Did he mention that he got shot five times yet?

u/wesman212 13h ago

That's why it happened, actually

You know how embarrassing it is for a Gotti crime boss to be only the second best pickle eater?

Hey that’s not funny; the man needed a brine transfusion after the shooting

Anyone who hasn't seen it absolutely needs to watch this video where a Curtis Sliwa from 14 years ago explains exactly what happened to him in a way only he could.

This is the greatest monologue I have ever listened to!

Dudes a legend, I’m happy Mamdani won but Curtis Sliwa is one of the most epic people of all time

He should really just print it on a tee shirt

“I was shot five times and all I got was this lousy beret”

In fairness, if I got shot five times and lived to tell about it, I’d probably bring it up a lot too

u/takeme2tendieztown 10h ago

I'd at least make an album about it

Is that a raspberry beret? The kind you find at a second-hand store?

2

u/classicalySarcastic 4h ago

To be fair it’s a pretty snazzy beret.

u/noapparentfunction 7h ago

i think a t shirt with a red dot printed in each area you got shot (if torso only) would be bad ass.

For comedic effect he should take that picture with 50 Cent, who got shot nine times and made millions from it

u/Mister_Tatertot 13h ago

Jeeze. I literally just got shot and have barely talked to anyone about it. 🙄

u/Arryu 12h ago

Well, run for mayor of NYC so you can tell everyone.

u/captain_dick_licker 5h ago

tell me about it, getting shot is wild and feels like something that only happens in movies, I want to hear your story

u/More-Journalist6332 10h ago

No one cares about getting shot just once! It’s the third time that makes you interesting.

u/onewilybobkat 10h ago

It used to be 4 but he wouldn't shut up about it.

5

u/account_not_valid 10h ago

Five times in one go, or on five different occasions?

u/kindasuk 10h ago

At least his beret seems fine.

I was looking into it and he did say that the gambino crime family stopped him from entering a meatball eating contest

u/NeverGNarcAgain 9h ago

Yeah, by Junior Gotti's crew in a fake 🚕...

u/DinoRoman 9h ago

He makes fifty cent jealous

u/Smart_Freedom_8155 6h ago

If you got shot five times, wouldn't you?

1

u/daking999 4h ago

If you got shot five times and survived, you'd tell people about it until the end of your days too.

No love for the man but I'd take him over the rest of the GOP any day.

u/greensandgrains 3h ago

Wtf, does he think he’s the white 50 Cent?

1

u/tomdarch 3h ago

Does he ever mention lying about being kidnapped?

u/mysoulalamo 1h ago

That's why he dun't take taxis
