Well, the shout for me says "refusal" and the text "incomprehension"

Image definitely needs to go. I would be willing to vote BUPKIS on this one.

Hi
I'd say pull it for quality alone...noticeable artifacting.

Seems clear to me even if you don't know what Alesia refers to. He's clearly in denial about whatever it is.

Agreed, he's clearly in denial about something, which means the image is good enough to qualify as Keep Until Better Image Suggested. Would still like to see a better one, but it's not actively harming the page.
No, the other one.
Fan Myopia version of history. And about who they are to begin with, even if it's a very popular comic. It's also more about pure denial than obliviousness. I'm voting pull.

The description says it's about refusal more than obliviousness.

Not technically JAFAAC. Does Not Illustrate, probably, though it's hard for me to tell that this is active ignorance rather than passive.
An Ear Worm is like a Rickroll: It is never going to give you up.
No, the other one.
But there's nothing in the image about that's about his refusal to believe where it is, which is the trope. He just refuses to answer a question by what seems to be lying, or that he simply doesn't know and has no reason to know but is just annoyed at the question, which makes him come across as closer to Suspiciously Specific Denial than Selective Obliviousness.

Hi

He's pretty clearly too passionate about the subject to be oblivious.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
Hi
The clock's up. I swapped in a sized-down version of the pic...it's still artifacted, but it's a little bit of an improvement. Locking up.
The image is obtuse enough that it requires a link to Wikipedia in the caption to make sense. Or a strong knowledge of history. Either way, I'm sure we can find something better, and I think just leaving the page imageless would work too.
