When you look at photos of you back in high school, what do you see? More likely than not, you see a wide-eyed child with a mouth full of metal, a face full of acne, and a heart full of hope, yet to become jaded by the injustices of everyday life. You probably see a boy who shudders at the sight of a woman and who puked on his date’s foot in the limo on the way to his senior prom after a couple pulls of Captain Morgan out of a water bottle.
Oh, just me? It’s cool, I’ve come a long way–I drink my Captain straight out of the bottle now #Progress.With that said, there was always one guy in everyone’s high school who was covered head to toe in body hair, had muscles growing from his neck, and whose voice was deeper than a V-neck on the Jersey Shore.
You know the dude, and if you don’t, let me offer a visual representation: 2019 4-star hoops recruit Jaren Phillips. I kid you not, this man is only 17 years old.

A 6-foor-four-inch, 17-year-old doing grown man things.

If I took a time machine back to 2004 standing outside a liquor store, there’s a 100% chance I’d ask this dude to buy me beer.
Judging from the responses on Twitter, I am not alone.

I give this guy two years before he wakes up and everything hurts for no reason at all.
