What's the Lore of this picture? And why is the Hugh of his skin...off?
This picture was taken B-4 he was in the show.

Are we doing "whoooosh", or leaving that behind?
ah leave em alone. or explain it. "haha you dont know the thing I know" never did much for anyone really..

I'm very ok with leaving that behind. It was pompous and unhelpful. But you can pry the puns from my cold dead hands!
Leave it behind. It fosters an environment that ridicules people trying to fill in information. I always found that subreddit toxic af.
If they only whooshed uppity bastards it would maybe have been ok but it's more of a "huehue guys look he's not getting this obscure in-joke, guys. upvote's to the left".
He's an android from an old TV show. His name is Data and the skin tone is meant to given him an inhuman quality.
Lore is a reference to the show.
