Eman Suleman is a great grandmother from the 1940s and the internet loves her
Eman Suleman, model, actor and great grandmother? While she might not be old enough to be a grandmother yet, she has become the Pakistani internet's fake great grandmother from the 1940s and is giving us quite a few laughs.
Suleman recently posted pictures on her Instagram account from a photoshoot for Étoile Brilliante.
The pictures, meant to look yellowed with age, were posted with the caption "Isko koi Puranay Pakistan mein utha kar phaink day, please Someone please throw this back to old Pakistan, please".
Well, ask and ye shall receive, Eman Suleman. User ShutupShehry turned her into their great grandmother from the 1940s on Twitter.
A lot of people were fooled by the joke.
But then the sweetest thing happened.
A Saudi man who restores old photos restored the picture of Suleman and no one wanted to tell him it was a joke.
Eventually, though, he caught on.
But that doesn't detract from how nice it was of him! It also gave the jaded internet a few laughs and made them go aww.
In fact, a lot of people had jokes about ShutupShehry's "grandmother".
The resemblance is uncanny, almost as if she was his sister.
His grandmother is famous!
And still roaming the halls.
Suleman shared it too!
For those of you who didn't get it, the joke is a Twitter trend where you post a black and white or sepia photo of a someone (often a celebrity) and pretend it's your grandparent. Here are some funny examples:
This guy's grandmother went to Hogwarts.
What beautiful grandparents. They look like movie stars.
They look so happy! But you know what they say, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham...
This looks like a couple who know how to get away with murder.
The internet never fails to make us laugh and we give it 10/10 for this joke.
