Howdy, neighbor!

Your costume brought to mind this particular cross-over potential:

I don't understand this costume. But I'm sure it is not because of my age. Probably my cultural background.

This is from Home Improvement where the neighbour never showed his face fully. Usually he only popped up slightly from behind the fence, if he was somewhere else he would be obscured by a different object.

It seemed like it became a real game for the show to put him in situations where his face should be visible but to find ways to continue to hide it from the camera.

I see. I've only watched a few minutes of the show, that's why I have no idea.

I watched that show every week for years and I didn't get the reference either

[–] AlexanderTheDead@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

??? I have seen less than 20 episodes of home improvement, all over 10 years ago, and immediately understood the reference. The character is probably in like literally every episode, based on my memory of what I have seen. He's like one of two main cast members outside the direct family.

I also have trouble believing you, but don't really see a point in such a dumb lie, so like, what's up? Do you have a condition affecting your memory?

What's weirder than someone not recalling a tv show from 20 years ago based on what amounts to a bad Halloween costume? These dipshit ass questions:

so like, what's up? Do you have a condition affecting your memory?

LOL wut?! How could have watched Home Improvement for years and not caught onto one of it's best sight gags?! I don't believe you.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I don't care.

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I would have gotten there, but the title practically gives it away.

You’ve got some great tv to catch up on if you don’t.
