It’s become a meme called “lesbian silence” or “gay silence” or something, it’s supposed to represent a moment when a gay person can’t or doesn’t want to openly talk about their sexuality, so they just kinda - stay quiet like she does.
There’s this song by Wall of Voodoo called ‘‘Far Side of Crazy’’, go listen to that a few times then come back and read the rest of the comment.
spoilerpretty cool song right?
spoilerAnyway, It’s about John Hinckley, a lot of the lyrics were lifted from a sort of manafesto he wrote, he tried to assassinate Ronald Regan, he had a lot of mental health issues, and he watched Taxi Driver, and decided to do what he titular character does in the film by assassinating a politician, it’s not clear if he understood Jodie Foster was a seperate person from the character she played in the film, but his motivation was to impress her.
Anyone who knows who Hickley was historically, as he was released recently, and there’s video of Regan doing his ‘missed me’ joke at rallies making it’s rounds ever few months, I’d say pretty much anyone with internet or reads the newspaper likely knows.
Especially if you discount all the other comedy shows that don’t involve a person and their robot friends trapped in space being forced to watch cheesy movies.
My favorite episode was when they watched Zardoz, although I’m not 100% sure they ever did watch it - I may have just watched it by myself and imagined them saying stuff about it. Honestly, Sean Connery in a codpiece writes itself.
Somebody else already tried. Since they stole your thunder, you’ll probably want to do something about that, first. To do that, step one is to acquire a time machine. Any time machine will do, but you’ll be going to the 80s so you’re gonna need to blend in, so I’d suggest one of the phone booth ones or the DeLorean.
