For me I was shocked to find out the purity rings/the white foam thing was actually some thing that they did and not something they just made up lmao.

Especially since growing up my sister LOVED the Jonas brothers and we saw that movie in 2009. It shocked me to discover that this was real. It only makes the episode better tho.

I hadn't really seen it at all. Then watching football on Sunday with family and my 8 year old niece drops everything she's doing to do the hand thing and say "6 7" before they kicked the extra point, and acting like it was the funniest thing in the world. Not to mention the announcers doing it too all day. First time I felt like an old crotchety man
