Why as soon as I start reading this for my English class do memes of it start popping up everywhere

For those that don't know Amontillado is a particular type of Sherry, which itself is an aromatized and fortified Spanish wine.

I always upvote Cask of Amontillado memes.

Why is this not the top comment? I just lost it in the bathroom loud enough for my roommates to ask.
CrappleJack
Yes, Fortunato, for the love of god.
SophieClockwise

The thousand of injuries of Fortunato I had borne as best I could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.

For the love of god, Montressor!

In middle achool our class was separated into groups and given short stories to write on. Some were visibly upset by how much I enjoyed this
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
I love the Ray Bradbury short where they destroy all fiction, so a guy builds a house of horrors to off the architect's of the destruction
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
By being killed off by the fictional characters they destroyed. Guess how he offs the last one? Oh yeah!
TwelveAngryMuffins
Do you happen to have its name?
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
Usher II. Martian chronicles.
sheblindedmewithscience
The one in "The Martian Chronicles?" Or was is published separately too?
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
Separately. Maybe illustrated man? Or one for the road?
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
I lied. It is usher II and it is the Martian chronicles. Sorry.
sheblindedmewithscience
Haha. I just read it recently! I love Illustrated Man too. He's such a creative writer.
Tomcruiseisinyoursockdrawer
My personal favorite. Even above asimov and Tolkien. And yes I know that is a sin. I bring shame on my house.
sheblindedmewithscience
No harm in having a favorite! Sometimes a favorite doesn't always have to do with being considered "the best" by critics, but more about 1/

Edgar Allen Poe's short story. Dude gets another dude he doesn't like to come over and lures him downstairs with the promise of a cask 1/

/2 of Amontillado (a wine? I think) and instead seals the wall behind him to die a horrible death
Deonan
Thank you!

In Fallout 4, a skeleton hidden behind a wall in an underground tunnel holds an Amontillado bottle. The label reads MONTRESSOR - P. Edgar
Dragonfury5
Their devs have a sense of humor lol
stinkingyeti
I posted a screenshot of that the day i found it, nobody got the reference. I was sad.
GH05TY
Dragonfury is correct: A Cask of Amontillado. It's one of the few Edgar Allen Poe short stories that doesn't invoke the supernatural.
Dragonfury5
Thanks. One could argue that the supernatural isn't truly invoked in almost all, but instead manifests as such through the lens of madness
GH05TY
The read-between-the-lines, non-supernatural explanation of the Fall of the House of Usher is what makes it true horror.
Dragonfury5
Dammit now I'm gonna have to reread that again, I'm blanking on the story. Haven't read poe since I was like...15 maybe?
GH05TY
At first glance, it's a fairly generic haunted house story. The true evil, realized by the narrator at the end, is never explicitly stated.
