Answering the call of nature can be deadly
Watching this on the toilet… Currently crapping myself out of fear
Anyone else on the toilet while watching this?
"Jarvis, cut the first 20 seconds of this video, add funny image and post it on r/shitposting"
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27)
And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30)
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. (2 Corinthians 7:10)
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:13)
So, is, "Porcelain God" kind of a fickle nickname?
… yeah i'm not feeling well anymore
I really through the last one is gonna be a new Yorker in a public bathroom saying he planted a bomb
Was wondering if you would mention that Elvis Presley died on the toilet.
Watching this while literally sitting on a toilet.
That sure is a blast from the past
When I was in the Army, the NCO's would tell everyone (starts at 02:30) the story about the hunchback. The story was told in a different version to us. It was hard to assassinate him. Everyone thought it was impossible to do, since he had so many guards around him. There was only one place he didn't have guards and that was his bathroom. An archer snuck into the castle bathroom and waited for the hunchback to use the bathroom. Then he shot a big arrow up the king when he went to the bathroom. The moral of the story for us was, that nothing is impossible.
Oh I do the opposite of getting killed by the toilet. I destroy the toilet itself.
Watching this while sitting on the toilet
I believe that romans used water and didnt wipe, the sponge was more like a plunger or toilet brush.
I heard stories of the old wooden outhouse floors giving away back in old west. Drowning, starvation because you couldn't get out, or gangrene after a terrible injury from the fall.
04:13 Fast forward? So…this happened in the future?
I just watched after dumping
I really like the narrator, he sounds like agent 47 from the third hitman.
Does anyone have a link to the version of greensleves in the video?
You forgot the king of lannisport tywin who was assassinated by his own son tyrion with a crossbow.
