A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Tracklist
He's bringing back The Spin Doctors!? Is there anything this guy can't do!? Was recently revisiting Little Miss Can't Be Wrong. Such a fun, funky, jammin' song.
Gimme some jimmy Olson's blues plz
Bonus track:
I want it for real now !
It's really bugging me that I haven't seen "The Adjuster" used anywhere but Lemmy so far. I think it's perfect, just like this album cover.
It's on Reddit too.
It's on TikTok as well
I'm out of the loop, can you explain what "The Adjuster" is?
Some folks call Luigi "The Adjuster" - which as mentioned is a common insurance job which impacts how much someone receives for their claim.
I think it's a play on the insurance adjuster job title. Pretty clever IMO.
Murder was-a the case that they gave a-me!
Real G's move in silence like lasagna
Real G's also commit fraud and floss out
Luigi’s family is worth billions. I don’t think he needs a legal defense fund. Lol
It adds perspective though. He risked a very cushy life for this.
I’m not finding anything about a billionaire family or his potential $100 million inheritance. While there’s no denying he grew up in a wealthy family, the online speculation articles are mostly guessing at the value of his grandmother’s estate - which would be divided among 10 children. It all looks like guesswork.
Any legit sources for Luigi Mangione’s net worth?
The family legacy from a credible source:

The numbers I got from the NY Post, so I doubt they’re exact, but they’re not unreasonable given the BBC article. I edited to remove them from my comment anyway.
That says NOTHING about net worth.
His grandfather owned so much of Baltimore in the 70s that people asked if he was in the mafia. His family owns country clubs, golf resorts, and assisted living facilities, and has donated $1M to a family center hospital.
Like I said, they can afford an attorney.
Guess what? People aren't their families and we don't know what his relationship with them is.
He may well not be on the best of terms with the rich members of his family, being the good kind of class traitor and all..
Source please. I'm very doubtful, I've seen claims like this repeated everywhere with no sources that actually mention anything related, just that his family has connections.
I replied to the comment above with a source.
I meant a source for your claims of his net worth. You're spreading mis(dis)information in the interest of pitting the working class against someone who clearly has good intentions and regardless of background has done something that immensely benefits almost all of us.
As I said, I double checked the numbers I cited and could only find them in the NY Post, where I copied them from. I don’t consider it a credible enough source without corroboration, so I removed the numbers.
I’m in no way pitting the working class against him. I’m simply saying the type of support he needs from the masses is not financial. My initial point about him giving up a good life was intended to illustrate that he had much more to risk, and did it anyway.

That's not much better imo. Anyone would have their life ruined (and possibly ended) if they did what he did.
Absolutely. That’s my point. Prison is the same bottom floor, but he’ll fall from a further height. It shows how committed he was to the decision. I’m sure it didn’t come easy.
Yeah, and my point is it's weird how you think the only thing anyone has to lose is money. The stakes are just as high for any of us.
You’re misunderstanding my point. He has chronic back pain and additional related symptoms. His pain will likely worsen with the poor care in prison versus the care he ensure he gets at home. He has limitless resources to continue pursuing new treatments for his condition. He’ll suffer plenty in prison.
He had a lot on the line, and I believe his choice indicates his desire to impact the system for everyone’s benefit regardless of his personal repercussions. Someone in a more desperate state could fall into the, “well, what do I have to lose?” mindset.
With the OG right behing him: Mr Criminal Mayor himself.
Is it just me or the font looks like Burzum?
Fraktur typefaces are today most often seen on evil record covers and in quaint Bavarian restaurants.
Yes.. can’t tell if black metal or hip hop
Maybe some nu black chimera
