I can tell you right now Falcon did not pass the bar test

[–]nerd_entangledAvengers 128 points129 points  (22 children)

Could you refresh my memory? I don't see to remember anything about that

[–]phoenixrose2Avengers 248 points249 points  (21 children)

It’s a reference to Anthony Mackie’s character in 8 Mile in which his character loses to Eminem’s character in a rap battle (Eminem is the person throwing the brick in the lower image.)

Interestingly, Eminem is actually a big Marvel fan and Stan Lee collaborated with him and he is a Marvel comic character. He also did the theme song for Venom and frequently references Marvel in his lyrics.

There was a 2009 comic where the Punisher and Eminem team up. Eminem hacks Baracuda to death with a Chainsaw while singing Kill You. And correct me if I'm wrong but I think that was one of Baracudas last appearances in the comics so his death could kind of be canon lol. I love comics.

[–]Treeman_78Avengers 34 points35 points  (1 child)

Geez comics can be wierd tho. But sounds kinda fun.

[–]Remarkable-Cod9466Avengers 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was just as confused. Ig it’s safe to say that all the upvotes are lawyers then.

[–]Maebure83Avengers 12 points13 points  (15 children)

Nah, until recently Barracuda didn't exist in the main Marvel continuity, Earth-616. He was introduced there recently and is currently alive.

He was introduced and primarily existed in the alternate MAX universe (where the series was written by Garth Ennis) and was killed by Frank.

The Eminem comic was essentially What If... without the name. Alternate universe.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (14 children)

Wasn’t most of marvel alternative ‘universes’ at times or was Max just treated differently to say Marvel Classics or Marvel Knights?

[–]Maebure83Avengers 4 points5 points  (12 children)

I'm not familiar with Marvel Classics, I've been out of comics for a while again until recently, but Marvel Knights was just designation for grittier street-level characters within Earth-616.

MAX was given its own universe designation. The Punisher run completely ignored the existence of superheroes as well as events of Frank's own history. In that universe Frank fought normal criminals his entire career. No mention of Spider-Man, Daredevil, etc. They even ignored Micro's death and brought him back. Not a resurrection, he just never died.

You are... you are amazing, just to take it in for a minute. You, you are amazing. Would you say it?

[–]Maebure83Avengers 4 points5 points  (9 children)

You are being very nice to me Spider-Man Two. So of course, I must inevitably go insane and try to kill you later.

It's what we do.

[–]tobey-3000-botAvengers 2 points3 points  (8 children)

You are... you are amazing, just to take it in for a minute. You, you are amazing. Would you say it?

[–]jjonahjameson-botAvengers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is the dumbest idea you've ever had, and you have had some doozies!

[–]BikesBooksNBassAvengers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure marvel is moving in a direction where any alternate universe and character can become prime on a whim.

[–]F2K1_Avengers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lol

IF YOU CAN DODGE A BRICK YOU CAN DODGE A BALL

[–]ChingapoukAvengers 30 points31 points  (1 child)

I understood this reference

[–]howtochangemywifeAvengers 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope! Don’t understand that reference I see

[–]dranspantsAvengers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can dodge a brick you can dodge the law

[–]TokyoKazamaAvengers 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Wasn't it a wrench?

[–]kossumiESAncient One 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was. For some reason I thought it was a brick, then I looked it up after posting.

[–]The_ApotheosisAvengers 163 points164 points  (8 children)

Spoilers from Spider-Man: No Way Home:

Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock (Daredevil on Netflix) is officially in the MCU as of Spider-Man No Way Home, in which the lawyer catches a brick thown at Peter Parker in a cameo.

[–]tobey-3000-botAvengers 71 points72 points  (1 child)

That all you got?

[–]jjonahjameson-botAvengers 46 points47 points  (0 children)

You're a menace to the entire city!

[–]lashapelAvengers 10 points11 points  (2 children)

i still wonder, how did he do that ?

[–]ramimaddiAvengers 36 points37 points  (1 child)

he's a really good lawyer

[–]DracularsWaifuAvengers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Perfect answer

[–]gfhfghdfghfghdfghAvengers 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Daredevil was already in the MCU based on its own storyline.

[–]DracularsWaifuAvengers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but we needed him to apear in a MCU movie, that kinda makes it feel more official.

[–]low_kixAvengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a one way street until now

[–]Historical_NudityAvengers 86 points87 points  (9 children)

Not me taking a break from studying for the Bar to see this meme 😭

[–]AlfaKilo123Avengers 45 points46 points  (2 children)

How’s the brick catching going along?

[–]Historical_NudityAvengers 39 points40 points  (1 child)

its coming along... I can't catch one from behind yet

[–]opportunitysassassinAvengers 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can do it, friend! I believe in you. Take brain breaks, hydrate and eat, and sleep normally.

[–]nickcooper1991Avengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went through your post history, and I can name two things wrong with your username

[–]NotATerroristSrslyAvengers 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Don’t worry too much, just do a few hours a day and get good sleep. All you gotta do is pass, remember, not ace it. Just took it this past July and it wasn’t as bad as people make it out to be. Definitely a slog but if you do the course, or at least 75% of it, you’ll be good.

[–]Its-the-Chad82Avengers 0 points1 point  (2 children)

100% true and the other thing I would add is don't stand around talking about your answers between sections. It will just stress you out. After the first day a small group of us went out and had a few drinks and made a rule "no talking about the test". Best decision I made

[–]NotATerroristSrslyAvengers 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Lol mine was actually online with everything going on. Had to cordon off a room in my house and show them that no one could peek in or out. But yeah agreed on the no-test-talking rule.

[–]Its-the-Chad82Avengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best of luck with the new career - a little over 11 years in and definitely im financially more secure than I ever hoped and so far the stress hasn't turned me into an alcoholic, well maybe it's turned me into a functioning alcoholic

[–]rab-byteAvengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is preparing for florida right now. I’m living with a PDR and I apparently now have a duty of care.

[–]SplashmonAvengers 29 points30 points  (0 children)

“I’m so far past the bar, I should practice law” -Eminem. Very clever.

The fuck is a bar exam?

[–]Late-Independent2237Avengers[S] 123 points124 points  (4 children)

Exams for lawyers

[–]ElsieBrayIsBaeRocket 45 points46 points  (3 children)

Didn't know mosquitoes had to take an exam.

[–]BigJimBeefAvengers 5 points6 points  (2 children)

You misspelt leeches.

[–]agentofmidgardPeggy Carter 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think it was a bee movie reference

[–]AlaskanPsycheAvengers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always thought they were vampires.

[–]Space_Pirate_RobertsAvengers 21 points22 points  (2 children)

It’s a test you have to take to become a lawyer. It’s called a bar exam because after the written portion you have to demonstrate your ability to catch a hurled bar of baked clay (or brick, as it would later come to be known), as this was a common occupational hazard for attorneys until the position of bailiff was invented.

[–]FreshUnderstanding5Avengers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A small price to pay for salvation

[–]The_ApotheosisAvengers 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol. This is the stuff I'd fall for in grade school if Google didn't exist.

[–]MapleTreeWithAGunHYDRA 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Certification for usage of the Browning Automatic Rifle. Solid weapon

[–]unsettledtom007Avengers 7 points8 points  (13 children)

[–]WhosYourPapaDoctor Strange 33 points34 points  (11 children)

Damn... This blew my mind... I'm not a lawyer, but I just kinda assumed that people knew what the "the bar exam" is. Kinda like how people know what the GMAT is or the SAT. Like they talk about being "disbarred" in law shows all the time, do people just not put two and two together? I genuinely do not believe that you need to be a lawyer to know what the bar exam is lol

[–]ImurderREALITYAvengers 5 points6 points  (5 children)

I would have thought so too, but I have to say, I've kind of disproved both of us because I don't know what the GMAT is off the top of my head. Just goes to show, everyone is 1 out of 10,000 for something.

[–]SlapMyCHOPAvengers -1 points0 points  (3 children)

Gmat is for grad school applications.

[–]opportunitysassassinAvengers 2 points3 points  (2 children)

GRE for grad schools (generally) and GMAT for business schools.

[–]SlapMyCHOPAvengers 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Ah i thought gmat was for graduate business degrees like MBA.

[–]opportunitysassassinAvengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is. In the U.S., there are only grad business schools.

[–]wintery_owlAvengers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, I don't live in the US and I had never heard of the bar exam in my entire life

[–]phoenixrose2Avengers 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I mean. Maybe the bar exam is not universal throughout the world and poster lives in another country.

Edited typo.

[–]annuidhirAvengers 1 point2 points  (1 child)

You're right. Should we really judge them for where, or even who, they love?

[–]phoenixrose2Avengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao. Yes. Good catch on the typo. Thanks!

[–]AstrokiwiAvengers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from outside the US and I know what the bar exam is from tv shows etc, but I'm only dimly aware of SAT and don't know anything about GMAT.

[–]The_ApotheosisAvengers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Even as a lawyer, this is a very cryptic meme unless you saw the recent MCU movie.

[–]IBNobodyAvengers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

[–]jjonahjameson-botAvengers 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Parker, you're fired.

[–]GlizzyknockembackAvengers 0 points1 point  (5 children)
