1. Maybe...I don't know.

I don't usually keep the unflattering ones.

Edited to add that I don't think you could possibly look bad!

5. They're already posted all over the internets
But I guess that's what happens when you spend most of your free time dressed like various cartoon and video game characters. :crazy:

8. my psychotic ex gf
used to keep sending me digitized collages of pictures of me all the time. some of them are really weird.

i thought about posting one of those, but i cannot bring myself to reveal my identity on this heavily-scoured (by psycho rw'ers) website.

10. No one looks their best all the time
Edited on Mon Oct-24-05 10:01 PM by Oeditpus Rex
More importantly, we have to remember that a camera captures only two dimensions of us from a tiny fraction of a second. It's the rare photograph that's really indicative of who we are.

So, Pri — g'hed and post a bad one. I bet every one of us can still find something really great in it. :hug:

On edit: I was like three minutes too late. And I was right. :loveya:

17. Lol, that's Alinak (Al), our 12-yo Husky/Malamute, waiting to check
out (and then totally ignore forever) a dog house that was given to us that I had just repaired. He's blind and arthritic, so he apparently didn't want to be cooped up in it. Luckily, it didn't go to waste, because I put it in the driveway and all the neighborhood strays used it during thunderstorms.

18. I love huskies and malamutes...the closest thing you'll get to a tame wolf
He looks beautiful, from the back at least...and I can just picture all the strays huddled in that little house during a storm...that's so sweet!

19. Here's a look from the front, with Boomer and my wife
Boomer actually was (He's gone now) part wolf, - a samoyed/malamute/wolf mix.

13. I did once.
I posted one once after work where I had no makeup and had been up 24 hours. Still looked good if I say so myself. :D I just have decided to only have my somewhat incognito gallery pic now.

27. Holy shit... look it is my prom pic..


I paid six bucks for the outfit.. Yes, I am sporting sneakers. And no, I'm unsure of what the hell my ears are doing.

circa 1997

Perhaps the worst photo of me ever.
