Get my wife's spaghetti out of your mouth.
This is fucking beautiful.
Most inspiring thing I've ever seen
Yes. Yes it did.
It's just Will's head in a pan endlessly eating meatballs... or are they eating Will?
Get my wife's spaghetti out of your mouth.
Maybe you should tell your wife to stop putting her spaghetti in other men's mouths.

Just amazing how fast this has improved in just like... a week. From an AI generated sitcom with Biden and Trump with a demo to this. It's a still nightmare fuel, but holy crap, that's indeed recognizably Will Smith, and that is indeed recognizably spaghetti.
Recognizably Spaghetti is my new band name
Its pretty wild to see the progression of the technology in real time through shitposting.
The last mile of technology is usually the hardest. But where it plateaus is what tell overall impact on society it will actually have.
Probably will involve more shitposts i imagine...
Well this all was a terrible mistake.
