2, 3 & 4 are examples of what's called "Mar-a-lago face" - really blatant plastic surgery to emphasize your ability to afford plastic surgery.
Elites frequently engage in body-modification intense enough to look grotesque to others as a way of marking their status. Mayan and Hunnic cranial deformation and Chinese foot-binding are prominent other examples.
People, please watch. It's hilarious.
Holy crap - that was brilliant, and Amber’s over-the-top reactions were just the cream on top! 👌🏼
I'm pretty sure Marge was just born with that face, but I get what you mean
You're right. Samsquanches need powerful masculine jaws in order to crack bones and suck marrow.
I was thinking 18th century over the top make-up, corsets and absurd wigs.
I have no idea if you're being serious.
I have no idea if you're being serious.
Tbh I struggle with that myself sometimes.
But mar-a-lago face is a real thing and while the first instinct is to recoil in horror at what these people have done to themselves, elites have a long history of this kind of extreme identity signalling. And I do think this phenomenon is best understood as part of that tradition.
That looks like an extension of the handicap principle, which is quite blindly accepted (like the alpha males thing) but has not a lot of evidence.
There is some real signaling that looks kinda handicappy, like the ancient Chinese growing long fingernails: at first sight it was detrimental to their ability to do manual work. But it actually isn't because they didn't need to do manual work. That's different in my opinion from botching one's face, as they see the procedures as an improvement over the alternative of looking their actual age. They are fleeing from the wrinkles, and that face is a consequence, not a goal.
that face is a consequence, not a goal.
My understanding is that it is a goal. It's not just a botched face job or over use of botox. People walk in and ask for a face like that.
I used to call it real-housewife-face, because that seemed to be where the desire to do this to themselves started.
But is does seem to overlap a lot with visitors or wanna be visitors to that Nazi bar down in Florida.
God the orokin from warframe are getting more and more plausible as an outcome for humanity. (They can transfer their souls into new bodies, and eventually became masters of genetic engineering, making theselves fancy ugly af bodies for fashion purposes. Notably, blue skin, very tall and large, with a freakishly long right arm)
Always fun to see Warframe referenced in the wild. Thought about this too.
First thing I thought of
Cultural Kakistocracy
Ron Perlcat is amazing if real.
Looks like a Maine Coon. Probably real. source: had a Maine Coon.
Pretty sure he's a Maine Coon, it seems like that's a trait of that breed to have a face structure like that!
6 looks more like Ron Perlman than Ron Perlman does.
Why is MTG on there 3 times?
How DARE you? 1 and 6 don't deserve the comparison.
I had to include the cat just as a little bit of eyebleach honestly.
War... War never changes.
Facial expression... Facial expression never changes.
#1 takes me way, way back
Yep,
90s TV didn't seem that long ago...
What the heck was he in?
Never mind, I just googled the wrong Perlman long hair movie and it was the beauty and the beast show
Cat
6
2, 3, 4 & 5 are the horses that the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse will ride to usher in the End Times
I have no idea who #3 is.
The answer is looming over you
She’s only 32. Looks like some serial killer flesh mask. She a disgusting human inside and out.
Fun fact! The kid in the MAGA hat is in a concentration camp.
(I have zero idea who either of these people are, but I think the odds I'm still correct are in my favour)
Laura Loomer. It was late when I was making this and they all kinda look the same. I had to go back and makes sure 2 and 4 weren't the same person accidentally.
Inspiration for the mask of Jigsaw.
I wonder how many times Donny has banged #4. 🤮
Who is #6 ?
Tuna P. Beantoehausenerlenmeyer-Graham, a Main Coon cat said to be the most ronperlmanesque Main Coon cat thus far discovered.
Nya nya
I feel seen and heard rn
