This is literally the plot of Psycho Pass. Highly recommend btw

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 6 points 4 hours ago

I thought it was a poke at Minority Report

"Are you waiting to receive my limp penis!?!"

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 146 points 1 day ago (2 children)

For those who are confused, it’s a joke from an old Australian YouTube video.

you can learn about it here

Happened in 1991 but not uploaded until 2009. Mirrors the plot of Minority Report (2002). Like he could see the future.

If I recall correctly he'd already committed plenty of white collar crime and by my guess assumed making a big show in front of the cameras would help him out, it really didn't.

I've been on the internet for a long time and I'd never seen that one. You're doing God's work.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Haha oh my gosh, I was just talking about this the other day. This man is a fucking legend.

RIP "are you waiting to receive my limp penis?" guy. He died a couple of months ago.

“are you waiting to receive my limp penis?”

Since seeing this video clip for the first time, I have spent my life since then awaiting the exact set of circumstances which will make this the line I need to deliver. Alas, it has not yet happened.

If that's not the perfect motivation to write a screenplay and cast yourself in it, I don't know what is!

He’s now in Aussie Crook Valhalla, enjoying endless succulent Chinese meals with Ned Kelly and Chopper Read.

This is Democracy manifest

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago

You read the rolling R's.

[–] Grabthar@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You couldn't stage an arrest video that good. That man could project like a Shakespearean actor.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He actually was a stage actor who did Shakespeare, no joke.

[–] Retrograde@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Fuckin a. It has to be the most theatrical video recorded arrest in human history

I'm seeing the video for the first time and discovered where was the beginning of this song sampled from: https://youtu.be/q07G2_zOEWA (badklaat - judo)

Interesting find.

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 66 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Get your hand off my penis!

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 60 points 1 day ago

Ah, I see you know your judo well

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 49 points 1 day ago (18 children)

This would make a great movie. Let’s get that really tall guy from Jack Reacher to be the lead.

[–] hanke@feddit.nu 17 points 1 day ago

There's a Futurama episode where they do this!

[–] Gestrid@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago

What is this, Person of Interest?

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 27 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Crime coefficient at 178, non leatal force authorized.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I hope the Agent knows his Judo well

Wasn't this a futurerama episode?

[–] leftzero@lemmynsfw.com 30 points 1 day ago

No, it was democracy manifest.

[–] gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It was, riffing on Minority Report from 2002

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 hours ago

Which was itself riffing on The Minority Report by Phillip K. Dick from 1956 .

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

And that memed ~~britsh~~ Australian dude bitching to the cops very loudly in a "how dare you sir!" ridiculous voice.

[–] ShepherdPie@midwest.social 13 points 1 day ago

"Get your hand off my penis!"
