Couldn't gaf what Israelis think? Sounds quite antisemitic by your definition.


The room next to me and chez is free, you two want it?


We wouldn't be able to hear what each other were saying over the bump 'n' grind from next door.

What I had in mind more involves a crack pipe, a pair of pliers, and a blow torch, but you have a point about the volume.

No I couldn't gaf what vic or you post, link, or generally blather. So if his link doesn't work I really couldn't gaf.

So, pretty much nobody gives a hoot or a holler about what the other posters are saying.

As Mr. Spock would say, "Fascinating, Captain."

I remember the late, great Rush Limbaugh would refer to reporter Dan Rather as Dan Blather.

He was probably high as a kite on pills though.

Dan Blather was kinda dumb, but I don't think it was because of pills.

A crack pipe? Are you and chez planning to smoke rock together? If so, the blow torch is a bit of overkill and I don't know what the pliers are for.

Not sure if trolling or not a Tarantino fan. Hope it's the former.

The former. I don't think he was referring to a crack pipe in Pulp Fiction. How would you torture someone with a crack pipe?


by Rococo

The former. Tarantino wasn't referring to a crack pipe in Pulp Fiction.

So you say. Reddit disagrees.

I guess it could go either way. Marcellus doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would hand that job off to a couple of crackheads. And he does seem like the kind of guy who would have access to more reliable people for that sort of work.

I had always assumed the implication was that a couple of crackheads would have no compunction about being gratuitously sadistic and would have Zed suffer as much as possible for their own entertainment.

In any case, this is infinitely more interesting than whatever else this thread was about. Maybe our resident movie expert CV can chip in.

I always sort of assumed that they had to smoke a lot of crack to disassociate themselves from the amount of torture that they were going to inflict.

There is no obvious right answer imo, but you certainly could be correct.

Actually at the time I took it literally and assumed it meant lead pipes, as in he was going to call some heavies to work over Zed. I'm probably completely wrong though.

I don't see what else "pipe hitting" could mean to be honest. "Hitting the pipe" predates Pulp Fiction as a term for smoking crack, I'm sure, and if "pipe" refers to a weapon, I could see it being "pipe swinging" but not "pipe hitting". I mean, you wouldn't really say "hammer hitting" or "axe hitting" when describing a deranged maniac, would you?

I always took "hard pipe hitting" as dudes who will prison rape you as Marcellus was raped himself

Man, you guys with your wild interpretations, clearly none of you have ever smoked crack.

Wait, not that I have, I was just guessing. Umm, I fear I've said too much. Look guys, a squirrel!
