After a revival of bean related shitposts, someone suggested Dean related shitposts, which caused people to post a lot of pictures and gifs of the Dean Pelton character from the television show Community.

In season 3 of that show, there's a whole plot where one of the characters tries to secretly replace the Dean with a lookalike (in the show they alternate between calling it a doppledeaner or deanelganger), who is found through a celebrity impersonator service, as a Moby impersonator. A picture of the fake Dean has been posted here.

So this picture of actual Moby is a continuation of that line, that evolution of these shitposts.

It's Beck. And Beck looks like Dean.

Can't tell if this is a joke, but it's Moby not Beck.

This also a joke because it is Randy Blithe of Lamb if God.

There's an arc on that show that involves how Dean Pelton looks like Moby.

I looked that one up. Eminem's Without me has this verse:

And Moby, you can get stomped by Obie,

You 36 year old bald headed fag blow me

You don't know me, you're too old

Let go, it's over, nobody listens to techno

I don't know if Eminem was joking, but that's pretty awful.

Lol it was a different era. Much better and more laid back than today’s generation
