        These references are getting so obscure that they are referencing games I played and I still don’t recognize them. I don’t even remember that character after you showing him to me.

          I mean, GTA V is the most profitable piece of media/entertainment ever created in human history. it’s not that obscure

            No but remembering exactly how a character from it looked 10 years later is.

        Wow its like a spitting image of him. It’s probably been a decade since I played the game but I don’t recall him being a very likeable person.

        The caption should read “heist” instead of robbery though. If I were that kid’s teacher, he’d be getting a B- for that joke.

          I actually found his character to be one of the more likeable ones. He had issues but he’s kind of one of the few characters who looked out for Franklin and call Michael out on his shit. I’d have considered the comparison a complement, lol.

          Yeah, I might have gotten the joke if they said “heist.” Probably not, but maybe.

          I never played online (maybe he’s more present there?), and he’s only there for a few missions, so I’m not going to remember what he’s wearing, esp if it’s just regular clothes.
