Another day, another viral photo, this time a guy broke the internet with his chill skills as he sat reading the news, while the Starbucks began to flood.
Ok so, Hong Kong is going through an intense flash flooding season with rainstorms, caused by a super typhoon called Haima, which makes rain reach 70 millimeters per hour. One of the flooded areas suffering from the typhoon’s effects was a shopping center in the Chai Wan district.
Enough with the weather report, the funny thing about this is that a photo was taken showing an old man reading the newspaper in a Starbucks cafe despite the flooding. Just like every funny photo on the internet, it went viral. The Chinese social media nicknamed the daredevil old man as “Starbucks uncle.”
Things got better and better when Starbucks Uncle was joined by a young man with headphones, who sat there listening to music. The internet did its magic with its super photoshop skills and it’s just amazing. Enjoy!
