They can’t even convince themselves that they’re smart.

    1. Any time someone says “this bad thing didn’t happen when I was a kid”, it was because “the bad thing” was frequently hidden.

      Also, there were children’s hospitals back then, what a dumbass.

    2. Shout out to Texas Children’s Hospital for helping me through a rather bad case of pneumonia back in the early 90s. Just one of the many kids who went there since it opened in 1954.

    3. It’s impressive how Rob Schneider continues to become more and more of a dipshit as time goes on

    4. St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital (probably the most famous) was founded the year before he was born. Also, he’s from San Francisco so you’d think he’d be aware of Children’s Hospital Oakland which opened in the 1880s.

      I think he just doesn’t know what he’s talking about. lol

      In 1922, scientists entered a ward full of children in diabetic comas, injecting them with a new drug called insulin as families grieved, saying goodbye. Before they’d injected the last child, the first woke up. Children’s hospitals have been saving lives for over a hundred years

    6. Rob Schneider could save his comedy career if he just poised all this shit as satire instead of whole-heartedly believing it

    7. The first children’s hospital, according to a quick google, opened in 1802 in France. The first in the United States opened in 1855.

      TIL Rob Schneider is over 200 years old.

      I was sitting at the pharmacy and an old timer wanted to talk about how all these kids today are autistic and have allergies, and how it’s either made up or because of the food because that didn’t happen back in his day.

      Sir, they existed, they just died before you met them.

      Luckily no body is looking to Deuce Bigalow for information about children’s hospitals

    10. FYI…
      There were women’s hospitals when Rob Schneider was a kid.

      Because women used to give birth.

      They *still* do, but they used to, too.

    11. Kids being sick (including being deathly sick and dying from all kinds of illnesses) is such a common occurrence in historical literature.

      Wow, I’ve seen a lot of stupid ‘didn’t exist in our day’isms by boomers, but this is by far the most idiotic.

      It’s fucking easy when you dont gotta worry about being correct or somebody fact checking you. They just say whatever and then their supporters parrot it.

      I reviewed this man’s Netflix special (for money) and he says “you can do it” 13 seconds in. He’s trash.

    15. While Rob Schneider was in his early 20’s, I was going to a childrens hospital every week for 2 years. I’m pretty sure they didn’t build it the first day I showed up.

    16. He’s assuming that because he didn’t know about it as a kid, it didn’t exist. Object impermanence

      I need to stop watching 50 First Dates and Big Daddy so this dipshit won’t get any royalties from me.

    18. Outside of pedophile protection, the hard right only has one other play in their playbook, internet outrage. Saying something so stupid or outrageous we get a FUCK YOU THATS STUPID post with 6K comments. If Rob didnt say this, he would be absolutely forgotten, same with Dean Cain, James Woods, Kid Rock, Pillow Guy, etc. We won’t lose this virus until we take the advice of Paul Anka & Lisa Simpson, just don’t look.
