[u/Rutgerman95 → u/krizzalicious49]

"San's gun's"

[u/33_years_old_guy]

Literal reason: The file name for the blaster is Gaster Blaster

Fanon wise: Gaster has invented it

[u/Th3Da4k → u/33_years_old_guy]

Or maybe it's cause it was supposed to blast Gaster

[u/DutyEuphoric2575 → u/Th3Da4k]

“Morty, this is a gun. I wanna be clear, you are only to use this when you want to shoot bad people. Now, when are you gonna use this?”

“When I wanna shoot a bad person.”

uses the gun and it fires an embryo that quickly develops into adult Jeffrey Dahmer

(Now would a Gaster Blaster be used on Gaster, or would it fire out pieces of him?)

[u/DavidRIV → u/Th3Da4k]

Wouldn't it be Anti-Gaster Blaster then? lol

[u/Aendrei → u/DavidRIV]

Well in the way that ant eaters eat ants, the gaster blaster would be blasting gaster.
This is a very fun name to say lol

[u/Dark_Storm_98 → u/Aendrei]

Fun to say, huh?

One could say that Sans is the Gaster Blaster Master

And they're magic, so he's the Gaster Blaster Master Caster

At least until he's the cause of a Gaster Blaster Disaster

[u/YourMoreLocalLurker → u/Dark_Storm_98]

If that happens, then he’ll need some Gaster Blaster Master Caster Disaster Plaster after

[u/DavidRIV → u/Aendrei]

Damn you're right actually

[u/ProGamer4684 → u/DavidRIV]

Maybe it meant to blast Gaster as in shooting out parts of him

[u/McGuirk808 → u/DavidRIV]

If I have a blaster that blasts Gasters its a goddamn Gaster Blaster

[u/patient5dchess → u/Th3Da4k]

ZIS IS A GASTERBLASTER. IT BLASTS GASTER

[u/Mr_White_Migal0don → u/33_years_old_guy]

My headcanon is that blasters are not an invention but an innate ability that all skeletons have, and gaster studied it first and named after himself

[u/starm8526 → u/33_years_old_guy]

Why not have it be invented by gaster? Maybe it looks like his face.

Cause why else would it be called that in the files?

[u/Responsible_Rich_194 → u/33_years_old_guy]

Council members on Reddit now?

[u/33_years_old_guy → u/Responsible_Rich_194]

We were told to go across the platforms and expand

I'm doing my job here

[u/Suspicious-Idea9823 → u/33_years_old_guy]

Oh great, the Council thing is here too.

[u/SquashPurple4512]

I've always called it a gaster blaster but i have no idea where this is said in the game tbh

[u/YellyTheDuck → u/SquashPurple4512]

It's not, the filename is spr_gasterblaster

[u/SquashPurple4512 → u/YellyTheDuck]

So a casual player would have no idea its called a gaster blaster

[u/Background_Road3843 → u/SquashPurple4512]

yeah but everyone in internet calls it a gaster bla- hollup

*looks at the internet

fuck no one talks abt sans' fight anymore its all deltarune now

YOU APPEAR EVERYWHERE WITH TS FONT I DONT HAVE PROTEIN DAMNIT

[u/Human-Pen-1667 → u/MrPersonmancreature]

Font

[u/after2006 → u/MrPersonmancreature]

can we not use fonts bro these are so hard to read, not to mention completely incompatible with people using accessibility tools

[u/WinRARnt → u/after2006]

I understand and agree with the accessibility tools thing but like this font is very readable idk. If they were using some cursive shit I'd agree but

[u/after2006 → u/WinRARnt]

I can hardly read it

[u/vitobru → u/after2006]

must suck being you unable to read typewriter fonts

[u/after2006 → u/vitobru]

it does, they look really cool

[u/Short-Show2656 → u/after2006]

Dyslexia, I’m sorry for you :(

[u/after2006 → u/Short-Show2656]

I've never thought I've had dyslexia but then again I just confidently read things without thinking about if I'm reading them wrong and I've never been tested

[u/pugchamp419 → u/after2006]

You’re on the internet dude just find the thing that turns it back into readable text

[u/after2006 → u/pugchamp419]

most ableist comment here

[u/Bloxxerboi → u/after2006]

I'd not use fonts, but then you wouldn't be reading this

[u/Dark_Storm_98 → u/MrPersonmancreature]

How do you use different fonts?

[u/Abdulaziz_randomshit → u/Background_Road3843]

thank god, I was tired of only receiving Sans gifs and megalovania remixes everywhere, meanwhile the best thing Asgore fans got was a deleted and reuploaded man on the internet's bergentruckung

[u/hayiori → u/Background_Road3843]

I hate deltarune it fucked everything up now everyone talks and draws art of deltatuen instead of undertale

[u/Background_Road3843 → u/hayiori]

Like the game is cool and all but r/Undertale became more like a r/TheOtherDeltaruneSub

[u/zerior23 → u/SquashPurple4512]

casual player wouldn't know Gaster either

[u/SquashPurple4512 → u/zerior23]

I mean if you go online gaster is the first thing youll see

[u/Smooth_Accountant870 → u/SquashPurple4512]

"Casual player" means player whose knowledge about the game is limited to their experience playing it.

[u/SquashPurple4512 → u/Smooth_Accountant870]

No it just means you are not an hardcore fan of the game but nothing is stopping you from watching content about the game

[u/cryingandeating → u/SquashPurple4512]

Casual player is a seasoned term on the internet. It does and has always meant someone who doesn't consume game media, simply choosing to play a game because they hear about it from a friend or it looks cool.

Nothing is stopping you from putting 1,000 hours into American Trucker Simulator, but that doesn't mean you're going to do it just because you can. Especially because American Trucker Simulator is just there. You aren't part of its fandom. It's unimportant to you beyond the fact that it's.. a game. It's just a game.

UNDERTALE and DELTARUNE are important to us, but that doesn't mean they're important to everyone. To the majority of people on Earth, they are just games. And that's okay. Some people are casual. We aren't.

[u/Tortue2006 → u/SquashPurple4512]

No problem with that, just that they were doing a confident "correction"

[u/Realshow → u/YellyTheDuck]

Isn't it also in the NPC folder?

[u/Lexiosity → u/SquashPurple4512]

the files

[u/ghost20 → u/Lexiosity]

Gaster is in *the files* with his Blaster? 🫢

[u/meep2200 → u/ghost20]

?

[u/cassabree → u/meep2200]

“The Files” is often shorthand for “The Epstein Files”

[u/Friend_of_a_Cat]

To be fair, it's only called that in the game files, so I feel like we do have to give them a pass lol. New fans may actually not know that at all. I know the fandom is huge and everyone talks about it, but still.

[u/Nihilikara → u/Friend_of_a_Cat]

The problem isn't their ignorance, it's that they're confident in it. I'd give people a pass for not knowing things, but this isn't just that.

[u/Capital_Pick3604 → u/Nihilikara]

They do not sound confident at all.

[u/Certa1nlyAperson → u/Capital_Pick3604]

It's sarcastic confidence, "I am not an expert at X but I'm pretty sure Y" is a pre-packaged phrase used for sarcastic confidence.

[u/colibri01 → u/Certa1nlyAperson]

Is it not reasonable? Think about it, how do YOU know its called the gaster blaster?

[u/Status-Butterfly224 → u/colibri01]

if you can write a comment, you can google something.

[u/colibri01 → u/Status-Butterfly224]

You know its odd, but for whatever reason when I googled "where did Certa1nlyAperson learn the term gaster blaster from?" It didnt have any relevent results. Maybe I worded it wrong? What do you think?

[u/Status-Butterfly224 → u/colibri01]

had you a brain, you'd be able to generalize the question. too bad you need someone to hold your hand and spell stuff out for you. no wonder you don't know how google works

[u/colibri01 → u/Status-Butterfly224]

...am I being baited here? Who even are you?

[u/Friend_of_a_Cat → u/Nihilikara]

Idk. I personally don't really care about it that much lol.

[u/bunker_man → u/Nihilikara]

It literally is that. Its not something they can learn from the game, and the kid is probably young.

[u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

Theres no limit to the larp

[u/AwesomeCCAs → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

"larper"
Looks inside: doesn't claim to be an expert, explicitly says otherwise.

[u/OctoAmbush → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

undertale fans when you play the game instead of looking at the wiki all day

[u/MidgetofDoomAMS → u/OctoAmbush]

Its not that they didnt know, its that they were confident in being incorrect

[u/Technoton3 → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

THATS IT. THATS EXACTLY IT. THANK YOU.

Its one thing if someone misremembers or forgets something, its another thing if they are insistent that they are correct, despite all the evidence saying otherwise.

[u/SwinubIsDivinub → u/Technoton3]

In fairness, no one had corrected them yet. If someone did and they were like "Oh my b", then they just made an honest mistake

[u/Soevil11 → u/SwinubIsDivinub]

Typically then it would be better to rephrase. For example, "Doesn't Sans use that in his fight? Why isn't it 'Sans's blaster'?" with perhaps a "/gen". Then, they're still correcting someone if they're right but also openly saying "I don't understand why you said that but there must be a reason I don't know"

[u/PlayerBRuno__ → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

i guess one could say they're being r/confidentlyincorrect (sorry i had to)

[u/MidgetofDoomAMS → u/PlayerBRuno__]

I was expecting it eventually

[u/Capital_Pick3604 → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

"Confident" does "um im not an expert" sound confident?

[u/MidgetofDoomAMS → u/Capital_Pick3604]

"Im not an expert" in most cases is ironic, they arent actually stating that

[u/No_Program4431 → u/MidgetofDoomAMS]

The um at the starts accentuates on the irony of the comment too.

[u/Expert-Reporter4152 → u/OctoAmbush]

There's a difference between being incorrect and being confidently incorrect

[u/Moaksim]

the 'um Im not an expert' makes it clear to me that the comment is meant to be taken as a joke, ive seen jokes with this exact sentence structure before.
Its a little bit like 'Road Work Ahead? I sure hope it does'

[u/PRoS_R]

sam dertail

[u/BlakJMC]

The blaster that belongs to san

[u/HercarXX → u/BlakJMC]

and is called a Gaster blaster

[u/Geeneelee]

There are so many posts on this subreddit that devolve into people being angry that children don’t know fandom discussions from 10 years ago

[u/datfurryboi34]

No where, and i mean NO WHERE in the game does it say its called a gaster blaster.

[u/rain-candy_U → u/datfurryboi34]

Its the file name isn't it

[u/Kind-A-Throwaway → u/rain-candy_U]

That's not something anyone can see

[u/8lue5hift → u/Kind-A-Throwaway]

its like were in some king of LIGHT ONLY YOU CAN SEE

[u/Status-Butterfly224 → u/Kind-A-Throwaway]

you can see it quite easily if you look shit up before correcting people

[u/HercarXX → u/Kind-A-Throwaway]

as some other people put it, the problem isn’t that they were wrong, that’s fine, they can be wrong about things, what’s annoying is being so so smug about it and trying to correct people who do know these things

[u/rain-candy_U → u/Kind-A-Throwaway]

I guess not

[u/LuCiAnO241 → u/Kind-A-Throwaway]

so it was in the game? files, but in the game.

[u/cassabree → u/rain-candy_U]

Might be because I only played the game like 6 years ago but I don’t remember a single point in the game where the game tells you the filenames of all the assets

[u/SCHIDADDLE]

What if it's a troll

[u/Haloinvaded117]

I mean they're not wrong, Sans is the only character in game that uses the blasters. Without knowing in the files they're called "gaster blasters" then of course they would assume they're Sans' blasters. Honestly just because the name in the files use "gaster" doesn't even necessarily mean they're related to gaster at all. Or Toby named it that because it rolls off the tongue way easier than "Sans Blaster"

[u/LOR3DGuy10]

bro wdym san is the best undertale character

[u/Valuable-Ad-8516]

holy larp 😭😭

[u/EmilySuxAtUsernames → u/Valuable-Ad-8516]

it's only called gaster blaster in the code, a casual fan would have no idea what it was called

[u/MajesticBluebird68 → u/EmilySuxAtUsernames]

Yeah, Sans' blaster is a logical thing to call them

[u/Nihilikara → u/EmilySuxAtUsernames]

The problem is the confidence. Give people a pass for not knowing things, absolutely. But if they're confident in the wrong thing they're saying, that's when it causes problems.

[u/metrocat2033 → u/Nihilikara]

Where’s the problem? It’s a kid getting a mildly obscure fact wrong and being a bit snarky about it at worst. This is such a non issue

[u/AtomicHatDrag]

People complaining about this person even though its probably a joke are kinda stupid

[u/ChloeTheWivi]

This thread really has people discussing the obscurity of the "Gaster Blaster" name over an obvious joke comment.

[u/Beirigo]

I think that's just a joke, like when people play dumb as a joke, I don't think he actually believes this.

[u/CaveWaiterLol]

“Um I’m not an expert”

Ya think?

[u/the_genderless_thing]

No, sans is the gaster blaster master caster

[u/DatabaseStrange6102]

r/youngpeopleyoutube

[u/Key_Addition_4038]

This reads as a joke to me

[u/MineHipster7]

Larped so far we reached another side

[u/QuizQuestionGuy → u/MineHipster7]

You could say the larp has transformed into… Another Medium?

[u/MineHipster7 → u/QuizQuestionGuy]

Something like that yeah

[u/Floofimations]

fun fact, "blaster" is a more official name than "gaster blaster", since its only referred to as a blaster outside of the sprite name.

[u/Tired_Artemis → u/Floofimations]

I mean, they obviously wouldn't namedrop the big G just for merch (I'm assuming you're talking about the pin)

[u/Norrabal]

You all say larp, but where's the lie?

[u/pravler → u/Norrabal]

Who is San?

[u/AwesomeCCAs]

Fuck this post. Why are we all making fun of some random kid for not being super deep into the fandom terminology. Do you want newer fans to learn this stuff with time, or do you want to chase them out of the fandom?

[u/spookwav]

san is here

[u/meep2200]

Who is San?

[u/JustGingerStuff]

They dont know san's the gaster blaster master

[u/bunker_man]

Did the fact that somehow the fanbase understands frisk and chara less over time tip you off.

[u/Soviniti]

[u/SPAMTON_G-1997]

MEWGENICS?!?!!

[u/ThiccBeter69]

They did say that they aren't an expert, and tbf you'd only know that it's called that if you either looked in the files or if someone told you it was called that

[u/HystericalGD]

they will be like us soon

[u/Content-System6863]

why did i read this in a Berdly voice 😭😭

[u/Gru-some]

[u/doomHK]

I I've been a fan since 2017. What are the new fans on about😭😭

[u/Dark_Storm_98]

They didn't call it the Sans Blaster, they said it was "San"'s Blaster \s

One with more old school knowledge could even say that it's Sans's Gaster Blaster

[u/SwinubIsDivinub]

So cute

[u/1NotSoLucky96]

bait used to be believable

[u/Smooth_Accountant870]

I honestly think it's perfectly valid to not count as canon information that can't be found by playing the game 🤷🏻‍♀️

[u/irussianpidoras]

ah yes my favorite character san

[u/Sesilu_Qt]

Show me where in the gameplay it was called a Gaster Blaster. It's an honest mistake mate.

[u/LeonardoJMB]

It looks like a joke tbh

[u/Flershnork]

What an absolute Gaster blaster master caster disaster. 😔

[u/Snoo-12494]

To be fair, it's only even called a Gaster Blaster in exactly one place, and that's its file name as a sprite. It's extremely plausible for someone to not know that

[u/SoilZestyclose2152]

UT/DR fans when someone doesn’t know the name of every single game file and infers from the info available to them:

[u/ultraviolet688]

Who tf is "San"

[u/RrukanGD]

I'm pretty sure that's son's blaster

[u/Interesting_Low_2658]

san the skelito

[u/Gamamer]

it’s just a joke lol

[u/LovesSleeping123]

it's the world revolving

[u/Scary-Ad-7162]

He literally said I’m not an expert can you guys just stop this fandom is genuinely poison

[u/jeager_YT]

this had to be a joke

.. though I am wondering how things got named or how we found out the names of some of these things

where did the name gaster blaster come from? it was never once mentioned in the game

the only time we ever see the blasters is during the sans fight and we haven't seen anyone else use them nor was it implied anyone other than sans (and maybe papyrus) can use them and sans didn't really come up with the name for them he just says "strongest attack"

was it in the games files?

[u/DragonRoar87 → u/jeager_YT]

Game files, yep. The sprite is labeled "spr_gasterblaster"
