Nice try, Tom Hanks.

[–]Jase534 1 point2 points ago

6 months.

He checks out.

[–]effjaydub 0 points1 point ago

do you know if their lead singer is permanently out of the band or if she's going back after her pregnancy?

[–]Pariah_ 3 points4 points ago

[–]LiteraryBoner 2 points3 points ago

They had some pretty catchy stuff for being in a genre that generally doesn't pique my interest. I mean, you have to give a band called IWrestledABearOnce at least one listen. Out of respect for the bear.

[–]cuntniggerflyingjets 1 point2 points ago

What?!... But your name's like...But, like.... What!

[–]parker214 2 points3 points ago

I was really expecting this to be a brand new account. I am impressed.

[–]antibrian 1 point2 points ago

You must be easily impressed

[–]parker214 2 points3 points ago

Yes. Yes I am.

[–]DwightKurtShruteIII 0 points1 point ago

Plot twist: smellslikekevinbacon and OP are the same person. Posts something related to Kevin Bacon, and all he needs to do is comment for all that sweet, delicious Karma.

I should really get my job back as a volunteer sheriffs deputy.

[–]Princeps12 99 points100 points ago

The look on his face just kills me. Smugly holding back that smile, love it.

[–]Foxtrot56 12 points13 points ago

This isn't what actually happened though. In the interview Tom Hanks said Kevin Bacon but did not realize it, he was seriously saying that he was the best smelling but did no pick up on the name relationship.

[–]awkward_person_here 6 points7 points ago

I can't believe that

you made an account just to

make comments haikus

[–]Ignitus1 17 points18 points ago

Don't give him too much credit he just invented a robot that takes the job of the hard working American haiku commenters.

It always comes back to bacon (Kevin that is)

[–]PhillyT 58 points59 points ago

Six degrees of Kevin bacon?

[–]NotaMethAddict 44 points45 points ago

Six scents of Kevin Bacon.

[–]Boozewoozy 55 points56 points ago

That was Bruce Willis.

[–]Dildo_Ball_Baggins 31 points32 points ago

The bacon was dead the whole time.

[–]sk3lt3r 14 points15 points ago

DUDE. SPOILER ALERT. God dammit, Dildo_Ball_Baggins.

[–]TeBags 7 points8 points ago

He's a dead pig too

No, you're gonna want at least 165 degrees and then drain any excess fat.

50 Shades of Bacon?

[–]NotaMethAddict 64 points65 points ago

[–]soapwater 23 points24 points ago

Kinda shows how out-of-context it was taken, and how he wasn't even thinking of bacon when he gave his answer.

[–]gaspomacho567 9 points10 points ago

I like how only 1 comment points this out. The hivemind has spoken and they wish to disregard this fact.

[–]Foxtrot56 5 points6 points ago

Just like r/politics.

[–]Osiris32 2 points3 points ago

I disregard your reality and substitute my own!!

[–]cheezburglar 3 points4 points ago

yeah, reddit didn't really care when I pointed that out when this pic was posted 6 months ago.

[–]roidsrus -1 points0 points ago

He didn’t even ask for bacon but he was thinking bacon.

[–]Speall 13 points14 points ago

Canada type please.

[–]NotaMethAddict 26 points27 points ago

[–]tijoy 0 points1 point ago

the video doesn't load

[–]phishyz 7 points8 points ago

Loadable link please.

[–]MrBody42 1 point2 points ago

Maybe someone could take the relevant quote and put it on an image so you Canadians can get the gist

[–]twig_is_cunt_smasher 4 points5 points ago

What? The video, or the bacon?

[–]SpontaneousRobots -1 points0 points ago

lets just get this out of the way and call it ham already

[–]M0D3RNW4RR10R 1 point2 points ago

He'll trade for Canadian Bacon, and not Meth.

It's at 2:26 if anyone is interested.

Is it just me or is Tom Hanks acting really odd in this interview?

[–]bautin 1 point2 points ago

He's originally a comedian. He likes to goof off.

[–]wangotango22 2 points3 points ago

Is it wrong that I Googled Kevin Bacon and was disappointed to find out he's not Canadian?

I call that a missed opportunity.

[–]MunchomonFumbleuzar 0 points1 point ago

I now have you tagged as "Kevin 'Canadian' Bacon".

[–]NewZealandFloyd 2 points3 points ago

I bacon your parden?

[–]Evil_Eskimo 1 point2 points ago

Australia type please.

[–]Mightych 0 points1 point ago

I don't think I've ever seen him in an interview before. He looks like a lot of fun.

[–]Daveed84 27 points28 points ago

And that's probably not even all of them.

[–]megustadotjpg -1 points0 points ago

To be fair, these posts are all a year old.

[–]Daveed84 2 points3 points ago

I don't know if that makes it better or makes it worse.

[–]buchec18 46 points47 points ago

Oh..this again..

[–]ElPicaflor 3 points4 points ago

Bacon is much better with age. Or maybe it's wine, or whatever. You know what I'm sayin'?

[–]Engineer_Ninja 2 points3 points ago

Hmm, I've never tried bacon with wine before. To the kitchen!

[–]alpacafox 13 points14 points ago

He should do porn. The Bacon Sandwich.

[–]Urbanviking1 5 points6 points ago

As a watcher of porn, It would more likely be his daughter between two guys.

[–]ieatbees 5 points6 points ago

Why not Kevin between two guys?

[–]Urbanviking1 11 points12 points ago

Fair question. I'd be more interested in Kevin Bacon having a stripping act. Bacon Strips would be an appealing name.

[–]CherrySlurpee 1 point2 points ago

I figured it would be more of a pizza delivery thing.

"I ordered this pizza with bacon and sausage! This is just cheese!"

"well then..." unzip

I'm unsure about your style.

Need to find two girls with the last names "Lettuce" and "Tomato"

I would have gone with Halle Berry.

John Candy

John Hamm

[–]ogolee 3 points4 points ago

Somehow I imagine him smelling of cigarettes and scotch.

That could be accurate indeed.

[–]captain9 9 points10 points ago

Im not huge on the whole anti reposts but I've literally seen this 4 times

[–]twodollaz 12 points13 points ago

I've figuratively seen it a thousand times.

[–]Crim91 4 points5 points ago

I've virtually seen it every time.

[–]KNueve83 4 points5 points ago

I'll inevitably see it another time.

[–]slinkymaster 0 points1 point ago

and they usually don't make it to the very top post of the front page.

[–]mooreinteractive 1 point2 points ago

I am a decently heavy redditor, and I have never seen this before. I even watched the video. I like the joke better on the image. When you watch the video it's not as apparent that Tom was going for the pun, though we all really would like to think so.

[–]polarlover 3 points4 points ago

I was hoping he was going to say Terry Crews but I am not sure if he ever worked with him.

[–]chethaze 1 point2 points ago

Such a class act.

[–]enhance_that 0 points1 point ago

ROCKWELL!

[–]aldude3 0 points1 point ago

It is because he is greasy?

[–]augustusgriggs 0 points1 point ago

Also can't go wrong with Jon Hamm.

[–]berre023 1 point2 points ago

Anyone else think this is probably scripted?

[–]cormega 1 point2 points ago

I do.

[–]itscool 0 points1 point ago

Does he smell like... bacon?

[–]STretchJOhansen 0 points1 point ago

yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[–]Powerfury -1 points0 points ago

Awesome, the punch line is not in the title!

+1 reddit point for you!

[–]HerpieMcDerpie -1 points0 points ago

Oye. Tom Hanks looks OLD!

[–]Ghenges 0 points1 point ago

Oh, Tom Hanks. You're so great.

[–]TrueNorth0 1 point2 points ago

What if Tom was one of us? Just a slob like one of us?

[–]LupoScuro 0 points1 point ago

Scripted.

[–]Jackmack65 -1 points0 points ago

The technical term for that kind of question is "SOFTBALL." Nevertheless, Hanks crushed it.

[–]nakkh -1 points0 points ago

Aunt Jemima.

[–]PieCakez 0 points1 point ago

He smells so GOOD i would cook him and eat him...

[–]zerozx31 0 points1 point ago

And here I was thinking it would be Terry Crews pa pa pa power!

You know, Tom Hanks seems like the kind of actor who'd be a Redditor.

Kevin Bacon Strips, category: before & after

[–]MuttinChops 0 points1 point ago

And that is why Tom Hanks is still one of my favorite actors...

Tom Hanks is so funny. Always has a joke

[–]DarthWunateytoo 1 point2 points ago

I thought this was an /r/AskReddit question and thought, "How many people on Reddit are directors? I have to see this shit." Only to click on the link and realize it was a picture. I laughed at how stupid I was before I laughed about the bacon, if this is acceptable.

[–]kiruclanz -1 points0 points ago

I bet he smells like bacon

[–]beaverteeth92 1 point2 points ago

I fucking love Tom Hanks. He's one of the very few people in Hollywood that no one can find a reason to hate. I mean hell, the guy played and made fun of himself on Celebrity Jeopardy.

Nichelle Nichols. She wore the same perfume as my first girlfriend. The effect was electrifying.

For a strange second, I thought I was on AskReddit. And then I thought to myself, I CAN ANSWER THIS! IT WAS (so and so) from High School Theatre! And then I stopped, looked at the subreddit, and sighed. And was very, very scared about that reaction.

[–]Protagonist89 0 points1 point ago

Jim Gaffigan knew Kevin Bacons success was tied to his name too.

[–]no-game 0 points1 point ago

First he poses with redditors in a a jovial manner, and now he makes a bacon joke. I never knew he was that cool.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

What is up with reddit loving terrible jokes from celebrities?

[–]theNYEHHH 0 points1 point ago

I though this was an AskReddit post and now I am dissapointed.

[–]fugmunky 1 point2 points ago

You wanna know how long I was trying to understand this joke before I realized the title didn't say best smiling actor...?

[–]Absurd_Leaf 0 points1 point ago

Is this tonight's episode? I just checked his list of guests on Wikipedia so I could watch the specific episode, but Tom Hanks isn't listen on his guest list.

[–]Coolala2002 0 points1 point ago

It was nice of Tim Hanks to talk to that (relatively speaking) peon Jon Stewart.

[–]thatguyinyourkitchen 0 points1 point ago

I thought this was a r/askreddit post for a second.

Wow. When I first saw this I thought it was in ask reddit. I was excited for the comments.

[–]ViewAskewed 0 points1 point ago

Challenged myself to figure out the movie before I read the comments, took about 20 seconds. Anyone else do the same?

I saw the title, it made me think of that one post with Tom Hanks about Kevin.... oh.

[–]my_toilet_is_haunted 0 points1 point ago

I'm impressed Kevin Bacon still smelled nice after a week in space.

[–]BreSput -1 points0 points ago

People think it's funny, because bacon smells good, but what they don't realize is that Tom Hanks is incredibly antisemitic.

[–]kneaders 0 points1 point ago

Mmmmm... Bacon!

[–]Serrated_Banana 0 points1 point ago

If I had a penny every time I saw this comic on here, I'd have at least 12 pennies.

For a full 2 seconds, I thought this was an askreddit thread.

[–]awkward__moments 0 points1 point ago

why do reposts get so many upvotes....

[–]emsiela 0 points1 point ago

relevant? this was actually just posted today, so it MIGHT be more up-to-date on celebrity smells, including K. Bacon.

Jon: Who's the best smelling actor that you've worked with?

Tom: Tim Allen.

Jon: Seriously? I didn't know you guys worked together, I mean you did the movie Toy Story but that was just a voice over.

Tom: We did some group voice overs, we would meet up at...(Jon interrupts)

Jon (whispers): Just say Kevin Bacon!

Tom: Kevin Bacon.

But Tom is funny as hell. I just didn't give him enough credit.

[–]jonbowen 1 point2 points ago

You have obviously never seen Bosom Buddies or Bachelor Party.

[–]m15cell 0 points1 point ago

Yeah I have, like I said Tom is funny as hell. As just didn't give him enough credit in this interview.

[–]jonbowen 0 points1 point ago

Then it's your syntax which is confusing.

[–]m15cell 0 points1 point ago

My syntax? You should read my Haikus. Now those are confusing, and don't you even get me started on my operetta. I might as well smash your pinky finger with a rubber mallet. You would feel less pain. If I would use a hammer you would feel more pain. See? I did it again.
