You fucking Illuminati worshippers. Tom Hanks is a member of the Illuminati and who knows how many murders he has committed, how many children he ate. etc., etc. This is a world where everyone lies and doesn't care what happens to them or anyone else.

Conan's podcast interview brought me here. You'd never imagine Conan was mad at Keith Richards.

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

Tom Hanks is really such a nice guy! 10 years ago I use to drive a school bus route that passed thru his neighborhood in the Pacific Palisades. Every Tuesday morning just around 7:30am, Tom, his wife and their son Colin always stood curbside talking in front of their home. A couple of my students were their next door neighbours. Every time we passed them, we waved at them and they waved back. Usually Tom waved first and that was so awesome!

[@adamemac]

That's awesome! Cool story!

[@QuincyDisneyVegan]

@@candicecantoo92 I'm sorry, but I can't fall for just one person's claims. If there were a group of people making claims against him I'd be more inclined to listen because that's a serious thing to take note of. But the one "Ashcraft" person slandering Tom..... That's not enough for me to jump on the Anti- Tom Hank's bandwagon. I'm sorry! But good luck to you with that

[@kindnessreminder]

Christine and Candice, all of the things you're reading are fake. Isaac Kappy made money by promoting online conspiracy theories using anonymous sites and by posting to get the conspiracy theories to show up on search engines. He did not die near the place where Tom Hanks showed a photo. That is fake info from the anonymous conspiracy theory sites. A random anonymous person made it up and it spread online.

[@jaet4540]

@@Fluxion11 what are you referring to?

[@dHolbach77]

In a world full of so much preventable misery, Hanks rents yachts that cost hundreds of millions for hundreds of thousands per week. (Just one example, let's not even get into his houses--houses plural mind you, as if anyone needs more than one, and one of which recently sold for over 17 million, as if anyone needs more than a 300k house, adjusted for area or cost of living--cars, etc). No decent person does that. You can say "well, he gives such and such amount to causes..." fine, but a decent person would never engage in such grotesque luxury knowing that the same funds can be spent on saving lives and preventing so much misery. He could give probably 99%+ of his personal wealth away and still live a very comfortable upper middle class lifestyle (which is a level of affluence that is more than any person ever needs). But he doesn't, he prefers to live in obscene luxury, hording over 350 million in net worth, in a world of so much preventable pain and that's a huge moral failure. And before you call me a hypocrite, I live well below my (compared to Hanks and other ultra rich) meager means in order to give to causes each year and I've done this since I was a teen and started working; I literally have spent over 250k so far and I'm far from a rich person (total net worth is just 350k including modest house, used cars, and some savings/investments for security in the event of: disability, disease, recession, depression, early retirement etc.) nor am I old (I'm early middle age and I hope to give over 700k by the end of my life to causes which will allow me to live on about 40k a year and keep some money, as mentioned, for emergencies or security). It's what any decent person should do in a world so full of want.

[@KEVMAN7987]

All because Tom Hanks granted them some of his magic, Conan O'Brien & Bob Odenkirk are successful today.

He’s dressed like an 80’s Tony Stark

Contains repeated excerpts (1:43-2:00, 2:14-2:25, 3:30-3:36, 4:04-4:15) from Bernard Herrmann's classic score for the "Twilight Zone" episode "Walking Distance" (S1E5, first broadcast 10/30/59). At least four other SNL sketches between 1984 and 1995 used background music from "The Twilight Zone."

I'd consider this the beginning of the second golden age of SNL where they started to make strides. The small but talented cast was complemented by writers like Bob Odenkirk and Conan O'Brien. Mike Myers would show up in the next year. Season 13-18 were something special.
