Someone shared an image of an old man sitting in a Starbucks coffee shop in Hong Kong completely unfazed by a flood and it inspired an awesome Photoshop battle. The customer was finishing up his coffee and newspaper and got nicknamed "Starbucks Uncle". Now the Internet is constantly finding new places where to 'feature' him.

Hong Kong is bracing itself for Super Typhoon Haima and is experiencing heavy flooding and rainstorms. It even got 70 millimeters of rain an hour during some point this week. One shopping center in Chai Wan district also suffered. That's where this photo was taken. Can you find a situation where this guy and his nonchalant attitude would truly shine? Submit your version below!

I guess this one should have been titled "Meanwhile, down on the Lido Deck...."

I see 'Starbucks uncle' has put down the paper, and another chap has joined him! They even added an 'EXIT' sign
