not surprised he wrote the original 'it' book with that ending
Dialogue
Overview
The meme presents a side-by-side comparison of famous horror author Stephen King, playing on the double meaning of "the 70s". The left panel is labeled "Stephen King in the 70s", showing a photograph of a young, long-haired, bearded King from the 1970s decade with a wide, wild-eyed, unsettling grin. The right panel is labeled "Stephen King in his 70s", showing a contemporary photograph of King when he is over 70 years old, with gray hair and glasses, sporting a knowing, similarly uncanny smirk. The title jokes that his consistently eerie vibe makes it unsurprising he wrote the horror novel It, which has a famously strange and divisive ending.
