# Shiiiiiit man
Breakdown: There is a film called the Hudsucker Proxy by the Coehn Brothers. In which the main character invents the Hula Hoop. The first post of this picture is a copy of the design of the Hula Hoop which he touts around to the everyone with the strap line of 'you know, for kids'. After a meteoric rise to the top and even quicker fall back down again he then invents the Frisbee, and uses the same design to explain to the viewer he new idea with the same explanation of 'you know....for kids', hence me reposting someone else's picture.

There's an irony in here somewhere about the main character's genius not being understood, people pretending to understand and my post not being understood either.

Now that the comedy has been sufficiently snuffed out, I'll move on.

# I think most people get the hula hoop/ frisbee presentation aspect
But wouldn't the joke have made more sense if it was the same person posting it, like in the film?
Edit: or at least link to the same "presentation" (image)
