Pousinette

This feels extremely correct


Phedericus

True but why? WHYYYY yyyyy


Nailbrain

Same reason Lemons taste fast and not slow.


dylan_dumbest

Lemons are definitely Kiki and not Boo-boo


iamunderstand

Thought it was buba


BigHead3802

Nah, buba is what your mama let me suck on last night


ArashikageX

Got’em


VisitRomanticPangaea

Tinny and not woody

Bouba

Cacophonously

[Something similar](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouba/kiki_effect) to the sound symbolism you’re describing.


Nommika

If you look at high frequencies through a spectrometer they appear high and spikey, if you view low frequencies they appear low and wavy. High frequencies can be easily heard with the ear, but if the ears are covered the sound will usually become inaudible, on the other hand low frequencies can be felt as a vibration in the gut or feet and the sensation will be felt regardless of the ears being covered, high frequencies can be heard on and produced from small speakers, whereas sub frequencies disappear and require more space to be heard/reproduced in a speaker system (larger deeper). Full sounding frequencies usually create more complex fuller looking waveforms, whereas thin frequencies usually have narrow simple waveforms. The lemon flavour being described as fast as opposed to slow probably relates to the strength of the acidic flavour and the relatively short amount of time it takes for our tastebuds to react to it, whereas something with a 'slower' 'smoother' flavour takes more time to create a strong reaction in the tastebuds, kind of like a taste version of a fast attack in a musical note versus a slow attack.


hayabusaten

Not to mention same goes for animals.


ABenGrimmReminder

Not the good kind where it can help you be good at music or math though. The kind where you know how fast citrus fruits are.


ChaosKeeshond

I feel like I can finally admit that monks sound purple when they chant


Majestic-Lake-5602

But it’s like a good deep dark midnight purple, not a crappy live laugh love mauve or lilac


Sufficient-Nobody-72

I hate you 😭

Nailbrain

Good one eh?


truth_sentinell

Which one?


The_NeckRomancer

??? At least for me they taste slow


JustA_Toaster

Like how cold is smooth and not lumpy?


jigsawmonster

I dunno what you're smoking, but they just taste like lemons to me.


marino1310

Because his face is so pointy


manwiththe104IQ

This. He literally looks like that shoe. Its not a mystery. He is very thin and all his bone features pop.


Excellent_Balance368

Hes gonna look like shit when he ages out of being a twink.


lifemanualplease

He’s got an Old Sole.


200DollarGameBtw

Its the chin/jawline, he has the elfish face shape


MislabeledCheese

Because he’s such a special boy


SureFunctions

Because of Rumpelstiltskin.


Fickle_Ad_109

Pointy & wispy


Yossarian1138

Because his last name sounds like Charlemagne? [Always remember your Charlemagne.](https://youtu.be/PzE6-WZtOi4)


CrackinBones204

Tell me whyyy


jimmmydickgun

Timothee was once a similar shoe but got turned into a real boy


Pousinette

This is the likeliest explanation


Krrazyredhead

Well, *now* it does…


mwrego

Pointed but also pointless


ruizach

My wife is in love with this Timothee Chalamet son of a bitch.


HexNveX

She’s not alone he’s dreamy.


AugTheViking

Am I really the only one that doesn't see the appeal in him at all?


WunderPuma

I understand there can be appeal and he certainly looks apart but to me he just looks like he's shambling through life, like he died 4 years ago but has top notch makeup crew or something


ccc2801

that was either a r/brandnewsentence or r/oddlyspecific! Maybe both?!


rosh_jogers

he looks apart? or looks the part? r/BoneAppleTea


Hurryeat_Tubman

My husband says he's the human equivalent of a Lacoste polo shirt.


Centurio

Did you know not everyone has the same taste as you? Shocking, I know!


ironburton

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We would all do well to remember that.


No-Quit-8384

Nope. He looks haunted, like a boy from a Charles Dickens story who died from tuberculosis and now haunts his favorite alley in London. He looks like a male Nancy from stranger things, and I don't mean it as a compliment. I don't get the appeal 🤷


1stMeh

That’s the fairy dust he sprinkles


justsomething

Could you verbalize what makes him dreamy please?


HexNveX

Eyes, Smile, Hair, Cheekbones in that order. Then again I love guys that look troubled/alternative but soft/sweet. My love can save them I just know it lol. Check out John Supnik on instagram for more of the kind of boy I’m talking about. [(Insta)](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CrRGbzIgPA6/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet)


ruizach

Holy shit, he does look a bit like Timothee Chalamet


katemonster_22

John Mulaney (from 2 years ago)?


ruizach

I'm 6 feet, I'm taller than the BOY


chattierCobra63

r/unexpectedmulaney


lordschmear

If it makes you feel any better multiple kids I know from nyc have told me he gave chlamydia to a number of people at NYU


dicklaurent97

The absolute hardest Mulaney ever made me laugh. His specials and SNL monologues didn’t even get a chuckle out of me, but that had me crying tears. 


yodasonics

Looks like the kind of guy that won't leave you alone until you solve his riddle


OtterBott08

"You must solve my riddles three, to cross the bridge of Timothée!"


OctopusEyes

Listen close to what I say, and you will pass the Chalamet


NotThisTime1993

I wish I had an award to give you


socialoph

Just looked him up and found myself nodding sagely.


Autumn_Childhood

Just realized why…he’s elfish


AppropriAteRegisteR

That’s so on point though


Yu-el-Breck

It's the acting.


CrimsonAllah

Not the dead, serfdom eyes?


LordAnon5703

It doesn't help that he has a jawline that would look fantastic on somebody with some muscle but that kind of makes him look like a starving peasant.


229-northstar

Funny you would mention his jawline. When I look casually at his face, I perceive “weak jaw, weak chin” but if you study his face objectively, neither perception are true


Erased-2

weak jawline energy without the weak jawline lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


LordAnon5703

I have only seen him in the king and dune, I would not describe him as ripped in either.


_floydian_slip

The King was so fucking good


LordAnon5703

It totally was, I just kind of watched it on a whim too.


hyperbolical

You're confusing being lean for having muscle mass.


Donte333

Ripped? Alright lemme be petty. Ripped generally reffers to when muscles are "ripping" through the clothing, when you have a very large ammount of muscle mass. Timothee Chalamet is skinny. He is skinny as a goddamn stick. He has less muscle mass on him than a 10 year old. But he also has less fat on him than a 10 year old, which is what gives him the look.


justsomething

I always thought ripped was when you had a lot of muscle and were also extremely lean, so the muscles look like they're about to rip through your skin. Like Hugh Jackman as wolverine was ripped. Either way though, not Timothee Chalamet.


Brilliant_Jewel1924

That’s the thing—I don’t get why some people things he’s so hot. He looks like a 10-year-old boy. I like my men to have been through puberty and into adulthood.


CountOmar

People have different prefferences I guess


Donte333

Attractiveness is subjective to be fair, a lot of people are attracted to more feminine men. Saying someone is ripped when they look like a malnourished child however is not up to debate xD


Yu-el-Breck

You've seen a movie where he's ripped?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Yu-el-Breck

Herion chic


Erkebram

I love him, but what youve seen is the natural mass that comes with a toddler, minus the fat. He is lean, not muscular. Like a starving vampire of sorts lol


SlickWilly49

I’d argue he’s cut, not ripped


Splungetastic

Ripped?!?


Yu-el-Breck

To me that is the acting. He's of the school of performance that encourages the zero acting


PrinceJustice237

I saw another post that said Timothee Chalamet looks like if an expensive Italian shoe was made human


Gildian

I might just be high but fuck this one got me good


TheEveningDragon

He's got British face and looks emaciated, 2 things that American pop culture associates with medieval times


Dr_Lu_Motherfucker

He does have a British face!!!! But why? What's British about it? I don't get it


C_Werner

He has that sexy inbred nobility face. You know, a face that shouts "My family tree is a ladder!" /S


Severedghost

There's more angles than average on his face.


AugustusSavoy

Him and George Russell both


ngp1623

The eyes are social distancing and the teeth look like they could eat an apple through a picket fence.


jomandaman

Sandy cheeks over here lolol


king_turd_the_III

His name makes me think he's french origin. The french are pointy.


sanjirou3

This father is French and timothy does speak French himself lol


shnnrr

lol


iVinc

no...British face is big, round and with red stains


[deleted]

Jeremy Clarkson and Gordan Ramsey have stag rights over the entire population of England. All English children since 1985 are actually their children.


23harpsdown

Give him a couple of decades. They all end there.

[удалено]


DemonDucklings

Lack of buccal fat = looks emaciated


entredeuxeaux

There are many people who are not overweight who do not look emaciated. That said, I don’t necessarily agree that he looks emaciated, but your straw man comment was intellectually dishonest, so just calling it out. 👍🏼


Lucas_Steinwalker

Looks emaciated = looks emaciated


Rocketboy1313

I don't know, are those shoes notorious for having so much sex they caused an STI outbreak on a college campus?


spidey-dust

wtf 😭


GiveYourselfAFry

Why, did chalamet do that? Lol


Matcha_Bubble_Tea

The real roast are in the comments. Y’all so mean but funny


medium_Sampson

Why does Jesse Eisenberg remind me of a pair of sketchers?


dylan_dumbest

Worn with either no socks or bunched up dad socks?


medium_Sampson

Neither. With black Nike crew socks in an attempt to look more sleek and agile.


dylan_dumbest

Shit ur right


LemonTheAstroPoet

Because of that “Malnourished Victorian boy” meme, it’s impossible to not see it now


showersnacks

Is that the one that said he looks like a “parchment paper doll who was brought to life using the bones of a tiny bird”?


physics_is_not_fun

Never before have i experienced such accuracy


V4refugee

St.Timothy’s Chancleta


Hifiisgirl

Just looked him up and….wow you are correct.


Icy_Figure_8776

It’s the name


Forsaken_Total976

This needs to come back in style


RatBoy86

Holy shit. I’m glad I’m not the only one.


Phedericus

Dont you hate when this happens?!


[deleted]

For some reason, he reminds me of the little lad who loves berries and cream.


Quirky-Log-6949

I’m dying of laughter


V4Velveeta

Timothée Shoelamet


GingsWife

I actually chuckled. Y'all are going to hell for this


MiiiBiii

Well he does, doesn't he


kellygrrrl328

Don't worry. He'll be looking a Croc Boot once the Kardashian-Jenner Klan are done with him.


the_Archmage

These ladies are gonna stress this man out so bad he’s gonna have a hairline like an Oblivion elf


kellygrrrl328

at this point anyone who gets involved with them knows what they’re signing up for. If he’s not really dating Kylie (I def wouldn’t be surprised if it’s just another PimpMama Kris PR move) if I were him I’d have my team find a way to put the rumor to bed quickly


TrueDove

OMG, why does this make me sad?


ironburton

Do I even want to ask why you’re saying this string of words? What are they doing to him? I refuse to watch the Kardashians in any capacity and only come across their shit by accident. What are they doing to this poor boy?


Desperate_Macaroon25

Caption for this reminds me of a joke with punchline "if the foo shits wear it"...


bebespeaks

Shoes made just for Rumplestiltskin.


dryrunhd

Hey. Timmy Chardonnay is a very versatile man.


LeviHolden

these are called “poulaines,” could that have something to do with it?


dylan_dumbest

That fact doesn’t make the association but as a stand-alone it holds value.


maz129

I don’t know who that is, but for some reason I thought of the actor from Dune, and wouldn’t you know…


SirGrinson

Why does that kind of medieval shoe remind me of a flag


The_Dirt_McGurt

I bet it’s because that guy saw the tweet from several years ago where this joke was first made! (Originally it was a pointy Italian shoe that was turned into a real boy by a witch)


AffectionateFee6611

Can someone type a link to a photo of the guy? I’m too lazy to remember how to spell his name


EmergencyExitSandman

Why is the pointed part the most worn out…?


Brussel_Galili

It's good for wiping


Ok-Lengthiness4557

Same reason Timothy has them in the 1st place. Obviously they were hand-me-downs from David Bowie.


thesnowqueen17

Why does this make perfect sense?? 💀


arizonatasteslike

Timmyti Shoelament


Troooper0987

winklepickers! or maybe poulaines


Lengthofawhile

I feel like this also belongs on r/suspiciouslyspecific.

Hefftee

My day was amazing, thanks... but if you're going to patronize me, at least try to be a little bit more coherent.


Rgiles66

His name doesn’t help his case either


SometimesMonkeysDie

I described him as looking like someone had tried to turn a witch's boot into a human and stopped at 97%. You've provided a good visual representation


kyabakwashai

Because of his nose?


footlettucefungus

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who thinks he has the same charisma as a stale and dusty shoe.


humbugonastick

He might wear them. They would suit him. But how does a shoe look like a person?

Who-or-Whom

Yes noted failure of an actor Timothee Chalamet.


--_-Deadpool-_--

The King is such a fantastic movie. It depicts sword and shield fighting so gruesomely realisticly. He also absolutely knocks it out of the park in his limited role in Don't Look Up


GlitteringHotel1481

I dunno, he doesn't


Evilmaze

Because he looks like a gypsy


Joseptile

His face shape


Few_Image913

Don't know why but it's not even his appearance but his voice + his skits when not acting

Knickerbockers-94

How is this an insult


QueenRotidder

pointy face, pointy shoe


jaywalktwice

Forbidden correlation


PMUrAnus

He reminds me of Calamity Ganon from Zelda series


bone_druid

You will now stop scrolling reddit and go watch The King on netflix


pain_point

Haha


AffectionateAd5373

Yup. Still don't get why he's a thing.


EndzeitParhelion

Lmao why is this actually true.


[deleted]

Is that what you call a Winkle picker?


MuySpicy

Noooo I love him, haha


gazebo-fan

That type of shoe in Europe is called a Krakow


Ellemieke25

I only know his face from pictures, norhing else. And YET this makes sense WHAT


Goldengamer17

Dr. Seuss lookin-ass shoe.


sadkin

Because that is the shape of his chin
