Looks like he is tired. Might not feel well. It happens and I really hate how these stupid hot takes are presented.
He should be a paid spokesman for Dunkin’ by now, I see him with it more often than not, it’s like he’s addicted to Dunkin’s specifically
Him and his brother had a dunkin Superbowl commercial
Jeez must be hell dealing with paparazzi
Honestly, I kind of hate these memes for this reason, I emphasize deeply with his emotional state, which is why I know I would hate being photographed every time I feel like that. Just let the man just live his life.
I don’t get posts like this – his expression matches nearly every other 40+ white dude minding his own business that I’ve ever seen. These pics/posts have strong “you should smile more” energy
Don’t take pics of random people minding their own business and post them on the internet without consent?
Exactly. Don’t judge me and my RBF.
Why are you talking to me like that. This is my smile.
Yes exactly! The guy in the clouds one is always most puzzling to me. His expression is basically null but everyone reacts like it means something
emphasizeempathizeIt’s literally what you sign up for when you become a career actor, though.
I’m actually a very talented actor, but I never had any interest in pursuing it as a career for exactly this reason.

That’s crazy. I too am a temporarily embarrassed millionaire.
I’m a really good astronaut but I never went to space because I get motion sickness.
Is…is he okay? Like genuinely?
Looks like he just wants to get coffee without getting his pic taken.
Honestly fair
Are the [broad group]s okay?
[broad group] has not been okay since [the thing] happened.
I think he’s been going through some kind of divorce.
If true, that would explain the pictures. That is the face of “I can’t deal with ::waves arms at everything:: this, right now.”
Who cares. He’s an over rated douchebag.
Right. As opposed to you, who is clearly a stellar example of empathy and humanity.
So I am supposed to care about a sex predator apologist?
Oh that dang empathy.
Yeah it’s much easier taking the internet’s word for something and just letting it define your entire personality than actually interacting with the real world, isn’t it?
Uh, in interviews he said he had no idea what was really going on. Then it came out that he did know what was going on and was even on Weinstein’s “red flag” list, for fear he would talk to reporters.
That is not internet rumor, that is easily confirmable public knowledge.
You clearly refuse to do any actual research and just want to believe what you want to believe.
*Edit: Your celebrity suck up is embarrassing.
I think you’re the one who needs to do some research, cause that’s not even close to reality. He said he knew Weinstein was sleezy, then 1 person said they went crying to Affleck after something happened with Weinstein, which resulted in people like YOU claiming this means Affleck knew he was raping people. Then that same person (Rose McGowan) clarified in an interview that she never meant to imply she told Affleck she was raped or anything like that, she said “It’s just more to illustrate the point of this continual thing of everybody knowing and everybody being part of it, unwittingly or proactively.” which Affleck flat out agreed with, the point being that hundreds if not thousands of people knew Weinstein was sketchy and weren’t collectively saying anything (until they were).
And to illustrate the point of this meme and why people think you’re an asshole this also bears mentioning: “Affleck has both anxiety and depression, and has taken antidepressants since age 26. He is a recovering alcoholic and follows a 12-step program. He said he used alcohol to alleviate a constant feeling of “discomfort” and remarked that it “took me a long time to fundamentally, deeply, without a hint of doubt, admit to myself that I am an alcoholic.” There is a history of addiction and mental illness in Affleck’s family.”
Lol, that is a LOT of mental gymnastics there.
Dude knew and he lied about knowing.
End of story.
Anxiety and depression doesn’t excuse shitty behavior, but whatever you need to feel better about gargling his nuts.
😂
To be clear, I don’t think anyone here is a celebrity suck up. They’re just empathetic humans seeing other humans struggle and wanting them to be OK or see how we can help. It’s the human condition, we shouldn’t discourage that.
Separately Ben Affleck may or may not be a shitty human being if what you said was true, but in the moment he still showed he was a depressed human, and other humans want to help. Not because they’re sycophants, but because they’re good people who want to help.
Your continued arguing in defense of Ben Afleck says differently.
“may or may not”
Jesus Fuckng Christ, you sound like a fucking Trumplican.
“There’s good people on both sides.”
Ben, you should smile more. You look prettier when you smile.
Hear me out. Next Gen “reboot” ala Strange new worlds where Affleck is an older Riker nearing the end of his command of the Titan.
You know what. I think Star Trek may be what he needs in life. The community and fambase coupled with a supporting cast he could have an extremely quiet and happy career.
Preach! I would love old Affleck as a Star Trek Starship Captain.
He could Bakula this bitch up for sure
And all this time, I thought it was JLo making him that unhappy. Maybe he just has resting sad face.
This is definitely a thing, and I am so tired of people asking me what’s wrong.
I have resting horny face.
Every time we see him it’s like he’s ready to check himself into a mental hospital. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Just an observation.
I don’t know how to get emotional support
Not Dunkin’ apparently. He’s on the way back and looking no better. Maybe Starbies has what he needs?
I’m sure one day God will let me enter his paradise… I’m tired of living life
The only emotional support i have found is from myself. When friends/family say “don’t worry, buddy, it will get better” i recognize that they mean well but those sayings do nothing for me—in fact, they feel invalidating of my emotions.
Exactly! In contrast to that, if I experience “it getting better” it’s a totally different thing.
When a friend of mine needs help I try to be sensitive but it’s still possible that I’ll drop a “Don’t worry, buddy, it will get better” myself. It’ll be honest, though.
It’s blurry
Reminds me of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSvNhxKJJyU
He always looks like he knows he’s a piece of shit and feels bad about it.
he was great in Mallrats!
Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms, yo.
Oh, a sailboat!
Somebody help! That boy is stuck in the escalator!
Fictional characters! Am I getting through to you at all?
doesn’t make him not an absolute bastard
Y’all are being way too harsh. I’m sure he has a really good reason for why he enabled and protected Harvey Weinstein’s rapery. Something so convincing that we’d all say, “you were absolutely right to help blow up the lives of fellow artists. You’re really not a piece of shit!”
Eta: Apparently, my sarcasm was too subtle. The fact that people aren’t catching onto that is incredibly depressing because that means this was a believably shitty take. I really thought the last sentence was a dead giveaway…
Humanity and satire are dead, killed by genuine ghouls who are totally cool supporting monsters.
There’s never a good reason to enable and protect rape.
I just realized that you’re probably being sarcastic, though.
I really thought that my sarcasm was obvious, especially with that last sentence… Apparently there are people out there who are more openly shitty than I realized.
There’s never a good reason to enable and protect rape.
Any standard set lower than this should be grounds to get throat-punched.
Yeah, there are absolutely people who honestly believe that exposing Weinstein was a bad thing. Humans suck.
Its just the internet and text, sarcasm doesnt translate; Poe’s law
Can’t believe people are down voting you.
Even Lemmy has tunnel vision on their celebrity idols.
Dude is a fucking douchebag and way overrated as an actor and director.
Who the fuck always casts themselves in their own movies and is NOT a d-bag.
Mel Brooks
Ok, you got me.
They weren’t starring roles at least. 😂
I don’t care. Their boos fuel me.
I resent rich people in general but I fucking hate this feckless buffoon especially. Professionally, he had a hand in ruining an iteration of Batman. Personally, he doesn’t understand the difference between race and religion when it comes to people who practice Islam and that’s both reductive and patronizing. Fuck Ben Affleck.
If you “hate” a random actor, then that’s kind of a you problem, and you should probably consider therapy, or at the very least, spend less time online.
He’s never done anything to harm you, he’s just lived his life. He may not be a perfect person but no one is.
I have known a good number of actors in my life. Some were TV show stuff and one I know for sure was in movies.
hating an actor is actually a big compliment. as big as love. not knowing who they are or knowing who they are and not caring is the biggest slight you can have for them.
Idk man. I share the same sentiment as the person you responded to. It’s not necessarily about what the actors want.
It’s about cultivating and maintaining the energy required to “hate” someone you’ll never meet and who will most likely never know your name…
Like… What is even the point? How would that be useful in a person’s day to day life. Just my 2 cents
I know what you mean, but I get the impression that you and OP are using hate with different levels of intensity and specificity.
This didn’t feel to me like the ‘oh I hate Joffrey and can’t not-see him when I see Jack Gleeson’ type of “hate”.
You know those signs that say “X Number of Days Since the Last Accident”, and then you go in and change the number accordingly? If you have one that says “X Number of Days Since I was a Childish Asshole for No Reason” you should go ahead and change it to “0”.
Oh boy another person to hate! :D FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU aaaaaand blocked. That was easy. Unlike Ben Affleck, I’ll never have to hear about YOU ever again.
You hate a person you’ll never meet and who will likely never know your name??
Damn dude that kind of shit must take a lot of energy. Pop off tho
I’ve always been fascinated by people who hate celebrities. Again, the amount of energy it takes to actually HATE something. I reserve that kind of energy for well, things I need to hate lmao.
That being said I do remember the clip you’re talking about where he went off on a panel because somebody suggested Islam is oppressive to women. You’re spot on there
I reserve that energy for shit that actually matters. Hated is just a way to give power over yourself to your enemies.
Yeah like when I think about things that I really HATE…
I’m not sure why I phrased it like that in the first place ( saving my energy to hate things that I need to hate ). Yes, reserving energy for things that really matter is what’s important.
Actual hate just isn’t worth the effort/energy
Exactly, like the asshole who parks his car on the sidewalk in front of my flat. That guy can rot in hell
Boy you fuckers sure are lining up for the hate train. Fuck you too then.
Lmaooooo
Bro I’m sorry that hating people is your hobby in life. I don’t care about you enough to insult you or hate you. Have a nice rest of your life!!
I heard he liked to screw women in a very uncomfortable place.
like the backseat of a volkswagen?
Or the front seat of a volkswagen?
Backseat of a Fiat
