If you know the Sinatra version, it wouldn't occur to you to ask which version they're referring to.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago

If you know the Sinatra version you might also know it was done by tons of other people, like Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Mel Tormé, etc. Sinatra wasn't even the original.

Depressed gay people can come from a stable household

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Bayonk Evangenatra would be the applicable answer here.

No, you must select ONE of the playable classes.

And they can have a vast spectrum of musical tastes. But they will all know "Fly me to the moon."

Ehh my parents are divorced, which I guess has been pretty stable for the last couple decades.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Divorce is always good news.

"Stable marriage"

You vastly over credit us Sinatra fans

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've played Fallout, that enough?

Ouch. Not wrong but ouch

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

If I know all three versions, I'll explode?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, it means your parents had a stable marriage but you are gay and depressed.

Fake. My parents didn't have a stable marriage

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

ehm I am gay and my parents were divorced. But I only know the Sinatra version. I don't even know the other two bands

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Bayonetta is a video game, and evangelion is a manga-turned-anime. I was completely unaware that either one had songs called "fly me to the moon" though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

For Evangelion it was the closing Theme for the anime episodes. As it is such an iconic feature, it was reused (and reimagined) within the movies (the new ones)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Evangelion was an anime first. Each episode ended with one of the voice actors singing Frank Sinatra's "Fly Me To The Moon." Some of them... definitely do not speak English.

Fellas is it gay to like a really fun and challenging action game that stars a super hot and badass woman protagonist

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Obviously it's gay to like women, since women like men so you indirectly like men /s

If you have seen Eva but you don't remember this song, you should cancel your Netflix account and find which of your friends runs a Plex server.

[–] RandomLegend 7 points 1 year ago

Hey hey.....or jellyfin

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago

Counterexample: I only know the Sinatra one (I'm so uncultured) but my parents split 32 years ago (aw hell; that long ago?) . They're now both split from their seconds.

Divorces are hell; and in some areas like ours, the one party can end up on disability from the heart attack brought on by the stress and paying 105% of that disability benefit to the spouse.

Have instructed the wife to just murder me in my sleep.

If they say "by 王OK", they have it on repeat.

Fly me to the moon 王OK

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Didn't know what to expect, but this artist is amazing.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

From the Halo 1 warthog grenade jump compilation?

What about, "isn't that a song by Savage Garden?"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

🎶Fly me to the moon and back if you'll be, if you'll my baby who plays among the stars🎵

Why does Bayonetta make you gay? Is the Twitter OP assuming you would be asking a woman?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And if they say, "I don't know, I haven't heard it", then what?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

They're straight, manic, and their parents never met each other

[–] Leate_Wonceslace 6 points 1 year ago

Accurate; I'm depressed.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Ok but this is exactly the order those are sorted and accessed in my mind.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What if I learnt it in my moon jujitsu class?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Then you probably kick ass

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And if I don't know the song at all?

What if I say Squid Game?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Knowing it from Evangelion probably means you are gay, depressed, and have divorced parents.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And the divorce is your fault

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Your mother and I would still be together Shinji, if you'd just piloted the Eva.

What if you knew the Astrud Gilberto version first? https://piped.video/watch?v=DudoQ_yx0yo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Well, guess I'm depressed

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I mean someone can ask this three question at once, meaning they're gay, depressed, and parent have stable marriage.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

My parents were never married, nor would I have called their relationship "stable".

But I also feel like it's a solid 50/50 on if my brain's going to go with the original, or the version in Bayonetta, and that seems to match up with being pan.
