There’s hardly anyone who hasn’t seen the “Distracted Boyfriend” meme in some of its variants. Photographer Antonio Guillem captured the same model many times, and Ernie Smith has recently started a Twitter thread showing that she is always wearing the same facial expression. The fact that the girl is “easily shocked when looking at screens” has become the topic of the thread, and it has quickly gone viral.
You know the girl on the right, don’t you?

Ernie replied that his job involves a degree of photo editing, so he spends a lot of time on Getty Images. After posting the photos he found, other users started posting the ones they found interesting, along with some jokes.

Of course, there are plenty of photos where the girl wears different facial expressions. But for some reason, Ernie stumbled upon her shocked face and all of a sudden, Twitter was on fire. It’s all in good faith, and I hope you had a bit of fun with this thread.
