Saw it, yeah. But it never really hit with me as something I identify with. I saw tons of things made before I was born, but things that came out after I was completely conscious of storytelling resonate differently.

ET doesn't do anything for me in this meme. It might as well be Elmer Fudd.

    lol, funny enough I'd also identify with an Elmer Fudd reference. I grew up watching a ton of Looney Tunes in the early 90s.

    While I will definitely get an Elmer Fudd reference, I won't really identify with it. It was already an outdated culture while I was growing up. It was the cartoon I watched when I didn't have other cartoons to watch.

    Basically, my father would make jokes about being "vewy vewy quiet" because we were hunting "wabbits". I knew what he was talking about, and appreciated the humor, but it wasn't my humor.
