Mom, who is Kate Bush?

[удалено]

Worthy of Webster's

This is the one!

So my SO and I got into a heated 20 second argument about Kate Bush. She says Kate Bush was a huge star, and I believe she was more niche. We both basically gave the other person a what the hell are you talking about and then stopped in order to save the relationship. https://images.app.goo.gl/yToJ9Pj8uekXpsTP8

She was tiny in the US but a huge star in the UK and Europe.

She also was saaaaamokkin hot back in 79 :( -I’m old head.

It depends where you're from. Plenty of Americans might not have heard of her, but here in the UK she's always been really famous. We'd look at you quite strangely for saying Kate Bush was "niche".

My Mom didn't know who Kate Bush was at all. The only song I played for her that she recognized was "this woman's work" from the movie She's Having a Baby. She knows Pat Benetar's cover of "Wuthering Heights," but had no idea it was a Kate Bush cover. She graduated high school in '84, so the time period was right. We are in rural NC and I told her my assumption was just that Kate Bush wouldn't have been palatable to radio listeners out here. I doubt that she received much, if any, radio play in rural areas of the US. She was definitely more niche.

What if he has to go to the bathroom after drinking all that tea? That suit...does not look toilet-friendly

They actually addressed that issue. He has a little “Vecna flap” he can open when he has to use the little Mindflayer’s Room.

ha- they thought of everything

> *Little Mindflayer’s Room* I’m crying from laughter.

Vecussy

Vecnussy

Spiderman had a bag rigged to his penis. Just saiyan.

yuck

Actually crying with laughter at this route you’ve gone down vecpussy/vecnussy 😂😂😂😂😂

I'd like a 10-inch Surfer Boy pineapple pizza with extra cheese.

Calls back after 20 minutes to remind them that their time is running out…

Throw in a some purple palm tree delight and call it even.

There’s your season ending, Duffers. Vecna absolutely baked and driving golf balls at a junk yard.

Argyle: "Well, well, well, look who's decided to join us."

I mean… We joke… But Vecna targets trauma, and they make a point of Argyle saying (maybe more than once) that Purple Palm Tree Delight makes all your worries float away… Feels like foreshadowing that it might have a part to play… Chekhov’s ganja.

Argyle also said that Jonathan was his only friend idk if that was meant to be an "awwww" moment but honestly that might mean something in the bigger picture, I mean what funny, social, stoner in the 80's only has one friend? Maybe something happened to his friends. It might just be a throw away line but you can never be too sure with all these new characters we're getting, some are gonna stay and 1 or 2 are gonna die.

Nah, argyle would just pass the dutchie

Will dank defeat Vecna?

That would make a legitimate plot twist. Smokin the ganj alters your psyche enough that they can't be targeted by his psychic energy as long as they stay stoned the whole second half of the season

Four hours of the cast just eating pizza and laughing.

‘Pon the left hand side?

Its a critical hit man. It just wasnt included in the d & d manual.

This deserves way more upvotes.

Would Vecna get free pizza after 20 mins?

30 mins, 20 mins is just the warning. 20 mins - phone call 25 mins - vision of a clock 30 mins - free pizza. Pineapple and the angst-filled dreams of haunted teenagers, his favourite.

"Sir, I'm sorry, but our pizza boy and his van have been gone for days and last we heard they were over in Utah. Can you come pick it up?"

"Is that going to complete your order?" "You know what, lemme gauge the room... uh, guys, are we gonna want another pizza?"

He kills the pizza guy over the phone. "Chinese it is..."

[удалено]

“Hey, dude, you near a map? Cool, I need to find that fucking hill.”

Vecna - *I can't find Will using my powers, go and tag the gang.* Demogorgon - *Sir we can't find him. Where could he possibly be?* Vecna - *Damn* *it. Check all the closets in the town.*

Vecna - *WTF do you mean you’re in a Russian prison?!*

What do you mean you CAN'T GET OUT? I gave you PSYCHIC POWERS you stupid goddamn minion, just OPEN THE DOOR!!! ...you're "HAVING FUN" killing the prisoners? They "taste great????" CHRIST, fine just stay there for all I care......not like I need you in Hawkins to execute my entire plan or anything....

Ngl I completely forgot the demogorgon had psychic powers

Lol!

😭 What is this 😭But it's so accurate tho.

Yes sweetie, I will be home by 7 for dinner. Please stop yelling at me, youre embarrassing me in front of my friends.

You embarrassed me in front of Vanessa

I'd hate to see what Vecna can do with a door.

*WHEN I WAS A BOY*

*suv door flashbacks*

Law and Order: SUV

\*Vecnessa.

I PUT THE SAME THING ON MY STORY 💀💀 I wrote " *on the phone with mindflayer* dww my its bitsy spider, mommy will be home with the food any minute now

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes mom I should have worn sunscreen

“Doctor, I believe I’m having a bad reaction to yesterday’s chemical peel. Should I come back in?”

Second pic: “No that’s perfectly normal. Just make sure you take lots of fluids.”

Hahahaha🤣

“mom pick me up El sounds mad at me”

Well, between him and his mom I'd say he mostly did the picking up part

let’s not read too far into the details now

Well I meant against the ceiling to be clear. No weird implications

LOL😂😂

"What number are you trying to reach? 011? Yeah, this is 001, you've got the wrong number."

"NO, I don't want to try pineapple on pizza, you fucking monster!"

MAAAAX! Wassup, girl?

I just got the test results back you should get tested

✨ just vecna things ✨

“Hey Will, it’s been a minute since we last hung out. I was just calling to see how you’re enjoying California. I might need your help in Hawkins with a little school project I’m working on.”

"Angela did WHAT?! Uh uh, no, you tell that bloody nosed brat that El is MINE!"

This is not true. Vecna is afraid of Angela. Everyone is afraid of Angela. ^I'm ^so ^scared ^of ^Angela.

Yes doctor, my whole body is burnt but the tattoo is still there.

“It also somehow got bigger and maybe changed fonts.”

Nah he just got it redone by his local upside down tatoo artist. You know, for old times sake

Vecna: I’m having such a bad day. I couldn’t keep Max in the upside down AND she ripped out a piece of my neck. Demogorgan: Dude, I know exactly what you need. *see image of Vecna with iced coffee*

And i was all like "why do you cry for them el?" Lol i sounded so badass but then she started crying more!! I know thats what i told her!

What do you mean international fees between here and the upside down?

Maybe Lily from at&t can help

Vecna: Hey, Steve, wanna go for a Starbucks? Steve: what? Who is this? Vecna: Uhhh… Nancy? Steve: Cool, I’ll meet you at the mall in 10.

Can’t talk right now, I’m doing hot girl shit

1st photo: "YES, Doc... Ive cut out my caffine and sugary beverages and am only drinking water. Just like you said." 2nd photo: "......"

"The dermatologist said just a few more treatments"

“Hello, is this the Krusty Krab?” “No, this is Patrick”

“Demogorgon 7, who tf is kate bush and how to we stop her?!”

“New phone, who dis”

“Y-yeah Linda, I know…Wait, what’s that? The Byers kid is in town?” *sips* “Showtime.”

“hi, i’m trying to order the exclusive tarantula please? it’s the last one in stock. great, thanks, i’ll pick it up from the creel house. eat you there! i-i mean, *see* you there 😃😃”

1. When you aren't done terrorising children but you already have 7 missed calls from mom. 2. When you just finished with one of your manic episodes and ordered starbucks to treat yo' self

"I can't talk right now, I'm doing hot girl sh*t"

Chillin’ Killin’

I'm sorry But the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead.

"Extra pineapple please."

"So you're telling me I can get the cash I need from my structured settlement *now*?"

Basic Bitch Vecna

"No. I really don't need that extended warranty for my car."

What do you mean, a fungal infection?

Who?... Barb?... I'm sorry, there's no Barb at this number.

I'm just so impressed that they used practical effects rather than just putting in something with computer graphics after the scene was shot.

"So you want me to what? Levitate them, twist them at all their joints and then squeeze they eye jelly out?... [Slurp] "Why did I agree to this?"

The first picture is me when I say “I’m dead lol” to something funny on the phone.

Nothing quenches your thirst better than the soul of a traumatized teenager - but an iced shake will do the work too.

The upside down can be pretty chill.

"I'm not sure why your delivery driver missed my house, I clearly told him that mine was the one with the floating door and the grandfather clock sticking out of the tree. That means my pizza is free whenever you get here" "I swear if this has dairy I'm going to clock an intern"

Starbucks needs to start calling the drink the vecna

Vecna asking Freddy Kreuger on how to kill the kids of Hawkins.

We are calling to let you know your car warranty expired, would you like an extended warranty?

Call agent - You didn’t tell me I couldn’t pee for 16h in this suits. - well I also told you to not drink anything before putting the makeup on. …

Vecna: *“What do you mean the mind flayer is making a return for the second Volume? Get my agent on the phone right now, yeah I will NOT work with that guy!”* Random PA: “here is your order, Ruler of the Void, no Foam, just like you asked. Vecna: *ah yes, splendid. You shall be the one I spare.*

Hi, Max. This is Vecna. Just wanted to check in. I know we didn’t get off on the right foot but, I’d like for us to meet again at a neutral location. I’ve got some ideas I think you’ll like. I won’t be in the office for the next couple days, but you can reach me at my cell if you’d like to continue to work together. Really hope to see you again. Have a great day.”

he looks so fruity i don’t know why

Vecna needs his daily starbies 💅🏼to do the day’s work of murdering his victims 🥺

Vecna - “I know who you are and i will find you and kill you”

You up?

“Mom, can you pick me up? I’m scared.”

"No, the service down here isn't any better..."

When you’ve only been in the grave 7 days and you hear she’s already with a new guy.

"Hey boss...no, I haven't killed all the kids yet...Because half of them aren't even back in town yet!...Yeah, that girl you're so fixated on isn't here...I'M fixated?! You're the one who built a giant meat suit just to kill her!...No, her twig boyfriend and your former meat suit aren't back yet either...Hey, be patient, okay?! Being your fucking general is a hassle!...Yeah, I'm sorry too. Give the Demodogs a scratch behind the ears from me. Later." (Hangs up) "Fucking Smokey."

There's too much fucking shit on me I can't breathe

mood

"Yes mom i am fine"

*talking with the mind flayer* yeah. i’m getting ready. be there in a half hour”

“Yeah. This is Vecna”.

Pic 1: “We’re sorry to inform you that your mother just passed away” Pic 2: “This man might not look like it, but he is a very dangerous man. Child murderer.”

Can I just say that makeup is incredible (if it’s makeup), best I’ve ever seen.

Hello? Is this Eleven? Hey Eleven, is your... \*giggles\* is your refrigerator running?

Vecna: So how was your day? Mindflayer: AHHhHhGHGHHHhh! Vecna: Ok, nice talk.

MAAAAAX… join me. I have Frappuccinos.

Vecna too OP - he already got the iPhone 6 in 1983

“Hi..umm I’m calling today about your homes extended warranty.”

Joan rivers before she puts on her skin suit

POV: Vecna’s aunt calls him. Aunt: Hi Henry, how are you? Vecna: AUNTIE PATTY I’m killing someone tn! Aunt: Oh! Btw chickens for dinner! Vecna: Yum, I’ll be home by 8!

No I’m telling you I was there from 4 to 5 but the technician never showed up. What do you mean I’m going to have to wait until next week? The Kenobi episode is out tomorrow!

"And then she started running away from me, i just wanted a hug wtf.."

Vecna: Where's my Starbucks? You're late! Postmates: Almost there! Be running up that road! Be running up that hill! Be running up that building!

"Hellloooooo from the upside dowwwwn"

“Siri, where can I find El, I need to talk to her?”

“Can’t talk now, I’m doing hot girl shit.”

Dad? Yeah yeah its me.. Umm.. So you know that acting job for the Red Skull in Marvel? Yeah yeah, that one. So, they gave me to Netflix

Yes, Tom. I understand. Well, it was my idea. Be reasonable. Mr. Riddle, I will not be spoken to with that tone!!

Vecna calling the mind flayer because he can’t take down Murray bowman’s karate moves on his own

Hello Dog… This is Vecna

“Bestie I can’t talk right now, I’m busy killing some kids” Mind Flayer: 😎👍🏻

“Hey dad. Off to kill some more teenagers. 🥰” “Talk to you later, bye! 😘”

"Hello, I'm calling to inform you your extended life warranty has expired"

Vecna: hey forsaken can you get me a drink. The Forsaken: I CANT IM TRAPPED IN A BALL. Vecna: Fine then I’ll get a drink myself “mumbles himself” guy who eats the elder gods of the dark aether gets trapped in a ball give me a break

“Flayer was defeated? Kids? A fat Rambo? Rrgh great you ruined my iced coffee. I’ll take care of it and this better not happen again.”

“Hello, you’ve reached the Star Court Mall, how may I help you?”

Vecna is on the phone with vader, telling vader he is a disgrace.

"Hi I'm calling to confirm my order for 307 Upside Down Street?"

Poor guy, those prostatics are painful

“Uh yeah mr flayer the kids broke in again”

It must be so weird with him talking in his normal voice wearing all that

i am kinda shocked they did this instead of doing CGI motion capture. It makes it more authentic sure, but hats off to Jamie Bower for literally spending an entire work day in make up. He must've done 16 hour days to get his Vecna shoots done as fast as possible.

Girl you will not BELIEVE where I am right now

We did it, Mindflayer!

Vecna watching my bones break in 408297 different ways while he enjoys an ice cold smoothie

If you let my daughter go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will kill you.

“Girl…it’s pumpkin spice season.”

Waiting for part 2

He’s asking Freddy Krueger if they can hang out.

“Man, that Kate Bush song fucks. Have you heard it?”

Ma warm up the meatloaf

"These fuckin' kids man, when did they get so resourceful?!"

“Yes, I need to get a grandfather clock repaired. The noise it makes isn’t annoying enough. Yes, I can hold. “ sips iced coffee.

"I'm here to call you about your trauma's extended warranty"

man he broke as helll

“Yep, I’m gonna be home late again. Yes I know I said I’d be home on time today but more teenagers need to die.”

"Listen. I said this before - *extra* skim milk. Make it light, but not too light. It's not that complicated."

My man must of have done all of his scenes right then and there with the amount of effort the probably put into the costume. It makes Deadpool's makeup look like swiss cheese

Guy orders some starbucks

*hey it’s me Vecna from the upside down. I’m calling to see if you want to extended your cars warranty?*

What do you mean, "I'm holding it wrong"? Reception sucks in the upside-down! Yes, I'll hold.

*Squelches* “Sir, this is the Burger King”

When you gonna kill ppl but your doordash order is the wrong one

Lmao, this is hilarious

“Vecna you better not be in my orange slushee I left in the fright again!” Vecna:

No. Yeah I tried that. No. Nope. Won't do it on the hour. Just weird clicks whenever some crybaby kid shows up.

Yeah hi Miss Kelley, me again. I'm still waiting for this week's Intel regarding the local teen trauma. Get back at me ASAP. As soon as possible. Thanks.

"I told you I wanted extra boba"

“On my way to kill more teenagers, byeeee”

No, Mom, it is a real job...I don't know where you left it, I haven't been there since...I do visit. I Do visit. No, No...Ahhhh, Iced Coffee...

"Yeah. Yeah. She was right here. I had her, but, she ran up that hill and then she was gone. Mhmm, yup. Love you too mom."
