On Monday night, LeBron James posted a selfie on Instagram. He was in a trench coat. It looked funny. You’ll be shocked to hear that others on the Internet also thought it was funny. LeBron likely did this (on his night off, mind you) because he wanted to see the reaction on the Internet. The photo, after all, was a few weeks old. So yeah, LeBron used an image of himself to troll the entire Internet for his own humor. He’s a keen observer of the human condition. Also, we’re all just suckers.
Be that as it may, the photoshops were damn good. The Inspector Gadget one below deserves a Webby of some kind. Also a spot in the Basketball Hall of Fame.
