I'm putting way to much thought in this, but I am seeing a payphone and no camera, but I'm also seeing an anatomically correct hand and a properly mirrored Champion logo.
Don't think too hard. Just enjoy this smug motherfucker KNOWING he has the shot and the joke.
Ha if you’re hinting at AI this is an elder millennial meme that’s been around for a while.
As an elder millennial myself though, gotta love it. Assuming phones are a thing when my kids are older will def bust this out in 5-10yrs
Yeah, I'm just appreciating the artistry in setting up a shot like this for a domb visual gag. This would have taken actual effort, bravo
Smartphone in his right Hand. Thats why the angle is a bit of.
could also be a picture of them behind a mirror frame being photographed by someone else. photo was mirrored in post-processing.

"This is a collect call from 'HiMomBandPracticeIsOverCanYouPickMeUp' Do you accept the charges?"
That's C-O-L-L-E-C-T
Actually I was pretty lucky because we had a cordless phone for our selfies
Ah, practising your payphone game in the mirror. Those were the days.
Kids nowadays honestly have no idea how much work it was to get a photo then compared to now. We had to go out, buy a roll of film with like 24 photos on it, take the photos without having a clue what they looked like, and knowing we only had a limited amount, then we mailed them off and waited like a week for them to come back. If someone was blinking or your dumbass kid (me) was pulling a stupid face then you were stuck with it.
The flashes were also limited use, and even more expensive than the film.
Wow, I feel like we go back further in time with every comment
My dad had magnesium flash bulbs, but by the time I had a camera they were all electric flashes. It was still film that needed to be developed, but at least there weren't bulbs you had to replace
Oh, and you forgot the next steps if you wanted it on your computer: Find some one with a scanner and copy it to a floppy disk or wait 10-20 minutes to email it.
Digital cameras were a revelation! They removed those stepsSHIT I FORGOT THE DAMN PROPRIETARY DATA TRANSFER CABLE!
That's why you get one that can take a floppy disk.
Remember photo cds?
It never even occurred to me that people may have had to mail them. I live in a fairly small town, and even we had a 24hr photo shop.
