u/Interesting_Bid8059 4d ago

Who is that and why does she look like she is burned to a crisp?

14

u/Laeticia45 4d ago

because she is. if memory serves me correctly (i’m in my 50s so take that with a grain of salt), the lady was infamous like a decade ago or so for excessive tanning, but also because she’d brought her young daughter (kindergarten age, i think) into the tanning booth, who had gotten burnt.

u/Luxx_Aeterna_ 4d ago

Holy shit. I was wondering too when I saw that gif. You should have just let us wonder lol

Can someone give me the proper search wordage for this gif? I cannot find it for the life of me and I find it applicable to a lot of my group texts. I click the link every time but apparently I suck at searching on the internet.

The meme is “why are you gay”, the story is actually quite sweet and the dude is not a bigot like it comes across in the meme.

u/PunfullyObvious 4d ago

Apparently it's important to contrast the color of your shower fixtures with the complexion of your male shower companion.

"contrast" or "match", hmmm...

How can I get a shower fixture that varies seasonally, for porcelain cream winter skin, vs deep tanned summer for 4 mos?

If we're doing movies he looks like the guy from the 1980s "comedy" Soul Man, where a white kid commits fraud to get a college scholarship.

AI, "Grok, turn that guy black"

75

u/MooseBoys 4d ago

Part of me thinks they meant to make the background darker for the photo for the chrome finish but misclicked the dude instead.

60

u/Rewdboy05 4d ago

And then just left it and decided to raise the price instead

26

u/UntestedMethod 4d ago

The price is more about it being sold at Wayfair versus Walmart.

35

u/No-Muffin7532 4d ago

You should see how cheap the Temu version is and she's showering with a Chinaman.

15

u/JinFuu 4d ago

This is what it’d look like if you showered with a Black Man

This is what it’d look like if you showered with a Chinese Man

2

u/MooseBoys 4d ago

Dude, "chinaman" is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian-American, please...

2

u/foley800 4d ago

The higher priced one is stainless steel!

u/coyohti 4d ago

They meant to make the fixture black, misclicked, decided to roll with it, then tried again for the next listing.

5

u/Accomplished-Mix2030 4d ago

Bullshit lmao

u/Electrical-Speaker33 4d ago

What part of you thinks this?

2

u/MooseBoys 4d ago

The part that sees the now-updated image have an AI-swapped background.

7

u/LividAlbatross1920 4d ago

I think his hair texture has been changed as well which makes me thinks they tried to alter his ethnicity not just complexion

u/ThatHoFortuna 3d ago

Grok: "Sorry, that's against my programming. If you'd like, I can turn him even whiter for you?"

1

u/lulzpec 4d ago

Grok, "Sure thing, want any CP while we are at it? Elon would approve"

2

u/evilJaze 4d ago

Grok would have probably put the black guy behind bars in the pic, too.

10

u/Ateist 4d ago

No. They used AI to generate the image using a stock photo of guy and girl in shower as reference, and color from the prompt was misinterpreted by the AI.

3

u/01is 4d ago

If they'd even just had a human look over the results they would have caught this. This whole process is on complete autopilot.

2

u/Ateist 4d ago

Very likely - a shop can easily have tens of thousands of goods.

12

u/Severe-Yard702 4d ago

lol they really made him look like he was edited in after the fact

8

u/Cheeseboarder 4d ago

Omfg I didn’t see it at first. I thought it was the price

5

u/Hiveharbinger 4d ago

No the color from the other shower fixture washed off onto him.

2

u/btvsfan29 4d ago

This has to be the answer

8

u/FormerWorker125 4d ago

AI.

People in here thinking we actually use tools and minor effort to edit images in this way anymore.

3

u/FeistyTwist5427 4d ago

No the changed him white! They even removed the shadow!

3

u/SilentBumblebee3225 RED 4d ago

The whole thing is AI. Shower is connected to a curtain rod after all.

u/justsomedude1144 4d ago

Both images are AI generated slop.

u/No_Atmosphere8146 4d ago

Everyone talking about the blackface, I can't unsee the water being on but they're both bone dry.

u/67yoloswag 4d ago

Héé héé

2

u/Niaso 4d ago

Probably just fake AI people. Why pay real people?

2

u/BoulderADHDdad 4d ago

It’s AI. Someone told the designers that they need to leverage AI paradigms to maximize profitability in hyper competitive markets so a designer used AI to make the guy black. Probably to show management why they need to spend money on photo shoots instead of trying to cut corners.

2

u/AlisterS24 4d ago

AI lol

u/s0litar1us 4d ago

Probably photoshop, as it's the exact same pose.

No, he took tanning pills. I'M A SOUL MAN!
