Photoshop Troll Who Takes Photo Requests Too Literally Strikes Again, And The Result Is Hilarious (17 Pics)

There are few photo editors on the internet who have made as big of a splash with their witty antics as British graphic designer James Fridman, Photoshop troll and wizard extraordinaire. Odds are that you’ve scrolled past one of his hilarious photo edits on social media without realizing that it’s him working his magic behind the screen.

James has become notorious for taking photo editing requests far, far too literally. Remember that episode from ‘The Simpsons’ where the family find and use a monkey’s paw to grant wishes, but they’ve all got twists to them? Well, that’s exactly what it’s like asking James for help! He takes requests very literally and it leads to all kinds of shenanigans. Of course, it’s all done with a smile and for the sake of some great humor (hey, laughter’s really good for lowering your stress levels).

Check out James’ finest recent photo edits below and upvote your fave ones, Pandas. And if you’re still hungry for some more literal comedy, check out Bored Panda’s other recent posts about the grandmaster troll himself right here, here, and here. Happy scrolling (and trolling)!

Just remember, if you’re a fan of James’s work, you should really keep in mind that you shouldn’t send him any photos that you wouldn’t want him to make public. There’s no putting the genie back into the bottle after you press the ‘send’ button.

Be sure to read on for Bored Panda's interview with photographer Dominic Sberna about the need to edit all photos for clients at least a little bit, even when you're not going for any major alterations.
