How many people are actually going to get this?

Wow. The guy could have killed Reagan.The world would probably be a much better place if he succeeded.

She looks like she's 15 in this gif...

She was 16 or 17, so you're not far off.

No she was 12 when cast and 13 when the film was released. (edit: unless the gif is from 4 years later)

She was 12 years old when she was in Taxi Driver, her breakout role.

I have no idea what this is about. Somebody care to explain?

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. ::: spoiler spoiler pretty cool song right? :::

::: spoiler spoiler Anyway, 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. :::

I learnt about it on an episode of American Dad LOL

It was the Well There's Your Problem podcast on an episode talking about PSR or something like that for me

Get it? I remember it! I was only 4 or 5 years old, but my parents had the Newshour on every night and listened to NPR too.

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.

I don't know, but I do know I'd kill Donald Regan to prove my love for Lisa Foster.

(You have no idea how many times I've seen this episode.)

What show is that?

Why it's only the funniest TV show ever made!

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.

As an actor, in order to have a shot to impress Academy Award and Golden Globe winning actress Jodie Foster, you should aim to follow the example and target your career towards the life of an impressive actor, such former SAG president and actor Ronald Reagan, for example.

Step 1) Be a woman

Step 2) Reanimate the rotting corpse of Ronald Reagan

Step 3) Take violent action against the Brady bunch

Step 4) Profit?

Don't miss. It's always more impressive when you don't miss.

She's a 61 year old lesbian, with two adult kids, married to her wife of ten years. She's a hugely respected actor who's a household name, and undoubtedly has a net worth that could probably buy an island. I don't think you're gonna crack this nut, homie.

In case you missed the joke, this is a reference to how John Hinckley Jr shot Reagan because he thought it would impress Jodie Foster. It's posted today because of the assassination attempt on Trump yesterday.

Be sure to send unsolicited pictures of you genitalia! I think that she will enjoy them quite a bit!

Throw your cum at her.

Top tier shitpost

Go big & pull the full Miggs… snarl suggestively about being able to smell her genitalia before chucking the goo.

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.

Just to be clear, you're not a stalker? Because that's really a very stalkery thing to ask.

We just locked up a guy for being stalkery with Holly Willoughby, so....

Its a reference to the guy who tried to shoot reagan cause he was obsessed with Jodie Foster.

Jodie Foster is in her sixties now. The best way to impress a woman like that is by promising to take her to the finest nursing home money can buy.
