Let's make Ferris cry

[popcorn]

We all know that Ferris is famous for his "tough guy" image.

Well that's all it is — an image.

A facade!!

In this thread we will break him down. We will bully, we will harangue, we will mock and jeer.

It will not be easy. At first he will shrug off our jibes. He might even try to pretend he is "in on the joke" and "game for a bit of friendly banter".

But we will not give up.

We will do what it takes until Ferris finally snaps and the tears are flowing.

Ha ha ha!

WEEP YOU JEB

[Glebe]

Your basing-ball team has lost!

[popcorn]

Well we've had some good efforts so far. Ferris how are you feeling?

I suspect he's at the water-off-a-duck's-back stage so far

I suppose you're thinking of Count Duckula? Why are you obsessed with Count Duckula?

Because it is the season of water slides, and what could ever make a better water slide in this world than a Duckula's hydrophobic cape material.

You'll be singing the Duck Tales theme next!

If Scrooge McDuck had a cape, yeah.  I'm not going to waste time and resources breathing a theme tune out that cannot be associated with a water slide.

[popcorn]

Is any of this likely to upset Ferris? like does he have a weak point about Count Duckula and etc

[Glebe]

It's a shot in the dark but he might possibly find the Duck Tales theme upsetting. Woo-ooh!

[popcorn]

All right, tbh I'm skeptical that this could get to him, there is imo a risk this could actually cheer him up a bit. but I'm open-minded.

[Glebe]

If that doesn't work we can always give Sylvanian Families a shot.

[touchingcloth]

Is Ferris going round with a duck's back again?

[Replies From View]

At school the girls would cry when we'd sing "my little pony, bendy and bony".

[Elderly Sumo Prophecy]

Ferris, you are fucking rubbish son. State of you.

[Ferris]

Strangely enough, the theme to Duck Tales is one of my favourite bits of music.

(That's even slightly true.)

[popcorn]

OK I've got a way to turn this around:

People who like the Duck Tales theme are absolute idiots

That ought to put a dent in him.

[Ferris]

While I disagree with your assessment, I respect your right to hold that opinion.

[shiftwork2]

Ferris your home brew is yeasty

[Glebe]

Perhaps the Sooty theme will move Ferris to tears? I've said if before it's an absolute fucking banger:

[popcorn]

Well the initial idea was to get Ferris to cry with misery and loathing, but I suppose moving him to tears would be an acceptable outcome, it's a bit of a hack though.

[Glebe]

Cry Ferris cry
Me frenulum's quite dry
You're old enough to play baseball
So cry Ferris cry

[Ferris]

Ferris your home brew is yeasty

Of course it is, all beer has yeast in it.

[shiftwork2]

It has a yeast infection then

[Ferris]

No that isn't possible after ~48 hours of active fermentation.

[kalowski]

I've broke your based ball stick.

[popcorn]

No that isn't possible after ~48 hours of active fermentation.

Exactly ... just imagine how shit you must be at making beer for it to taste so yeasty.

[Ferris]

But I typically get a vigorous primary fermentation within 2 or 3 hours which is actually very good.

Sorry, I haven't read the thread title yet but what are we discussing in here? Not sure I'm grasping it.
