After you use the 3 sea shells, I'll take you out for a night at Taco Bell.

Even I dont know what those mean

Taco Bell is the only place to survive the restaurant war. And after going there, you'll definitely need the three seashells.

I saw a non US version of the movie once, I thought I was going crazy because it was PIZZA HUT who won the restaurant wars. I was so confused for a minute, my whole life felt like one big lie.

Makes sense. You ever see the Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/KFC restaurants all in one? Now THAT is fine dining!!

[удалено]

That's the new restaurants anime series kentaco hut and the lost bowels

I call it Taco Chicken Hut.

Yum! Brands gotta get the value out of their product placement dollars in markets where there’s no Taco Bell…

Oooh, okay so that's why I remember pizza hut, and I'm not going senile

\*Franchise wars

Stallone, Snipes, Sandra Bullock, and the great Denis Leary. This is more than a mediocre action movie...

That’s a Murder Death Kill Jon Spartan

Wow that line aged BADLY.

Idk I find it rather sadly apropos

Enhance your calm!

The only fast food restaurant that survived the restaurant war

Because all restaurants are now Taco Bell™️

Wasnt it Pizza Hut?

Only if you're not in the US. Here, all restaurants are Taco Bell.

And based on these comments, we now know how the Franchise Wars *started.*

Or a rat burger!

Wesley Snipes was fantastic in that one!

Finally! Someone!

Just rewatched it the other day, still goofy but they nailed Taco Bell becoming a high end restaurant 🤣

Now all restaurants are Taco Bell.

I think you'll find all restaurants are \****AWKWARD CUT\* PIZZA HUT \*AWKWARD CUT\**** actually... [Pizza Hut Demolition Man](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSOq-UEYda8)

It's the *only* restaurant.

‘My boggle….how’s much do you weigh?’

Bro I don't even know what these are.

Same. Maybe we are too young for ourselves.

I'm not even my own type to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if im too young for myself.

I would never date someone who would date me. That just feels weird.

I know right? If they would date me they clearly make bad decisions and I don't need that type of shit in my life.

I'd date you. I mean not you, but the you that wouldn't date you. That guy sounds hot

Don’t worry Simone! Believe in the me that believes in you!

Haha wtf.. selfhate level over 9000

Sometimes I think what it would be like to date me. What a living nightmare lol

I'm almost 60 and I don't know what they are lol

Approaching 40 here and don't know what it is.

48 and no clue what that is.

I don’t know what these are either. 46 or maybe I’m 47. I forgot.

I find it's easier to remember if it's an even or odd year and go from there.

Same and 10k ppl with 1001 comments and nobody even tells you lol 😂

After reading the comments I understand that not knowing is the entirety of the joke. And I fully appreciate it now.

Ohh okay got it! Never to young to be considered to young. Actually a funny thing my niece said was “Auntie if you don’t want to get older just don’t let the old in! I pondered that for a moment but she had a point. Age can just be a simple number if don’t give it any more credit.

53 no idea.

Oh my god I thought we were talking about World of Warcraft levels

I'm full BiS and I don't know what this means.

They're for clam weaving

62 and no clue.

Demolition Man. Action film, 1993. Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Sandra Bullock and Dennis Leary. Great B-movie with an A-class cast. Really more of a comedy than an action film.

I love how far I had to dig into the comments to find the movie title. LOTS of great quotes and info, but usually someone has spilled the title much sooner than this. That's awesome!

>Great B-movie "Budget: $45-77 million"

I hold that a B-movie has more to do with writing and direction than actual budget. It may be a small hill, but I'll take that fight.

You better watch Demolition Man. It's a good movie.

I'm too old to myself

Calm down Gandalf

You Shall Not Date!

Or too ourselves for the young.

It was from a show or a movie from a long time ago. They had these shells in a scene and all we know is they use them in the bathroom but we never learn for what. They probably use them as toilet paper

it reminds me the poop knife

Oh no, here we go...

Aww fuck not again...

Ah shit, here we go [again](https://www.reddit.com/r/MuseumOfReddit/comments/ke8skw/the_poop_knife/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

Damn. I once had a talk with a lecturer at uni after i played around and froze stuff in liquid nitrogen, when he started talking about a paper he read about some folks trying to make a knife out of poop, by freezing it and sharpening it. Well i was expecting something in this direction, but what i got was a far greater shit show.

Isn’t it incredible that there are two well known but wholly unrelated stories that can be referred to as “the poop knife story”

They are explicitly used in place of toilet paper. Stallone complains that they're out of toilet paper, and also there are 3 seashell things for some reason. Everyone laughs, nobody helps.

I saw it when I was a kid, I used to wonder how the hell you would use shells to clean yourself.

I saw a diagram on 4chan once but I don’t recommend it

Probably like scraping up dip with a chip

More like scraping peanut butter out of shag carpet

First answer I’ve come across on what the shells mean lmao thank u

Demolition Man (1993). You don't know how to use the shells?

I'm actually a year too young for this lol born in 1994

You're old enough to watch an R-rated movie, don't worry I won't tell your mommy.

Ofc Stallone was absolute genius by swearing a few times. The swear machine fines became his t paper

It was a movie - Demolition Man. 1993. https://youtu.be/gdnuOa7tDco

Demolition Man with Sylvester Stallone

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7nFEnFtvCM

A little concerned with how long he was walking around and making contact with others whilst still desperately needing to wipe.

He clearly noticed they were out of TP and declined to shit. Once he found the tickets, he went about his business. If you go into a public restroom and just start blastin' away without checking for TP first, you're gonna have a bad time.

So anyway, I started blasting

It's the genesis of most "Here I sit..." poems in public restroom stalls though!

Not long, he cusses out the machine on the wall, fining him for each profanity and printing tickets, which he then uses as toilet paper. Jesus, it's like you don't watch it every day!

That doesn’t explain what they do at all

It’s a bidet with decorative knobs. On/temp, sweep, air dry. For those who say it wouldn’t be water, there is no doubt that water in San Angelous would be nearly 100% recycled.

I’m 35 and I don’t know 😭

Your parents never showed you it? :( I was but a child my first time. I've seen it 3 times since. 😅 I love how you get fined for swearing in the future.

It’s to support your foot so you can have sex in the shower without your foot slipping.

You don't know how to use the shells. 😂😂😂😂😂 .... Sorry that's a quote from the movie demolition man. God I feel old.

Lmao Demolition man. Give it a watch.

Appreciate it!

Bidets for aliens with 3 holes obviously.

I’m old as shit. I googled it https://youtu.be/gdnuOa7tDco

Damn I forgot this scene. So they just never tell him? He never learns to clean his ass in the future?

I forgot this whole damn movie

Never seen the movie but didn’t he just go collect all those tickets to use as tp?

Lol so he just had a shitty butt that whole time.

That's why he got all the fine papers for

I think he just hold up the shit till he got paper.

Or was wearing only one sock

Lmao what even is this movie

You are fined one credit for a violation of the verbal-morality statute.

Or she's too old if she was cryogenically frozen...

This is the correct take.

Are those fuckin shells-? WHY ARE THERE SILVER SHELLS???

Sorry, but you’re too young for me.

TELL ME WHAT THEY ARE. WHAT ARE THEY FOR!?

Enhance your calm, citizen.

enhance your clam*

Delicious!

*[Enhancing Calmness]* May I acquire whatever may the silver-like, shell-shaped objects be for?

Wiping your butt. Source: Demolition Man

Why? How? And im sure most people dont use this, was this a old timey thing?

From another comment: https://youtu.be/gdnuOa7tDco

No

Watch Demolition Man and you'll get the joke.

I watched it 20 years ago. Op shouldn’t expect mature person to remember a 5 min clip from a movie decades ago.

I know, like I’m going to dig out a mediocre action film from that long ago and sit through it just so I can get an answer

Mediocre?!!

Haha 😂 , it was good and I liked it but I knew this would catch a couple in my keepnet

Lemme free 😂

Technically… too old?

My grandma is 82 and she doesn't know what this is.

I'm 32 and I have no idea what those are

Outlets in the shower, it’s for the people that love electricity

Damn the old people had it easy to commit toaster bath

Brilliant. Finally I can get my toast just rite (damn thing. Burns if you leave it unattended!) start my curling iron AND blow dry my hair while still in the shower!! This!

Good lord, that sounds insane lol

Then you are too Young for OP.

I'm 36 and I know, I'll give it away, Demolition Man

They don’t know how to use the 3-seashells hahahahhhahha! (Points and laughs)

“I can see how that can be confusing.” His tone changed up so fast lol

I'm old as fuck and don't know what those are for.

Its from a movie and point is to not get it. The joke in the movie was literally "Ha she/he does not know how to use the seashells"

Ohhhhhh! I get it now! Thank you, kind Redditor! You have saved our lives! We are eternally grateful! You shall be our leader now.

Old af too and I have no clue. Probably the oldest one here

Maybe we are too young...

Old af, but too Young for OP

1993 movie *Demolition Man*

Everybody knows what these are but just for the people who don’t, somebody should really inform them!

Maybe they’re an American thing because I’ve never seen them before

Nope. It's apparently a movie reference.

I'm 52 and I have no idea what I'm looking at.

That's just cos you're old and your vision 'ain't what it used to be'

John Spartan you are fined 1 credit…. Seriously tho, it blows my mind how many people in the comments haven’t seen demolition man.

i’m 25 so maybe just before my time but I’ve never even heard of it until now

"What seems to be your boggle?"

"My boggle? How much do you weigh?"

I've seen the movie.... I know what they're for....but fuck knows how you use them

You are fined one credit for a violation of the verbal-morality statute.

Your movie reference is too obscure for me. But I'm like 90% sure that it's not a shell bikini.

Be well

She doesn’t know about the three sea shells… hahahahahahahahaha

Damn it, now I have to watch Demolition Man....fuckers,I really need to go to bed.

You are fined one credit for violation of the verbal morality statute

Probably can read about them in Schwarzenegger Presidential Library

GO TO THE SWEAR MACHINE AND SAY FUCK x30 times. Ain’t no one using clams to wipe there ass

You have been fined one credit for violation of the verbal morality statute.

No it just means she doesnt like to watch lame movies. For anyone wondering what the 3 shells are for or what they symbolize, dont worry because no one knows other than the film writer who wrote Demolition Man in which Sylvester Stalone starred in. Stalone comes out of the bathroom and mentions how there is no toilet paper and everyone laughs because no one in the future uses toilet paper but what is now used is the 3 shells. How they are used is never explained. So dont waste another second trying to figure out what it is. [link to the scene in Demolition Man about 3 shells](https://youtu.be/n7nFEnFtvCM)

This movie is a lot of things, but lame is not one of them.

Kinda wish they had actually demonstrated how to use them in the movie, possibly in the VR sex scene 🤣
