idk, but it reminded me of this song which is pretty damn awesome. The movie it comes from is pretty OK too.

Columbia University?

Restaurant from Seinfeld?

TheDuker · November 27, 2019, 5:34am

That’s a winner. Tom’s Restaurant at 112th and Broadway. Also the subject of the Suzanne Vega song “Tom’s Diner”.

Columbia’s a good guess but that’s a couple of blocks further north (starts at 114th iirc).

I had no idea the Seinfeld restaurant was the same place as the Susan Vega song. Mind asplode.

Where is this character from?

microbet · November 27, 2019, 7:38pm

Are people not trying / busy or is it time for a hint?

The Apartment?

It looks like the dude in the background of this pic, but I can’t tell if he’s actually there or some sort of wall poster.:

microbet · November 28, 2019, 1:04am

I don’t believe it is that actor. Anyway, it’s from a TV show.

Trolly · November 28, 2019, 4:24am

It’s from The Twilight Zone, right?

microbet · November 28, 2019, 7:08am

I’m wondering how it could occur to you to ask that question if you didn’t know where that character was from, but yeah, Twilight Zone. But that’s not the answer. Where is that character from, like from what location?

Trolly · November 28, 2019, 4:38pm

lol, there’s a billion TZ episodes, and Ive seen a lot of them. I know I recognize that guy but I got not clue which episode it is.

Trolly · November 30, 2019, 3:01am

If you give me a hint, I bet I can guess the episode without using google. My Twilight Zone knowledge is pretty strong.

smrk4 · November 30, 2019, 4:11am

It’s the Twilight Zone episode where all the old white dudes have nearly the same jaw, chins, nasolabial folds and wear nearly the same hat as the old white dude from The Apartment

Trolly · November 30, 2019, 4:18am

Is “nasolabial” a real word or are you just fucking with me?

smrk4 · November 30, 2019, 4:40am

That seems to be the fancy name for smile lines

microbet · November 30, 2019, 6:25am

Dunno how strong it is if you didn’t get it. You’re not even sure you’ve seen every episode! I’d guess I’ve seen them all more than once.

But hint… the scene was inside a diner.

Trolly · November 30, 2019, 6:47am

You’ve jogged my memory. It’s the one where there’s a bus that gets snowed in at a diner and at the end the diner owner reveals that he is an alien invader and he has a third eye under his diner cap but then the diner patron reveals that he is another alien invader with three arms and it’s like, what’s up now bitch? God, I love that show. TZ just the best sci-fi thing ever. No one today is doing this kind of next-level double-plot-twist sci-fi shit.

microbet · November 30, 2019, 6:48am

So…where is that character from? Not the episode, but the location?

edit: You’ve got the order of reveals backwards. First the 3 armed patron reveals, then the 3 eyed owner.

microbet · November 30, 2019, 6:52am

My older brother and I, who competed about everything, would race to identify which TZ episode (or Star Trek).
