This was wonderful! Thank you all for this wild ride.
Lyricalwordsmith
Oh my fucking god, that was enjoyable.
CatSparkleBreaker
Thought this was going to be a good origin story for the Bardo and Grill Diner
Hellstorm99
F*** the sandwiches. Come for my rotini casserole, my half beef/half pork roasts, my grilled cheese on Texas toast. God? Satan? I don’t care who you send, I would love nothing more than to cook for a family again. Just, angels and demons, no fighting. Second helpings are always available.

This is an anime waiting to be made.

There already is one where Satan's a part timer... this feels like a natural alternate take.
jherazob
Well, he's named "Satan", but he's just the stereotypical Overlord from japanese stories, not the Judeochristian Devil

Can somebody please illustrate this?

i love the one about grandma accidently summoning a demon and thinking it's her grandson. Anyone have the link?

I read this whole story every time it pops up. I grew up Christian, but the notion of demons=bad was a little too simplistic for my curiosity. I've heard some alternate banger stories from older versions, supposedly, and wonder why they got cut.
drduffer
Thanks. I enjoyed it and could see the backyard and that kitchen very clearly. ⬆️
SlightlyDodgy
The best demons eat apples and help you to kill bad people.
HasteTheFool
You're thinking 1950's gangsters, the best demons teach you to play new songs on the violin while you sleep.
Meqad
No he was thinking about Japanese gods of death, Shinigami

This could be a full Neil Gaiman novel. I loved this, Thanks for sharing

So we can get apple juice in hell?
mentalproblemz
No, that's why they come up, for Apple Juice and Sandwiches :D

Alternate universe Arthur Dent!
HasteTheFool
Arthur Dent? Our one Bob-given sandwich-maker? He who came in a flaming chariot of fire? He whose daughter descended from the heavens in a non-flaming chariot to take him away? Arthur Dent who somehow managed not only not to leave with his daughter, but also to lose a dangerous pan-dimensional bird to her? Arthur Dent friend to Ford Prefect with whom he left by riding the Perfectly Normal Beasts to the lands of the King? THAT Arthur Dent? Never heard of him.
AJKratos
Very good read. Most enjoyable. It's good to reconnect with lost family lol
Windharp
I read that quite often, but never in this long version. Really a great read!
mentalproblemz
Humans help connections happen, whether wanted to or not!
AJKratos
Very true. Well said my friend.
HedonistBeard
As long as they weren't and aren't abusive, of course. Then they aren't family and should in fact be treated as the enemy.
Loadertron
Yeah, it has a pleasant Douglas Adams vibe to it that made me want to re-read the Dirk Gently novels again.
DeathtrapGarage
Is it raining in here? As someone whose family has all but abandoned, this hit harder than I would have thought.
mentalproblemz
I'll be your family... I won't abandon yo... oh look, shiny!! Be right back!!!
Syko73
Been there. The trick is now to go and create a new one. Contrary to popular belief, you can ABSOLUTLY choose your family. Because not all family is blood, and (as I'm guessing know) not all blood is family
DeathtrapGarage
Thank you. It's something I'm still working on.
istillhateithereintheus
I read the whole thing every time I see it, it’s almost a combination of the show Lucifer and the show God’s favorite idiot lol
Harm
Having to go back taking care of previously dead flowers is an underated side effect of providing free buffet to angels & demons.
Syko73
I like that little aside too. But would you really have to "take care" of them after a divine resurrection though?

Just be sure not to lock them in a room until they become zombified?

But htat's half the fun

That leads to The Sims Religious DLC, I can't count the ways that could go so terribly badly. But it sounds very very fun.

I loved that series. Come to think of it, it would be a PERFECT multi-season Netflix series - one book/incarnation per season.
jscuster
That series was nice fun fantasy until For Love Of Evil. Parry’s story hit me like a damned truck.
jscuster
And I mean that as a compliment. It completely transformed the series for me into something so much grander and more meaningful. I’ll always love the Bio of a Space Tyrant series. And the Mode books have a place in my heart. But Incarnations of Immortality is his best work.
brandoncornwell
I will always have a soft spot for his Adept series. It was the first of his work I read. BoaST was really good too. Did you read the one from his sister's pov he wrote as a followup?
brandoncornwell
That was a good series.
Couldicareless
Possible similar origin story to Dresdens supernatural bartender friend?
mentalproblemz
Well if the Kid Who Would Be King taught me anything it’s that Merlin does like a good sandwich, and he’s good at starting as well as stopping fights!
austinwizardforhire
My thought as well. Accorded Neutral Grounds under the Unseelie Accords

I initially read it on Reddit years ago, loved it and lovingly ‘borrowed’ it. But the link for it is https://www.reddit.com/r/tumblr/comments/8c0z45/angels_demons_and_sandwiches_the_complete_saga/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Oh no I ment for this specific gif but thanks :)

Well, the scene has an 80s/90s feel to it, and the grownup could be Eric Roberts, but otherwise I'm coming up empty :(

God is a vegetarian? Not old testament god.
aPokal
That bit made me wonder about kosher rules. Are those just for us or is that one of the, likely many, things they split?
MikuJess
I imagine the God in this story referring to that as his "cringe years" or something, lol

He's trying to improve his image with the young and trendy folk.
ATastyCorpsesicle
He needs better promoters.
busterfixxitt
Iirc, it is the scent of burnt offerings that is pleasing to the Lord, not the offering itself.
elbowdeepinawhateverthatis
I mean shit, I don’t blame the guy, driving past a barbecue is pleasing to me, too.
vegivamp
Well, god being a carnivore would kind of imply he created life to serve as a food supply... And that actually fits with the shepherd imagery. Shepherds don't eat grass...

Could be one of those "if *he's* doing it then I have to do the opposite" situations
SteveTheEgg
You can enjoy vegetarian options without being vegetarian.
ThrowAwayAcct0000
That's true. There's a really good vegan place near me that I go to sometimes because it's delicious, and I am definitely not a vegetarian or vegan. It's just tasty.

He just likes the scent.

You never know, he could have food allergies... Or you know like his doc says he has to lay off the red meat for his cholesterol health. You don't know what God and his Primary Care Doc talk about!
HorriblyPositive
I like to imagine it's the stress I cause them.
zafner
It's blood. For some reason God likes blood.
ICantThinkOfAUsernameWhilePooping
I don't care what they talk about but that fucker better get a bill after.

His medical insurance refused to pay up ... declared it an Act of God
Mavgurian
The catholic church will pay for it. It is probalby the reason they grabbed all that Jewish money in the 1940s.
Lyricalwordsmith
He hasn't received his bill yet. Just his Explanation of Benefits.
SteepedGardenMrsChen
I feel like this is a very clever joke. But I'm not Christian or American enough to get it.
TussleTheCat
Trust me, you don't want to be either of those things. (Please send help, the US is dying and the good people seem powerless to stop it... I also understand if you just want to eat popcorn and watch The Fall of Rome 2: American Edition play out)
CuddlyPervert
You figure the animals weren't originally for consumption. Maybe meat just isn't his idea of good food?
HiddenSanity
I mean, old testament he asks for animal sacrifice...
CuddlyPervert
That was after Noah and the allowance of eatting meat, but you still have a point.. he did ask for alot of chickens.... well... maybe jesus came cause he went vegetarian and was sick of all the meat being sent his way?
HasteTheFool
Yeah, but Cain introduced murder into the world because of God being a picky little bitch. After a few thousand years of guilt, it put him off meat.
