Justin Bieber Versus Pietro Vermigli

Hey, I’m Justin Bieber And??? Hey, I’m... Italian Reformed- Aristotelian Pietro Martire Vermigli!!!

A four-panel meme contrasts Justin Bieber introducing himself with a group’s unimpressed “And???” response, followed by a historical portrait introducing the far more obscure Italian Reformed-Aristotelian theologian Pietro Martire Vermigli. The joke is that Vermigli’s grand, overly specific self-introduction is treated as more impressive than Bieber’s celebrity status, making it useful as an absurd intellectual reaction meme.
