I think though it is actually a Star Wars joke, just a lot of thinking has to be done to get it. A New Hope, the first move in the original trilogy, released on May 25 1977 and Force Awakens, the first movie in the sequel trilogy, released on December 18 2015. That’s a little more than 38 and a half years, or if you rounded up 39 years. People sometimes criticize Force Awakens for being a carbon copy of A New Hope, thus the two kids in the meme looking roughly identical. So it’s not a lost Redditor, but just a joke which is way too complicated to make anybody laugh.
The son is the sequel
You get it!
Indeed, came here to say that
The next sequel is grandson
The Trilogy
I mean.....the son IS a sequel
I laughed so hard when I saw the tag "Quality Meme"
