Actor, Rob Lowe, took to Instagram with a sweaty post-workout selfie conveniently right in front of all of his acting award nominations, that has fans thinking he was trying to slyly brag about his professional accomplishments.
“Parks and Recreation” star, Rob Lowe, recently shared a noticeably sweaty post-workout selfie on Instagram.
And rather than being called out for his sweat — which could, frankly, gross a lot of people out — he was called out for something else instead.
Fans are convinced that he strategically took the photo in front of all of his award nominations hanging on the wall.
He’s obviously proved that he has bragging rights, but it seemed a bit unnecessary.
Fact check: Robe lowe has had 19 nominations in total, for various acting awards over the years.
Most notably, he was nominated for six Golden Globes as well as one prime time Emmy .
John Lowe, Rob’s youngest son, commented on the photo — calling him out for displaying his Emmy nominations in the background of the selfie.
I have mad respect for him not letting this slide.
But of course, Rob clapped back at his son, calling him “kiddo” — the ultimate burn.
By this point, however, other fans started noticing the nominations hanging on the wall as well.

Some fans questioned whether or not the nominations were even real.
I mean, they could very well just be random certificates. There’s no way to verify what they are for sure.
But knowing Rob’s track record, I’m gonna go ahead and assume they’re real.
Most of all, fans were bothered by the fact that the frames of nominations are crooked.
Somebody needs to let Rob Lowe borrow their level. He clearly doesn’t own one.
I mean, it was really bothering some people.
Myself included.
Especially knowing how much money he makes — where was his interior decorator for this?
As you can see, there are four emmy nominations hanging behind him. All of which are crooked.
If you’re going to brag about your accomplishments on Instagram, you should at least make sure they’re displayed neatly.
Other fans were more distracted by the fact that Rob’s caption was reminiscent of his character, Chris Traeger, from “Parks and Recreation”.
“If you’re not wet from your workout, you’re probably not working hard enough!,” he wrote .
So, there were literally dozens of comments like this one. Literally.
He was literally the best character on Parks and Rec . Don’t @ me.
Okay, I’ve said “literally” enough times — you get the picture.
Some fans were even digging up direct quotes by Chris Traeger.
For those of you that haven’t seen Parks and Rec , Rob Lowe’s character is a health nut — which is why his caption was so hilarious.
Oh, and he says “literally” a lot.
His whole shtick is saying “literally” and being constantly concerned for his health and fitness levels.
He first appeared on the show in season two, and Chris Traeger has had our hearts ever since.
Here’s another hilarious Chris quote that basically explains his character in a nutshell.
I wish I cared as much about my body as he did — he was truly an inspiration and, of course, a stroke of comedic genius.
Anyways, that’s all. Thank you, Rob Lowe, for making my day.
