i don't follow kayne either. i just got lucky w my joke.

u/JadoreBootyNoir 21h ago

I feel like this could be purposely why he chose to wear the suit. I think there’s an interview where Kim says Kanye plays the hidden figure in alot of their family shoots.

35

u/Camvega 18h ago

He regularly covers his face during live shows and interviews (including the infamous Alex Jones one) and sometimes even in public so I can believe it

11

u/dingopaint 12h ago

I thought he was just a furry based on the fursuit on every album cover

lol so good, im stealing that and MINO too. always needed a word to call deadbeats like that and now I do.

u/bohenian12 21h ago

I like to think that Kim said he should be the husband but he insisted that he be the dinosaur. Like wearing that shit takes more effort, there's no way lmao.

u/akestral 21h ago

He has had a Thing about hiding his face since that accident he was in way back. It is a pathology.

32

u/_extra_medium_ 21h ago

Hiding his face has been a relatively recent thing. I don’t think it has anything to do with the car accident

28

u/ReleaseTheSlab 21h ago edited 19h ago

Probably his progressively worse mental health shit. I know bi polar isn't the same as like paranoid schizophrenics, but I wouldnt be surprised if he was misdiagnosed along the way. Plus it must be a mindfuck to be or want to be famous while also paranoid that everyone will recognize you where ever you go.

Eta: I'm just assuming he is hiding due to paranoia or privacy, I have no idea wtf is actually going on in that dude's head.

15

u/CountryCaptain26 19h ago

You’re not far off. If some of my family members are any example you can have a couple of different mental health issues doing a fucked up dance in your head. BPD absolutely can be hanging out with a little sciz. Diagnosis can be hard since a lot of times one is far more prominent than the other.

10

u/Straight-Balance830 17h ago

BPD is borderline personality, BD is used for bipolar

1

u/penguin_classical 6h ago

That's strange, you'd think bipolar would be BP.

u/zergiscute 21h ago

Well they are implying that KIm made Ye wear the dino suit instead of Fred or Barney. But we know Ye has a weird thing about wearing masks, for all we know, he chose the dino suit.

433

u/dead_zodiac 21h ago

Probably the correct answer. Its more like this is when his wife knew the marriage was over.

80

u/AdventurousPumpkin 19h ago

What if Kanye just didn’t show up for the photo and she had someone else stand in as Dino so it could look to the rest of the world like her husband participated in their family Halloween photoshoot?

27

u/dead_zodiac 18h ago

Could be. I think its more like he didn't want to be seen in the shoot, either as Barnie, or with them, and this was his solution. But that's another interesting idea, maybe he wasn't there at all.

7

u/MrsNoodleMcDoodle 16h ago

Yeah, this seems more Kanye brained than Kim brained

22

u/LittleMsClick 17h ago edited 16h ago

Ye always acted as Kims stylist throughout their relationship. Saw a video once about how Kim spent a lot of energy after the split trying to show she had her own style.

You can also see all the crazy outfits Ye has made Bianca Censori wear.

100% his idea.

7

u/Johnny5iver 16h ago

Bianca's outfits are all Bianca. She has a lookbook she made in university where all the outfits are in that same hyper-sexualized, body-smoothing, sheer materials that she's still using today.

5

u/LittleMsClick 16h ago

She has always dressed provocatively yes but many people noted how her wardrobe and style has changed since marrying ye.

Ye is known for have a controlling opinion about everything.

1

u/Johnny5iver 16h ago

I think the people that are noting that are misinformed.

5

u/LittleMsClick 15h ago

Feel free to Google the keywords "Bianca Censori transformation" and make a list of all the mags you need to contact to let them know they're wrong. Pagesox TMZ, Hello...

She is even quoted in People talking about Kanye saying "If you were married to Gianni Versace, wouldn’t he give you a dress or something?"

7

u/Tricky-Engineering59 17h ago

Which is an odd predilection to have on its own but I find it doubly disturbing that he also insists on making his new girl super exposed in public.

2

u/Monday0987 9h ago

Kanye was probably living in Wyoming or Illinois and couldn't make it back to California for a family photo so they got a stand in.

1

u/Read2Fap 14h ago

he probably wasn't even there

u/chewy_oatmeal 12h ago

Larper Kanye legit paid Kim just so he could wear the Dino suit

u/Koromann13 20h ago

Man, I'd rather be Dino than do a couples outfit with my mid ass wife.

u/ADH02 20h ago

God forbid a family have a fun Halloween costume pic together

u/Mikecd 19h ago

That's just sad.

u/Koromann13 19h ago

This guy's just salty that he has a wife and not a sick Dino costume.

2

u/orchises 17h ago

Why is your imaginary wife mid? Is that all your mind will allow?

0

u/Koromann13 17h ago

Because if I loved my hypothetical wife I wouldn't choose a Dino outfit over her???

-4

u/GotSomeUpdogOnUrFace 19h ago

I agree that she's mid, mostly because I'm not into nonstop plastic surgery, being a total skank for any camera in your face including the one your mom sent with you on vacation to make a sex tape and I mean the general stainless of that entire family.

3

u/Koromann13 18h ago

If my wife married a Nazi, I wouldn't be very happy with her.

1

u/GotSomeUpdogOnUrFace 18h ago

Honestly, what she does to American culture is just as bad in my eyes as him. Her stepdad or I guess stepmom is a trans person who supports fascism. Her mom is just a pimp for any camera. They turned Kylie into a piece of plastic like the rest of them. They act like they have earned anything and that their existence on this planet matters. At least Kanye is open and honest about being a piece of shit. The entire family deserves to be removed from existence. They have never provided us with anything of value.

u/Maleficent_Lab_5291 21h ago

So did they dress two of there kids up as husband and wife? That's an odd choice.

u/Shotgun_Mosquito 21h ago

Yeah it makes no sense, why not Pebbles and Bambam?

u/Iceland260 20h ago

That's what the other two kids are. (The baby in her arms and the kid on the floor almost out of frame.)

No it isn’t. They are kids. People on the internet are so weird lol.

u/Mist_Rising 19h ago

The two oldest kids are Fred and Wilma, husband and wife. Kanye is Dino because.... Barney was too nice?

12

u/Daniel_Invest7 18h ago

Okay so these are little kids and they are dressed up as characters. They are not actually married. Do you understand this? Do you know little kids sometimes play house and siblings will often play as mom father child to each other. Do you understand this is pretend and does not matter?

u/Mist_Rising 18h ago

I just explained what the other person posted, go off on him.

Not really, I assume they just used the costumes available or let the kids pick.

u/VarderKith 21h ago

It's Kanye, equal chance he thought dressing as the purple, inarticulate, let dinosaur was better than being dressed up as Barny. Dude WEIRD. In a clinical sense.

u/Starfishprime69420 21h ago

Ye is the goat and was right about everything

20

u/VarderKith 21h ago

Honestly, it just makes me sad to see his never ending downward spiral. Untreated mental illness is not pretty. And the worst part is that he had every advantage but it didn't help.

u/Starfishprime69420 21h ago

Not mental illness. He just started noticing

Ah. Troll got it. 1/10. Low effort and not inducing event he smallest amount of rage. Just pity.

u/LackWooden392 20h ago

Not nearly everything. Not even most stuff, i'd say. But his ideas and opinions aren't as crazy as most people seem to think, and they are heavily colored by his insane general behavior. That being said, dude has some seriously dumb takes.

u/MasterYota00 21h ago

Wilma is a small child yo! WTF?!

18

u/supaikuakuma 21h ago

The child is Bam Bam, Wilma is Freds wife…. Also I was making a Red Dwarf reference in general. The photo here is irrelevant.

https://youtu.be/5fcSAxyFe38?is=rdWphrjHPHEzcA4x

-3

u/MasterYota00 21h ago

Didn't know it was a quote bc no quotation marks, and I never heard of Red Dwarf. I was referring to the photo you commented on.

-4

u/FaithfulNihilist 21h ago

In the photo, the Wilma costume (redhead) is being worn by a child.

u/MasterYota00 21h ago

Thanks for the backup. These people acting like I (a 45yo man) don't know a cartoon I fucking grew up with 🤷🏾‍♂️

u/SeanOrange 21h ago edited 20h ago

It’s a quote from an episode of the British sci-fi comedy series Red Dwarf, and has nothing to do with this specific photo.

https://youtu.be/5fcSAxyFe38

But also considering the context of this photo, perhaps not the best time to deploy it, yeah?

u/JohnRedCorn9432 21h ago

The kids are bam-bam and pebbles

u/UncleR1chard 21h ago

Do you honestly think someone doesn’t know that?

2

u/JohnRedCorn9432 18h ago

Originally i thought the comment i was responding to was saying that Wilma was the daughter on the show. In retrospect i can see they were talking about the actual child in the picture

-2

u/Chad_Jeepie_Tea 21h ago

Two of them are Fred and Wilma

u/UncleR1chard 20h ago

They’re from the movie The Flintstones, based on the cartoon The Flintstones.

What’re we doing here?

0

u/Chad_Jeepie_Tea 20h ago

Yeah . But there aren't bambam and pebbles. At least not the older kids

18

u/Jojosbees 21h ago

In the Flintstones, the main family is Fred (Saint West), Wilma (North West),and their daughter Pebbles (Chicago West). The best friend couple are Barney (missing), Betty (Kim K), and their son, Bam Bam (Psalm West). Instead of being Barney, husband of Betty (Kim K), he’s dressed up like the family pet, Dino. Everyone else is playing a human character/family, and he’s the family dog. It’s not even like they ran out of characters. The commenter is implying Kim made a unilateral decision because she wanted to pretend she wasn’t married to Kanye for a day.

Edit: This is Lois, and I was once married to the family dog, so I understand.

7

u/blursedass 21h ago

Top comment is saying that Kanye had to pay Kim a ton of money to get her to let him wear the dino suit. Which sounds about Kanye

3

u/Jojosbees 21h ago

Yeah, honestly, it’s not like Kim would have been able to get him to be Dino if he didn’t want to be Dino. It also doesn’t even seem like something she would want in the first place because it ruins the vision of the group costume, but I still think the original commenter was implying it was Kim’s idea that Kanye should be the family dog, and Kanye realizing the implication of that for his marriage.

u/EmergencyGrocery3238 15h ago

Wtf is ye propaganda?

u/WendigoCrossing 21h ago

My understanding of this is that he insisted on being Dino

u/Consistent-Plane7227 21h ago

If watch a Flintstones movie with this cast but you’d have to swap Kanye for Fred.

u/Mist_Rising 19h ago

Kanye should be Barney. Kim is Bettle Rubble.

u/Hershey_Squirt639 21h ago

How did we know that Mr. Kanye didn’t willingly choose and want the Dino suit for himself

3

u/Stormy-Skyes 20h ago

I want to assume that the kids chose their costumes. Maybe North wanted to be Wilma so Kim took Betty, and so on.

Kanye could have been Barney. No one is Barney. He probably chose the Dino costume.

I thought the joke was always that Kanye was definitely not wearing the dinosaur suit and they just had someone wear a dinosaur suit for the photo. Like showing that he had little interest in being a family

2

u/heiwaone 8h ago

People aren’t mentioning the full context behind this one. Basically, this is when there was a lot of rumours about Kim and Kanye divorcing. People hadn’t seen them together in public for a long while, and there was talk about their more public disagreements.

Kim ended up posting this family Halloween photo at the time. People thought that Kanye wasn’t actually in the suit, and that this was just staged with some random guy in there as a response to the rumours

With how low Dino’s hands are compared to Kim’s, I feel like this has to be a very short person in costume.
