After a revival of bean related shitposts, someone suggested Dean related shitposts, which caused people to post a lot of pictures and gifs of the Dean Pelton character from the television show Community.

In season 3 of that show, there's a whole plot where one of the characters tries to secretly replace the Dean with a lookalike (in the show they alternate between calling it a doppledeaner or deanelganger), who is found through a celebrity impersonator service, as a Moby impersonator. A picture of the fake Dean has been posted here.

So this picture of actual Moby is a continuation of that line, that evolution of these shitposts.

It's Beck. And Beck looks like Dean.

Can't tell if this is a joke, but it's Moby not Beck.

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This is a joke and it's Rivers Cuomo, not Moby

This also a joke because it is Randy Blithe of Lamb if God.

[–] voidsignal@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Moby is a musician. There other two however...

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

IDK about Dean but Beck and Moby are music nerds from the 90s

[–] lovely_reader@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
