Kids in few few years will not even get this...

nota999 · 3 months

Yes, because after a new generation arrives we burn all information of the previous. They will have no way of knowing about Looney Toons or classic game franchises.

THEsolid85 · 3 months

I went to 9gag a couple times. half the posts had this exact same title. therefore, I must implore you to shut the fuck up.

Hyleal · 3 months

Rather conceited to think entertainment doesn't make it into the future. How old are you? 14? 20? Maybe in your 30's or 40's? Wile E. Coyote has been around since fucking 1948. That's 64 years. A new sonic game came out this year. 21 years after the first one. Kids will know exactly what this is, even if you don't tell them and you will. The funny part is that they will assume that you are the clueless one who has never experience the awesome of this cartoon and video game.

kickassdonkey · 3 months

No, no they wont. You know why? Cause they'll have their own memories to form. Just cause we all grew up with Mario and Metroid doesnt mean that's what we have to shove down our kids throats as well. Why cant we just let them discover stuff the way we did and create those memories themselves?

doyouunderstandlife · 3 months

Yes they will. Looney Toons still airs and they have new incarnations. SEGA will milk their cash cow until the company goes under (and even then, it'll likely sell the rights). I hate these posts "MY CHILDHOOD WAS BETTER THAN YOURS". No it wasn't, you just have nostalgia (also, some cartoons/kids' shows that air today are pretty amazing, too).

redditspice · 3 months

considering road runner and wild e coyote are over 60 years old... i imagine they'll be around as long as warner brothers are making money of their intellectual property... same thing goes with sonic being 20 years old, and sega/nintendo making cash off that for as long as possible...
your fake outrage over lost nostalgia is self righteous and short sighted

Flashfight · 3 months

Only us cool as fuck 90's kids will get this, anyone else shouldn't even be on reddit because they wont get my obscure 90's references.

Also, omfg I feel so old at 20 years old hurr.

I like the picture, but your caption is rather dumb.

theofficialposter · 3 months

Not to nit-pick, but shouldn't sonic be looking at the money to better identify the terms of the transaction? Right now it is difficult to tell who is giving who the money without the understanding of the context. Also, when I said not to nit-pick, I didn't mean it.

WhyGuy21 · 3 months

This post is no different from those "Only 90s kids will get this..." posts on Tumblr or Faebook. How old are you OP, 13?

Yeah seriously, no one uses cash anymore, everything will be done with credit/debit cards in a few years

Why's that cat blue?

lindn · 3 months

Because they haven't watched it and hopefully you don't buy any new sonic games for them.

Are you really expecting them to know stuff from your childhood?

pjgamer77 · 3 months

Looney-Toons was popular when my Grandma was a teen (she is 83). I'm 17 and watched/loved the looney-Toons as well, 60 years later. I doubt this will change. Kids will grow up with it, especially kids of the 90's generation since it is evident they loved looney toons as well. This is the same reason my children will know what "The Wizard of Oz" is, even though its a movie from 1939, when my Grandma was a kid. It has remained relevant because of parents/grandparents love/nostalgia for the movie.

utsavman · 3 months

Oh no kids won't experience the childhood I experienced, You're acting like a grumpy old man.

I don't get it now. Sonic the Hedgehog would never accept payment for anything that wasn't chilli dogs, rings or chaos emeralds.

DarthHaste · 3 months

Actually- You are wrong. With the rate at which companies are rebooting old franchises due to the lack of creativity and new ideas, I am sure they will understand this for generations to come.

Batrok · 3 months

Give me a break. Do you recognize Bugs Bunny? How about Betty Boop? Popeye? Mickey Mouse? The Grinch? Charlie Brown? All are from the 1960s or EARLIER. Yet somehow you know those characters.

Hollywood (and increasingly gaming too) are completly bereft of ideas. All of these characters will get recycled until long after we are all dead.

expertunderachiever · 3 months

I'd like to point out a lot of kids in the 80s and 90s grew up watching cartoons from the fucking 50s and 60s. They're not even "our" cartoons.

As someone born in 1989, I'm qualified to say, let's kill all the 90s kids, or kill two 90s kids for every utterance of '90s kids' including when people are complaining about 90s kids such as myself...I feel the 90s kids will turn out worse than the boomers, otherwise.

Mitz510 · 3 months

Is the OP retarded?

There is a Looney Cartoon on Cartoon Network right now. It's not the same as the one from the 60's or whenever it came out but it's there with the original characters.

And they make Sonic games about every year or two and they are all the same by the way.

Even if they grew up without cable or an XBox you 80's/90's kids will eventually rub your nostalgic I don't want to grow up dick in their face.

DrascaL · 3 months

I don't care that people at some point in time will not understand the joke. I'm sure eventually some people will not get it, and that's fine. I don't expect people to know about entertainment from before their time.

I'm upvoting due to it being fun, not because of the stupid title.

AkwardEgo · 3 months

My nephew is three and "beep beep" is one of his favorite cartoons. It still airs on Cartoon Network Monday through Friday.

Wile E. Coyote was my favorite; he is based on the old Native American trickster tales.

Sonic must be running at LEAST T1.

Paultimate79 · 3 months

Yeah unless they watch cartoons or play games at all.

Its like people that make these comics dont realize that 20 somethings HAVE played an Atari 2600 before and emulators are all over the place.

If they forget anything it'll be Sonic. Wile E. Coyote's been around since 1949. That sucker's got staying power.

RevRound · 3 months

Instead of trying to feel superior because the things kids enjoy change and may not be what you enjoyed as a kid, lets start hating on time. Time is the real menace here, if only we could stop it then nothing would ever change! We could live in our nostalgia memories forever and hopefully the rose colored tint would never go away! We need to kill time so that our superior cultural experiences when we grew up will never go away!

TL;DR FUCK TIME!

Yeah we all don't know who Tom and Jerry is and we've never watched any of the episodes although they were originally aired 70 years ago. Right guys?

After breakfast we went outside and played with his 6' arm catapult. Good times.

Wait, why will they not get this? As if Warner Brothers will stop playing reruns of Looney Toons that have been playing for 60 years? It's a little short sighted to imagine such a thing. These cartoons are classic, and will likely be a part of most childhoods as long as we have visual media.

Really? The Roadrunner and Coyote have been appearing in cartoons since 1949. The latest was made in 2011. Sonic has been around for over 20 years with new games still being developed. In a few years, kids will still get it. I would venture to say that in 2050 kids will still get it.

That's fucking dumb, I'll bet Sonic, Wile E. Coyote, and Roadrunner were created before you were even born. Many generations have known about them, and more will too.

You are an idiot I am of this generation and I love the looneytunes and guess what I know who sonic is so get back inside your moms basement because you would Only be proud if being born at another time if you had nothing else to be proud of
