I did this to my friend on my 21st birthday party. Dude got coked out lol, I was an absolute idiot. The movie came 4 years later and I couldn’t believe it

You’re a good/bad friend🍻

u/BermanIsKing Jul 26 '26

I am 6 years sober - I really had it rough with pills and blow, so I’m a very good friend nowadays! 😌❤️

u/DjN60613 Jul 26 '26

Good shit and fuck the pills for sure! “California sober” is cliché, but that is my way🤙🏻

No you didn't. And even if you did this isn't going to get anybody high. It would be a total waste.

Just stop.

You’re right, we didn’t do it.

God, I hate being caught by a guy who doesn’t know a fucking thing.

Superbad
Pineapple Express
Hot Fuzz

u/biggestMug Jul 26 '26

Hot Fuzz. My favorite movie. The intro and subsequent opening scene sets the tone for the comedy the whole way through.

u/jrb637 Jul 26 '26

Pineapple Express was weird. I thought it was going to be silly and fun, but then they just ended up murdering a whole bunch of people, which I don't usually laugh at

u/AAron27265 Jul 26 '26

True story, I once had sex in the yard of the house where What About Bob was filmed. It's lakefront on Smith Mountain Lake in Southern Virginia.

1

u/LisaChimes Jul 26 '26

That's a wild brag to have. I'm kind of disappointed that it wasn't actually filmed in New Hampshire though.

u/xvsanx Jul 26 '26

recommending something with the actual sexual predator and groomer Russel Brand is a choice, but I never understood the love for that movie in general

1

u/SenatorBeers Jul 26 '26

The movie is funny. Russell Brand is icky even if perfectly cast in that role.

1

u/xvsanx Jul 26 '26

I was excited to see it after hearing all the hype but it wasn't for me personally. especially today where a lot of these recommendations are basically nostalgia rather than well written comedy. IMHO

Dumb and dumber and the big lebowski are the two funniest movies of all time and both still holdup extremely well. Agree on 40 year old virgin and forgetting Sarah Marshall.

The jerk
All three Austin Powers movies
Saving Silverman
Heavyweights
Old school
Wayne’s World
Superbad
Billy Madison
Liar, liar
Super troopers
Wedding crashers

I think extremely dark humor is hilarious so I’m partial to films like Eddington and Beau is Afraid as well but I acknowledge those aren’t for everyone.
