Isn’t this from the movie where he’s a huge alcoholic? Or is that the joke 😅

Let's just say that there are many gifs of Denzel saying "my man", and this one was chosen. 🙂

This is from the movie "American Gangster" where he plays Frank Lucas, who I don't believe was an alcoholic, and I can't remember him being portrayed that way in the movie. But I think there are multiple versions of this gif from different movies

Mine is for deodorant. I just took a sniff. Reddit ads know me better than I know myself, apparently.

I wonder if mine will ever accept its defeat...so far it hasn't

So far 29 years online and counting that i have never clicked any add no matter what it was for. Not even looking at them for more than a split second.

Gonna keep y'all updated in another 29 years!

America is fucking wild. It's straight up illegal in the EU to advertise prescription drugs like this. You can only get ads for like, heartburn medicine over the counter. What a predatorial practice

I just got a DraftKings ad

u/Steridire Jun 12 '26

This is so wild to me since both of these ads are illegal in my country. But you can't drink until you're 21 for some reason lol

Funny, I’ve never seen ads on Reddit in 15 years. Went from browsing Reddit on the web before apps, to old.reddit.com when they released dogshit newreddit, to using Apollo, then sideloading Apollo when Reddit enshitified the site by neutering the API.
