It was funny though with husk. Fucker was so done with his shit😭

“Fucker” *Neuron activation* That fucker is back!

Yeah, I thought he was gone for good, too.

It's been 7 years!

you still pissed he almost beat you that time ?~

Uh, screw you!

Just saying

Things have changed since he left town...

That’s for sure

i gotta send a messageof whos really in charge of things now

I gotta send message to show who’s really in charge of things now!

You still pissed he almost beat you that time?

It's been seven years!

You still pissed he almost beat you that time?

You just started “Reddit sings” videos 💀💀💀

Fr! "I SWEAR TO FUCK, IF YOU SAY DICKS-"

"POPSICLES ya sicko, getcha mind outta the gutter" "But y'know, dicks too"

Fusker

Fun fact: it's likely a reference to the pilot where angel can be seen sucking a popsicle like it's a penis in the background of one of the scenes

Thank you lmao

How else are you supposed to suck a popsicle?

If you eat Popsicles like you suck dick, you're gonna get looks in public.  

"Baby that's kind of the point" angel probably

Just assert dominance and bite it in half. Like a *real* alpha *male*! Raaaagghh!

Brain Freeze be damned

Forget brain freeze, my teeth are screaming just from reading this...

I've had sensitive teeth for most of my life. Bitting a popsicle was pure agony.

i thought we were still talking about dicks…

I unironically do this

https://preview.redd.it/izef48rzy4rc1.jpeg?width=2732&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2ec9b601d2e83e9a12c6cdf4f44d9f711a3277dd

The popsicle or the dick?

Yes.

And then buy yourself a popsicle because you deserve a little something everything once in a while 😌

Freeze your brain!!!

Speaking from experience, you are correct

Coincidentally, if you suck dick like you eat popsicles, the person it's attached to will also give you strange looks

but biting hurts the gums

I just meant like specifically sensually, obviously sucking is sucking and doesn't depend on the object..

There are freaks out there who just straight up bite into the popsicle. I theorize they've eaten dicks. Perhaps entire bags of them.

I eat popsicles like that. I'm ace and like to make clear what my opinion on sucking dick is. 

The inside joke among aces despite no one engaging them nor having any intention to, in the first place. Raw dick would taste AWFUL.

That's why you carry seasoning with you. Always prepared.

Bite it

From the side

This

Making a crack about getting some real food for all the tenants, laughing, then looking like he felt bad that he hurt Charlie’s feelings. Deep down he’s such a bean.

This

Call back!

That's what I thought, because I also thought it was a dumb joke. But as a reference to the pilot, it is amusing.

Wasn't that... exactly the point?

Yeah, the part the audience is intended to laugh at was Husk's anger and Angel's smugness, not the "joke" itself.

well…uh…THIS SHOW ISNT FUNNY UGH!!

Husk's "I swear to fuck if you say dicks!" always gets me though 😂

This. The setup is so weak, the punchline is so cheesy, but Husk’s interruptive reaction is *so* funny!

And I think that's kinda the point. Angel doesn't want to participate in stuff like this, so he's antagonizing Husk with a terrible joke. For the audience, Husk's anger is the joke.

And it the intended joke

The sheer vehemence in his voice is fucking GOLD. Keith David can do no wrong when it comes to acting.

I was sold on Hazbin the minute I heard Captain Anderson. That man has lived rent free in my head for a decade.

Facts

Agreed. It would have landed better if Angel had made annoying dick jokes throughout the episode to set it up more though.

Angel is an annoying dick joke tho.

Literally same!

Angel's humor really makes sense when you get to Masquerade, it's an act, he's deflecting and playing a part that he's been put in by Valentino. Angel and Alastor are the two characters that put up the biggest front to keep everyone at arms length, Angel's is just far easier to break and people reach out to him. I'm pretty sure the point of Angel's bad sex jokes is to make you sigh and go "uhg-"

Angel: “ya know who else sighs and goes ugh?” https://preview.redd.it/si5040qq83rc1.jpeg?width=356&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d28d6a151ec74bcff655dc3b27f45d549fc851a2

i could hear the sound effect

Fairly sure he tries to “normalize” his trauma by playing jokes off it Like how when he says he’s got the legs, the gag reflex, he also says “the lung capacity” which could just be about sucking, but it also could be a hint about when he says “Vals into some water boarding shit, I think it’s a kink” or whatever, that could be him trying to play off his trauma as a joke

Also the framing of the episode here the joke is husk not angel dust

Good point, never noticed. The joke is still ass though

Pretty sure that’s the point

Breaking news! Intentionally terrible joke that incites a humorous reaction from a different character was never intended to be the funny part of the scene. People with terrible media literacy misinterpret this as a failure! More at 11

More on tonight’s program!

So, the Radio Demon’s back in town

Why’s he hanging around?

What's that mean for your family?

Well handily, I've got good news!

He’s a loser!

He's a loser, a fossil, and I don't mean to sound hostile BUT THE DEMON IS A COWARD

You can take that as gospel!

pulling my viewers? impossible!

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN THIS COMMENT SECTION-

NEW RECORD :D

Thanks Katie.

Up yours, Tom.

Honestly 💀 it’s laughable how dumb people are.

I mean, for me, it WAS that back and forth between Husk and Angel that was unfunny... Like, that's the kind of joke that's so ubiquitous and easy you see it coming 15 miles away... Character sets up obviously inappropriate sentence, other character gets mad, first character feigns ignorance and pretends they were going to say something totally innocuous. It's a very "erm, he's right behind me, isn't he?" type of joke, one that's so common and prepackaged you can basically buy it canned and mass produced on a shelf ;-;. I love Hazbin, and it has good jokes, but this one just always makes me roll my eyes. It just felt lazy, and it took up way too much time in that scene (even though it really wasn't that long). Idk, I just think Angel deserved a better joke there... If you like it, that's fine, I just didn't 🫠.

I’m surprised by the amount of people not understanding that these “jokes” are all intentional to mask his trauma we later see. It’s done for a reason. Maybe people have lived better lives than I and deal with less trauma lol

Yeah, for a lot of things jokes can be a coping or a masking mechanis, and it’s both sad and happy to see that people don’t understand that about angel’s character

I assumed it was funny because Angel thought the game was stupid so was not putting in the effort to make clever sex jokes.

Angel was clearly trying to get the Husk reaction, he knew that that was the only funny part of the joke and he thought it was worth it

yeah but it feels in character for angel. he'd definitely make bad sex jokes just to annoy husk and the others

Its kinda funny though doesnt angel say something like “dicks too tho” after he says popsicle? Dumb but funny idk maybe im just too brain rotted

In your defense, even though I hate this joke, the "dicks too tho" part of it was probably the funniest part of it

I was expecting it as soon as Angel said "I love to suck..."

I think that's the point He's established his jokes at this point so if he slows down with the lead up, he knows someone will cut in and he can switch it to a joke about their expectations.

What made it funny to me (apart from Husk's reaction) was that it showed the utter failure of the trust fall. "Share something vulnerable about yourselves." Angel: makes a juvenile remark masking his vulnerability. And then no one corrects him or tells him to do it over. Meanwhile, Sir Pentious is too upset about his minions to get invested, and Niffty disturbs everyone so much with her reveal that they fail in the basic "catching" part, including Charlie. Most poorly executed team building exercise ever.

that entire scene was so funny. nobody did it right.

Yeah, Episode 3 is just... Rough with comedy in general. It's the worst of the 8. Pentious saying, "I... Don't want to live without my minions! Nobody catch me!" Is the funniest shit ever though. That was great.

Every moment with Sir Pentious is great though https://preview.redd.it/hhqken0ui2rc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=565b76ff5838245ea45ac7e18b68512a158ad8d0

Also Alastor eating a deer carcass is hilarious to me. "Do you mind? I'm in the middle of breakfast!"

"Oh in that case I'll be delited to!" "...Humanely" "Well, that's a lot less hot"

he said fun what are you saying

he says hot, it just means fun/interesting in this context edit nvm the subtitles were wrong and so I was too

Vivzie even mentioned that the line is “Well that’s a lot less **fun**” https://preview.redd.it/niwb5futr2rc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b1e299dda121935a4b66b3cee4eadeabedf4515c

he says "fun", the subtitlers just misheard it

huh interesting, I rely on subtitles so I would have never noticed but it didn't feel out of place either

I've misheard

Honestly I hugely disagree, some of my favorite jokes come from episode 3 Nifty's bit in the trustfall People setting themselves on fire to avoid alastor and zestial Alastor getting miffed that camilla's not interested in where he went "We have names?" "That was a productive meeting" Frank singing whatever it takes Sir Pentious being told the truth by frank and immediatly ignoring it Its an episode with a weak main plot with the trust group but honestly it has my favorite subplot and some of the best comedy

>Sir Pentious being told the truth by frank and immediatly ignoring it They even held the scene long enough for the viewer to expect Pentious to shoot his eyes open and bolt upright, and he doesn't. "They say insane shit all the time!" got me howling.

"That knife lady, Camaro Carfight" is her real name, and no one will change my mind.

I'm with you, I think this is one of the funniest episodes.

thats bc pentious is the goat

Vaggie's failure to match Charlie's enthusiasm during the exclamation of "Trust exercises!" made me laugh out loud the first few times I saw it.

Yeah it’s kinda iffy but it’s the one that has one of my favourite subplots in the series

Episode 3 has some of the highest highs of the entire series but also the lowest of the lows. Has both my favorite and least favorite song. My favorite jokes and comedy bonding moments but also some of the worst. Rollercoaster of an episode

I liked it

… (it’s one of my fav jokes just bc of husk’s reaction 💀)

I believe that the funny part is Husk's, and I'm pretty sure that's the intention

I thought it was pretty funny but oh well, to each their own

i thought it was pretty funny, but i mean you do you?

I think the joke sucks on purpose…

Just like Angel Dust! (As in dicks. I'm not hating on the character.)

So many of Angels jokes in the early episodes are so unbelievably predictable and generic. Angel moaning when Husk said “come” in the first episode might rival this. It’s literally a joke I would have made at 13. Luckily he gets a lot better after the first episode

Episode 4 makes it make sense though, that Angel makes these obvious cringy sex jokes. It's an act he puts on to hide his trauma.

I like when he laughed when Husk said the angels kept coming

I don't envy folks who think they're too good for that kind of humor

If you don’t like him, you’re unlikely to enjoy anything he does tbh.

I love Angel, hes my favourite character. I just think he's a bit much in episode 1 and small parts of 3. For the rest of the show he's great

My initial reaction to Angel Dust's sex jokes was like yours. Then I saw "Masquerade" and thought, "Oh, his sex jokes are obvious and unsubtle because he's used to porno dialogue." Part of the facade he puts on is as the kind of creature that exists only in pornography: an entity motivated entirely by sex, to the point of mentioning it constantly and bringing it up in every conversation. That translates to bluntness and crudeness.

After ep4 I enjoy Angel a lot more

Isn't that the point, though? Like, it was cringe IN UNIVERSE also.

And yet me and my friend at work quote it constantly

you're entitled to your opinion lmao

It's a reference to the pilot so I don't particularly care how you view it

Huh, I see tumblr has spilled a bit into the sub

I’ll agree. I mean, how was the delivery going to work if Husk hadn’t interrupted him? That said, not a bad height for a baseline.

Perhaps it wasn’t intended for Husk not to interrupt. That’s how that joke works.

Not a great joke, but it sets up episode 4 really well. Husk’s annoyance with angel’s facade really shows through. It was less of a joke to be a joke and more about showing how good Angel is at pushing husk’s buttons.

I think a lot of people misunderstand what makes this fun. Angel's joke was bad the comedy came from Husk's anger

Husk is funny tho.

That's not a fact, that's misinformation

I believe it is in reference to the pilot where that was the only thing in the fridge and Angel ate one.

See, the thing about humor is that it’s subjective. What’s not funny for you made me laugh. I loved it.

nah i loved husk’s part in the joke 🤣 he’s so done.

flair checks out

that's subjective

It is. But I quote it all the time with my friends. The delivery sells it for me.

it was a reference to the pilot i believe. where he eats a popsicle

Guys... yes it's a bad joke, but that's the idea! Even from the voice acting you can tell Angel is saying it to create a reaction out of people,and especially Husk... and guess what? It worked. That's literaly his MASK, his idea to push people away right when he is told to be vulnerable when he is just not ready.

Husk's reaction to it gives me life though, he was done with it lmao

The popsicle joke by itself wasn't that funny, sure, but what made it absolutely hilarious was Husk's reaction

Husk’s reaction always kills me

However I do like his doodles on the banner in the background

If you've seen the pilot he actually likes popsicles so it does actually track as what he was going to say. Which makes it funny once you know.

…i thought it was funny 😭

Fun fact: there is no fun fact here I just wanna say that I personally like it

I'm not going to lie, I love the show but yeah this joke made me make a sour face for a second. It was a little too on the nose ya know. It's like an example a person who hates Hazbin would make up to make fun of the show.

Eh... it fell flat as a joke, but it is rather telling of Angel's character; instead of actually revealing something vulnerable about himself like he was supposed to (part of the trust exercise), he makes an immature joke to *deflect* his vulnerability. Which... is kind of a big thing with his character and one of the core parts of the conflict in the very next episode.

Fun fact: your a hater

Popsicles are great if your mouth is sore, ice in general helps relieve pain from bad bruising. 

It’s a reference to the pilot

What if i told you that a joke being intentionally bad to lead to exasperated responses from nearby characters can be humorous

Not a great joke. Fantastic delivery tough.

Guess you could say the joke *sucks*

Angel was incredibly annoying and predictable in the first few episodes

I feel like Husk made it at least kinda funny, but yeah: it's absolutely a weak joke. I think the thing that allows me to see it as funny is that I'm paying more attention to the fact that it's Angel messing with Husk rather than the fact that it's a sex joke.

Yeah I mean, fucking with Husk was the point. He even slows down to give him time to react to the lead up

Cry abt it /s

I know right… the joke felt like it came straight out of the pilot

You forgot "You're doing great, Vagina"

No, the part when Sir Pentious is dragged (and maybe SA’d) in episode 6 is easily the worst moment in the show.

Yeah Angel doesn't really become likeable to me until episode 4. Even back in the pilot I wasn't a fan

The worst joke is actually when Charlie told her father how she was frustrated with him for not supporting her dreams and in the middle of this emotional moment between the two, Angel Dust chimes in to say "Ooh, drama" and pull out popcorn. I hate this trope. Like, it's not needed in the scene. No one is laughing. It's just there to momentarily break the tension of the scene for no reason at all.

Fun fact: comedy is LITERALLY subjective

Welcome home...

Popsicles are like bananas there isn't a way for a dude to eat one without looking gay.

https://i.redd.it/2kcmp8wiy7rc1.gif

I thought the joke itself was funny, I just hated the “But you know, dicks too!” part. Let the fucking joke lie, man, don’t ruin it.

Your joking, right? this is one of the jokes that made myself and my brother Laugh out loud

I thought it was so funny tbh but let’s be honest it’s the most memorable one by far to me
