About

Reddit Is Down the Hall and to the Left is an image macro of Donald Trump providing directions to Kevin McCallister (portrayed by Macaulay Culkin) in the 1992 film Home Alone 2. Online, the macro has often been used as a reaction to Redditor behavior and is commonly recaptioned in variant memes to replace "Reddit" with different places and things.

Origin

On November 15th, 1992, the comedy film Home Alone 2: Lost in New York premiered in the United States.[1] In one scene of the movie, the main character Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) asks Donald Trump, who has a cameo role in the film, for directions inside The Plaza Hotel.

- Excuse me, where is the lobby?
- Down the hall and to the left.

Prior to August 21st, 2015, an unknown user captioned a still image of Trump providing directions "Reddit is down the hall and to the left" (shown below). While the image was likely first posted and used on 4chan or iFunny, the earliest found repost was made by Imgur[2] user chaser66 on August 21st, 2015. On October 15th, Know Your Meme[3] user AugustDay archived the image on the site.
