    Not quite; movie’s only 35 years old. First colonoscopy is recommended at age 45.

      To be fair, it also says if you remember this movie. So you’re adding on at minimum 4-5 years before you’re old enough to start remembering this movie at all, much less clearly. Then there’s the wording that says “about time”. To your not quite I instead offer a simple “Quite.”

        You’re right, but it doesn’t make it more likely the viewer is older.

        I’m 30 and I remember the movie, but I probably watched it when I was like 10 and the movie was already 15 years old.

          True but, and this is really important, this is a meme.

          Not sure why this instance particularly is so fascinated with taking every meme painfully seriously. It’s a bit idiotic.

            No, because I recognize this movie without having seen it in theaters, and am under thirty. The post only says recognize, not “remember seeing in theaters”

              Yeah, and its almost like it’s a meme and not meant to be taken super seriously. Like the comments. Something that repeatedly seems to sail about three miles above yalls head.

            I can put a 5 year old in front of this movie to watch it for the first time, do they also need a colonoscopy?
