Alright Joe Kinnear.

Ronnie Biggs medicine? That makes even less sense!

(I know)

Here’s a “joke” I don’t get (still Christmas themed though) - in Home Alone, why does Kevin scream when he puts on the aftershave? They even repeat this skit and I’m still none the wiser.

Putting aftershave on a freshly shaven face burns.

I LOVE Home Alone and have no desire to ruin it.

He hasn’t shaved though?

Oh right. Probably just an attention seeking prick, then.

This joke we call life

It is, really. One of the best bits of Home Alone is how meticulous the plot is and its clockwork logic. (There is a gaff when Heather miscounts the kids at the beginning by counting herself twice but that was apparently an editing error).

Aftershave also stings very sensitive skin. Children have much more sensitive skin, especially on their faces than adults. Hence, the screams of pain.

So he’s pretending that it stings?

maybe he had a small cut or something on his face

The TV, to this day - after numerous attempts at explaining the joke to her - still doesn’t get :

What do donkeys at Blackpool beach get for their lunch?

Half an hour.
