In this Photoshop masterpiece, Fridman photoshopped the wrong dude out of the picture ... or did he cut the right guy out of her life after all?

#3 Photoshop Creme de la Creme

When you first behold this artwork, you might be wondering "Well, what's so special about this?" But as you take your time, inspecting every inch of Fridman's original work, you discover a tiny "F U" in the lower half of the picture. Her hand might not be holding her middle finger up, but her foot surely is.

#4 Critical Approach Conveyed Through Photoshop

Well, think about what the background would look like, if "the guy watering the plants in the background" didn't do his job? Fridman doesn't simply do his job, he excels at it. Or, as Twitter user @setrashx comments: "u're reallu good at ps."

#6 Say no More

Yeah, taking pics on public transportation is usually a bit awkward. Lucky for this user, Fridman comes to her rescue and simply photoshops the train pole into her hands. That's exactly what she wanted, right?

I didn't know lakes weren't a cool background. Then again, I'm not a member of Gen Z, so what do I know.

#11 Your Wish is His Command

Her face didn't even look round in the first place! Fridman still altered the image she sent him and did just what she wished for. Kinda mean, though...but you gotta know what you're in for when you want Fridman to edit your selfie.
