OP can only think of 2 black people, neither of whom look anything like each other.
I'm pretty sure the blatant age disparity is part of the joke, but you can be mad about it if that's what you want to do
The joke is that the OP grabbed pictures of old people with one superficial trait that matches the original characters. Two if they're feeling lucky. Curly hair, a bandanda, effiminate hair (with miss-matched genders), a famous white dude with a vaguely similiar frown.
The blatant everything disparity is the whole joke.
Yes
"mad!?" I was making a joke too! But the fact remains: these two people look nothing alike, which is different from the other pictures...
It was a perfect opportunity for Carl Weathers
collapsed inline media
I think you'll find that that is Dillon, and that he's a son of a bitch!
Clothes don't match in this picture.
Yes! That would have been perfect. A little Carl Weathers, some Stranger Things... baby, you've got a stew going!
I ain't got time to roll for initiative.
I think it's more about finding a picture with similar clothes and hairstyles. The fact that they're obviously not the same people is part of the joke.
I'm pretty sure that Morgan Freeman picture is AI.
I was wondering why people were being so outraged when the outfits are nearly identical. That explains it.
I'm pretty sure all of those pictures are AI
It must be so exhausting being this easily offended over a meme.
No one's offended...
Well, the meme is about stranger things so it would be pretty fucking weird if it was a picture of Octavia Spencer on the left
Edit: Morgan Freeman is a creep though
