Leon was a bad man that did a good thing, don’t confuse the two.
Were we talking about psychopaths, or bad ppl?
The Dude buy it just for the White Russian.
Pretty sure in 2025 he would use soy-milk 😁
vodka and milk is not a valid recipe for a white russian. idk what the hell the dude thinks he’s drinking but it’s definitely not that.
The Dude is both chill, and poor. Not everyone has coffee liqueur and creamer money. He makes do with what’s around and he’s happy about it.
Coffee liqueur is super easy to make. Cheap vodka, super strong coffee and a vanilla bean. Let it sit for a month. You can add glycerin if you want to increase the viscosity, but not needed for white russians.
Obviously not something the Dude would do, but I might try this.
He uses half & half throughout most of the movie.
is that not milk?
I’ve never seen someone drink half & half the way people drink milk. Like just a straight glass of half & half.
It is used almost exclusively as a substitute for heavy cream in recipes, so my mind considers it cream.
but is it milk or cream? is it like 5%?
50/50. Half cream, half whole milk… But the few times I’ve tasted it on its own, it is much closer to cream imo
That’s cause you’re young.
When you get to the 50s you can’t use cream, bur you doesn’t stop to like white russian
i think the kahlua is probably the most important thing there… otherwise it just tastes like milk.
And he uses both in the scenes where we see him making the drink.
how am i just noticing that it’s the only thing on his bar
I don’t remeber what a White Russian should be made of from my bartender years, but if it was cream, well I stay with the Dude.
At one point you’ve to prioritize your calories.
Kahlua - necessary Vodka - necessary Cream??? > Milk
yeh but he skips the liqueur too
indeed he doesn’t. either there’s sobe other scene i’m thinking of or i’m misremembering
He’s drinking half and half
When you start drinking in the morning you can’t go all-in
Little of this, little of that
That scene and that cute penguin that doesn’t want to be eaten scene felt like some sort of vegan subliminal messaging
‘I can quit blue milk any time I like’ - Stormtrooper Lewis.
Anyone else ever listen to the Stormtrooper Bob audio plays?
You never say no to bacta
They’re re-uploading them! I think I might have the missing episodes somewhere on a hard drive… https://youtube.com/@jeditalk
So, you’re telling me heroes drink milk? Ok, I’m onboard.
only one of these could be called a hero.
leon is at BEST a very dark shade of morally gray as a former child soldier who was raised to be a hitman by the mob.
and the dude is just the dude. he just wanted his damn rug back.
The Dude Abides.
Leon is a hitman, but he’s also probably learning disabled. He rescued a girl from the mob.
The Dude is just a guy who likes bowling, but he’s pretty cool and that’s enough for me.
His relatability makes him the most heroic of them all in my book.
The opening narration confirms that the Dude is in fact, not a hero (emphasis mine):
[…] I only mention it because sometimes there’s a man… I won’t say a hero, 'cause, what’s a hero? But sometimes, there’s a man. And I’m talkin’ about the Dude here. Sometimes, there’s a man, well, he’s the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that’s the Dude, in Los Angeles. And even if he’s a lazy man - and the Dude was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in Los Angeles County, which would place him high in the runnin’ for laziest worldwide. But sometimes there’s a man, sometimes, there’s a man. Aw. I lost my train of thought here. But… aw, hell. I’ve done introduced him enough.
The unhinged child soldier rearing knife assassin definitely fucking qualifies.
The lightsaber is not a “knife”.
It cuts and toasts!
Leon The Professional drank milk and he was good from what I recall, minus the whole being a hired killer…
minus the whole being a hired killer
Tiny little detail
“No women, no kids” is good enough for me.
Not to forget, he managed to get a little girl off the reigns of Big Tobacco
/s
of course he didn’t. she’d probably get right back on after a few years
So, I was an evil psychopath since I was young. Thanks. I’m proud of myself.
Moloko Plus is much more than milk.
counterpoint: santa claus
Counter-counterpoint, Mengele.
I drink milk, can confirm, am evil.
Proof! Science has spoken
Ok I recognise the last two movies… but what are the first two? 🤔🤔
Top right is Inglorious Basterds. Not sure about top left.
Top left is Get Out. Pretty decent thriller
There’s this FBI dude in Poker Face who also drinks milk a lot and at some point he just chugs a cup of half and half at a coffee machine.
What if someone is drinking chocolate milk? Where are they on the evil scale?
Choccy milk is what the good guys drink!
Do I get to be depraved and evil if I drink plant milk? I haven’t had a glass lately, but that actually sounds refreshing.
…only if it comes from plant boobs…
(I think you’re stuck being a good person)No
Are you a baby cow? Then it’s fucking weird to drink the mammary excretions of a cow.
no, it’s not. it’s very common.
Milk bad Cheese good
/s
This but unironically
Drinking cow milk is gross! You even need pasteurize it to get rid of the tony organisms!
But what if we add tiny organisms, again , see not gross anymore
spoiler
BTW I love milk and cheese
Yeah everybody hates Tony.
You live a joyless existence if you avoid milk and cookies.
Bruh why are you dragging cookies into this, you don’t need milk to enjoy cookies.
“You don’t need chocolate with your peanut butter. Or peanut butter with your jelly. Just have a jelly sandwich.” That’s what you sound like.
Do that many people really never eat a cookie without milk? I eat milkless cookies all the time.
Milk is for babies and calves. I don’t see other adult animals sucking titty milk
Idk I see a lot of grown men and women sucking on titties.
Be honest, do you look for such activity?
Might have to now
I don’t see orher adult animals sitting in front of a screen and paying taxes either
Touché
The appeal to nature fallacy is fun, but once people realize it is one (only for things they don’t want to hear of course), let’s add something not based on a fallacy:
But of course, spreading tobacco smoke and reducing the IQ and creativity of the whole human population, which in turn causes them to be unable to find a proper replacement for the things that you are against, while also increasing the rate of ageing of everyone, is pretty cool.
:(
There are a LOT of non-dairy based milk options. Not having dairy doesn’t mean not having milks!
Personally I like oat milk the best. But I tend to try different kinds on whim and when I see them.
My kids ranked me as neutral good; you can tear my cafe con leche from my cold dead hands, but never drank milk on it’s own. It’s a fantastic ingredient though.
cafe con leche fromT my cold dead hands
Another fan of iced coffee too, eh? Pro tip: no need to die if your hands are already cold!
