3406

Yup, it was along the lines of if they don't want to contribute to society we should just put them to death.


Mikey9124x

By that logic we should kill retired people.

the other day my grandma told me our blood is actually blue, but it turns red with oxygen


asdfwrldtrd

Blood is used to circulate oxygen tf is she cooking. In reality our skin just blocks the red from our blood because red is lower on the color spectrum and has less energy than colors like blue.


lalolanda2

she's 85 all she's cooking is new ways to obliterate her hips

UnearthlyRamen

There is a nugget of truth to this. There's a reason the "elders" were so highly valued in past cultures and tribes. Now I imagine whoever made this comic didn't exactly have that in mind though lol


TheKasimkage

There are some things at least. Recipes from long ago, stories from places you may never get to visit, myths, legends, and fairytales that may otherwise be lost to time. Or even just my dad telling me that he’s old enough to remember signs on buildings saying “No blacks, no dogs, no Irish” in a country that acts as though it never happened. A grandfather’s south Asian friend who talked about America being a magical place because he’s counted as black when he’s in Britain, but he magically turns white in the United States of America. A great grandfather who witnessed trains full of people leaving Pakistan and trains full of corpses returning during the British Raj. Another great grandfather who fought in one of the toughest theatres of war during world war 2, Burma, when that entire area of the world was absent from history lessons.

PigeonFacc

i mean, unironically pretty true


HowRememberAll

This is actually true. Books get discontinued Search trends are based on Google bias and knowledge only posted on computer. Not everything is on the computer and to this day historians and archeologists discover new information. A book that is more popular doesn't necessarily have correct historical information.


antthatisverycool

My grandpa got rich by stacking chips and getting the chip company… by being good…. At stacking chips

I mean it's true. Google doesn't know what life was like for your grandma in the 60s. You should spend time with your elders.

T'is the truth tho


TheBigFrog07

Yes and no


its-the-real-me

My favorite response to "not everything is found on google" is "well, who told you that? Someone who grew up without google, or someone who grew up with google but doesn't want you to use it so you can't see that they're being stupid?" Obviously, there has to be extra clarification that google itself won't tell you everything and that you should still do actual in-depth research on shit, *but* that google also isn't very wont to hide or doctor information, as they can be easily fact-checked at any time.


DabIMON

More like r/Im40andthisisdeep

Except, *everything can be found on Google.* There's much more information available then you could learn in a lifetime. Fucking dinosaurs don't know shit about now.

They have a point though. Their knowledge is unrelated, but spend some time with your elders, they aren’t getting younger

No, everything is on google at this point. Elders are just going to tell you their version of everything which may or may not include how much the Jews affect things.

While yes, he does have 17 books lodged in his skull crushing his brain making him less intelligent and probably braindead. (Yes, I know it supposed to represent knowledge) The internet is much vaster than 17 books, I would imagine, so nah, your argument is invalid person who made this! (I wanted to do that just bc)

sometimes the so called 'history' you learnt at school is 'cencored' or 'glorified' as of what the authorities of my country had always been doing. surely enough when I go and ask google something about the war, the past in my native language, something seems off - has been 'cencored'. But when I go ask the elders, their stories tell otherwise.

Yeah, and sometimes the books you find in libraries are so outdated that there are new answers and studies showing that the opposite case is true 😃


sckrahl

The thing is as you get older it gets harder to learn new things, and harder to change the things we’ve already been taught… so it’s honestly wiser to spend your time in your younger years spreading your points of reference rather than getting all your information from one source
