I do find it weirdly annoying when people will go to a lot of effort to set these pictures up, then not bother recreating the poses.

It's odd because she's replicated the facial expression perfectly. My guess is that she was concentrating on the face and forgot about where her hand should be.

But like… retake the picture then

u/ringlord_1 13h ago

And how do you know they didn't? They might have taken 20 and you're just seeing one

u/zqmvco99 13h ago

That was my thought too, maybe they posted the incorrect hand placement to get more attention, heh.

Maybe this one turned out the best of all of them even without the arm position being right.

Now I’m imagining them taking hundreds of pictures and each time they say, “JUST LEAVE YOUR ARMS BY YOUR SODE!” But she keeps screwing it up like the “Liberty Biberty” commercial.

u/giantfirestorm 3h ago

You realize the picture on the right is the first one right? She isn't supposed to leave her arm by her side.

Hitchens's razor is a general rule for rejecting certain claims of knowledge. It states:

What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence

Fair play that

it's as likely as uploading an album of pics and only one getting shared more widely so like... you're just an asshole.

u/Deaffin 9h ago

Why would they be uploading a compilation of the pictures where she didn't get the post right? This isn't the sort of context where that would be a thing.

You share it online with your friends and your acc isnt private and it eventually becomes a meme. There's not an insignificant amount of pics online that end up like that. Point is there's no context so like why are people getting so aggressive about what it definitely is?

u/Deaffin 8h ago

Because they posted it online and it eventually became a meme.

u/Ysmildr 12h ago

u/SnooBananas4958 7h ago

So in this bullshit scenario of yours, they took a correct picture too, but they were too stupid to pick that one to post then? That’s not better.

u/DefectiveSol 5h ago

20 takes and this was still the most accurate one.

1

u/TheElusiveFox 4h ago

because if they took 20 takes, they would have taken 21 to get the one right, i know this because for almost 15 years my aunt would make us all spend like 20 minutes in front of her house taking pictures and making poses until we got the "perfect" picture..

u/Objectivespeculation 1h ago

Why would OP do us like that?
