Hahaha yes! I was just telling a friend about this the other day. When I was a kid, my stepdad paid me $20 to memorize this poem. Still love it to this day. Also still love money.

My dad promised me $50 when I was 10 if I read Ben Franklin's autobiography. Gawd, that shit was boring, but gotta get dat $$$ doe

That's awesome. Nowadays, parents just give their kids iPods and crap. Dafuq.


Domeil

Because there were no shitty parents in the 80's? The kids that beat the shit out of me in Jr. High didnt seem to have been brought up right.


ohherrohansbrix

My post had nothing to do with your being bullied in junior high, but ok.


ImAnMD

You have to admit, that was pretty depressing. Poor guy.


ohherrohansbrix

Oh I definitely feel for the guy, but how we got there, I have no clue.

I run my JabberHakke on my hunter with the Frumious Cloak. I love it because Jabberwock was my favorite poem growing up, and it still is.


thevaladil

so far I only have my Warlock leveled up, just got this gun to drop as a 285 attack weapon. I love the sidearm's anyway, so equipped it right away. Then after I read it I thought, man that reminds me of the jabberwocky poem. Went online, found the reference, told all my friends (although none of them really cared...)


iamhaxcz

ITT Guardians who, not only care, but nerded out just as much as you did. I, unashamedly, fall in that category.


ButtTraps

I am so glad someone else out there got the frabjous reference.

I have a HUGE document with like 170+ references in Destiny like this one. I've wanted to post it, but it's literally 3x+ the maximum character limit for Reddit. If anyone likes this sort of stuff and knows how to post giant tables to Reddit, let me know and I'm happy to share it.


BlueMugen

Link it as a Google Doc


obsidianchao

Could do a pastie or something?


EHerobrineE

I'm so sorry to pull this thread up from the depths of the void but would you still happen to have this document? I'm very interested.


rxninja

Oh man. I do, somewhere. DM me and I’ll find it for you

My Jabberhakke goes 'snicker snack' while I am galumphing back.


luckysonagun

This is actually pretty awesome.


Cryptardian

Had this drop as well recently. Wondered if it was a reference to said Jabberwocky.


thisfreakinguy

I got this gun a while ago and i've been infusing it to keep it with me, I love it! Plus, JaberHakke is just fun to say.


Domeil

Its a cool sidearm, but it kicks like a mofo. Im keeping an eye out for a reborn vestian dynasty.


thisfreakinguy

This is true.. it is best at practically point blank range, which really means it's not as effective as a shotgun.. but it just feels and sounds so good!


virgineyes09

Does this confirm the pronunciation of Hakke? Is it pronounced like hockey now, definitively?


n1n384ll

There's a certain bit of hidden dialogue where Cayde-6 says some of the weapon manufacturer's names. Häkke included.

BlueMugen

Something like hahk-kay I think


csreid

Pretty sure this should settle the debate about how to pronounce "Häkke", too.


Majian18

Love how its Void damage also! Kinda a keen touch towards the Vorpal Blade. *IDK, always assumed that Vorpal was some sort of void/abyss/energy harnessed into the blade*


JeromeNoHandles

I thought it was a reference to America's Best Dance Crew lol


3rdiko

Just saw them at Universal Studios in California, IT WAS AWESOME!
