like how only baxxids* can tell the difference between a male and female one!

It’s important to note that it’s the subject distance that’s the primary factor, not the focal length. The focal length is secondary in that it dictates how far you can be while maintaining the same framing. If you shoot the picture at 200 mm from the example and then without moving you shoot again at 20, you’ll have the same perspective, just way smaller subject in the frame; if you then crop in the picture shot at 20, you’ll have the same framing too, just way less pixels.
If you’re half a metre away from the dude’s nose, you’ll be roughly 60 cm away from his ears (20% more distance), but if you’re 5 metres away from his nose, you’ll be 5.10 m away from his ears (only 2% more distance) - and this is what creates the difference in apparent sizes of the facial features relating to one another.
Oooh focal length. I was like “those hair are not 20 mm” for a moment.
I get this reference and it’s excellent
Almost bought tickets to see CG. Then I heard Glover was also showing and I was confused. Why is a comedian opening for one of the most provocative rappers today? I’ll wait til streaming so I can fast forward an hour til the real show.
I thought it was crazy they also had that kid from Community on. That kids going places, I swear.
I feel like there ought to be an Asian version of this too.
Ah, I just noticed they are wearing different colour shits. I can totally tell them apart now.
Not to kink shame, but they should do that sort of thing in private.
They do look similar. If somebody tolled me the left is an older picture of the person on the right or that they’re brothers, I wouldn’t really have a reason not to belive em.

That’s literally what this is. That’s the joke.
Not sure if trolling, but it’s the same dude…
I’ve got prosopagnosia; if you have the same hair color and style as someone else, you might as well be identical twins for all I can tell.
Huh, I never knew the word for it. Thank you.
My wife has said many times, to me and others, that she thinks I have a form of face blindness. I don’t think I do.
It came up because every time someone said something like “doesn’t X look like Y when they were little?”, and I’d respond that I don’t see it. So many people say my kids are a splitting image of me… Nope, I don’t see that.
I recognise people I know in photos, new or old photos, usually without issue.
I do however often think an actor is someone they aren’t. “Hey, is that the person from this other movie”, my wife: “what?! No! They don’t even look alike”. And sometimes I’ll ask her if a random person looks like this or that person, usually with the same response, sometimes a strange look and “are you feeling ok?”.
Anyway, these guys should team up on a project. /s

I wonder about myself sometimes.
I have a really hard time recognizing someone if the context changes unless I know them fairly intimately. If I see someone I work with every day at the grocery store I will have no problem recognizing them. If I see someone who I wave to in the building when we pass, but who I rarely if ever interact with, I will really struggle to notice that it’s someone I know. I’ve run into my son’s teachers (who I generally at least see every day during the school year even if we don’t interact) and had 30 secs of panic before I could click into place who I was talking to.
Are you guys sure that isn’t a young Billy Dee Williams?
Same thing happens with Dave Grohl, that drummer from Nirvana, and the occasional drummer from Queens of the Stone age.
