Hold up, so you’re telling me the Nodding Meme Guy, ie, the Jeremiah Johnson Nod of Approval, is not Zack Galifianakis? And you’re saying it’s actually Robert Redford? Mind. Blown. Verified TRUE at Snopes. We have awakened in the Mirror Universe. This completely shatters everything.

Or does it? We have naturally assumed over the years since the meme first appeared 2012 that it was Zack. Was it merely because Zack’s face and persona were a household name at by then and Robert was just “some old guy”?  If Zack shaved his beard would he look like Robert Redford? The possibilities are endless here. All that’s certain is that the Nodding Meme Guy is in face and fact, Robert Redford.
