Was the Distracted Boyfriend meme actually born in 1922?
No. But check this out. There's an image going around Reddit right now that looks remarkably like the famously disloyal man -- and it's from the 96-year-old short film。 Pay Day, which stars Charlie Chaplin. 。

Now, against my better judgment, I am considering replacing the original Distracted Boyfriend with the Charlie Chaplin version from now on. For one thing, everyone's outfits are much better. For another, I haven't seen the latter image every day for the past 10 months. Plus, vintage!。 。
Thanks, Charlie Chaplin, for inventing the internet! 。
