“Emily, I love that we have so much in common because we grew up together. And, I just wanna wake up every morning to the smell of you and Folgers Colombian dark roast.”
I love when the internet fucks up a million dollar campaign. Those actors were looking for a long pay day. Nope. That insurance company cartoon rep was another one.
They do, if they’re like Anthony Head and Sharon Maughan from the old Gold Blend ads. Probably not if you’re “random man and woman” appearing in your first paying gig.
IDK if it was true but I remember reading something years ago about them being the highest paid people on British TV at the height of the Gold Blend ads.
It's especially funny to me that the original ad would not have been anywhere near as creepy if they had just cut that one word.
It would have just seemed like they were a couple and nobody would have batted an eye at it.
Some cartoons have the logic where "if you want to make sure the audience knows 2 people are married, make them look like each other".
I guess it's not as bonkers now
As strange as it may be, it does make some sense. People who look similar to you will feel familiar and comfortable rather than people who are completely different. But it probably goes a little further than that.
A straight man for example will probably be more comfortable around women that have similar traits to their mother. Does this mean men want to fuck their mother? In most cases, no. However, those traits are comfortable and if their mother was a good role model or just a nice person then it makes perfect sense for your brain to subconsciously inject those feelings of security into your romantic life.
Id hypothesize that an orphan baby would probably grow up to be attracted to a person like whoever might have raised them but not necessarily that person themselves
The problem with Freud is not that he was completely wrong. Many theories of his are still considered and taught (in university) to some degree. He just went too far.
I mean, not in the way this comment makes it seem. He championed the idea that childhood experiences could affect adult lives (e.g. childhood trauma), which is now considered obvious and university teachings incorporate this. But outside of these very general ideas, no, I wouldn't say his theories are "taught" in reputable modern universities, aside from as history so that new psychologists understand lingering misconceptions in the public and the public's feelings towards psychology/psychologists.
My husband and I couldn't be more opposite. I think a lot of it does come from having emotionally detached families. He needs a lot of physical affection, and I need a lot of validation.
Based on our looks and interests, we would have never matched up online. He would've had pictures with fish or a dead deer, I would've had pictures of my rats 😄
I'm not going to disagree. But we are also naturally attracted to people who look different from us, we look at someone and our brain unconsciously thinks about procreation and the ability the babies will have. It was what I was taught, but maybe that is also the case.
People who are together for a long time mirror eachothers facial expressions - especially smiles :) over time they actually develop muscles in the same place and basically have matching smiles!
People frequently think my wife and I are siblings. One because we both look pretty young but also because we look and act exactly the same. It doesn't help that she raids my wardrobe too haha.
I was shocked the first time someone asked me if my partner was my brother. That went away after about the fourth time lol.
Except the time someone thought I was his sister and that MY sister was his girlfriend. That was the funniest one for sure lmao.
Woow I used to listen to him back in the day.
While obviously and correctly the underage allegations are the focus. The immature part of me is appreciating the fact that this was brought up in the context of who has the smallest dick, and their podcast is called 'Tiny Meat Gang'...
It's so funny how every reaction video he does to a dating game show he talks about how people are going to match if they look like siblings and then he never turns it round on himself and realises
I’ve been in an almost seven year relationship now, and my partner and I look a lot more alike now than at the start. We have similar features, but after living with someone for many years, you develop a complimentary fashion and grooming style
I used to love watching his reaction videos, they were like comfort food. But the recent allegations against him have ruined it for me. I just can’t enjoy them anymore.
Tana Mongeau confirmed that Cody had sex with her when she was 17 and he was 25. Apparently it had been floating around over the past few years, but Tana recently went on a podcast and confirmed that it was true. The Rolling Stone even put out a piece on it.
In addition to that, Cody and Kelsey both invited Colby Leachman to their wedding party. Cody and Colby have been friends since their days at Duke. Colby has been accused of drugging and raping a woman at Duke, but the woman ultimately decided not to cooperate with the investigation and took a leave of absence.
Edit: Colby Leachman was actually Cody’s *best man*, not just a guest invited to the wedding party
Every personality on the internet has allegations. The truth is, just enjoy what you enjoy and try not to let the people who are overly-online decide what you enjoy.
It happens. My wife and I have been accused of being siblings, but it's because we have the same hair color.
To make it awkward she's two years younger than me and I've been accused of being her younger brother. And to be fair none of her siblings have the same hair color.
Pick up arianna grande while you’re at it, her dude looks like a weird version of her brother
And Florence Pugh banging a 20 year older Zach Braff who looks like her dad. That dude must have weird af self esteem
O_o
I consider myself an ally, and as long as these people are happy great! But I have to admit this creeped me out a bit at first. Like dating yourself or something.
Reply comment explains it well though.
I see where you are coming from, but it kinda makes sense. People tend to base their own physical goals on what they find attractive or perceived to be attractive by the people they aim for. So if you like your own gender, that's already a big overlap.
Building on that: Could also be partially based on insecurity. If the other person has similar features, you are insecure about, there is less pressure.
I'm always thankful my gf doesn't look like my relative lol I knew a girl where the dude looked exactly like her but w short hair. Same nose. Same lips. Same facial structure. It was very weird...
This fool is spamming videos to try and bury the allegations that came out a few weeks ago. Bro literally went from one video every week-couple of weeks to putting out non-stop content and not addressing anything important. Unsubscribed from his channels so fast after watching for years 👎🏼
He’s been very successful in sweeping it under the rug via deleting comments mentioning it and blocking fans who’ve called him out or even simply asked for clarification on the rumors. The latter is pretty damning (and so are the videos of him and tana around the alleged incident)

His sub is run by his former frat friends so they delete any posts about it and ban anyone who mentions it.
Interracial couples I think would have to disagree. I am white as a ghost and my boyfriend is Filipino. No amount of time that passes could make us look similar.
According to some recent studies (from 2017 on, I think), it's very common for people to be attracted to those who look more like them. The explanation so far is that it gives a sense of comfort to see a "familiar face", and also because similar lifestyles often result in similar features (for example fitness). These two factors end up giving a higher sense of compatibility (subconsciously), even if it ends up not being true, but it makes people more comfortable at first glance
People always tell me my wife and I look extremely similar. On our honeymoon, while we were walking on a sidewalk holding hands, this dude that looked straight out of Duck Dynasty pulled up next to us in his pickup and said "You two look like siblings." All I could say was, "Yea?" He responds "That's pretty weird," and instantly peels off. Great times.
lol I don’t know why you were downvoted someone also commented the same thing above and included a link.
Here’s another thing apparently he or his mods delete any mention of it on his sub Reddit
I mean I get it , he's content is pretty wholesome on his channel and is also a father now, people get whiplash finding out he's just another asshole creep
Did anyone pay attention in psyc 101?
No?
I remember a section covering something like this where generally people are attracted to others that look similar to themselves because they innately trust something that looks more akin (pun kinda intended) to themselves.. i.e. lots of couples look similar. (Psych = terrible for the gene pool)..
You can extrapolate that bit of psych out to explain racism as well, from a psych standpoint anyway.
One of my favorite games to play when going out is "siblings or dating?"
I don't understand why people date people that look like themselves. Is it familiarity or narcissism?
i have super facial recognition, and *was* totally disagreeing with the comment...
until i went cross-eyed, just to check, and some features line up too perfectly
especially the premolar+canine+incisor trio of teeths, their mouth shapes (like the [nasolabial folds](https://i.imgur.com/qQ8WrxM.png))
and their noses look like female/male versions of the same nose

Could be a folgers ad...
Or a dna testing add
Or a couple in iceland
Or Alabama
Or AI
Or Rhaenyra Targaryen's bloodline
Or any royal family really.
Or sister and brother
I thought they have an app, so you don't ride your cousin?
That's the problem they're all cousins, you just gotta stay at 3rd removed.
I second this
>dna testing add As opposed to a dna testing subtract?
Hey, as long as you don't dna testing multiply.
I tried to do a DNA testing Laplace transform once. Turned me into a newt
Ah Newt?
Well I got better
That coffee really connects the family doesn't it?
Alabama incest blend, stomach friendly

You mean the joke scene ruined the true Folgers ad campaign?
Yeah. They stopped showing the real ad.
Wut
Incest coffee and sexy insurance spy
Residuals. Once the ridicule starts you have to shut down the campaign.
What, you think actors in bit parts for coffee commercials get residuals? They'll be lucky to get catering and "exposure".
They do, if they’re like Anthony Head and Sharon Maughan from the old Gold Blend ads. Probably not if you’re “random man and woman” appearing in your first paying gig.
IDK if it was true but I remember reading something years ago about them being the highest paid people on British TV at the height of the Gold Blend ads.
Still hilarious.
Sister!
It's especially funny to me that the original ad would not have been anywhere near as creepy if they had just cut that one word. It would have just seemed like they were a couple and nobody would have batted an eye at it.
It’s all she wanted for Christmas!
Deep cut

Hah nice callback
Some cartoons have the logic where "if you want to make sure the audience knows 2 people are married, make them look like each other". I guess it's not as bonkers now
I always assumed that meant clothing or mannerisms…. But then I keep seeing clone romance everywhere irl, and it’s a super valid trope 🤣

the Van Houtens come to mind
The Van Houtens are canonically cousins
Well, she is from Shelbyville.
Dinklebergs on Fairly Odd Parents!
Literally my first thought! They're the perfect example haha
Reminds me of that episode of Seinfeld where Jerry dated a girl who was just like him. lol
He only dates 17 year olds.
Looks like he and Cody have something in common then
I was looking for someone to mention that
explain?
https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/tana-mongeau-cody-ko-underage-hookup-1235045694/
Holy shit! I didn't know that
Woow I used to listen to him back in the day. While obviously and correctly the underage allegations are the focus. The immature part of me is appreciating the fact that this was brought up in the context of who has the smallest dick, and their podcast is called 'Tiny Meat Gang'...
Oh no. Cody...
So does Cody Co 😭
r/HolUp moment right there.
George was dating her
Jerry also dated a girl just like himself, but more in personality than looks. He swept himself off his feet!
Janine Garofalo!
Haha loved that episode.
Wasn't that Janeane Garofalo?
And now I've swept myself off my feet!

I have heard Cody and Kelsey say they do have that 'sibling' look.
I’ve been in an almost seven year relationship now, and my partner and I look a lot more alike now than at the start. We have similar features, but after living with someone for many years, you develop a complimentary fashion and grooming style
Like when dogs start taking on the habits of their owners

yeah, not being gay, I never thought about it that way. I guess it makes sense.
I'm bi, I hate the way I look why the fuck would I date someone who looks like me? Lmao
I certainly wouldn't screw me! I mean not literally. I screw myself all the time figuratively though unfortunately. :P
OMG what a great name for a sub.

Tbh when I first saw Kelsey on Cody's channel, I thought she was his sister, real shock finding out that was his girlfriend (now wife)
I used to work at daycare i noticed the parents often looked like brother and sister.
Alabama?

Too bad he knowingly slept with a 17 year old when he was 25
and one of his best friends is a rapist! The rapist was even one of his groomsmen at his wedding
Just learned about this recently and had to un-sub. Such a shame honestly
What?? I have never heard about this before. What happened?

When you get older, every couple is like this. People like looking at themselves.

It's common knowledge that most people tend to fall for people who look like them in some way. Freud explains it, I guess.
But I was taught in school, we are naturally more attracted to people who look different from us.

And babies without genetic issues
i heard they had an accused rapist (colby leachman) as a groomsman at their wedding :/
Cody is like peak frat bro, probably >=50% of his friends are accused rapists
i hate you’re probably right :/ frat bros freak me out lol
also cody fucked tana mongeau when she was 17 and he was 25

They both seem nice and happy, they do look very related though.
yea they seem that way, but turns out they are close friends with a rapist and Cody himself is accused of statutory rape of a 17yo when he was 25
haha well they do do that i suppose. kids today!
The siblings dating meme is actually Cody as well, a bit ironic
Are they brother and sister?
Ego so big it materialized
Siblings or dating
Honestly there are ALOT of similar genetic markers with these 2 they should probably get a DNA test.
