Meme so old the Rock had hair
Yeah, these days he’d have piss bottles in his sun visor.

Meme source: 2009 movie, Race to Witch Mountain.
To me, who saw the original Escape to Witch Mountain in the theater in 1975, this meme is fresh.
How’s retirement treating you?
I ain’t ON your lawn.
Well, congrats! That “more time passed since X than between X and Y” meme still doesn’t work with those.
The movie may be that old, but that doesn’t say anything about the meme.
This meme also isn’t +100 years old:
I wonder what a flashlight is in this context.
A flashbulb or powder flash for a camera.
Thank you
You guys have cars with working stereos? La dee dah looka mister fancypants over here, vibing on Alanis Morissette
Ironic, ain’t it?
I used to have the same thing, until someone broke in and stole it. Ever sense then I had burned CDs in the car. My current car has MP3 ability so I have 300 songs on a CD.
None of my current cars have a cd player. I can only consider that a bummer through nostalgia. The cd is antiquated as portable music.
I still use CDs, it’s a way to own the music, and it doesn’t play ads. Oh and no subscriptions
USB drives? It’s much easier.
I use thumb drives on my Bluetooth speaker. Different playlists on each.
I like and appreciate the extras that physical albums bring, as well as the freedom and reliability of physical media.
But even as an old guy that’s all about connecting with the physical world and stimulating all the senses and all that, when it comes to the mechanisms of listening to music it’s hard to beat FLAC albums on the Jellyfin server. It takes up so little space.
No, I get that. I dont do it myself, but if I did, id buy the cd, rip it, and then store the cd in my home so it doesnt get all fucked up from repeated use. Classic Ipod or even usb stick didnt have a subscription.
Word, same, I like owning the physical format. Though it feels more of a collectors thing to do now but I like listening to albums. Sort of a lost art but you can stumble on less played songs and keep growing that playlist.
I still use my CD player. Especially if I’ve forgotten to turn bluetooth on and can’t be bothering with flipping my phone out. Fiddling with a bunch of plastic and easily scratchable CDs is much better.
Brilliant!! Why didn’t I have this before? I have a 2005 ‘modern classic’ that has a cd multichanger, and the glovebox has a cakebox cd stack in that could definitely migrate to this Sun visor
What kind of car were they in? They haven’t made dome lights that big in cars since 8 tracks
Gotta be a pickup.
Edit: went looking. It’s actually a Chevy Caprice outfitted as a cab, that’s why the aftermarket large dome light. Here’s the scene.
Yeah, but there’s also seatbelts in the back. The car is either straddling the line between generations or it’s set design fucking with us.
One day I will find out what film this meme is from.
It’s a mid-2000s remake of a 70s movie called Race to Witch Mountain.
It’s not worth to go looking for it. It’s a mediocre film at best.
