Okay I'm really slow and i don't get the 'Chuck Norris' remarks/jokes thingy, can someone please explain???

I think it's just because he's done a lot of roles where he beats people up and like karate chops and shit. I don't really get the obsession. He was just an actor who played a tough guy and yet people treat him like he's freaking 예수님 또는 something. It's pretty stupid IMO.

And just because he was 인기 once, we get the GIFT of an endless slew of Chuck Norris jokes like "Chuck Norris is ten feet tall, weighs two-tons, breathes fire, and could eat a hammer and take a shotgun blast standing." Stupid much?
