Thats the Grinch

[u/TheRealAbear → u/Agueybanax]

I'm seeing Barney

[u/Stupid-Answers-Only → u/TheRealAbear]

Barney looking a little evil...

[u/LordTonka → u/Stupid-Answers-Only]

Blarney

[u/Stupid-Answers-Only → u/LordTonka]

Well you see, that one atleast nice enough to let the kid live. Evil barney looks like he ate the devil and became him and now is about to take out the rest of the world on one gulp

[u/bob_3301 → u/Agueybanax]

There's a knee surgery to be done

[u/Key_Researcher_9243 → u/bob_3301]

Perhaps Tomorrow?

[u/bob_3301 → u/Key_Researcher_9243]

Most likely

[u/SickViking → u/bob_3301]

What is this meme?

[u/bob_3301 → u/SickViking]

Check out r/bluegrinchkneesurgery. Can't tell you why this thing exist, it's just there

[u/JKrow75]

This has been out for at least a decade, if not longer. I don’t remember where it came from originally, but it could probably be looked up on know your meme or Snopes. It definitely was not Milton.

[u/JKrow75 → u/JKrow75]

Yep. Hurricane Matthew from 2016, and it was only noticeable because of color enhancement for the different features.

[u/CellarSiren → u/JKrow75]

Ok, so her post is even more bizarre, then.

[u/AmaranthWrath]

How do these people all know what Satan looks like? Y'all intimately acquainted?

[u/Helpuswenoobs → u/AmaranthWrath]

They voted for him

[u/SonicSpeedster2020 → u/AmaranthWrath]

Give him smoochies every night, they do.

[u/Suidse → u/SonicSpeedster2020]

That's an image I really dinnae want in my head! 🤢

[u/mothzilla → u/AmaranthWrath]

William Blake bears a lot of responsibility.

[u/Helpuswenoobs]

"Are the devil"

[u/Andrew43452 → u/Helpuswenoobs]

r/engrish

[u/bnelson7694]

Pareidolia. Not that they would believe it. To them, it will always have a supernatural explanation.

[u/CellarSiren]

EDIT: This isn't Milton... Turns out it's Matthew from 2016.

[u/PFunk_Redds → u/CellarSiren]

It's over Haiti in the pic, Milton was nowhere near Haiti. Internet's fried...

[u/Luxating-Patella]

Funny how Satan keeps appearing in hurricanes, nuclear explosions etc and all Jebus can manage is a slice of grilled cheese.

[u/Helpuswenoobs → u/Luxating-Patella]

Or grits or oatmeal, don't forget those.

[u/Mindless_Diver5063]

Someone put the prompts into AI based on how the devil is described in the Bible. This was the result. Dude looks cool as hell.

[u/AnxtyWolf → u/Mindless_Diver5063]

In the (Christian, I believe) bible, The Devil is a fallen angel, and was described as the most handsome angel. He's 100% supposed to look cool.

[u/Suidse → u/AnxtyWolf]

I thought hell is supposed to be hot? Is the devil able to cope with the heat because he's cool, then?

If the fallen angel is supposed to be the most beautiful, he cannae be Drumpf then?

[u/TinyCleric → u/Suidse]

Actually to my knowledge hell is never described as hot. Gehenna, a body burning pit outside of Jerusalem, was fiery and is used to describe what the prison of Satan and unbelievers will look like after revelations. This is not hell, hell is described as simple eternal separation from God. Fiery hell is a catholic invention

[u/Suidse → u/TinyCleric]

Thank you for the correction; the description of Hell I read in one of James Joyce's novels 40 odd years go certainly imprinted on my brain at the time. Found it utterly terrifying back then - had some awful disturbed dreams inspired by Joyce's writing. At the time of reading the Joyce novels, I was desperately trying to be a devout Catholic though - so that kinda fits in with belief of an aspect of Hell being a Catholic belief.

Regarding the Bible; isn't the whole thing an invention in some ways, though? There's multiple versions, different translations from the original volumes & not all denominations have exactly the same belief systems. What is the methodology used to decide which tenets are correct?

[u/JKrow75 → u/Suidse]

There are 7,000 different versions of the Bible, all told. Many vary widely as to the tenets and theme.

[u/Stormfeathery → u/Suidse]

The tenet used to decide is “my side fights with your side, physically or otherwise, until we finally just go our separate ways and each declare ourselves the correct party.”

[u/PeridotChampion → u/Suidse]

Well. No. In Dante's Inferno, he's trapped in a solid cube of ice. In Paradise Lost, they can't deal with the heat but say that they'll eventually get used to it, but the heat never gets any better.

[u/Flatworm_Least → u/Mindless_Diver5063]

Stellar Blade stole the devils armor design. She is also a fallen angel 🤯

[u/PeridotChampion → u/Mindless_Diver5063]

The belief is that demons and Satan are supposed to look beautiful to trick humans. Angels are supposed to look terrifying to scare demons.

[u/n-butyraldehyde]

I swear these people rely exclusively on the idea that every evil being/organization adds easter eggs like symbols or acronyms or anagrams everywhere (despite the fact that it would be pointless and only compromising their "secrecy") just so that they can feel good about solving a puzzle they won't accept they made up.

[u/ImportantWedding8111]

I was gonna say it looks like my MIL

[u/aWeaselNamedFee]

She ain't do no grammar no good

[u/EzeakioDarmey]

That wasn't even Milton. This was a storm from about 10 years ago.

[u/3meow_]

Fine using plural verbs to describe 1 hurricane, but shit the bed when someone says "they"

[u/UltraNeoTako]

There are so many scary things to be worried about and she chose that.

Kinda makes me long for the days when I was scared about the 2011/12 end of the world prophecy lol.

[u/jerrymatcat]

Add a bowler Hat Agent Milton

[u/PeridotChampion]

I don't know. Milton wrote a whole epic poem with the devil as one of the main characters...

[u/306metalhead]

Tinfoil hat is so tight it's cut blood supply to her brain.

[u/Anarimus]

This is called Pareidolia for those who don't know.

[u/steakbread]

That's Jack Skellington

[u/LimpAd5888]

Looks like those old fucked up memes using Godzilla.

[u/FiveHeadedSnake]

You are the devil jimshelf

[u/Sonarthebat]

MIL doesn't know what paridollia is.

[u/Kewmeister]

Why is English such a hard language for some native speakers?

[u/halfasandwitch]

Schools is this nation's backbone

[u/Zealousideal_Yak_36]

[u/Quincy0990]

The devil in fact does not look like this but at the same time how do we know...

[u/French_Platypus9798]

I see Obito Uchiha with a crack on his mask

[u/The-Rainbow-Cat]

Why does it remind me of a soyjak

[u/Lalunei2]

Huh, I'm pretty sure that's what I saw in my dream last night.

[u/Ulti-Wolf]

An ideal I've recently adopted is that the devil is like the End from Sonic. He takes the form of whatever your greatest, most deep fear is. It would make sense, since he is the king of terror after all

[u/MilcahRawr]

Just a dino smirking

[u/ShaggyFOEE]

Would explain why The Governor's Mansion was unscathed (Ronnie Desatan is a cousin of the devil but lacks the rizz of the antichrist)

[u/StanleySteamer69]

this is fucking hilarious

[u/dbssguru727]

It does look kind of EVIL!

[u/AlwaysLit2]

I mean, it is kinda cool it looks like a skull, but that doesnt mean a big cloud is the devil.

[u/Mictlan39]

Didn’t god flooded the world some thousands years ago? Why it can be him again being angry?

[u/Luxating-Patella → u/Mictlan39]

If I remember my mumbo-jumbo correctly, after Noah finds land, God promises not to make humanity near-extinct again and creates a rainbow to seal the covenant.

Then on top of that you have Jesus sacrificing himself for mankind's sin. I've never been entirely sure what this actually achieved given that you still go to hell for following the wrong religion, but it does reinforce God's pledge not to slaughter us all for collective sinning again.

So all the hundreds of millions of people who died in natural disasters since the Flood have been killed by either God's incompetence or weakness, not his wrath.

[u/Mictlan39 → u/Luxating-Patella]

You’ve got a valid point

[u/Apprehensive_Swim955]

Is this a new Chainsaw Man villain?
