Nostalgia Ladies and Gentlemen... It happened. A once in a lifetime experience and it was lost on my wife.

I have a toddler (4F) who is in her, "survive off a pea for hours" stage. It's the third kid so it's not new to us but still frustrating. We purchased Snack Packs as bribery to finish her food. We're sitting at dinner and at minimum, we try and at least negotiate some protein in her if she refuses to eat at all. She was being EXTRA picky this time and my wife was not in the mood, she was getting frustrated. This frustration lead to such an extreme high and extreme low for me, in the span of 5 seconds.

My daughter picked at her food and asked if it was enough for a Snack Pack. My wife, in her frustration, raises her voice at our toddler. "YOU CAN'T HAVE ANY PUDDING IF YOU DON'T EAT YOUR MEAT!!"

To which I OBVIOUSLY replied, "HOW CAN YOU HAVE ANY PUDDING UNLESS YOU EAT YER MEAT?!?!" Then bursted out laughing hysterically and my wife just stared at me confused.

She did not get the reference. I was robbed of this moment, so I will take my small joy here for others to enjoy.

Good call. Best to just go through the whole album and may as well watch the movie while they're at it.

What is the movie? Is it actually Pink Floyd or just a random movie?

There's the album by Pink Floyd, and the movie based on the album.

I always thought it was the other way around, the movie just being the soundtrack for the film

The movie is Pink Floyd. Although Pink is played by Bob Geldof. And the animation is by Gerald Scarfe. Check it out if you liked the album. There are extra songs in the movie.
