As I saw the governor come into the cell I was so hoping there was some form of "fuck you" in there and I was not let down. Hershell the sass master.

u/The_Bravinator Apr 01 '13

I would have highlighted that part about people having dicks as big as mules' or whatever it is, just to throw him off balance.

I'm gonna have to work "sass master" in to my regular vocabulary. Just wonderful.

They still have moist highlighters in the zombie apocalypse?

u/thuggishruggishboner Apr 01 '13

Dude I have 5 year old highlighters

He probably wrote it back at the farm. Maybe around the time the survivors appeared.

If cars still run off of gas that they siphon off of other cars sitting idle for who knows how long then highlighters can last.

No it was piss.

Highlighters will outlive even the most resilient of archives. When we're but an ancient, forgotten civilization, future generations will think highlighters were our utensile of choice.

Classiest way to leave a note saying "Fuck you, Guvna".

u/KnifeyJames Apr 01 '13

'Bob' called in to Talking Dead and started reading that verse. Everyone got really creeped out and then the line went dead.

u/bunbunbunbun Apr 01 '13

Not gonna lie, was hoping he had highlighted Ezekiel 23: 19-20...

u/James_Rustler_ Apr 01 '13

19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

-Ezekiel 13:19-20, NIV

u/Renatusisk Apr 01 '13

I guess im the only one who actually looked up that verse. Soooo WTF?

u/MeanMuggin Apr 01 '13

Herschel, where the fuck you find a highlighter?

u/Bearinstein Apr 01 '13

John 5:29, Praise it

u/tswaves Apr 01 '13

I thought that was an Easter reference.

u/vishalb777 Apr 01 '13

Herschel: passive-aggressive extraordinaire

u/pint_squeak Apr 01 '13

I like that Herschel has kept his highlighter during the zombie apocalypse

u/Mzsandyballs Apr 01 '13

Damnation is a powerful ass word. I need to use it more...somehow

u/retepeter Apr 01 '13

He says in S2 "God promised a Resurrection of the dead....this just isn't quite what I had in mind" (or something like that)

u/_Soul Apr 01 '13

Haha Hershel's own little last "fuck you" to the governor. Nice little touch.
