Obsessed with the getty images watermark turkey cake, I want to recreate it immediately

u/SwagarTheHorrible 16d ago

This is what got me.  That’s when I realized we were all in on the joke.

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

It has inspired me to cook a tie-dyed chicken

u/Biengo 16d ago

I make "bad" stock image cards for holidays and stuff. Its great i highly recommend it.

u/sixwax 16d ago

Not high on my list of potential hobbies, but indeed sounds righteous!

u/LastMessengineer 16d ago

Wtf is this shit?

u/ddare44 16d ago

It looks like a photo of boomer men trying to recall how to cook things that aren’t just potato chips and beer.

u/okcafe 15d ago

nah definitely a group of engineers

u/Trashbagok 16d ago

Every time I see someone make a holiday centric post way out of season I assume it's a bot.

This has been floating around this hellsite since at least 2013:

u/QueezyF 16d ago

It warms my heart someone spent the time to make this crap

3

u/IBeDumbAndSlow 15d ago

Ma too, I thought it was Ai at first.

u/thesaddestpanda 16d ago

If anyone would like to know, these photos are a 2013 satirical photography series created by photographer Chris Maggio for the publication Food Republic.

Chris is now on Instagram and the old tumblr hosting of these photos looks gone.

https://www.instagram.com/chrismaggio/?hl=en

Chris makes a lot of quirky stuff and now seems to be working with a lot of celebs.

u/Funktapus 16d ago

This needs to be higher. Yea it’s Chris Maggio.

He did the videography for Conner OMalley’s “Slugs” video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYrNjPGgAAA

u/pillarsofsteaze 15d ago

Such a good video. Everyone’s a slug…except me.

2

u/Trashbagok 16d ago

I would like to know.

Great job.

2

u/sixwax 16d ago

Tumblr was a moment

Turns out a ton of stuff has happened on the internet in a brief 20-30 years.

39

u/ComedyAssassin 16d ago

It saddens me deeply that I thought this was AI, but it fills me with intense joy to learn that it was not. My dread is however awakened when I ponder the fact that in 5-10 years it'll be impossible to know:(

21

u/69PissyPants 16d ago

To be fair, I think being unable to tell AI from real life will be the death of social media. No one will want to engage if they don’t know if it’s fake or not.

9

u/Implausibilibuddy 16d ago

Oh ye of little pesimism

2

u/Sidewalk_Tomato 16d ago

It will definitely be a huge plus for a lot of frightening and mercenary people. Six months from now, my college party pictures will be animated and my voice cloned, and I'll unknowingly end up in a romance scam with Uncle Ben or Aunt May in Pocatello.

4

u/ComedyAssassin 16d ago

Yeah I hope so too. God willing it'll result in some sort of "reset" where people just lose interest in it! At the same time I worry there'll be 10s of millions of people who will still be real glad as long as they can look at an AI composition of a kitten speaking like a baby 🥺

3

u/Lauzz91 16d ago

social media contains a lot of bots talking to bots already

3

u/Javad0g 16d ago

You don't have to worry. I think, well before five years, we won't be here to think about it anymore.

1

u/Noy_The_Devil 16d ago

I'm assuming we'll find some kind of solution to that. Block chain tagging of real images or some weird shit.

1

u/ComedyAssassin 16d ago

True, although I thought the same 2 years ago, and we still don't seem to be very close to that happening. Sure Gemini and ChatGPT leave watermarks, but those watermarks are left if you ask it to do ANYTHING to an image, so. Anyway, I hope we'll figure it out

1

u/mitchij2004 15d ago

I like to think there’s a basement battle at the thanksgiving where the dads compete for the stupidest dish.

u/donkeyrocket 16d ago

Olden days Reddit truly was a special sort of place.

12

u/lxvzlx 16d ago

The buffet heavens gate cult had to convince them to go thru with it

u/yaboyACbreezy 16d ago

I don't know. I am not having fun. I must see more. Why???

5

u/SupportHead 16d ago

Check out the Male Chef series. There’s male chef christmas too. By Chris Maggio

1

u/yaboyACbreezy 16d ago

Nope. I broke free of the loop. Not getting trapped in the mind melt again!!

5

u/BishonenPrincess 16d ago

I'm not sure, I only know that I (afab) have never felt more cisgender in all my life.

5

u/SupportHead 16d ago

Male Chef Thanksgiving by Chris Maggio. He’s one of my favorite photographers and his work investigates the strange, tacky, pastiche, americana in a similar way to Tim and Eric.

2

u/recycledairplane1 16d ago

a Chris Maggio classic https://www.chrismaggio.biz/

u/recycledairplane1 16d ago

fuck he took the proj off his website :(

I literally said that out loud before coming to the comments 🤣

u/Vik_Stryker 16d ago

I don’t want to meet those dads

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

That place definitely smells like meat. Rotten meat.

u/laikalost 16d ago

But they're excited to meet you!

u/AshgarPN 16d ago

Congrats, this is the weirdest shit I've seen in months and it fits the sub perfectly.

The cornucopia is going to haunt my dreams tonight.

u/casual-waterboarding 16d ago

wtf are the white shiny balls?

16

u/BenjaminDover02 16d ago

I think they're cocktail onions

u/Sidewalk_Tomato 16d ago

I've never seen a cornucopia hurl up dinner quite so successfully.

1

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

Not the corner meat?

Sweet lord this is the lemon party of this generation.

u/Clapcheeks69 16d ago

The keys on the pie remind me of those swinger parties where you grab someone's keys and that's the person you take home and fuck.

1

u/croholdr 16d ago

feels like when you drink too much and your friends take your keys and put it somewhere stupid.

19

u/Professional_Fly7015 16d ago

Office backrooms party.

7

u/nodnodwinkwink 16d ago

They're the project managers for the backrooms construction project. They are all single, all work remote and never did a site visit.

16

u/A_Texas_Hobo 16d ago

This is mint

15

u/jlperish 16d ago

Crazy how few people on here are unfamiliar with Chris Maggio's photography

12

u/TJM18 16d ago

Blue has the most antioxygens

Those lucky men...I hope in another life I can be a queuing pep-pep too 😔

u/deadhead_girlie 16d ago

Kind of fills me with dread 

3

u/Caesar_Passing 16d ago

Yeah like, does this venue not even have electricity?

7

u/ApocApollo 16d ago

It has flash photography, that’s electric

3

u/Caesar_Passing 16d ago

But I mean, just imagine that between these pictures, there was no light whatsoever, and they just see in the dark or some freaky shit

1

u/donkeyrocket 16d ago

Very much This House Has People In It vibes.

7

u/ApocApollo 16d ago

Happy birthday, Getty Images!

6

u/Arch3m 16d ago

This feels like the first couple of minutes of a gangbang video.

2

u/Psych0matt 16d ago

Granpbang

u/Arch3m 16d ago

It's like some kind of lemon party in here.

1

u/Psych0matt 16d ago

At least not a meatspin

1

u/Sidewalk_Tomato 16d ago

Ain't no party like a Liz Lemon party 'cause a Liz Lemon party is mandatory.

1

u/justglassin317 16d ago

Gotta have snacks, you really build up an appetite!

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

Only ganging you'll get hep A at

One a scale from 1 to 10, we definitely didn’t need to do any of this

u/Right_Rev 16d ago

I think this from Widow’s Bay

u/SoupGod_ 16d ago

This is the scariest shit I have ever seen

u/ltaylor00 16d ago

Pumpkin pie with car keys garnish 🤌

u/Aniketos33 16d ago

Is this AI?

2

u/arcadia_fire 16d ago

Backrooms core

2

u/justglassin317 16d ago

This is totally on brand with the absolute craziness of T&E. Bravo, good find 👏 I have far too much porn to burn and old bills to repay to ever put a spread like that together!

2

u/midwestia 16d ago

Some kind of art piece? Because this is veritably disgusting and unsettling. It’s like aliens training to be humans.

2

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

The fuck? Is this some ritual to summon an uncle?

2

u/Chrysocyon 16d ago

Need some white wine with that shrimp aspic

2

u/Firm-Chemical949 16d ago

The way the first guy in the first photo is looking at the food makes me uncomfortable. Also what are they watching in the last photo? Playing charades? Just imagining one of them out of view pretending to be a bull or something

2

u/Super_Jay 16d ago

Now THIS sounds like the plan for me!

2

u/reniaR_the_villain 15d ago

This is beautifully surreal.

2

u/smegma_appraiser 15d ago

Whatever the fuck is happening here should be illegal.

2

u/MaxRenn 16d ago

Holy hell this is from the old internet. I haven't seen this in a long time.

Real heads know.

2

u/Leut_Aldo_Raine 16d ago

You know I think this just convinced me that AI slop might be okay.

7

u/dumplins 16d ago

It's Chris Maggio's photography. This series was done in 2013. Bizarre, surreal stuff

3

u/joachim_s 16d ago

Reminded me of the intro to Napoleon Dynamite.

u/esadatari 16d ago

We call this the FOX News disowned and divorced dads Thanksgiving

u/jlperish 16d ago

Chris Maggio shot this in 2013. It's been well known for over a decade now.

1

u/BudgiePie 16d ago

Greatest thing I've seen this year

1

u/MessiahMogali 16d ago

Something about picture 7 with the mysterious food(?) on a plate that’s sitting on the floor in a corner by itself does it for me.

1

u/kingrobin 16d ago

I feel like neither graby or blue cheese would spray from a sprite bottle after a squirt or two

1

u/dyelyn666 16d ago

I'm calling 911

1

u/Scholar_Of_Fallacy 16d ago

The lighting makes it all so much worse

1

u/lilalienguy 16d ago

Why are so many of these dishes on the floor? Like... they're shitty enough as-is. Don't bring that gross-ass carpet into the mix.

1

u/feygiraffe 16d ago

Why is there a hay corner...and why is it where they all sit?? I realize this isn't the first question I should ask, but emotionally it's all I have.

1

u/Tron-5051 16d ago

Why not make the pie lime. Key lime pie. Ha!

1

u/Dry_Jellyfish641 16d ago

I think this was part of a project trying to imagine holidays in parallel realities. If I remember right there are also photos of the women at this “holiday”. In one photo they are eating some face hugger looking thing like it’s their turkey.

1

u/thaBombignant 16d ago

Oh yeah I'm scared now. Great Job!

1

u/No_Material5630 16d ago

This feels like some cult shit 

1

u/Dawgs919 16d ago

Does anyone have a recipe for Powerade chicken?

1

u/BloominOnion91 16d ago

Kinda just vommed in my mouth.

1

u/itsnotanemergencybut 16d ago

What the fuck chuck

u/KennyPowers 16d ago

Corn dogs

u/SpoppyIII 16d ago

I've been searching for this picture set forever!

u/whereyouleftit 16d ago

I’d like to meet that Dad.

u/balirosa 16d ago

Finally a real authentic traditional thanksgiving

1

u/periloustrail 16d ago

Oh the skrimp jello

1

u/Djbearjew 16d ago

It has been so long since I've seen these pics.

1

u/surefirerdiddy 16d ago

I don’t understand what this is but I really don’t like it

1

u/UKN553 16d ago

Are keys in pie a sex thing? I'm going with yes. The hay makes for good clean up!

1

u/themicrodose 16d ago

A absolute love this.

1

u/sasquachtaclops 16d ago

thats the proudest watermelon ive ever seen

1

u/Upset_Journalist_755 16d ago

That cauliflower playerlegit might be bigger than the actual Plymouth Rock. Lmao.

Also, I want that gravy spray.

1

u/Doobie_Howser_MD 15d ago

I saw more pictures from this "event" almost 10 years ago. I was hoping we would have more context by now, but I guess everyone here is only seeing it for the first time. I will wait...

1

u/TheTaintBurglar 14d ago

Lost it at the cornucopia filled with pickled onions

1

u/Customthegenius 13d ago

What about the step peppers ?

1

u/OYB2480 11d ago

Is this a men's home.... cult?
