If you are imagining me as Manchester United goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce cosplaying as a navy seal, I regret to inform you that you are imagining me very differently than I actually appear, given that I am a man and couldn't last 5 minutes on a WSL field.
Bold of you to assume that I don't still imagine my online friends whose irl appearance I'm familiar with as their profile character. Heck, I now share an apartment with someone I originally met online and when I happen to be thinking of them I sometimes imagine them in-character despite seeing them in person all the time. It's like a weird mode switch thing where if Im thinking of them in some "common" context like shopping I imagine how they actually look, but if it's some less everyday context that I'm thinking of, like inviting them to an event of some sort, I often imagine them the way they present themselves online instead without really thinking about it.

I really am a white woman jumpscare.
I don't use pfp, because I'm conscious of my Internet fingerprint. It's ok if you imagine me as a shadow person, I prefer it
I imagine you as Tom, from Philadelphia.
I don't know who that is. Perfect!
"so you low-key (quietly) imagine them as their profile picture"
Did I get that right? I struggled on this one for a while and think I need a lie-down now
THANK YOU.
I might be getting too old to understand these "may-may" things
Correct! Good job! 👍✨

I wouldn't mind if people do that for me. My pfp is much prettier than I am. At least for now lmao
I never imagined most of my guy friends as cut anime girls, but now it's a hilarious image!
It always screws with my head a little when someone's pfp has a different gender
Why are you cutting anime girls
I still don't know how to set my pfp
There is no outcome I would enjoy more than everyone just imagining me as my profile picture.
I am a cat, sure
The pancake mix box doesn’t have “Not a good source of protein” written on it, whether or not it actually is. Also, my pfp looks exactly like me.
that seems statistically unlikely but I can keep an open mind
Yes my profile picture is accurate, uhh I mean meow
