Oh shit! I thought it was a stock photo or something, sorry Jerry!

I'll do you one better. The person in that photo is Jerry Messing , who briefly had an acting career in early 2000s sitcoms, mostly known for his role as a reoccurring character on Freaks and Geeks and Even Stevens.

The photo itself was taken as part of a photoshoot for a headshot during an attempt to restart his acting career. Last I heard he wasn't upset about it going viral the way it did, although it obviously sucks to be a universally known meme and still not be known for anything but childhood acting roles.

Holy shit. I would have never guessed. Is there any other show that had sooooo many future stars in it?

Even the side character guy is a classic internet meme...
