And after he recieved the Ten Commandments, he tore off his shirt, pointed to the crowd and told the non believers that they would have his wrath at WrestleMania IV

Yeah, I was not familiar with the “brother” speech pattern and by the time I figured it out I had 20 upvotes so I was like, fuck it. I’m leaving it up.

Hulk Hogan is a racist piece of shit (and a union buster) and does not deserve to be immortalized in meme form

Three years later, he had this to say...

“With this foundation, I can be accountable. I can learn from my mistakes and I can move forward,” Hogan said. “And what’s so cool now is working with the Boys Club, I have a chance to help these kids not make the mistake I made, being at the wrong place at the wrong time or saying the wrong words.”

No words on equality, changing his attitudes, nope just regrets being caught. Jfc. Prick.

i dont think a meme is going to be the make/break with one of the most famous perosnas in all of modern media history dude. youre better off prostesting his torn yellow shirt being in a glass case at your local hard rock cafe

[–] PrinceWith999Enemies@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (6 children)

one of the most famous personas in all of modern media history

You might need to expand your horizons. On the historical scale he ranks just above Dog the Bounty Hunter and below Tiger King.

snopes doesn't know what Moses looked like

for all we know the ark of the covenant could have had turnbuckles.

snopes doesn’t know what Moses looked like

He actually looked like Brutus the Barber Beefcake.

[–] MasterNerd@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

Dang why couldn't you have posted this a minute earlier before I started writing my comment lol?

[–] GeneralEmergency@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

An actual "or maybe not brother" in the wild.

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Could also be Trevor from GTA V... or maybe just the way he looked after I got him out of the barber shop

You mean to suggest someone would lie on the internet? How preposterous!

[–] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

hmm let's take a look at the first reply on that comment

[–] halvar@lemm.ee 15 points 2 years ago

Trevor on his way to get the jews out of egypt between two bank heists.

[–] FlashZordon@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

God: Here are the 10 Commandments

Moses Hogan: That doesn't work for me brother.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

Fitting, since he was speaking to his brother.

[–] itsgroundhogdayagain@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago

then again, he might not

[–] reverendsteveii@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago

Hey Fry-man, check this out!

parts the red sea

[–] DavidGarcia@feddit.nl 6 points 2 years ago (8 children)

We have zero evidence what he looked like. The region was extremely ethnicly diverse. He could have looked like anything really, from pasty blond/red haired white guy to dark skinned. Most likely just similar to your average people in the region today.

[–] LetterboxPancake@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 years ago

So what you're saying is that there is a possibility he looked like Hulk Hogan?
