Reminds me of this scene from Patriot: https://youtu.be/v4RmvPcaYw0
I looooove that show! It's the best show nobody's watched. One of the greatest shows I've ever seen
Yes! It’s the greatest show I can’t talk anyone into watching. It and The Leftovers.
I couldn't get into the leftovers, I did try
Or quicksand for that matter, I was really expecting that to be a much bigger problem. Especially after reading all those Tintin comics.
I went up to my knee in quicksand last week.
Looked solid, nope.
(In the shaded part, under a bridge, on a supposed dry river bed.)
Exciting and a little scary.
Yikes

Charlie Sheen has not been so lucky

Somebody really enjoyed the success of the quicksand tweet and was hoping for an encore
Tweet? That was a John Mulaney joke from like 10 years ago.
And was probably said by various people before that too, whatever. The point is this is an obvious derivative.
And when the the time comes you will be ready.
Same reason I play dystopia games.
