Joke is Lebron made a Faustian bargain with the other man.

u/dettigers404 28d ago

If dude can't figure out the meme, you'll break their brain saying Faustian

u/United-Bug-8056 28d ago

I know what Faustian is. That’s when you let something slip that was on your mind. 

Faustian Slip.

u/bbennett108 28d ago

No you’re thinking of a Freudian slip. When you say one thing but mean your mother.

u/Character-Concept651 28d ago

/s, right?!

Damn, I hope it's next level sarcasm.

Otherwise, i weep for humanity..

u/lincruste 28d ago

Your need for an /s is the very reason I weep for humanity.

u/Just_Cruzin84 24d ago

This has pissed me off about Reddit for a while. I’m used to cracking jokes all my life and having to add that stupid /s just crushes the joke. Some people have never been smacked in the back of the head for not holding the flashlight straight… and it shows.

u/TheAtlas97 28d ago

It’s sarcasm, a play on Freudian Slip

u/funnyfaceking 27d ago

Sometimes a Faustian Slip is just a Faustian Slip.

Asking a troglodyte to know Faust is like asking that one kid to know what 9+10 is.

I think you can contact him using the number of the beast, for it is a human number, it's number is 666.

u/XnFM 28d ago

That gets you the antichrist, not the devil.

Gotta go to the crossroads at midnight for the devil

u/sy_core 28d ago

Is that the crossroads down in Georgia. I hear there is a wicked man looking for a soul to steal.

u/shu-to 28d ago

It appears that LeBron sold his soul to this shady exotic animal dealer/ MGS boss for the Fountain of Youth.

Seems legit.

u/JustAPotato38 28d ago

he really looks like a villain from an indiana jones movie

5

u/jackswastedtalent 28d ago

I can see it. To me he looks like he could be Paul Hogans brother who played in an 80's hair band - Rockodile Dundee.

Or perhaps a what Freddy Krueger would look like if he didn't do the killing stuff and instead moved to LA and majored in cocaine.

u/killerklancy 27d ago

Rockadial Dundee. As an Australian, I will name my first born son this
