its like r/shittyaskreddit except its lemmy
Only because I've been second hand absorbing the show because my dad watches it just about every night, Frank Burns from the TV show adaptation of mash.
He was a crazy fink who ended up going AWOL over a nurse and still somehow ended up not getting arrested.
You can always frag your CO
It is always morally correct
Wait. Tv show adaptation? What other media is there?
Apparently there's a book that came before the movie, published in '68 by 2 people going under the pen name Richard Hooker, and then came a sequel after the success of the movie. MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors followed by MAS*H Goes To Maine.
I didn't known this before having to look up Frank's name. And I'm not sure, thankfully, that my dad knows this or he'd definitely be on the lookout for copies any time he's at a thrift store.
Thanks mate. I just tossed those on my reading list
Yeah, I think there were several instances he probably should have been arrested
Christian God
Well he did commit genocide, among other things
One of the circus workers in Dumbo.
That wasn't alcohol in that drink.
Willy Wonka for injuring children and dubious hiring practices.
Myrtle Warren from Harry Potter for voyeurism.
And all the adults from Harry Potter for endangering children,
all the time.
Goldielocks
Agreed
Johnny Bravo.
No means no Johnny.
The guy from tracker. He's constantly breaking into places, and shooting people. Somehow he gets a pass because he makes a living out of it? Hes a paid vigilante. And even if you ignore that, he probably should have been shot several times sticking his nose into business it doesn't belong in. I watched it for a season and a half and they kept pushing the envelope for how fucked up they could make it. It was making me uncomfortable and then the actor came out and said the shows a success because they allow him to be a "real man" and blah blah. Fuck that guy and fuck his ridiculous show.
He does get arrested several times but he never seems to face any long term consequences
Yeah but he should face prison but magically his lawyer friend always gets him off, or the cops are like "well he helped close the case" and it's fucking stupid.
Agreed, it's bizarre what he gets away with
He's murdered dozens of people. You cant just do that as a civilian, no matter what the circumstances are. It's basically a right wing snuff fantasy.
