Actually, purge night would be a great chance to fake your death. Since all crime is legal on purge night, Bob won't face charges of insurance fraud.

There could be a purge comedy about how boring old Bob from accounting broke into the morgue on purge night to steal a body. His original plan is to leave the body in his house and burn it down, sending the money to his wife who is dying of cancer. But then it turns out that the wife has hired a purge gang to kill Bob for the same reason.

The Purge has begun and I am dead-set on my mission.

Puts dark tint on car windows

Now for the final step...

Backs out of driveway and straight into a telephone pole because the tint was too dark

Sooooo.... Like one of those Rwandan National Unity and Reconciliation things?

Awkward doesn't even start until about 15-20 years after you murdered a bunch of people.

I only watched the first and it may well be the dumbest shit I’ve ever.

Same. There was some hype about it and i thought maybe it's not as dumb as it sounds. It's somehow so much dumber.

I doubt people would admit to killing Bob the next day. But people would talk about the bullshit Bob made everyone put up with, and the motives leading to his death. And maybe that would curtail people doing bullshit on the daily.

I expect that after the first few purges, most of the people missing afterwards would be the poor and vulnerable who aren’t able to defend themselves from the group who just want to kill.

That’s literally the plot of the purge. It exists to get rid of poor people.

Iunno maybe those movies just exist to reinforce the idea that the state's monopoly on violence is the only thing seperating us from 'savages'

I saw Savages in the theater, and I'm uncomfortable that this thin line is the only preventing me from watching it again

What would happen the next day is the main reason why we don't have purge nights.

Yep. Consequences have existed a fuck ton longer than formalized laws. The whole concept falls apart once you think about what happens the next day.

So…we all aren’t purge, but deep down we think of the shareholders?

John: "But why?"

You: "Marie told me Bob called me a cuck. Fuck that guy."

John: "That wasn't Bob from Sales, it was Bob from Accounts Payable."

You: pulls collar ehhh. whomp whomp music

You don't ask where people are after the purge night. You know and you don't want to know.

Literally this: https://youtu.be/LjHYS9Tt5bM

Bob from sales was annoying as hell and I'm about 70% sure he was the guy stealing everybody's lunches from the breakroom fridge. Nobody should be surprised about this.

Jeff, you’re now in sales since you killed the sales team. Yeah, actions have consequences bud.

Why purge if you're going to have consequences?

....So, Carol from accounting was a no show...

Carol, who denied my requisition for pens? Huh.
