The unhinged child soldier rearing knife assassin definitely fucking qualifies.

[–] yucandu@lemmy.world 41 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The lightsaber is not a "knife".

Anyone else ever listen to the Stormtrooper Bob audio plays?

Meanwhile, hard liquor and alcohol are supposed to mean that you are normal and the good guy.

I've always thought the trope was based on the idea of stunted development. Kids are heavily encouraged to drink milk, so films making a point of adults drinking it are indicating that there's some part of growing up that they've missed.

I literally hide my eyes and gag laugh pretty much every time these guys are on screen. My husband thinks its hysterical because I find them to be hilarious but they make my stomach wretch.

Neither Homeländer nor McPoyle are represented. This is far from definitive.

Leon The Professional drank milk and he was good from what I recall, minus the whole being a hired killer…

What if someone is drinking chocolate milk? Where are they on the evil scale?

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago

Choccy milk is what the good guys drink!

Milk is a good choice, gotta keep them bones strong

Is a hit of calcium and vitamin d when needed tho

I’d see smoking a cigar in a non smoking section and blowing it in someone’s face as more a telling sign of evil arrogance.

I grew up with milk being the main dinnertime beverage, and I still drink it quite a bit. My step-son's gf clearly did not, and clearly thinks it's strange, but tries to be polite about it. She's asked me if milk is my favorite drink, if I feel like milk goes with most food, and a number of related questions. I think in her family, milk is something some people put in coffee.

[–] Cenotaph@mander.xyz 11 points 2 days ago (2 children)

I've had similar childhood experiences with milk, and as an adult I find it goes so well to wash down basically any carb

[–] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago

I don't see how people physically eat cookies without a glass of milk.
