>Reacher, a vagabond who dropped off the face of the earth ...YOU DARE COMPARE HIM TO ME?!
Yeah but can you afford it?
>walk into a town
>find a extended stay motel
>find a minimum wage manual labor job that can pay under the table
>eat out, occasionally dine-and-dash if needed
>skip to next town when you run out of restaurants to steal from or the motel tells you to frick off
That's about $350 - $400 bucks a week in expenses, if you worked 30 hours at $15 an hour that's $450 a week in cash.
It's possible, but you'd want some cash to start out with.
>under the table
>$15 an hour
Find a better job.
If you're working under the table you'd be lucky they don't tell you to frick off at the end of the day, you're getting $5 an hour, $10 at most.
Have you actually ever worked, ever?
Do you get paid under the table often?
No because I have a salary job and I'm not Jack Reacher. However, many businesses pay in cash. You could be a self-employed mercenary worker for things like moving companies or handymen, give them the name of your 'business' and tell them you work solely on cash. Make an invoice if you want.
>No
We're talking about being paid under the table. Read: Illegal, tax free, no paperwork.
yeah, one time when I was a kid, I sold another kid a snow cone from my snow cone stand for $1 dollar and I didn't report it.
you sold him a blow cone from your blow cone stand
i snow him a sold cone from my sold cone stand
A lot of people get paid under the table, look at 1/3 of the Mexicans in America. Unfortunately, I'm not one of them.
Yeah and they don't get paid minimum wage let alone $15 an hour.
No, they get paid by the day.
You would think that lol but it's not true, day laborers clean up.
>However, many businesses pay in cash.
Yeah people don't realize how much companies, especially small businesses, like to get away without collecting taxes or doing paperwork. They'll throw you a 1099, call you a contractor, and tell you it's your problem. Then all you have to do is just chuck it in the trash and go about your business.
The federal tax system is almost entirely voluntary.
Only for those making bank, which he isn't
Tax loopholes are available to everyone. I'm by no means rich, and I have all kinds of legit deductions and tax shelters that the IRS has never cared about.
Well I certainly treat it as such.
>minimum wage
>$15 an hour
>find a minimum wage manual labor job that can pay under the table
better off going onto craigslist and finding shit to do from there that pays in cash
gl finding a motel that isn't a immigrant/tweaker hive in 2023
Watch "Worst Room" on israelitetube for a look into what the average low cost/no questions asked hotels look like.
Some of them are so bad that you would unironically rather sleep outside.
extended stay hotels are usually off in the exurbs near airports and interstates. If you are "walking into town" you aren't using one without having a car.
The motels that are in town are either $100 a night minimum like every other hotel in America or sex worker/drug user dens in the process of skimming a profit for "risky trade" which they can put into the system for a while before these places get shut down and the process starts somewhere else. Under the table jobs don't exist besides backbreaking labor outdoors to exploit mexicans who show up outside the Home depot for 50 bucks a day
you can to hook up with chicks on tinder and stay at their place for the night, but that involves sex with women which is a con.
I had a friend who needed a place to stay and managed to find a no lease apartment and gave bunk info to the landlord, he managed to live there for 30 days before the first of the rent before he dipped out.
You would need to go full vagrancy mode and just steal to survive and sleep where ever you can sneak into.
live in car. piss in bottles. get food bank rations.
there must be some job that involves traveling to different locations, staying there a few days to do the job and then moving on to a different one.
"Some job"? Photographers, consultants, sales representatives, event managers and many others do exactly that. I guess in theory nothing stops you from doing those but without having a home to get back to between jobs and taking as many assignments as possible to constantly travel.
yeah there's also plenty of military, law enforcement and security jobs that involve a lot of travel, staying at assignment destinations for short periods of time before moving on.
All of them are illegal.
Frick anyone who watches this shitty chud power fantasy.
What is it with feminist shows that always needs to have a strip club scene where the main character needs to beat up a guy because he didn't respect a woman's personal space?
Fricking scene nearly ruined the show for me. Blatant poz insert that wasn't in the book. Same with Roscoe also being a all-capable, super-intelligent cop, instead of a scared country cop out of her depth
>Same with Roscoe also being a all-capable, super-intelligent cop, instead of a scared country cop out of her depth
WHAT THE FRICK DID YOU SAY TO ME YOU LITTLE b***h I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW I PASSED THE FBI EXAM AT THE TOP OF MY CLASS
she gets a pass for getting DP'd by Reacher in a shithole Best Western
Yeah that was fricking gay, if it had been earlier in the season I wouldn’t have finished the show
frick you fricking troony homosexual. We need more shows like this instead your fricking homosexualry that has fricking ruined entertainment. have a nice day you fricking degenerate , you and your kind need to be gassed with the rest of globohomo. You're not a woman you ficking degenrate homosexual.
to my eyes you are no better than a Black person from the street
have a nice day , fricking degenerate troon. I would curbstomp your homosexual ass if I saw you on the street. You're not a woman troony fricking homosexual. You are mentally ill, and your kind has has turned entertainment into pure homosexualry. have a nice day.
>instead your fricking homosexualry that has fricking ruined entertainment
The black harvard grad and woman cop are two of the only non-corrupt cops in a lily White town.
One of the only continuous "good" people in the show is a random black barber.
The sidekick beats up a dude in a strip club.
Shlomo Goldstein is an accounting with a heart of gold, he was tricked into breaking the law and his report eventually got the good ol' boys busted.
The only non-White villains are a corrupt FBI agent, random cartel grunts, and some blacks in prison at the beginning (though the Whites in prison were treated far worse and were clearly looking to kill).
>The only non-White villains are a corrupt FBI agent
Wasn't he shot in the stomach and later that night he's fist fighting with Shaqwana?
Frick you even more homosexual.
This shit was way better than the Cruise version. I love Tom Cruise but some roles he's just not suited for, and Reacher is one of them. I would give my left nut if him and Michael Mann teams up again though.
I love this style of storytelling. Where you have to suspend rational thinking for the overarching arrangement and just focus on the middle.
The show was seriously better than the books. Lee Child created the concept for a great character, but he's a terrible writer.
I met Lee Child at Waterstones with my dad and everyone there was treating him like some God
I really tried to read his books. The first one was fun, but the more he developed the character and world in the series, the worse it got. He's a prime example of a stupid person trying to write smart people. He also doesn't know shit about how society functions. He's almost like an alien trying to describe earth.
>out of nowhere get to see roscoe's breasts
Absolutely kino.
The actress is 10x too pretty to be a believable random trooper
eeh, there are cute cops out there.
she's a deputy, but yes she's too pretty.
But where does he get his gear on his travels?
Goodwill.
He's a genetic freak; in fact he's basically a superhero if the books are anything to go off of.
6 foot 5, 300lbs sub 10% bodyfat, genius level IQ gigachad who has doesn't lift weights or maintain a training regime of any kind, he's just naturally that fit according to the book.
I think the only thing e sucks at in the books is fighting people with knives. Oh he can also tell the time at any point without a watch and can figure out where he is by using the stars anywhere. As I said, basically a superhero.
He's a power fantasy for boomers
6 ft 5 isn't even that tall.
Don't get me wrong, he's no manlet, but the way he's portrayed as a giant is pretty funny.
>6 ft 5 isn't even that tall.
not for zoomers, average zoomer height here is 6'4-6'6, only at 6'8 are you getting tall
shut up moron
The show sounds dumb as frick. I can understand if his back story tells you that he was genetically altered by the government. But just being naturally geared up? C’mon.
You forgot his memory ability.
>As I said, basically a superhero.
just a standard-grade Aryan ubermensch. I'm sure he seems like a super hero to all you little brown people who populate America now, but once, this was a great nation.
>Make America Great Again
>Destroying Israel wasn't part of his plan
Should be the first and only step.
If you're rootless and want to die alone, sure.
Why do you want someone to die simultaneously with you?
Why wouldn't you want to die at the exact same time as your loved ones (putting aside the fact you don't want them to die)?
>One chance at life
>I wasn't born with his genetics
Really bums me out knowing he's only a couple years older than me.
He's probably only a couple of cm taller too
The actor's wife is not particularly good-looking though. I've noticed a lot of these chad handsome actors tend to be married to mid at best women.
He's good looking AND has the wisdom to marry a good woman instead of some random piece of ass
yeah he comes from a traditional background and married his high school sweetheart at 24. It's not that he couldn't get a hotter woman if he wanted to.
I wish I wasn't a manlet
Did he ever find out?
Yeah. And he kicked its ass.
are you tall,very strong and great at fighting?
Yes, actually.
>just be a monstrous ex-military fighting machine
It's just that simple!
"He had fists the size of turkeys"
-Lee Childs
>"He had fists the size of turkeys"
lol
You can see he is standing on something to make him look taller, look closely on his right foot.
Must be exhausting being a director with him on set, have to force perspective on every scene, put him on boxes etc, just so the audience wont see the real height of this midget
>last name is childs
>writes like a child
>still infinitely more successful than me
actually his name is child.
but yeah, many such cases. it's not about being adult or smart per se, it's about being smart enough to sell a thing to the masses and print money by doing so.
He's military police but for some reason that means he's special forces trained as well as being a super spy.
i've only read the first two novels and they're entertaining but they have many similarities, the same evul convoluted plan by some sworn in sadistic loons to influence world politics, reacher being all-capable no matter the obstacles, a hot b***h being his side kick.
are they all like this? because i didn't like to read the next one after i've been spoiled by forsyth and clancy.
liked the show tho and the first cruise flick (is the cruise one based on one of child's books?)
ritchson is great and can finally play a good role after years of being a nobody since BMS ended.
>the same evul convoluted plan by some sworn in sadistic loons to influence world politics, reacher being all-capable no matter the obstacles, a hot b***h being his side kick.
So literally just James Bond but with no MI6 to guide him (which barely figures into the films anyway)
They're all the same, they are airport literature. Like capeshit but iin book form, there is very little literary merit in them, there isn't meant to be. Most books that sell really well are quite shallow and slop.
I still don't get what his brother's plan was
He gives Reacher the name of a blues musician associated with the town...and just hopes that Reacher will elect to poke his nose around town long enough to become embroiled in the counterfeiting thing? Why the frick didn't he just call his brother and explain things again?
Not get shot.
I mean obviously but then he had this backup plan where he subtly manipulates Reacher into going where he needs to go and just assumes Reacher will figure things out
No dead drop or coded message or anything, just "hey go to bumfrickville, it's where Bluesy Bluesman lived"
I thought Reacher just go onto a bus and came into the town on a whim because he knew the Blues singer came from there, he only later found out about it because he got arrested and helped out the sheriffs.
I swear he mentions that his brother was the one who suggested he check out the town because of the Blues singer connection
If not then it's even crazier that he just stumbles into the one small town that his brother was investigating right after his brother is killed
He may have said something a long ass time ago, unrelated to any of the events that happened in the show. But I think he just went into Margrave for the pie and the Blue's history lesson.
Okay so it really is just a coincidence. How very moronic.
It's in the book. I think he mentions it in the show as well. In the book, he really likes music, but the author forgets about that eventually. In the show, they never really address it.
>In the show, they never really address it.
I'm pretty sure he "nerds out" over blues music to someone and one of the clues his brother leaves is a intentionally wrong music trivia.
>no scenes of him doing any type of lifting or stopping to drink muscle milk
when the frick does he train, before the cops and villains wakes up?
He doesn't, the most he'll do is work manual labor. He's just a genetic linebacker.
Frick I never thought of that
How the hell does he maintain when he lives a fully nomadic life
Me and some friends went on a road trip once, one of them is a bodybuilder and whenever we reached a new destination he would search for the nearest gym and pay a fee for 1-2 workouts.
Even worse. The moronic author specifically writes that he never works out.
...why? Would it be that hard or diminishing of his story's "epicness" to just have some cool descriptions of Reacher working out in nature or something in-between parts of his missions?
It's for no other reason than that Lee Childs is british and is clinically moronic.
>Roscoe's future boyfriends all have to stack up in her mind against the hulking demigod who fricked her into next week in the middle of his badass rampage
Looks like him but younger.

Mark it down.
in the current climate this can only be shit
the trailer was already shit
i hate the current times
Is this a red flag? I've literally never used social media
What are you hiding?
Social anxiety and a face only a mother could love
People here claim women filter guys based on whether their social media shows a "cool social life" or status, or whether they have social media in the first place, but that hasn't been my experience. The only thing they care about is that you have a job, don't live with your parents and have some kind of social or friend group that communicates you're a normal person.
Some of those prerequisites can be bypassed if you're tall and attractive.
>The only thing they care about is that you have a job, don't live with your parents and have some kind of social or friend group that communicates you're a normal person.
This is very low bar, 3-6 level women. And even then they will expect more.
I'm no Chad but no, you don't have to be irl Jack Reacher to date or at least frick pretty women. I will grant you that having those three things isn't always easy though, it took me a while.
>job
check
>live outside parents
check
>some kind of social group
Frick
Can you guys vouch for me
As someone who has struggled with that, and recognizes that a lot of typical red pill advice about it is bs with no basis in reality, your only real options are through work or meet-up groups your city might have. Aren't you friends with any colleagues? No company events or stuff like that?
No. I work a very solitary job. Interaction with guests but almost never with colleagues. My boss, I recently discovered, didn't know my last name after two years of working under him.
Oh well. Dating was never gonna go well for me.
bro women will date fricking drug dealers and gangsters
i watched 5 episodes with a friend,
show is mediocre at best we did not even finish it but Im so bored I might do it
This is my ideal lifestyle even without the women.
Just go around the country learning things and doing odd jobs and meeting new people.
