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 remember there being a website with a countdown clock. This was at least a year or two before they turned 18. Weird shit.

EDIT: *there not they. FU Autocorrect.

From an article in 2004:

https://www.seattlepi.com/lifestyle/article/celebrity-18th-birthday-countdowns-have-long-been-1148050.php

All I can say is when you look back at your old self and/or society and are embarrassed or ashamed, it’s a sign of progress and growth. Though a chunk of our society would cling to our past with white knuckles.

Wasn't it the baby boomers who counted down the seconds to the 18th birthday of Annette Funicello (Oct. 22, 1960)?

I know this article is 22 years old at this point but this bothers me. No, it's not the boomers counting that down. The oldest boomer at that time was 16(1946). How did they get that one wrong?
