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

[–] tigeruppercut 25 points 1 month 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 month 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 month ago

Divorce is always good news.

"Stable marriage"

You vastly over credit us Sinatra fans

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

I've played Fallout, that enough?

Possibly ghoul too

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

Ouch. Not wrong but ouch

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

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

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

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.

Hey hey.....or jellyfin

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month 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 month ago (4 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 month 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)

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 month ago

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

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.

From the Halo 1 warthog grenade jump compilation?

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

Fly me to the moon 王OK

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

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

[–] solarvector 7 points 1 month ago (3 children)

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

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

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

they, like most people, have a higher opinion of SmallAnt1 than SmallAnt1 himself ever will

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

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

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

Accurate; I'm depressed.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

What if I learnt it in my moon jujitsu class?

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

Then you probably kick ass

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

What if I say Squid Game?

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

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

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

And the divorce is your fault

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

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

[–] luciferofastora 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

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 month 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.

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

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

Well, guess I'm depressed
