lmao, my favorite Kelly genre is overly specific cultural moment fever dream.

The way he always draws his fantasy women in 70s fashion is extremely chefs-kiss

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 29 points 10 months ago

It's just a shame he's pretty libbed up outside of Stan Kelly, because otherwise he made the perfect caricature of the boomer cartoonist stuck eternally in the past.

That woman is clearly Elizabeth, Macho Man isn't gonna like this

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

Macho Man won't have to deal with it, being that this is clear satire as Hogan is in hell

spouse sharing love sponges

Lmao what

[–] Monstertruckenjoyer@hexbear.net 49 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Hogan fucked Bubba the Love Sponge's wife, with said love sponge's enthusiastic consent, which was subsequently recorded and used against him

i'm not well versed in the hot-wife-sharing community vocabulary, but i assume a love sponge is a husband that acts as some kind of cleaning tool

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I like the implication that the sex tape is the only thing Kelly knows Hulk Hogan for, and not the wrestling.

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 7 points 10 months ago

There's a wresting logo on Peter's podium.

It's honestly more convoluted than it is worth knowing.

TL:DR

Wrestler / media bozo Hulk Hogan said racist shit while doing a sex tape with a Radio DJ's wife.

Sex tape details gets released by gossip magazine (Gawker), Hulk Hogan destroys said magazine with litigation using Thiele money.

Thiele had previously been outed as gay by the same magazine and held a grudge.

I'm uh, not sure where "reasonable blacks" or "hanoi cams" come into it.

[–] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 37 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think the camera says "handi-cam" which is what people called camcorders

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 28 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That makes way more sense lol

[–] Belly_Beanis@hexbear.net 25 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Okay but who is that Jesus guy? I'm not seeing any director credits on IMDB. Is that a first name or last name?

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 24 points 10 months ago

Famous LA area minor league bowler

An often forgotten aspect here is that they waited to out him until he was in Saudi Arabia

reasonable blacks

The speech bubble says they forgive him, he said racist stuff. Its not really deep.

hanoi cams Its handi cam. A brand of camera.

he's rich they aren't going to do anything to him. hell they probably traffic for him

[–] Keld@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

We dont have to speak in future tense as if this is speculation, he was fine. But the deliberation involved in his outing i feel is important in understanding the motivations of both parties.

Thiel was outed as a way to taunt him (Motivated in part by his support of open homophobic politicians), and he was angry because they had used his sexuality to threaten his life.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

The timeline where Gawker got Peter Thiel executed by the Saudis would be an improvement

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 10 points 10 months ago

i meant to connote that expecting or worrying that they'd do something to him at the time was unreasonable.

i give zero shits about the anger of traitors for any reason.

[–] Leon_Grotsky@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

I meant more if that character represented anyone specific, the hanoi cams fuckup was purely my goof

and yeah good shout on the SA bit, I was just putting it simply

[–] qaopjlll@hexbear.net 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What about "runnin' wild"? Usually the Kelly character quip is a clever double-entendre but I don't see how that phrase even has a single meaning which is relevant in the context of Hulk Hogan's life.

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 17 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Lol just in case this is unironic:

"What'cha gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on you?!" Was his catchphrase for a while.

[–] qaopjlll@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

LOL thanks, I had no idea that was a thing he was known for saying. I just thought his thing was ending every sentence with "brother".

[–] JoeByeThen@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago
