Stan's dad is adamant on teaching the boys not to lose their masculine nature, even if it means inviting strippers over to interrupt their game | South Park on Comedy Central, DStv Ch122
All we had to deal with at that age was 40 mile trips through the mountains of perpetual winter too and from school. I’d take that over Slaneeshi cultists
Randy: destroys the 40k board game Stan: starts 30k, IRL "Stan! Stan! Put the chainsaw down! Let's talk about this!" "It's called a chainsword! Not a chainsaw!"
I'm happy no one in that party messed with their 40K set up. I hardly know anything about the game itself, just a little of the lore, but the amount of care and effort it takes to hand paint miniatures and set up something that elaborate is not lost on me.
you know it would have been very funny if the episode ends with Randy feeling defeated enters the kitchen after Stan and Tolkein are done playing. Randy, alone is wondering why the hell are these kids so infatuated with this stupid hobby, only for him to step on some 40k lore books. An his like "i just don't get what makes 40k special". While he picks up one of the books to read and the front cover of the book is titled "Horus Heresy". Then we get like a segment of Randy facial features changing from ambivalent mild curiosity, to shock and astonishment showing as he reads through the books getting into the epic dark-scifi world of 40k. The next day as Stan and his mom come to the kitchen, to prepare breakfast only to be shocked that Randy stayed up all night reading 40k lore. An Randy has red eyes, with bags weighing heavy, and he says "This is the single most manliest thing i have ever read" before crashing head first on the kitchen table scattering every 40k model on the ground. An Stans like "goddammit dad do you realize how long it took me too paint all these".
It would have been funny if they do an episode that just postpone it. The fact that war hammer is just so expensive like Randy ends up selling. Almost everything to just buy A whole bunch of miniatures.
Yeah, that’s the direction I was expecting and hoping for, but instead we got a skit about toxic masculinity and Andrew Tate… would’ve been funnier if Randy eventually realized how manly/badass 40k lore actually is, so rather than Stan and Token being detached from their masculinity, they’re expressing and exploring it in more imaginative ways. Plus, the idea that there is a problem among young boys and men becoming more feminized is not a particularly novel or controversial concept, but the way they treat it here in this episode, it is treated as at best highly exaggerated and at worst, completely delusional. There is overwhelming evidence to support the ideas put forth by red pill ideology. While people like Andrew Tate may not necessarily present these ideas in the most diplomatic manner, the core of what people like Tate and those who subscribe to the red pill worldview are proven true by empirical fact.
This episode had me utterly rolling. I still have my Imperial Guard (Astra Militarum) army in my attic somewhere and the fact that Randy thinks playing Warhammer tabletop is "playing with dolls" is hilarious to me. Thank you, Trey and Matt for once again doing your homework and going the extra mile.
@@VoiceOfTheEmperor Oh please, don’t bore me with your retarded mushrooms. Want true masculinity? Khorne and the World Eaters, where big muscles and strength are common even in the least powerful.
This episode did a good job of showing how even though concepts like masculinity get heavily politicized, at the end of the day they are just concepts. There’s no real guidebook to being masculine because masculinity is just something that people came up with. It’s cool if masculinity for you means fancy cars and sh*t like that, but just because other guys aren’t living like you are doesn’t mean they’re not real men.
If only Randy knew just how damn masculine 40k really is. I mean like come on, it's about big burly men with big ass rifles that shoot rocket propelled grenades as standard issue weaponry for them and they fight the alien, mutant and heretic. That's about as manly as it gets in terms of nerd culture, other than playing Doom. :D
Do you think they gave Tolkien the Raven guard knowing some of us would mistake them for the BLACK templars? That would be REALLY meta and as such REALLY funny.
Fuck off dude, that shit matters to us. Its our hobby, and we invested our time and effort into them to enjoy our game. Some jackass comes in and busts them, you bet your ass we're skinning him alive.
My cousin tried to do the same thing as Stan dad but I just stayed home painting miniatures all day and play the game with my friends in the Warhammer shop and in my apartment 😂
@@andytorres6052 I didn't mean the episode is woke, I meant the portrait of these people as ideologically alienated is just the same as the woke people in that pc episode
Everyone’s bi***ing about this episode, but I honestly thought it was pretty funny! I think it’s pretty classic Randy and I like the garrison plot a lot! “Wa-why are you saying that- why are you making those words with your mouth-?”
@@LeoTakuVT There was a lot of people who fell hard into the manosphere wormhole, that couldn't take a joke. It also lead to people calling 40k gay on twitter. It was hilarious
Oh my God it’s so funny watching Randy repeatedly spouting these words about society against masculinity thinking it’ll actually get him some undeserved sympathy.
@@slambler6702 Well I meant culturally. Genuinely curious if the type of thinking Randy represents in this episode was more common back then or if its just media presentation.
It's not enough for men to just create art. We need to also be able to compete with each other using that art. Thus why 40k is successful despite being one of the most overpriced products ever produced by man.
Everyone remember maincraft episode? I think this should over by Rendy become ultra fan/costplayer of warhammer 40k with screams: For The Emperor!!” and Stan be😑
Stan's father ironically should have realized that Warhammer 40K will be one one of the few IPs not totally or even partly tainted by woke culture, at least with live adaptation.
Well this comment didnt hold up too well! It’s ok though, fans are holding the line, and Henry C is supposedly throwing his hat in the ring against a possible DEI takeover at Games Workshop.
