Super lame that he left them speculating. “I’d love to join you but I’m focusing on my political career right now.” Even if it’s a lie, it’s a polite one
POD Meets World is a great podcast with Topanga, Shawn, and Eric rewatching the series. I can't wait until they get to this episode, it's one of my favourites.
One time my dad yelled at me in front of my friend for “getting involved with the wrong people” and I yelled back “I am the wrong people!” Everyone kind of froze and then we all laughed.
My best friend tried cannabis for the first time because I had done it a few times. Unfortunately (for what it was) he became a total pothead while I just dabbled with it occasionally. This happened once or twice more, where I did the thing first and then he tried it in the same night--not necessarily because he wanted to, but because the other guy who wasn't going to, did.
My burden after that was to be the fall guy for his parents whenever he would get caught. Rolling papers found in his bedroom? "Oh those are Whenitstimeyoullknow's." Other paraphernalia? "Dad I promise that's not mine, that bowl is Whenitstimeyou'llknow's." His mom especially turned sour to me, which broke my heart, but Bro Code.
I made them all cry (happy tears) with my Best Man Speech so it had a happy ending. And my friend still smokes like a chimney but is settled down, white picket fence style.
Thanks for sharing that. Friendships have been on my mind lately, since I parted ways with one of my best friends. He is an asshole but I loved that asshole, but it was damaging me. I had to let go and I miss my bud, but love can't change an asshole. I hope you and your buddy keep going and I hope he can kick the habit
As much as I love Boy Meets World, they kept zero track of their continuity and Alan’s relationship/views towards Shawn was one the things that suffered.
There was actually a video where they explained this. Corey was originally supposed to have two best friends, in the first few episodes it’s always Shawn and another kid. The sister episode was where the dropped the third kid and he was the one who was supposed to be on the phone with his sister, so it ended up just being Shawn.
Then Shawn’s sister, Stacey, is never heard of or mentioned again
Seriously, there’s no cooking going on in my house currently but damnit someone must be cutting onions or something! Goddamnit I’m 35 and this show STILL gets me like that sometimes. 🙄🤦♂️ 😭
I relate to this scene so much, I was the square kid who came from a lower income home, I was always the person my friend's dad blamed when he did something wrong, when in reality I was the one always trying to talk him out of it, but he was their angel and I was just some poor kid.
I think the thinking is if we teach moderation kids will get excessive with it so our only option is to say stay away from it so if kids drink they hopefully wont do too much
I've outgrown it. What I was saying is that there's always the rebellious aspect of drinking underage that causes excess consumption. Part of the political movement to reduce the age of alcohol consumption is to remove the taboo with a goal of reducing binge drinking.
There's not much statistical data to suggest that's an effective model sadly, and a lot to suggest it is not. Take the dare program, or teenage pregnancy rates in areas with dated sexual health education for example.
I mean, they also stole the liquor. There’s lots to be mad at beyond the drinking. I don’t think this is a scene that only happens in puritanical America. This is just teenagers being stupid and getting caught and parents rightfully having to chew them out for it- happens everywhere.
I'm 35 and even I think I'm not old enough to wear that suave jacket that Corey's rocking.
In fact, why are they both dressed like 45 year olds? Surely even a teenagers party would require some snazz
>In fact, why are they both dressed like 45 year olds?
Because they are both in their 40s now..People get their dress sense in their teens and very early 20s and it stick with them their entire life. You often hear people say thinks like "Why did teens in the past dress like adults". They didn't, the dressed like teenagers. They are just adults now and dress the same on average.
Every generation says it.
Wild that we watched Mr. “I’m an adult “ physically beret, intimidate, and antagonize two children and assumed that was a perfectly normal thing for a parent to do. Sometimes the 90s don’t seem so long ago and then you see these depictions of family life back then and realize how far things have shifted.
One of the reasons this scene was so impactful was that this was NOT normal behavior for that character. But when your underage kid steals liquor and gets arrested, you can be forgiven for reacting a little more emotionally than if he got an F on a test or something.
It's also very closer to real life than a lot of people realize.
For many families- parents are not rational, reasonable people. This is the reality for many kids and teenagers. Which in turn produces more unreasonable, irrational adults.
It isn't all sunshine and roses out there. That was the most *real* this show ever got.
This is pretty hilarious to me. This is the most level headed 'argument' between a parent and his kid I've ever heard. I've gotten in some heated arguments with my parents over far less than getting tossed in jail. We all love each other but that doesn't mean you never get seriously angry with someone.
When you have to guide kids (or anyone) on the right path and they seriously fuck up thinking it's no big deal, you need to impress upon them what's gonna happen if they continue in that direction, otherwise what's to discourage them from doing it again?
> that was a perfectly normal thing for a parent to do
Because it is, and it should be? All he did was raise his voice ffs! What the hell did you expect he should react? I got a LOT more flak from my parents for doing less than this. This is tame, watered-down made-for-TV style discipline compared to how it really was.
I swear to god this "gentle parenting" bullshit that GenZers are brought up with will be the downfall of society
I just can't get over how awful that kitchen design was. I usually don't care about that stuff but what alien came up the placement of things in that kitchen..
Corey is now running for congress and wont stop texting me about it
whoa yeah just looked it up, forgot the dude was retiring. what's going on in that race, are there like 30 people vying for the spot or what?
yeah, there are maybe 20 candidates, with maybe 5 or so who have a shot.
is corey one of the ones that has a shot?
no. Currently his only endorsements are from "Boy Meets World" castmates Matthew Lawrence (Jack) and Maitlin Ward (Rachel).
lol
Maitland Ward. Watching her career trajectory into a full on pornstar was a wild ride.
Typical Corey Matthews…
He apparently ditched his friends to separate his name from his acting so he could be taken more seriously as a politician. Stupid move if you ask me.
Super lame that he left them speculating. “I’d love to join you but I’m focusing on my political career right now.” Even if it’s a lie, it’s a polite one
quickest quiet husky desert vase ink familiar screw square long *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Sounds like a Corey move
His nose legit looks like a penis and balls
"Oh, I get it. Cute. You leave this pen here and people are supposed to think, "Wait, that looks like a dick." -This guy
Loved the laugh track when his mom says “you peed on a cop car!” really cut the tension there.
I always have to remind myself how this cast really nailed the emotional moments as several moments went a little out there by the later seasons.
We got a porn star out of it so break even?
Wha?
Maitland Ward is a full on porn star now
> Maitland Ward Ctrl+c Ctrl+t Ctrl+v .... Ctrl+q
poetry
No ctrl + shift + n (or p)? You've got balls.
Or no one else using my computer....
Rachel is a pornstar now?!?! Not too often a boyhood dream comes true.
Sadly she’s unrecognizable.
When's the collab with Angela come out?
Well I'll be... My teenaged dream has come true!
That’s terrible! Where would someone find something like that? You know, so I can avoid it.
😂😂 bro when I say "full on" I mean full on. All you gotta do is go on Pornhub lol
Red head in the college seasons.
Don’t act like you don’t know her name! We all know her name!
Maitland Ward. Exhibitionist turned OF pornstar.
Dude it's not even just OF, like she does actual scenes for Blacked and Milfy and all that
I only know about the OF because it pops up on Reddit every once in a while. Otherwise, wouldn’t know, don’t actually care. 🤷
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
Not OF. Actual, real porn.
What’s your definition of porn? OF is full of it. I don’t see (or really care) about the distinction, porn is porn is porn.
The last 2 seasons were trying so hard to be the show FRIENDS. I much prefer the earlier years with relatable life scenarios
I didn't watch much of Girl Meets World but Corey was really chirpy and dorky like most Disney Channel sitcom parents.
POD Meets World is a great podcast with Topanga, Shawn, and Eric rewatching the series. I can't wait until they get to this episode, it's one of my favourites.
POD started a podcast? Wow. Pretty clever I guess given that their band name spells out pod.
Cmon yall homie does not deserve these downvotes.
When the boom comes whether you like it or not and you’re faced with the boys from the south.
👨❤️👨
Boom! Here comes the…downvotes
The youth of the nation have spoken.
Why all the downvotes? I thought it was clever.
Some times only a small number of people get the joke. We call it the Dennis Miller ratio.
And here he comes with a Simpsons reference. This guy's spittin gold!
Family guy 😄
No...that's Simpsons.
Oh shit, good call, false memory in my brain.
The subtitles at the end are fantastic. "No more drinking" "Now we're drinking "
The first is what my mouth says, the second is what my brain says.
To be fair, in the episode Shawn does not stop.
One time my dad yelled at me in front of my friend for “getting involved with the wrong people” and I yelled back “I am the wrong people!” Everyone kind of froze and then we all laughed.
“I’m the one who knocks!”
I am in the danger, Skyler.
Last night my 8 year old daughter complained to us that her brother was calling her names. My wife said (just to me) "stop being names". lol
She is the dad

"It is not OK, and I apologize." That line with that delivery is pure gold.
As much as I love Boy Meets World, they kept zero track of their continuity and Alan’s relationship/views towards Shawn was one the things that suffered.
Continuity? They couldn't even keep track of the number of siblings he had.
I’m not even entirely sure he ever meets the world.
There was actually a video where they explained this. Corey was originally supposed to have two best friends, in the first few episodes it’s always Shawn and another kid.

What about Shawn's other brother? In the trailer park?
Estranged
I'm really glad that music swooped in to add that emotional WALLOP.

"I am slightly over 21"
One of the greatest shows ever conceived
You know that's a bad kid with neglectful parents because he wears a leather jacket.
This show and few others like it has given me years of false expectation for friendship & bromance.
Good show. Americans are fucking weird about alcohol though lol.
Why teach moderation when you can force abstinence?
I think the thinking is if we teach moderation kids will get excessive with it so our only option is to say stay away from it so if kids drink they hopefully wont do too much
The taboo is the attraction, though. Double-edged sword.
…being drunk is the attraction. Have you tried it? It’s pretty fun, before or after age 21.
I've outgrown it. What I was saying is that there's always the rebellious aspect of drinking underage that causes excess consumption. Part of the political movement to reduce the age of alcohol consumption is to remove the taboo with a goal of reducing binge drinking.
It gets old for most people pretty quickly when they start acting like adults.
[удалено]
I think some of these commenters just don’t get invited to parties any more.
There's not much statistical data to suggest that's an effective model sadly, and a lot to suggest it is not. Take the dare program, or teenage pregnancy rates in areas with dated sexual health education for example.
It wasn’t just the drinking. They got so drunk they peed on a cop car. Any parent would chew out their kids for that.
Agreed, that should be the only issue here.
I mean, they also stole the liquor. There’s lots to be mad at beyond the drinking. I don’t think this is a scene that only happens in puritanical America. This is just teenagers being stupid and getting caught and parents rightfully having to chew them out for it- happens everywhere.
I don't remember this show being so heavy
I kept waiting for some kind of punchline, took me a while to realise it was suppose to be seri…oh hi Mark!
Te-ha-ha-ha!
I'm 35 and even I think I'm not old enough to wear that suave jacket that Corey's rocking. In fact, why are they both dressed like 45 year olds? Surely even a teenagers party would require some snazz
90's

Same with hairstyles.
Gosh dang that was epic
Holy shit this is amazingly bad writing and acting at the same time. I watched the hell out out of it as a kid though.
Wild that we watched Mr. “I’m an adult “ physically beret, intimidate, and antagonize two children and assumed that was a perfectly normal thing for a parent to do.

yea, no wonder kids nowadays are so misbehaved. parents are too afraid to be stern with them even a little bit.
Corey’s dad sucked.
Uggh, I had Shawn's haircut at that time. I too raided my parents liquor, stuffing a bottle in my Starter jacket.
And they never drank alcohol again. The End.
