A black-and-white historical photo shows Charlie Chaplin in his iconic bowler hat and mustache, standing on a sidewalk and looking toward a woman walking past him. He appears distracted, while another woman stands beside him. The overlaid text claims Chaplin created the 'distracted boyfriend' meme in 1922, humorously attributing the modern internet meme to his 1922 film.
