Redid my grandpa's 1987 'distracted boss' meme for a wedding toast

I found an old printed meme in a box at my grandma's house, it was a hand drawn version of the distracted boyfriend format from 1987, before it was even a thing. I scanned it and photoshopped the faces to be my cousin, his ex, and a plate of wings at the reception speech. The DJ put it up on the projector and the whole table lost it for like 10 minutes. Has anyone else remixed a family relic into a modern format and totally changed the room?

Ha, wait a sec. The distracted boyfriend meme didn't exist in 1987, that format was made famous by that stock photo around 2017. Your grandpa might have drawn a guy looking at two things, but it wasn't the same meme, just a similar joke idea. Still, it's cool you turned an old family drawing into something that worked for the wedding. The wings part is what really sells it, honestly. People lose their minds over food jokes at receptions. Glad you got the whole table going, that's a win no matter the timeline.
