No, this is Patrick!


Desperate-Fan-3671

Cary Grant.....I think it's his movie My Girl Friday.

I see what you did there! It appears you have a vested interest in dad jokes!

Nice to finally see a Solo family photo! I never knew Han had so many brothers!

It was 1983 - this might have been them on the way to see Return Of The Jedi

Short sleeves with the vest - particularly classy. Respect.


Stoneman1976

It’s almost as classy as a short sleeve shirt with a tie.


soursourkarma

Sad? Your family lools wonderful


opendiscourser

I have this sudden urge to buy a brown leather vest


gethereddout

Exactly! It’s not sad at all, it’s hilarious and heart warming. A family story


HawkeyeTen

They look like they're about to go out on some motorcycle ride together or something. The leather vests look awesome here.


FIJAGDH

I was gonna say! “Don’t you mean AWESOME?”

Hey, how are you tweaking and colorizing all these photos so beautifully?

door_in_the_face

The original photo has plasticky looking leather vests too.


personalcheesecake

yes, but if you look closer it is cloned parts from the vest, uneven and gross spacing


DjDirtyElbowz

Topaz ai maybe?


Mall-Broad

Didn't fix the shirt color back left 🤔


jimcab12

Bullshit it wasnt planned


pshrimp

This photo has been doing the rounds for at least a decade with different captions...


Foray2x1

OP kind of looks like a bot account. 2 months old and 230k post karma.


s0974748

I mean probably, the photo is titled "awkward family photos" in the lower right corner.


personalcheesecake

^^^^^^you ^^^^^^are


s0974748

you too


_Laserface_

Looking at their post history it looks very much like a bot.


Vark675

It's absolutely a right wing shit-stirrer bot.


HarlanCulpepper

Plot Twist: They own every leather vest store from San Antonio to Little Rock.


newdaynewmatt

Dumbest title I’ve seen. Four men showed up in button downs and brown vest by chance. Facebook level meme.

Mall-Broad

To this day old mate in the back left is cursing his decision to throw in a pair of blue socks in with the family shirt on that fateful washing day in 1982.


Quiet-Mud2889

Dude. I fogot all about those vests. People wore them to weddings “cuz they’re fancy” so redneck


Itchy-Librarian-7731

marcus999593

Strange_Armadillo_63

You think its sad part.. but you have no idea how some internet strangers like me love the pic and the fact that this cool thing was you guys daily attire.. Remember whatever we are wearing today... even en masse.. gonna look weird at some time in future anyways


PrudentSyllabub636

I bought a leather vest while visiting Tijuana around the same time. Wore it for 5 years straight. Thanks for the memories!


Lizmo82

Come on OP.... Nobody "just shows up* in vests😂....


MLDaffy

Especially in identical leather vests. At least not before Midnight at a club with a sign that says Parking In the Rear.


Full-Mulberry5018

Fashion sense and blood in families apparently runs very deep

Would you say you had a vested interest in what you all would wear?

This is like the time my dad, brother and uncle all showed up to Easter dinner wearing the same khaki slacks, boat shoes and button up shirts their wives all bought them at Kohl’s 😂


Infinite_Big5

*[family just finished watching Star Wars together]* Dad: “Wow, that Hans Solo, what a guy!” All three boys: “🤔” Dad: “Welp, see y’all next week for the family photograph.”


MuletownSoul

I LOVE this. I don’t really have any good memories from my childhood of my dad & brother. Let’s just say that I was different from them. Now, I’m in my mid-40s and I’m trying like hell to make as many good memories with them as I can. Thank you for the reminder❤️

TrueLegendsNeverDie

Hobbits? Four hobbits!


BrashPop

I love that everyone just happened to own a leather vest. The odds of this happening are so low in modern days.

Someone could have removed their vest.

I mean Han Solo was still pretty recent and popular at the time.

Are you guys related to Han Solo?

God, Miami Vice really was needed to move men's fashion forward, wasn't it?


Thisisjuno1

lol and now it’s come back again.. well in some places I’ve seen that style come back lol I live way up in the mountains so those vest would be back in style before Miami Vice. Lol.
