Identification notes
What is known
Found image supplied for The Shadow Zone: a captioned still of Shinji Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion, frowning and holding a mug of coffee. The caption above is a monologue addressed to Asuka, beginning "knock it off asuka. I don't need you to tell me how good my fuckin coffee is ok?" and swerving to "It's the dead rei clone in my garage." The text parodies a well-known film monologue in the characters' voices. An iFunny watermark sits in the corner. Maker, origin, and date are not recorded. The exif scrub reported no location metadata to strip.
