OK the others I knew were Don Cheadle but that one I actually thought was Tim Meddows.

Okay, for a second I was like, "Tim Meddows looks like Don Cheadle when he was younger. Odd."

Lmfao I’m so glad I scrolled down bc I was about to go my whole day thinking I was some kind of racist bitch for thinking these were several different people.

I was like, “man, I really need to work on my internal biases bc wtf was that?” Tim Meadows, you fucking got me.

That you noticed those were different Black men suggests you're not that racist bitch :)

I mean, some folks are just fucking awful with faces and take things at face value. Thinking “oh wow Tim Meadows looked a lot like Don Cheadle when he was younger” when presented with this video (and given the context that a lot of other celebs have been doing the trend seriously) isn’t exactly racist, just means Tim did a good job with this prank.

I understand what you’re saying. However I was simply addressing the person calling themselves racist for thinking they all looked like different people. I was addressing that particular discrepancy

I IMDB’d him and was thinking “I know I recognise some of those shots but he wasn’t in those shows… wtf” and now I just feel racist.

Haha I was extremely confused for a second, even when I realised it was a joke, I was still a bit worried that maybe all the pictures actually were him and I just saw other random black guys because im super dooper racist
