Lester Crest from GTA V is the guy who plans your heists.

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.

[–] CmdrShepard49@sh.itjust.works 29 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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.

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.

It's literally the actor they used for the role lmao

[–] Mozingo@lemmy.world 2 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Uh, no, I don't think that's Jay Klaitz.

Why do you say that? It looks exactly like him

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

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.

[–] SoloCritical@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago

He’s also not a character I would be thrilled to be confused with lol

Deeper and deeper. Way down.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This quote is from Office Space? Does he also look like the hypnotist?

But every is saying this is a reference to a gtav character. I’m confused.

[–] falidorn@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Yea that’s what came to mind first. I had completely forgotten about the GTA V character.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 hours ago

I like your reference better. I don’t really remember the gta character.

Does this legally qualify as a cosplay??

[–] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

IANAL, but it's hard to say.
