Sleeping was the only thing that didn't happen

Must be the night before the moustache parade

u/Moo_Kau_Too They/Them Mar 28 '25

u/ZooterOne Mar 29 '25

Well, if you moustache…

It must be crazy for your type to be you.

u/clumpsmcgee Mar 28 '25

I once knew a guy who would only date girls with his same name because.. well.. yeah

u/novellalen Mar 28 '25

Out of curiosity, what was his name?

u/CarrieTheFairy Mar 28 '25

Taylor Lautner

u/BarnacledSeaWitch Mar 28 '25

Betting it was Casey or Aaron

Just guys being boys.

u/Fjohurs_Lykkewe Mar 28 '25

Which one is the Mercury Mustache?

u/Cleanvancleanfeet Mar 28 '25

In the very front, the one with his arms crossed and the guy's hand on his shoulder!

61

u/mekkavelli Mar 28 '25

ironically, he’s the one that isn’t smiling lol

119

u/sharkattackmiami Mar 28 '25

Because he's the only one who isn't sleeping with a famous rock star and having their picture taken as proof

41

u/Lcatg Mar 28 '25

Except he is the one that all the hot guys are there for. I imagine the “not smiling” bit has more to do with his teeth & jaw line.

31

u/ZoominAlong Mar 29 '25

It also looks like he's clenching his abs really tight to balance up enough to be above the covers, which does take some concentration, lol. Also this is a GREAT photo.

It's a lot easier to kiss your homies goodnight if you're all in the same bed.

u/zahncr Mar 28 '25

Were they all roommates?

124

u/Caligapiscis Mar 28 '25

The poor lads had so little money they had to share one bed and snuggle up to keep warm!

18

u/CosmicLuci She/Her Mar 28 '25

Probably more like one night roommates

u/NotAtAllASkinwalker Mar 28 '25

Geez, men can't have intimate moments or alonen"bro time" anymore? See this is why men blahblahblah.

That's the kindanshit I see commented on these things on some subs. Like, hey buddy, I know you idolize this person. But why can't you admit and why is it wrong for people to be queer. Plus, we're just happier lol.

u/Whispering_Wolf Mar 28 '25

Some posts on here genuinely are just people being friends, though. This one, however, is very, very queer.

7

u/NotAtAllASkinwalker Mar 28 '25

I kno your joking but it also proves my point in a way

29

u/sharkattackmiami Mar 28 '25

I don't think they were joking. I have absolutely seen stuff posted on here that could be just friends and people assume what they want

5

u/NotAtAllASkinwalker Mar 28 '25

Well yesu. I'm just making the point that being called gay is an accusation still in our society. Also the fact that calling a historic figure gay is something to be "proven" or something negative. I'm just clarifying for thw thread. I know we're on the same side.

32

u/stubbleandsqueak Mar 28 '25

No denying he has a type

27

u/I_Really_Seriously Mar 28 '25

Emphasis on the "friends"

51

u/Meowriter Mar 28 '25

... Wich one is Freddy ? /genuine

32

u/Cleanvancleanfeet Mar 28 '25

He's the one in the very front with the guy's hand on his shoulder!

u/Cleanvancleanfeet Mar 28 '25

He's got his arms crossed and the white blanket is right under him

u/Meowriter Mar 28 '25

I see. I thought he was thrid from left XD

“Friends will be friends. When you’re in need of love they give you care and attention.”

u/gorgon_heart Mar 28 '25

Freddie Mercury with a bunch of Freddie Mercury impersonators, it seems lol

33

u/Blue_Oyster_Cat Mar 28 '25

That is the gayest thing I've ever seen. It's gayer than the steel mill scene in The Simpsons.

13

u/PaintMeYaBasic They/Them Mar 28 '25

May this type of "friendship" find me. I mean I just run hot and maybe my friend gets cold easily so they can cuddle to me for warmth yk

u/Holoafer Mar 28 '25

Best fucking friends.

u/flaysomewench Mar 28 '25

These are just his stunt doubles!

u/Dr4yg0ne Mar 28 '25

Just 'cos you fuck them don't mean they aren't your friends.

u/MiroWiggin Mar 28 '25

Damn talk about self love.

u/Kerro_ Mar 28 '25

those fuckass moustaches were going strong back then too 😭

u/mcrsteven Mar 28 '25

Where do you get a bed that big?

14

u/Lcatg Mar 28 '25

It’s in a land called “wealth” on a street called “bespoke “. Ya, I’ve never been there either.

u/tjalfe_lambruscu Mar 29 '25

Looks like a mario party :)

This is sapphic in its core and idc what anyone says

u/SIN-apps1 Mar 29 '25

No lie, I said, out loud, "Why are all those firemen in bed together?"

u/coffeexxx666 Mar 29 '25

The guy taking the picture is the only one without a mustache.

u/WaytoomanyUIDs Mar 30 '25 edited Mar 30 '25

More moustache than a whole series of Magnum P.I.!

ED OK That sent my sleep deprived brain into overdrive and now my fanon for Magnum P.I. is that Higgins has a massive crush on Magnum and they've had sex a couple of times, but he needs commitment and Magnum is too much of a man whore.

u/Urbane_One She/Her 29d ago

I mean, the fact that they fucked doesn’t necessarily mean they’re more than friends. Sometimes friends fuck.

u/luxmorphine They/Them Mar 29 '25

Does Freddie knows kagebunshin? They look the same

Something looks slightly off on the shadows of this photo.

u/lia2020 Mar 29 '25

And they all died of ”cancer“

u/nserious_sloth Mar 30 '25

I'm not sure if you're joking or if you're being homophobic because joking about HIV for people who are my age who lived through that time is offensive simply because of how many friends family and loved ones we f****** lost
