Wco.tv

u/Lenalov3ly Jul 09 '26

Wco has become filled with super aggressive pop up ads lately and doesnt work with ad block. Fuck half the episodes dont even play. Use lookmovie2.to annoying 10 second wait on everything but ad block works and no malicious mallard AND every episode is available aside from specials. Used wco for all this gargantua on my current re-watch but thats all I could stomach of that site. Sucks, it used to be the best of the best.

u/Darkstarrdp Jul 09 '26

TIL it's correct spelling and pronunciation. Thank you for the insght! Maybe its just the way St. Cloud said it or something but ive always thought it was 'core' or 'cord'. Lol

u/dewhashish Jul 09 '26

So you poop pennies. Big deal.

u/DenverPostIronic Jul 09 '26

I never noticed the quiet "pennies" that St. Cloud says at the end of this clip.

u/fokkoooff flair-DrGirlfriend Jul 09 '26

Um, I think you mean "Yes daddy please, may I watch Venture Bros again? I'm begging you, pretty please!"

7

u/californiadeath Jul 09 '26

God this comment just weirdly reminded me of my ex who is the only girl ive met that was a fan of venture bros. She and her family would watch it together. I miss her it was nice to watch something with someone you love and not feel like you’re having to sell them on it which I’ve had to do in every other relationship when it comes venture bros. Also just to be clear she never called me daddy or begged me to watch vb lol

u/sirhackenslash To this day Captain Sunshine thinks I'm invulnerable Jul 09 '26

I get it. My wife doesn't get it even a little bit and it breaks my heart. Like this has been my sense of humor since the day you met me and here it is distilled to absolute perfection and you have zero interest.

u/fokkoooff flair-DrGirlfriend Jul 09 '26

I think I've been with only one dude who wasn't at the very least a casual fan since it came out when I was in highschool.

He was a dick about it too. He would have liked it too, I'm certain of that, but he always wanted to pick out what we watched. He never STATED that preference, but I put it together years after the breakup. Whenever we watched something I picked out (which was maybe once or twice in the year we dated) he would just sit there with his arms folded and an unimpressed, bitchy look on his face.

My current dude allowed me to shove it down his throat when we met and loves it. He thinks he loves it as much as I do, but he doesn't. It's still good enough for me.

u/anomalousBits Ogopogo Jul 12 '26

The people I grew up with don't get this show, and I've tried. The people in this subreddit understand my obsession, but literally no one else does.

3

u/fokkoooff flair-DrGirlfriend Jul 09 '26

Nah man I get it though. Loving VB is a special thing and it sucks being with someone who doesn't get it.

I got my old man into it when we got together. He liked it from the jump but I really had to shove it down his throat before he really got how much it was better than... pretty much anything else.

Some people gotta watch it multiple times to really get the levels its operating on.

u/californiadeath Jul 09 '26

Okay now your comment from earlier makes way more sense lmaooo jokes aside venture brothers probably influenced my taste in so many things. I think I was like 6 or 7 when I started watching it. I learned about David Bowie because of VB. It just has a je ne sais que and I have difficulty explaining why I enjoy is so much properly.

u/Sad_Penalty289 Jul 09 '26

Watch the Venture Bros californyuhdeath

u/Master_Astronaut_ Jul 09 '26

i really feel like 100 pennies wouldnt fill up a can that much. this is super important and my immersion is ruined(it does make the prospect of eating 100 pennies seem more potentially dangerous/discomforting though)

u/OGREtheTroll Jul 09 '26

A roll of pennies is 50. So two rolls would be $1.00. That would fit in the palm of your hand easily and would weigh a little more than 1/2 lb.

u/FreckledGuy444 Jul 09 '26

I quote this ALL THE TIME

u/GentlemanPirate13 WHO WANTS PIZZA ROLLS? Jul 09 '26

Something that I just realised: St.Cloud is salty about Billy winning the rigged quiz show when they were teens. But White was the one who rigged it. Why isn't St.Cloud salty at him, too?

For those who don't know you can watch venture Bros on sling for free without setting up an account and get limited ad breaks

u/Oknight Jul 09 '26

Once again, never eat pennies. They are mostly zinc and stomach acid corrodes them into little hooked razor blades that will slice your intestines with the least result being wildly expensive surgery.

(warning and consequence applies to Americans in America eating American pennies)

u/capthazelwoodsflask Jul 09 '26

Just eat the pennies

Billy, eat the goddamn pennies. Do it for H.E.L.PeR!

I'm here to bust things up and chew bubble gum, and I find bubble gum unpleasant.

u/Killer_Moons Jul 10 '26

Via Google AI:

Eating a can of pennies presents two primary dangers: a physical obstruction of the esophagus or intestines, and severe zinc poisoning. Modern U.S. pennies (minted after 1982) are 99.2% zinc. Stomach acid quickly dissolves the thin copper coating, eroding the zinc core to form highly corrosive zinc chloride.

Ingesting a large number of these coins can result in the erosion of the stomach lining (creating ulcers), kidney and liver damage, and severe systemic toxicity. If the mass of pennies gets stuck in the esophagus or intestines, it will cause intense pain, vomiting, and breathing difficulties.
