If Bugs Bunny voiced every person in your town.
I thought Yosemite Sam’s schtick was that he was somewhat of an incompetent prospector with a Napoleon complex, but here he’s depicted as a skilled gunslinger?
There’s a lot to unpack here.
As a kid cartoon beer always looked so good! Like extra foamy chocolate milk.
Hold’m beer
ahhhh the good ol days
[Now it’s a GIF of a meme.](https://i.imgflip.com/6o6yhk.gif)
Fully expected this to end with a “take a drink and all the water pours out of the bullet-holes” joke.
What I like about this being the original example is that it adds some clarity to the meaning of the meme. The fact that the original example is someone overestimating their abilities with an exaggerated ego is great
We will never forget your sacrifice, Injun Joe.
Ah yes, the good old days, when kid’s cartoons had alcohol and gun death in them.
Is Engine Joe OK?
Hold my beer was a gag long before it became a meme…it’s why it became a meme.
Is this why he’s on my mudflaps?
To be fair, Injun Joe seemed like he was a well respected and well revered member of that settlement.
I see the algorithm finally hit you, OP. I got recommended this vid a few days ago 😂
I expected him to calmly walk back in, grab the beer back, start drinking it, and it start pouring out of holes that were shot in him lol.
Omg this unlocked a memory for me. We had a VHS tape of Yosemite Sam cartoons and this was on it. Fuck I’m old.
Hold ‘em beer
Yosemite Sam just fucking murked Injun Joe like damn
Let me tell you buddy there’s a faster gun…
Drinking the beer as the punchline is pretty good
Damn he didn’t even get the chance to say anything to Yosemite Sam to challenge him to a duel. Yosemite Sam just saw a native American walk out of a building and started firing instantly.
Jeez that was racist….
Jeeeez
