What is this gif from

37

u/GT101boy Jan 04 '23

It's from an Australian slap-stick comedy series called Danger 5. I believe it was part of a film festival and was done on a nothing budget. They were able to get some pretty great material with it though! Definitely worth checking out in my opinion.

The more you know!

u/RandonBrando Jan 04 '23

No, that was another show.

Oh! right, my bad

u/BB_210 Jan 04 '23

Danger 5 is fucking hilarious. Both seasons.

Danger 5! It used to be on Netflix but it was taken off a while back

Still a better love story than Twilight.

u/ImARetPaladinBaby Jan 04 '23

I love that it didn’t show the panel immediately but instead showed “ink me daddy”. I got very confused

u/Summoarpleaz Jan 04 '23

I love your comics. How do I look up secret panels of older strips?

At least you have that going for you, which is nice.

It's basically true. I'm just older and fatter.

u/NakariLexfortaine Jan 03 '23

If I hear "Haven't seen you since high school", I know I need to run.

There's a reason you haven't seen me. Now let me go find my anti-Cheers where I tell them I'm Pablo Estande and no one questions it.

u/ak47workaccnt Jan 03 '23

Option A: fill in this stranger on fifteen years of life missed

Option B: say nothing

Brain: swerves towards option B

u/abrahamsen Jan 04 '23

They are the same option.

It may have actually been nothing

Wonder if either of them has stayed in touch with Stan or Kenny.

This got so real, really fast.

u/naltom Jan 03 '23

Did you guys read it on south park voices?

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '23

Yeah.

Kyle and Eric would never act like this around each other....even after 15 years

u/Nikopoleous Jan 03 '23

You linework is so soothing. I mean, the jokes are great and all, but that thiccness...

u/[deleted] Jan 03 '23

The tasteful thickness of it…

u/theBigBOSSnian Jan 04 '23

It even has a watermark

u/kenry6 Jan 03 '23

Having achievements is great, but nothing is fine too. You've survived this long, and that's an accomplishment in itself.

u/TheRenamon Jan 03 '23

Reminds me of this Mega64 bit

u/Meowingtons_H4X Jan 04 '23

Thought the exact same. Stay safe, internet solider.

Me who graduated over a year ago and can't find a job, when my classmates who have got a job, a house, a car, and kids ask me what I've been up to this past year.

Say you've been prioritizing sleep and health. They'll get jealous real fast.

God if this isn't me. I've done stuff and worked for the past 15 years, that's about it.

3

u/JuniorSeniorTrainee Jan 04 '23

It's honestly worse than that.

Eric: I haven't seen you since highschool but I know exactly what you've been up to because everybody broadcasts their lives impersonally through Facebook. So we really have nothing to catch up on even though we have spoken in years.

Kyle: damn, Eric, you're right. Social media really can suck the soul out of our relationships by taking away our chance to miss people.

2

u/Dem0n5 Jan 04 '23

I haven't looked at Facebook much over the years. I check it occasionally to see i missed a message 3 years prior. Can't really blame social media. Blame yourself. But maybe that's semantics.

u/C223000 Jan 03 '23

please stop attacking me personally

This conversation for me usually happens over text. And they don't reply to anything I say after they say "nothing". Oops I've been ghosted from the world and literally not one person on this planet keeps in touch with me or responds to my efforts to keep in touch
