that one made sense as a kid because I got sick a lot as a kid.
they call it “acting”
Well the characters on the show aren’t supposed to notice when they change actors. It’s supposed to be seamless… one character the whole time.
I think even as a kid I understood that, although I’m not sure when I first noticed one. Maybe Jennifer in Back To The Future??? I was a teenager by the time I saw the second movie with the new Jennifer.
The liars that told us it only takes three licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop.
Purdue University says it’s 364 on average.
Who said three?
Uh, that’s not exactly claiming that the answer is 3. In fact, after the owl (clearly wrongly) proclaims it’s 3 the announcer says actually “the world may never know”. Implication being that you just can’t get through it while resisting the urge to bite it as the owl did.
I don’t recall being confused by that as a kid.
tbh though as a kid i had no concept of “acting” and i thought villains on tv were real villains and heroes real heroes
