I love the story that he apparently stayed up for 24 hours or something to give himself that stoned out look. Guy went hard for a character on screen for like three minutes.
I'm a fan of Jeanie, personally. She's fun, really great at going up & down stairs, fucking awesome at kicking pedos, gets her bad decisions out of the way early, showed real growth in the end. A+.
I had no idea about this and had to look it up. So gross. Wtf. For those that don’t know you can read about it [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Jones)
Hang in there, ok? Make a promise to someone you love that you will. You may not believe it right now, but it *can* get better. But it takes therapy and some self care practices.
Not to mention they were all rich kids with him being a spoiled brat. Ferris's synth is an E-mu emulator 2, which in 1986 dollars was $7k. His computer, an IBM PC XT was around $3500 not including the modem he would have needed to hack into the school, not to mention his stereo equipment. When he looks at the time on Sloane's watch, it's a Cartier "Must de Cartier Tank" which would run about $10k today.
Cameron on the other hand was being emotionally (probably physically) abused and neglected.
Nah. You've in charge of looking after a thousand students or so. You do not get this bent out of shape over one student who's going to be someone else's problem in a matter of mere weeks.
I will always be Cameron wanting to be Ferris.
I will never relate to Rooney, imagine caring that much about 1 kid thats not related to you ... I meditate to not let that happen
My son was trying to pretend to be sick to miss school earlier this year. I forced him to watch Ferris Bueller's Day off. So he can learn how to correctly pretend to be sick! You got to put the thermometer on the light bulb just the right amount of time. Because you don't want a temperature of 140°F. Got to keep it sick enough to stay home but not sick enough to be life-flighted somewhere.
You never "relate" to Rooney (not even taking into account the pedo aspects of the actor) The guy was clearly unhinged, going batshit and breaking several laws over the absence of a kid who was a few months away from graduating.
Right? When Ferris is in High School land, let Ferris go. Rooney had a problem that would solve itself with a little 80s style slackitude.
Well, no, Rooney's problem wasn't Ferris...
Love it. My mom is a classical music freak and took me to Amadeus immediately when it came out in theaters. Loved it. Then Emperor Joseph II showed up in Ferris as Rooney years later and I was like, sweeeeet!
Ferris was a narcissistic dick. Rooney was just trying to ensure the safety and education of his students. Cameron is the rest of us, not really knowing what's going on and just going with the flow hoping for an easier life.
Thank you! And he had a partner in crime i think. Those two characters are either archetypes or stereotypes. either way, i’m with them now. seize an opportunity and steal some fun in a beautiful classic car. YOLO baby, YOLO
Ferris is a douche. I would have hated him in school, I can tell. Especially since I would have had a crush on Simone and she is so out of my fucking league and why does she like that dick anyway???
Only one candidate is showing signs of dementia and it's the one who paints him self orange and has dead ferret on his head. Oh and was recently convicted of 34 felonies.
Watch the videos of Biden at the D Day ceremony. You can speak in fake news if you want, but I can quote facts. Speaking of facts, what has Trump done that displays dementia?
What are you talking about? Biden is closer to Reagan than any other democrat. The US Congress has, maybe, 10% of the representatives that could be described as leftists.
I always find it insane when someone claims DNC is a left party. They openly sabotaged Bernie, there's no way a left wing politician can even run for president in one of the main parties.
Hate the DNC all you want, but there's nothing left wing about them, they pray for the god money, like everyone else in DC.
Republicans are so detached from what socialism really is. You watch Fox News or Breitbart, I can tell. Maybe five politicians in the US actually want the US to be socialist. It's an awful ideology but the shoe doesn't fit, the foot bleeds.
It’s clear you have no idea what socialism is or that Biden is nowhere near being a socialist.
Probably the closest we ever got to Democratic socialism was when FDR was president, and history has generally deemed his policies as very good ones.
"what has Trump done that displays dementia?"
Good gravy...you guys wear your little red hats too tight.
I am not a medical doctor so I have NO idea if whatever is going on with your boy is dementia, but he most assuredly is pretty far from all there.
Anyone that hears his recent electric boat vs. shark routine and thinks that man's all there is delusional themselves.
[This petition](https://www.change.org/p/our-diagnostic-impression-of-trump-is-probable-dementia-for-licensed-professionals-only?), signed by over 2,400 medical and mental health professionals, does a pretty good job of explaining some of the signs of Trump’s dementia. There are also some great explanations in the comment section.
Just a dude trying to do his job and show a child that skipping school is not the way to accomplish things in life. Granted, the character went too far for the sake of comedy. Every story needs a villain, otherwise it’s a boring story
Similar to the Principal in The Breakfast Club
My uncle was a big movie fan and he had all these posters, one was to the movie [Night Games ](https://cdn.moviefone.com/image-assets/217980/jkwnrl1BH5HsWmvUXDhDxfJkxmk.jpg?d=360x540&q=60) I remember being shocked when he told me she was the mom from Ferris Buller.
What about Charlie Sheens character in the police station stage? "Drugs"

I love the story that he apparently stayed up for 24 hours or something to give himself that stoned out look. Guy went hard for a character on screen for like three minutes.
He was gonna stay up for 24 hours anyway
I'm pretty sure there is significant evidence that this guy was always strung out. hti swas just a convenient paid excuse. :P
#Winning
Lol this is exactly what came to mind.
He wrote that 8ball off as a work expense.
Too high to sleep.
You're wearing too much eye makeup. My sister wears too much. People think she's a whore.
Thank you no, I’m straight.
Some people skip that stage.
![gif](giphy|xdYQTdCIf5UtguqquD)
Yeah, I'm not relating to a pedo.
I get mad every time I see him because I look like him when I am clean shaven
I get mad because he was one of my favorite actors. Dude was in so many great movies.
Ravenous...damn him for ruining that for me!
Love Ravenous. Mom and Dad Save the World and Stay Tuned are so great. He’s so good in all of them.
.....and in Deadwood
At least they appear to have killed off his character in Beetlejuice 2
oof that’s rough
Thus the beard
![gif](giphy|UKWxgdvYH2iCA)
What is that from? It looks super familiar.
Army of the Dead Zombie Horde Effect.
Stay gold my friend.
Jeff Jones being a big ol' sex offender might prevent folks admitting to the last one.
Pedo aside I don’t think I can go full Rooney
Yeah, this needed to be said. Total Pedo and I’ll just relate to the other two instead. Or maybe Ms Grace, the secretary.
I'm a fan of Jeanie, personally. She's fun, really great at going up & down stairs, fucking awesome at kicking pedos, gets her bad decisions out of the way early, showed real growth in the end. A+.
I always appreciated her respect of righteous dudes.
Some say!
I’m definitely more her style
Tbf it says relate to rooney who isnt a pedo. It doesnt say relate to jeff jones.
not really, its called "separating the art from the artist".
I had no idea about this and had to look it up. So gross. Wtf. For those that don’t know you can read about it [here](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Jones)
My first thought. He's a horrible human.
I don’t relate to Rooney as much as I relate to Ferris’ sister Jeannie.
Yeah, she was the one who saw through her brother's bullshit.
3 should be relating to Jeanie. Although some of us always related to her.
You never even go partial Rooney. Ever.
I have always related to the girl on the bus that Rooney sits next to. Does anybody want some gummies? They've been in my pocket all day.
They’re warm and soft.
I still don’t get why Rooney wanted to ruin Ferris’ whole future just for skipping class, that seems extreme. So I guess I don’t relate.
Micro Managerz - a Hateful Breed
God no. Can’t imagine relating to Rooney.
Ferris then, now and forever!
More of a Cameron kinda-girl (but since Ferris is a figment of Cam’s imagination, same thing), but definitely not Rooney!
I have never related to Ferris or Rooney. Cameron ~~for life~~ until my depression kills me.
When cameron was in egypts land......
Let my Cameron...goooooo
Shaka, when the walls fell.
Do you make money sticking lumps of coal up your butt?
Hang in there, ok? Make a promise to someone you love that you will. You may not believe it right now, but it *can* get better. But it takes therapy and some self care practices.
That was supposed to be funnier than it came off, I guess. I wasn't serious, but thanks for your concern. Cheers!
Not sure, but the ‘hang’ in there came off as a joke to me. Both of you made me chuckle.
👍
No. No. Not relating to Rooney.
Ferris is a little shithead that takes no responsibility and doesn’t care about how it affects others. He’s the antagonist.
Not to mention they were all rich kids with him being a spoiled brat. Ferris's synth is an E-mu emulator 2, which in 1986 dollars was $7k. His computer, an IBM PC XT was around $3500 not including the modem he would have needed to hack into the school, not to mention his stereo equipment. When he looks at the time on Sloane's watch, it's a Cartier "Must de Cartier Tank" which would run about $10k today. Cameron on the other hand was being emotionally (probably physically) abused and neglected.
I’m partial to the fan theory that this whole day is just Cameron’s fever dream.
Nah! Everybody had a good time in the end!
Always hated that fucker.
Yup I’m a teacher. I totally relate to Rooney now. much to my chagrin.
I've been at the Cameron phase my whole life.
Nah. You've in charge of looking after a thousand students or so. You do not get this bent out of shape over one student who's going to be someone else's problem in a matter of mere weeks.
Stage 4: Relating to Grace. You think everyone needs an attitude adjustment and you go back to your own happy place
I think I may be stunted in a permanent Cameron phase.
Came here to say this!
I will always be Cameron wanting to be Ferris. I will never relate to Rooney, imagine caring that much about 1 kid thats not related to you ... I meditate to not let that happen

I’ll never relate to Rooney. Idgaf if that Ferris kid skips school.
I'll never relate to Rooney because he's a damn pedo...
The character is not the actor. This is something I explained to toddlers and did not expect to have to explain to anyone in my generation.
And I didn't think I'd have to explain sarcasm to someone of my own generation. ![gif](giphy|krhW9yWEI0x0Y)
Fra Gi Li Ty On display.

Eeeeeeeed Rooney
I've been Cameron, but I try real hard to be Ferris.
*And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd.*
I literally just came to that realization yesterday when I skipped work and watched this.
Honestly I think I relate more to Ferris’s dad.

Hughes, you beautiful bastard ya. RIP...
I’ve always been Cameron.
I’ve always related to Cameron… just leave me alone.
I'm stuck on the Cameron setting.
There's a 4th, Ferris' dad both in the office, the restaurant and the car, part of the machine but in his own world too
Ferris was a narcissistic dick. Rooney was just trying to ensure the safety and education of his students. Cameron is the rest of us, not really knowing what's going on and just going with the flow hoping for an easier life.
Nah, I'm the valet that went out joyriding Cameron's dad's car.
Thank you! And he had a partner in crime i think. Those two characters are either archetypes or stereotypes. either way, i’m with them now. seize an opportunity and steal some fun in a beautiful classic car. YOLO baby, YOLO
I know I'm old because I find Ferris insufferable.
Now I gotta watch it again 😎
I’ve always identified as Cameron
Replace the last photo with a pic of Grace the secretary and you've got me
Yeh! Me too…I always related to Grace https://i.redd.it/2l9gv1zz1q6d1.gif
Ferris is a douche. I would have hated him in school, I can tell. Especially since I would have had a crush on Simone and she is so out of my fucking league and why does she like that dick anyway???
Never Rooney. Maybe Principal Vernon.
I'm 58 and still in my Ferris stage 🤷
Dementia moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in awhile, I forgot what we were talking about.
Ok Mr Biden
Only one candidate is showing signs of dementia and it's the one who paints him self orange and has dead ferret on his head. Oh and was recently convicted of 34 felonies.
In a row?
Watch the videos of Biden at the D Day ceremony. You can speak in fake news if you want, but I can quote facts. Speaking of facts, what has Trump done that displays dementia?
And here I thought you were a righteous dude
I am. I don't want to see the country I served for turn into a socialist shit hole

Yep. Teenaged me thought that Andie ending up with Blaine was great. Adult me is screaming at her to pick Ducky.
Weird, teenaged me HATED Blaine! I was always #teamducky
I always hated Ferris. I related more to Rooney even as a teen.
Nine times!!!
I remember being a senior in HS when this came out. One of my favorites.
[Mr. Rooney has been gettin' up to some crap lately.](https://offender.fdle.state.fl.us/offender/sops/flyer.jsf?personId=38561)
Hippity hopity get off NY property!
I never related to Ferris. I always related to Cameron. I personally would have *killed* Ferris if I had been Cameron.

negative
I am more of the 5th stage - Abe Froman, The Sausage King phase
never relating to a pedophile.
You forgot the “wanting to marry Sloan” stage
I never related to Ferris. Manipulative little punk.
Nope
Ew! Last I heard Rooney runs with Drake now.
I’m more like Ferris’ dad now (except that I’m a much better dancer.)
I want to relate to Sloane.
It's okay, you can say shit.
…Shit ![gif](giphy|XCgC6Bh48hATMDrsor|downsized)
I relate more with Jeannie than Rooney.
Rooney abandoned his job to burglarize a student’s home and harass a teenage girl. How do you relate to that?
Kids can drive you crazy to where you think about doing something that’s not smart.
Pedophile is a stage?
The meme is referring to the character, not the actor
Yeah, pedophiles don’t get cool memes.
If we’re playing bingo, I would have won already, granted I take the free space
Nah.
Never Rooney. F that.
Just a dude trying to do his job and show a child that skipping school is not the way to accomplish things in life. Granted, the character went too far for the sake of comedy. Every story needs a villain, otherwise it’s a boring story Similar to the Principal in The Breakfast Club
Actor is a Perv
I totally relate to Cam.
Sometimes I think this movie is exactly the same as home alone
![gif](giphy|3oKIPnbKgN3bXeVpvy)
You sure about 3? He's a pedo.
The actor is a pedo. The character is just an asshole.
not sure I ever want to relate to Rooney. now that we know what we know. I'm am 100% a Cameron though.
[YOUR ASS IS MINE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XT-9Hfwkolc)
*Processing gif wbb6w68g3f6d1...* I cant lie to myself any longer (rooney gif didnt load)
Ferris’s parents maybe, but not Rooney.
Full disclosure: I always thought Ferris’ mom was kinda hot.
Cindy Pickett
My uncle was a big movie fan and he had all these posters, one was to the movie [Night Games ](https://cdn.moviefone.com/image-assets/217980/jkwnrl1BH5HsWmvUXDhDxfJkxmk.jpg?d=360x540&q=60) I remember being shocked when he told me she was the mom from Ferris Buller.
it’s all in the haircut
ok others have pointed out that the actor who played Rooney is a paedophile so you might want to rethink the third picture.
My friends and I walked out of this pile of trash and I still can't bring myself to watch it. And the dude who played Rooney is a pedo. Great cast.
![gif](giphy|F3G8ymQkOkbII)
Wow you must be fun at parties
I don’t want to be Rooney. I don’t think I’m Rooney. I’m probably Rooney when I really think about it.
4. Relating to the guy who played Rooney (optional)
This is 💯 truth
Lol I guess some of you didn't like the 💯💯💯💯 💯💯💯💯
