Jesus Christ, people don’t know what stagflation is?! A fast-food worker could afford to have a home and a family with the buying power they had in 1978, but now you can’t do the same thing despite being paid three times as much, because cost of living’s gone up FIVE times as much. That’s how it works. Just remember, kids, every year you don’t get at least a 7.5 percent raise, your effective buying power is taking a cut.

Erika "OMG, is this what it's like... I'm... I'm getting old" I love how they managed to give Erika a full on quarter-life crisis without even really trying.

Becca cracking up at the Gene Hackman's bit definitely was getting me starting to chuckle, I tried not to laugh but it's so funny.

The pins were probably supposed to include Gene Hackman films. Hope your sins aren’t Unforgiven. Hoosier undertaker cuz you’re dead. French Connection? More like the Greek Connection… down the River Styx.

Becca's immediate response to the federal reserve improv being a panicked "BERNANKE!" was absolutely perfect

"Get pinned" is absolutely brilliant

Alfred pulling Benjamin Button as "opposite Brad Pitt" meant the world to me

As fun as it is to see people just fail, or be cool as ice throughout, it's nice to have an episode where you legitimately can't tell who the winner or loser is going to be just from reading the cast list.

As someone who grew up Catholic, that description of description of weekday Catholics is accurate af.

Most of the Stranger Things kids are still technically teenagers at this point, so that is still a relatively easy answer. For old actors - just try to remember any large movie franchise, almost all of them still bring back the old actors.

Let's all be both glad and sad that Amy V. Wasn't here on this one, it would have been half an hour long!

This has such a strong Lily energy throughout the episode :D

Several moments of this had us laughing out loud, and only a few were due to the existential crisises!

It's extraordinary how Becca and Erika were tied all the way through

I had the same feeling with zendaya I was thinking she was a teenager and learned she's 2 years older than me lol

Becca is great. I'm not sure who she was imitating at 7:25 but it was spot on.

This is glorious chaos!

I am sad they didn't do the stagflation question opposite the several CollegeHumor employees I bet could explain it and would get visibly flustered at the stumbling inaccuracies.

Erika not knowing any teens was understandable because teens are boring and dumb, but Becca only being aware of one Gene Hackman movie was devastating.

@lberghaus

Жыл бұрын

The problem is that when a teen becomes a celebrity, it's like 2 or 3 years later that their celebrity level reaches general non-teen audiences, and then they are probably only still a teen for a year or so. You're better off just thinking of the most recent child actor you can and hoping they are now and still a teen.

I've never attended a catholic service outside of funerals so I searched online to see if there were any other color of wafer besides white and the images look like their a cross of sterilized medical equipment and sanitized truck stop products to add into your coffee. Also the websites offering wafer recipes and wafer manufacturing give off a weird energy thats hard to describe other than sinister.

Erika always laughs the most and that makes it fun (this episode excepted) Just like Katie always laughs the least and that makes it fun Trapp and Brennan always did well too, it's all fun

"opposite brad pitt" made me laugh the hardest ive yet at one of these

So having worked in a news studio I can tell you a lot of the time the news anchors don’t know what they’re about to read.

The more I watch this, the funnier "The question being, Am I Dead Yet?" gets every time

Becca's excitement about JK Simmons, followed by her thirsty face when Alfred says her name makes me think I know who her celebrity crush is....

Nice graphics

"Housing bubble" is actually a figure of speech. "Housing" in this case means "deer," as in a deer is rapidly swelling and expanding and might quite literally pop, which is obviously quite messy. And _that_ is stagflation.

Erika if it makes you feel better, I immediately thought of McCully Kulken, and he's older than me
