I can’t debate it

This needs a Hide The Pain Harold faceswap.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 146 points 4 hours ago (5 children)

this image is photoshopped. i can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time.

[–] Janx@piefed.social 44 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

That's correct. I checked with David Photoshop and he confirmed it.

[–] dditty@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

The amount of photoshops has also dramatically increased since 1970s

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Hey, does he know John Reader and Jeff Lightroom?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

There is something about his face that doesn't look natural but I'm not quite sure if it's Photoshop or AI

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 3 points 57 minutes ago

Its resting DOOM face

[–] dditty@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 hours ago

I see it too but it's a little bit blurry on the details

[–] pleb_maximus@piefed.zip 31 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Ah, a person of culture I see.

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 hour ago

shoop da whoop

[–] Dr_Fetus_Jackson@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago

Now that's a meme I've not heard on a long time.

[–] Triumph@fedia.io 6 points 3 hours ago

It's an old meme, sir, but it checks out.

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 43 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (2 children)

I bet he thinks ice cream is correlated with the violent crime too

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 2 points 15 minutes ago

I like the Nic Cage movies and drowning deaths correlation more. Lol

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 18 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

Violent crime precedes ice cream consumption. Clearly crime makes people hungry for ice cream.

[–] Zidane@lemmy.ca 2 points 40 minutes ago (1 children)

I always violent crime before I ice cream

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 1 points 4 minutes ago

Due to the cost of icecream these days you may have to do some violent crime to pay for the icecream

You scream, I scream?

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 hours ago

While I do not disagree with you, we shouldn't underestimate the consumption of stolen ice cream which increases both.

How are people not seeing the joke

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 56 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

That "teacher" has interpretation, extrapolation, and interpolation issues.

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 21 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

its just an AI meme anyways

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 28 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

It's like people forgot Photoshop exists

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world -1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

That does happen often, but this is an AI image, not photoshop

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 2 points 51 minutes ago

I'll bite. How is it AI?

[–] kylie_kraft@lemmy.world 40 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I don't know that it's AI, but the graph is obviously drawn over the picture. I think the original was just making of the professor for wearing a t-shirt over a flannel shirt

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 6 points 4 hours ago

I lowkey don't think it looks bad. Clearly I have just as little fashion sense as he does.

[–] voxthefox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Probably trying to make a point that correlation and causation are not always related.

[–] nailingjello@piefed.zip 18 points 4 hours ago

Yep. The image is fake, but the graph by itself is an excellent example that correlation does not equal causation.

[–] bajabound@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Looks like something for dataisbeautiful

[–] Kwiila@slrpnk.net 16 points 4 hours ago

It's a round about way of expressing that correlation does not imply causation. It was done so that everytime someone shares this meme of a guy wearing a T-shirt over his flannel, someone in the audience can explain that the graphs intentionally represent a fallacy.

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 16 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Even though you could argue the graphs are right, that still does not mean the variables are related in some way.

[–] crank0271@lemmy.world 8 points 4 hours ago

Line go up πŸ“ˆ But also sometimes line go down πŸ“‰

[–] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works -3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

He's wearing proof he's a fucking dick.

[–] stepan@lemmy.cafe 7 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

You mean he doesn't have a crippling case of facial obscuring naturally??

[–] Lirton@lemmy.today 1 points 1 hour ago

Looks more like MS Paint to me, but can be wrong.
