Let's throw back to the 80s.

I too like to enjoy a nice cool refreshing cup of Ç̷̨̯̯͇̱͎͙̞̩̹̇̎̽͐͐͊͜ͅö̶͔̓c̷͎̈́̆̇̎̊̀͌̐̍̃̉̊̊͘ͅa̵̢͗́̑̓́̈́̆͑ ̵̡͖͍͈̺̹̗͈̙̺̍͋̍C̵̨͔͓̺͈̘͛͒̎̀ô̸̢͔̪̰̰̣̝̭̤̪͓̘̓̓͜ľ̸͓̦͚̼̮̗͍̫̥̮͖̪͆̑̅̈́̃̀͛a̸̧͙̝͍̫͉̱̬̝̯͍̩̙̾̾̓̆̾̊̕͜

AI. 🙄

Also how that guy's hand in the back is phased through the table. Maybe he's drinking his fries as well?

Whatever, I just want that fryshake.
- Gotta love Moldani
Don't worry about the hand thing, that's just what the tables are like at McDlidani
You know a million photos like this were actually taken in the 80s though.
- So why didn't you post one of those?

A jean vest with integrated t-shirt arms is the perfect stealth garment, button up the vest and no one will know, unbutton and it's party time!

The mullet of upper body garments
I think its an open shirt with denim vest panels- if you look, the t-shirt extends below the vest. As we are all aware, what we really need to know about is just under the table (does the t-shirt only part have buttons??)
- Since it's AI. There's nothing under the table
- The lower part does lend credence to those proclaiming this to be one of the deepest of V-cuts...

This is just a photo taken today in Australia.

I thought cigarettes were like $40 a pack there.
- The man in the picture is a billionaire. You can tell by the price of his mustache.
Where in Australia can you smoke inside a restaurant?
- The Yabba.

Where did the shirt go?

Looong looong hand!

You know what they say about men with long hands 😉
- They have long fingers?

I... I just can't with this picture.

There's simply too much here, and I can't believe this isn't a meticulously crafted caricature of life 40 years ago.

Edit: I'm an idiot and this is AI generated to the max.

This man's t-shirt makes zero sense
The logo on the cup
The logo on the cup in the stall behind him
The florentine in the stall behind him
The "chair" the man in the back is leaning on
Who puts a straw in their fries?
Faceless people in the background
Seats on the booth in the back make zero sense

- Bones, either your prompt editing is getting better or you're being a lot more choosy about what to post. This is way better than the other one.
  Window glare is inconsistent with shadows on subject, kid, tree
  Maybe that's a hand, or maybe dad lost some fingers somewhere
  Chimney held up by some dubious looking carpentry
  Grass is too green under an oak of that size, IMO. Bark is also kind of inconsistent.
  Red spots on trunk that read like a scanner photosensor getting blown out due to glare from white areas on a photo print. But no part of a tree trunk is that white, and there are no other artifacts, like where we see glare on the window.
  The front-door delete is actually not the weirdest part. I can see someone actually doing this. It's just not likely.
But most importantly: what spell is he casting with that burger? Anything but eating it.

I think the sign in the back says, "MODLIDARI"

Anagram for "I RAM DILDO".
Modlidani (though could be mudlidani). I guess either of the "I"s could be "T"s, but that would probably be rare for at least the first one.

AI bullshit.

Dude in the backs hand
- And it says "MOLIDANI" on the McDonald's sign

MODLIDANI

Was always my favourite place to grab a burglidaner

In the 1980s, that was an extra large soft drink.

That dude's got a fuckin IROC in the parking lot with the mufflers off, idling away while blasting White Snake

What do you prompt an AI with to get this? XD

80s dadbod
- He's hot!

That's the J TO THA R-O-C in the background. Knowhatimsayin dawg?

Knomasayin?
- thats too many knomasayins

Look at the caterpillars on that dude in the back. He makes Eugene Levy's brows look like tiny!

The 80's look like humanity was invaded by a parasitic caterpillar species.

He's hiding his burger because he has two just for him 🤫

I saw this guy yesterday, just without the cigarette.

Or the super size fries. Shit would cost $10 nowadays.
- McDonald's and Jack in the Box have seriously been wildin' with their prices lately. If I wanted to pay $20 for a meal, I'd go to a sit down restaurant.

Wonder how much he paid for all that compared to now?

5 bucks. I recall well.
- That still seems expensive

Let’s throw up in the 80’s

People saying this is AI, I'm intrigued by the fact that I can't tell if it is or not, and I'm hoping this leads to a world where we stop paying attention to photos and videos over time, sure there's legal repercussions and whatnot both good and bad, but maybe we start valuing human interactions more. I don't think I'm expressing my thoughts well enough, but it could be that AI when it's more developed could lead us to assuming it's all fake and not caring about the online world so much.

How can you not tell? Man's hand is clipping into things, no tshirt is that low cut, his magic cigarette isn't lit and that is certainly not how you spell Coca Cola.
All of those things are immediately noticeable, they jump out at you, but there's probably a billion other tells that it's AI once you stop to process it.
- Modlidani
- The answer to your question is in the last part of your comment, once you stop to process it So people literally look at pictures as a whole for just a second or two and only notice one or two key details, like human faces and then either move on (especially on social media)
  I think most people are still not used to thinking pictures might be AI generated especially when the face, the first thing we generally focus on, looks pretty solid. AI is getting better and it's hard to keep up.
  The straw sticking out of the fries was what got me tho :P
You just can't even understand a T-shirt.

People used to be cool as fuck.

Can't imagine people looking back on anything post 2000 and saying people looked cool. "Wow you used to have the tightest skinny jeans so cool"

"wow socks and sandles. Amazing"

"t shirt with a hoodie over the top! Everyone dressed so well back then!"

I agree! I looked fine as fuck in my high school grad two piece with white lace. In 1992
- Post a photo of cool you in 1992!

The smoke coming from the unlit cigarette lol

Question: where is the astray?

As someone born in the 80's.... Where wasn't the ashtray! They were embedded into everything!
- I clearly recall that McDonalds had these disposable thin-foil-metal trays with a company logo on 'em. But they had a habit of wandering off, and were never evenly distributed to all the tables in the dining room. I have no idea about the glass ones in the image search above.
  Edit: looks like the paper water cup is the ashtray for this gentleman's meal.
  Edit2: I had a big dumb and this is not real. Carry on.
- Probably the coffee cup.

This is a beautiful time capsule. Thank you for sharing

Sorry, but that's AI generated shit.
