Alex Christopher LaBeouf

Alex Christopher LaBeouf is the teen dream this time. While he was disturbed and analyzing the importance of hard labor at Target, he was probably oblivious that girls were discreetly filming him. He was, however, entirely wrong! Alex has become even more suave in recent months. He’s transformed into a powerful young man with treble the biceps that fans had come to expect. He no longer works at Target, of course. With 8,000 Instagram followers, a YouTube channel, and a tiny film role in Coming Home, Mr. meme appears to be conquering it all. Leg day is, in fact, a requirement!

Professor Tom Winter

This weird college professor may have been encountered by some, but academics are usually drier than this guy. What is his deal, exactly? Professor Tom Winter, the inspiration for the joke, used to skateboard all over campus and still does! He also doesn’t appear to mind the internet jokes about him. It turns out that his purpose was always to start a conversation about ecology and new routes of personal transportation. Tom, you performed a fantastic job. People are definitely paying attention now!
