If you know the Sinatra version, it wouldn't occur to you to ask which version they're referring to.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 months ago

If you know the Sinatra version you might also know it was done by tons of other people, like Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Mel Tormé, etc. Sinatra wasn't even the original.

Depressed gay people can come from a stable household

Bayonk Evangenatra would be the applicable answer here.

No, you must select ONE of the playable classes.

And they can have a vast spectrum of musical tastes. But they will all know "Fly me to the moon."

Ehh my parents are divorced, which I guess has been pretty stable for the last couple decades.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Divorce is always good news.

"Stable marriage"

You vastly over credit us Sinatra fans

I've played Fallout, that enough?

Possibly ghoul too

Ouch. Not wrong but ouch

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (2 children)

If I know all three versions, I'll explode?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No, it means your parents had a stable marriage but you are gay and depressed.

Fake. My parents didn't have a stable marriage

If you have seen Eva but you don't remember this song, you should cancel your Netflix account and find which of your friends runs a Plex server.

Hey hey.....or jellyfin

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago (1 children)

ehm I am gay and my parents were divorced. But I only know the Sinatra version. I don't even know the other two bands

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago (4 children)

Bayonetta is a video game, and evangelion is a manga-turned-anime. I was completely unaware that either one had songs called "fly me to the moon" though.

Fellas is it gay to like a really fun and challenging action game that stars a super hot and badass woman protagonist

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Obviously it's gay to like women, since women like men so you indirectly like men /s

Counterexample: I only know the Sinatra one (I'm so uncultured) but my parents split 32 years ago (aw hell; that long ago?) . They're now both split from their seconds.

Divorces are hell; and in some areas like ours, the one party can end up on disability from the heart attack brought on by the stress and paying 105% of that disability benefit to the spouse.

Have instructed the wife to just murder me in my sleep.

From the Halo 1 warthog grenade jump compilation?

If they say "by 王OK", they have it on repeat.

Fly me to the moon 王OK

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Didn't know what to expect, but this artist is amazing.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (3 children)

What about, "isn't that a song by Savage Garden?"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

🎶Fly me to the moon and back if you'll be, if you'll my baby who plays among the stars🎵

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Oh no no. You just unlocked some weird high school cringe memories

Why does Bayonetta make you gay? Is the Twitter OP assuming you would be asking a woman?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

they, like most people, have a higher opinion of SmallAnt1 than SmallAnt1 himself ever will

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And if they say, "I don't know, I haven't heard it", then what?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago

They're straight, manic, and their parents never met each other

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Accurate; I'm depressed.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Ok but this is exactly the order those are sorted and accessed in my mind.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What if I learnt it in my moon jujitsu class?

What if I say Squid Game?

And if I don't know the song at all?

Knowing it from Evangelion probably means you are gay, depressed, and have divorced parents.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And the divorce is your fault

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Your mother and I would still be together Shinji, if you'd just piloted the Eva.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Well, guess I'm depressed

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I like all three versions ;-;

I only know it from DS9... 😅

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

What if you knew the Astrud Gilberto version first? https://piped.video/watch?v=DudoQ_yx0yo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

My parents were never married, nor would I have called their relationship "stable".

But I also feel like it's a solid 50/50 on if my brain's going to go with the original, or the version in Bayonetta, and that seems to match up with being pan.
