Didn't realize he's a Founder.

Odo, when he realizes 95% of the crime on Deep Space Nine is because of Quark.

Wait, Macaulay Culkin is older than me? I somehow feel young. I thought I was older than I must've been when My Girl came out. Awesome!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 9 months ago (2 children)

My Girl will do that to you. I walked into the theater a 6-year-old boy and walked out an 80-year-old, world-weary war vet, like Matt Damon at the end of Saving Private Ryan.

No shit. The filmmakers were really like, "let's give all these kids a bunch of trauma. Nothing like the sobbing of the under 10 crowd to pump us up!"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Shit, I just rewatched it this past weekend and at 42 years of age it still brought me to tears. Just absolutely losing my shit bawling. Goddammit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

My sister watched it with her daughter (who I think is like 8). At the end of the film, my sister was in floods of tears, and her daughter was pissing herself laughing.

Running around the house going "His glasses, he can't see without his glasses!", doing the accent and everything.

Tom Hanks in Big vibes.

[–] EdibleFriend 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm here to remind you of those random pains to bring you back to reality when it comes to that whole 'feel young' thing.

[–] frickineh 2 points 9 months ago

What's your address? I just wanna talk...

But literally because my decrepit ass did 4 squats 2 days ago and my thighs still hurt, so it's not like I could fight anyone.

Whew. I thought he was older looking than me when I saw Home Alone at the drive-in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I thought he was older than me. Now I feel really old.

[–] LilDumpy 18 points 9 months ago

Nah bro, he's definitely like 6 or 7 years old.

[–] Chriszz 15 points 9 months ago (3 children)

I didn’t get this because I didn’t know at all who he was. You’re all definitely old.

[–] 474D 11 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Don't worry. Your time will come

Edit: I mean hopefully lol

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago

Hey (and I say this with all the love in the world), kindly go fuck yourself.

Now where's my Ovaltine....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm old, but I still don't know who that person is. I guess I just missed that piece of culture.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You have never seen or heard about Home Alone?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (3 children)

I have. I suppose you're telling me that this is the kid? Fair enough. I don't recognise the picture or the name of the person.

[–] voracitude 6 points 9 months ago

That is correct. It's okay, recognising Macaulay Culkin isn't a prerequisite, you can still be old with us!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

The first time I saw his name written out, I didn’t recognize it. I’m a few years younger than him with older siblings, so I heard his name before I was conceptualizing spelling and I don’t know what I pictured, but it wasn’t that. I think maybe McCall E. Caulking?

Greatest year ever.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Omg there are people like me here!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Mac has been on a few things in the last couple years. I recall seeing him on Mark Rober's channel and Angry Video Game Nerd. He's still great.

[–] _sideffect 4 points 9 months ago (6 children)

Am I missing something here?

1990 + 40 = 2030

Unless I woke up 6 years in the future, the math in the pic isn't mathing

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 months ago

He was born in 1980

[–] mayst0ne 10 points 9 months ago

You're thinking of 90s babies, not 90s kids!

[–] someguy3 9 points 9 months ago (2 children)

It's about Macaulay Culkin.

[–] _sideffect 1 points 9 months ago

Ah, makes sense now, thanks

[–] LeafOnTheWind 3 points 9 months ago

1990 is when the first home alone movie came out

[–] Aggravationstation 3 points 9 months ago

He was 10 in 1990

[–] garbagebagel 2 points 9 months ago

Fully I was like holy shit shit 1990s kids are 40????? Then remembered I was born in 1992.

[–] sagrotan 4 points 9 months ago

That wasn't so bad. I'm just 3 years older than that child actor that still can grow no real beard. To speak with Doc Holliday: Me? I'm in my prime.

I apologize in advance for the Tik Tok link but this clip nails this and that's just where it's hosted.
