Oh man, I did NOT understand this as a kid. Hadn't seen It's a Wonderful Life (only did as an adult), and had no concept of how banking worked. So for me, the gag works a hell of a lot better now

If it's a Wonderful Life is a Christmas movie (because aside from the last scene that everyone remembers, it pretty much has nothing to do with Christmas), then Die Hard is definitely a Christmas movie.

When i think Christmas films, I think 'It's A Wonderful Life' and 'A Christmas Story'.

It's a Wonderful Life.

In my yute, they played it every Christmas because it was free from broadcast fees. (Interesting story, the early days of TV.... How life has changed.)

I imprinted like a little gosling on this movie. It fills my DNA.

By the way, there is a scene that has been cut from the original that I still miss. Cut for time, cut to make room for commercials as more and more commercials were broadcast.

I still miss it....

"I deserve a great life"


Yeah you moron, I'm sure you'll have a wonderful life being morbidly obese.

Some people are just too fucking stupid

And see, this is what makes you a great person. Just imagine if you HADN'T been there to roll joints for your friends -- sorta like It's A Wonderful Life. Without you, your friends would have been trying to make a pipe out of a plastic bottle, a Bic pen, some tinfoil and Elmer's Wood Glue. They might have succeeded, too, much to everyone's horror when the foil rips and they inhaled burning coals of pot directly into their lungs, leading to them dying terribly! But they never built that hellish contraption because YOU were there to roll joints for them instead! And teacher says every time a bell rings, some stoner just tried to make a pipe out of an apple. See? It really IS a Blunt-er-ful life!

I'd just like to say a word about dabs and the partaking thereof: Jesus Christ these things are like getting kicked right in the third eye by one of those horses from My Little Pony. Like maybe the blue one or something. I dunno, I'm pretty high right now, but I'm sure there's a blue one. Anyway, yeah, dabs . . . fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

You don't need to literally out-run the fastest moving particulate matter, as long as you've got a big head start you may be able to make it to what would eventually be a safe zone.

Surely you've got to die TRYING to run away!? What sort of "It's a Wonderful Life" wretched acceptance of your horrendous fate is that? Ah well, all things must end, and it appears in a fiery inferno of pain and suffering as my skin melts off my bones. I think i shall sit here with a feeling of nostalgia and a single tear in my eye, face my camera - which will soon be ash - towards the irresistible harbinger of my demise, and reminisce of old. I have lived a good life, and all that remains is for me and my trusty hip flask to salute the end.. An englishman will not flee in the face of uncertain odds!

Fuck that - LEG IT!

I'm aware of her films, though she didn't fit my specific fetishes (nothing 'creepy', just taste-wise she didn't tickle my fancy).
Still though, this is a great little video, and what I feel is the best way to deal with modern bullying and criticism. She's quite brave to produce this and I only wish there was some way to show support that, coming from a male at least, didn't appear to have strings attached or give the impression of such.
Regardless, I feel extremely bad for her experience but I hope she makes it through her personal trials, graduates, retires from such a rough industry, and goes on to have a very happy and wonderful life in another field of her choosing. Women in that profession don't make nearly enough in exchange for what they give away, let alone relative to the net profit by those that hire them. Most women in this industry deserve to retire as millionaires as far as I'm concerned.

Wish it wouldn't have cut off there. Glad he recorded it. That is some horribly rough shit.

I'm glad we live in a world today where he at least has cultural support for such things. I hope he has a wonderful life away from his ignorant family.

Good stuff - upvote.

So she hates her job, big deal. Did people watching it honestly think that she had a wonderful life pointing at nothing and reading a card? Participating in witless banter with the slightly more attractive woman they got to do the proper news?
