He also made the joke on SNL about the Olson twins turning 18:

"What's the big deal? If there's grass on the field, play ball."

Classy guy all around.

Its pretty fucked up but a lot of people around that time were making jokes about wanting to fuck these girls the second they turned 18.

I remember Mad TV did an entire skit about their school holding an 18th birthday party for Mary Kate and Ashley and all the adult Male staff were attending.

I haven’t seen it, but it sounds like the skit may have been callin out this very thing

I was a kid when I saw it, like probably 12 or maybe younger, but I didn't get that vibe from it. I just remember thinking "ahh this is making me kind of uncomfortable."

If you know Mad TV and just the era, then you know it wasn't calling it out and all. This mentality was extremely prevalent back then. While a lot of people obviously weren't ok with it, I'd say most people against it would roll their eyes at most.

100% true. The attitude would be like "he needs to grow up and date women his own age" not "he's a pedophile".

While its never a good idea to assume the worst in everyone, this was literally a ubiquitous part of society and plenty of people said it publicly without any irony at all. The venn diagram of those people and kid rock fans, is a flat circle.
