Me: “who are any of these people?”
The second guy was in the big bang theory and the third guy was in Dr. House, idk who the first guy is
Kumail Nanjiani is a comedian and actor. He was in Silicon Valley and more recently he got shredded for Marvel’s Eternals. He’s pretty funny.
He was also just on the most recent season of Taskmaster. Pretty funny guy.
He’s also in the Fallout TV series and the Obi Wan Kenobi series
He was also in an episode of Community for the final paintball episode.
Deputy Custodian Lapari, he’s in at least one episode in season 5, Analysis of Cork-Based Networking, the paintball episode is season 6, Modern Espionage.
So sad he got jacked for that movie, but at least he remained jacked.
he got shredded for Marvel’s Eternals
Without your comment for context, I thought he was being blamed for how bad/mediocre Eternals was
That’s funny, honestly his section with his manager was the best part of the movie. “He tried to kill me in me sleep!” “I thought he was a vampire!”
I almost read that name as “Kathy Najimy” (the actress from Sister Act and Hocus Pocus) just now.
Don’t forget she’s also Peggy from King of the Hill!
And Rat Race, and The Scream Team, a Disney channel original movie where she, Tommy Davidson, and Eric Idle play sassy ghosts who collaborate with living children.
“To shreds you say?” /s
Good news!
“Shredded” as in he was raked over the coals for the movie’s poor performance, or “shredded” as in he worked out extensively to get a superhero physique? I haven’t seen Eternals, I just know it flopped.
Yes
He played, or voiced more accurately, prismo in adventure time. He’s also a stand up comedian
He’s genuinely one of my favorite voice actors. He added so much depth to AT
For sure. Idc what anybody else’s opinion about that show was, it was so wholesome and amazing. And the ending was so good. Hiding that relationship between two female characters you’d already learned to love for who they are, understanding why bubblegum wouldn’t accept finns absences suddenly making sense, huntress wizard, Jake and his family growth. What happened to humanity, finns struggle with honor, loyalty, and then finding out humans still exist? they really should make a movie. It was a little past my time, but once I watched it, I could see how its target audience could see that love is love, that nobody is wrong for being who they are, the actual important things to judge a person by isn’t who they love, it’s why they love and care about the people in their lives. So many subtle things about that show, as outrageous as it was, really showed that togetherness is what is so important.
The first guy was a contestant on Taskmaster
Why do you put “Me”? Who else is using your account? They should identify themselves.
The other me, duh
Same here, I don’t watch TV so I’m clueless.
I do know who Sarah is, my favorite role of hers was in The Way of the Gun and she gets decked.
That scene is so classic, I had to give away my copy of the dvd because it is just so realistic in it’s violence. One time I had to just stop watching it half way through and I don’t think I can ever watch it again
Great movie but maybe just too real
Escalation of violence is key and this movie personifies it. Its a sad reality but thats how it is… (Done a ton of military training on this)
Kumail literally had a stand up bit when he was much less well known about being called “Kumar” and how he dreams of the day that he is the goto point of reference that racists use to stereotype other brown people and himself. So Kal should proud of that, at least.
Also, I work with a lot of Middle Eastern and Indian people with a wide variety of names. It is weird that these three celebrities talking about being mistaken for each other all have names starting with K, containing an A, and ending with L. Kumail, Kunal, and Kal. Maybe it’s not so much about them being mistaken for each other but switching similar names around, like white guys called Kayden, Brayden, and Layden.
I wonder how good we are at distinguishing those Chris actors compared to distinguishing the actors in the OP.
Haha thanks Wiki, there’s a name:
It is a running gag my group that I cannot distinguish Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt.
I could only identify Chris Pratt in a line up. I struggle to differentiate between Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling. Then again, I’ve only been to the cinema 6 times in the past decade. Any celebrity news sounds like “curtains for Zoosha” to me.
Speak for yourself!
I did!! :D
I wonderrr how our identification success rates compare
I would get Pratt. The others I would recognize but not know the names lol
I mean, it’s also the racism that probably causes people to not give enough of a fuck to bother to recognize the difference; but the grammatical aspect ain’t making it any easier if you read at a 5th grade level
Eh, it took me years to tell Claire Danes apart from Gwyneth Paltrow and I think there are a couple other actresses that I may also be thinking are Claire or Gwyneth. It isn’t “they don’t recognize different brown people” as much as there are many doppelgangers in the world.
Jaime Pressly and Margot Robbie but I don’t think the people in the OP look alike.
Ew, a Margot?
In the '80s it was Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds for me.
At various periods of time, I’ve been unable to tell the difference between Val Kilmer and Kurt Russell.
I’d much rather have Claire Danes goop scented candle
You need to get checked for prosopagnosia.
I certainly can’t tell most of the Chrises apart.
I still can’t tell Jessica Chastain and Bryce Dallas Howard apart. I constantly misremember who is in what movie.
Women can be difficult recognize if they share one or two similar features. I blame it on the makeup the wear. Danes and Paltrow are skilled in using makeup and can use it to alter their looks a lot.
Oh hey look it’s the genocide supporter Sarah Silverman
Loved this guy in Parks and Rec
I would be very careful being brown around Sarah Silverman
Yeah, I really liked her until the whole “genocide is cool because of my superstition” bullshit
Fuck Sarah. She has always been a bigot. She’s been saying racist shit under the guise of humor for decades now.
Why are they still on Twitter?
Are they? Cause this is from 2018, so things might have changed.
Stale AF. Why are they even recycling this racist zionist?
Shit, I owe an apology to Karan Soni, because I was sure it was one of those 3 playing Dopinder until I looked it up.
Dopinder is on the multi-list. Plays the Indian Spider-Man in the Miles Morales animated movies.
Holy shit people, is this whole thread satire, or are you all basically confirming what they are talking about
Right they look nothing like each other, I guess our brains develop to best distinguish faces amongst our own ethnicity
Depends on if you are exposed to other ethnicities growing up.
People that grew up in a monoculture struggle a lot more than people who lived in diverse neighborhoods and schools.
At first I thought Kal meant both of your accolades like he only had two lol
I was mistaken for Jack black at a rave in December… I have a beard and am overweight. That’s all it took. And drugs. I’m assuming and drugs…
Underrated comedian
The guy with 3 accounts or Sarah Silverma?
Zio making a racist joke? I’m shocked. \s
I just read her controversies section on wiki. I wasn’t aware of most of it, but the Zionism is especially disappointing.
I didn’t know either, huge bummer
I never understood people who can’t tell look-a-likes apart. Sure, some people look very much alike, but it doesn’t take long to pick up on the small details. Only time I was a bit confused was when I started in college and a girl in my class had a twin who was in the class next door, but I didn’t know for the first few days so I had one deja vu experience after the other. Haha. But it didn’t take long before I could tell them apart from a mile away.
Prosopagnosia - face-blindness - is a real thing, that is especially common with autistic folks. Personally I struggle a lot with faces, but I can learn to recognize the faces of people, that I interact often with (still, sometimes I cannot recognize my partner from pictures, for example). Some people cannot learn faces at all.
That being said, in cases like these, it is definitely racism.
yeah I have a hard time telling apart people with similarly shaped faces, but having looked up these 3 actors, they look completely different
Ironically I have the opposite problem, I’m so bad with faces that I worked with two twins and never knew they were twins because their mannerisms were so different
Don’t forget how casually racist the average 'Murican is
These actors barely count as humans to most of them
And disappointingly, Silverman is fine with a slightly different group of brown humans being wiped out
A lot of Americans just live in rural mostly white areas. I’d say most aren’t intentionally maliciously racist, but painfully ignorant.
USAians were raised on sterotypes. We dont neccesarily think they are all bad or make people less per se.
But we have also been raised on fear with a nationalism subtext.
And the convolution of the two makes a lot of default bigots without a community showing humans are all just people.
