where the fuck did justin’s “AMELIE” impression even fucking come from. griffin’s just reading a question from someone named Amelie Belcher. Seconds pass, enough for justin’s brain to think around the name and its connection to critically-acclaimed 2001 french movie Amelie. he has seconds to remember the movie before the topic changes. and in the deep rumbling of his brain, scrambling for any details about critically-acclaimed 2001 french movie Amelie , justin tyler mcelroy chooses to let out that little high-pitched voice. that voice that, in NO UNIVERSE, sounds anything remotely like audrey tautou, but he still fucking acts like he does. and sure, he doubles down when griffin confronts him on it, THAT i get. but its that split-second decision to remember critically-acclaimed 2001 french movie Amelie, starring audrey tautou as the titular character Amelie, and the thing that justin “juice” mcelroy decides represents the necessary reference to critically-acclaimed  2001 french movie Amelie is, again, a high-pitched version of audrey tautou saying her own character’s fucking name like a goddamn pokemon. and no one can’t watch critically-acclaimed 2001 french movie Amelie anymore because when she’s leading the blind man down the street and describing the sights (which is a weird scene already), i can no longer hear her saying “we just passed the drum major’s widow, she’s worn his coat since he died”, i hear justin “hoops” mcelroy screaming “AMELIE AMELIE AMELIE” in his ear and i lose my fucking mind. imagine being BAFTA winner Jean-Pierre Jeunet, talking with people about his critically-acclaimed 2001 french movie Amelie, named one of the TOP 100 GREATEST FILMS OF THE 21ST CENTURY, WHICH ISN’T EVEN OVER YET and someone just screams at him “I COOK AN EGG WITH A SPOON” because of a split-second design by an american podcaster named justin “ranked west of loathing as one of his top 5 games of 2017, which isn’t to say west of loathing is a bad game and there’s something to be said for using your position to highlight underrated indie gems but its still a wild pick” mcelroy, who definitely ruined the credibility of Jean-Pierre Jeunet for life
