July 11th is Cheer Up The Lonely Day. Originally, I was going to pull a bunch of pics of people, animals, and objects looking hilariously lonely. Then it came to me. The Lonely Island.

We’ve been pretty nostalgic here at COED lately. Earlier today, we showed you candid pics from the 61st and 62nd Academy Awards.

Can you guess the identities without looking at the captions? See the pics after the jump!

You may look at yourself from a picture that’s 10 years old and think to yourself, “Wow! I looked so different from then and now.” From the 1990s until 2010, some of the most famous people in the world look exactly the same. I guess we should have listened to our parents when they told us to eat our vegetables.
