We now know what Victoria’s Secret is!
Need backstory….won’t rest until I get it…….pleaasssseeee
Strip poker at grandma’s?
You know, I’m listening to Zappa and the Mothers’ “Call Any Vegetable” as I’m looking at this photo, and when you take into account that the compound bow is just out of sight, it all makes a certain amount of Kafkaesque sense.
Oh, and I’m also sitting here in my underwear, of course.
“If you’re nervous about public speaking, just imagine…”
LOL at this!
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…
Would the owner of this family photo PLEASE come forward?! We NEED to know the story behind this!
Again, WHY, just why?
Maybe those are the people who attended Marney’s fabulous thanksgiving dinner!
this is what happens when you don’t bring the regulation sized casserole dish.
This pic also provides an answer to the age-old question: Boxers or briefs?
Boxers? 8
Briefs? 4
Indeterminate = 1
The answer is Boxers!!
HeHe. Why are 2 of the women wearing boxers?
Has anyone else noticed the fashion faux pas? If you are going to wear your black bikini (Lady on the far right), I think your casual shoes should either be taken off or exchanged for a matching black pair… I love the way the clothes are piled on the furniture at the right…
You realllllly need to start requesting explainations for these photos and posting them a few days after the comments so we can see who even remotely came close to “WHY???”
Why does everyone look incredibly stiff?
)
More importantly why is Grandma the only person that DOESN’T look uncomfortable?
maybe they are cardboard cutouts?
awkward
how did they get this idea ? besides, they look very serious for almost naked people 
I think the guys kneeling in front are pretty hot.
For a bunch of people standing around in their underwear. . .they’re surprisingly solemn.
I’m just really happy that the guy in front wasn’t wearing loose-fitting shorts. This would be an UBER AWKWARD photo!
i was thinking the same thing…i mean i know what the view is like when the hubby hangs out in his shorts…….”hangs out” UH HUH HUH *commence beavis and butthead giggling*
Okay, this Homeland Security stuff has gone way too far. Someone needs to call their Congressional representatives and complain.
The real question here is who idea it was, but it’s a bit obvious according to facial expressions.
HOld it…I’ve got the reason! Maybe they….no, it was because….no, oh hell, I got nuthin. It’s just weird and we have to live with it. (forever, in our minds, haunting us with NO reasonable explanation) Would anyone like to carpool to therapy?
Wait…can you photoshop clothes OFF?
is this the wedding party for that newlywed couple in the underwear a few pics back??
I’d like to know how many people chose not to be in the photo!
How EMBARRASSMENT!
Or…. embarrassING….
So wrong in so, so, so many ways. I could make this entry as long as ‘War and Peace’ and that would only scratch the surface of the wrongness of this, and then only superficially.
It’s time for another round of “Odd or European”…
Heh!
bahaha!
European! Definitely!
I’m goin’ with European!
…I take “ODD” for 300, Betty!
They are not necessarily mutually exclusive. I’m voting for odd Europeans.
OK – here’s the scoop. A skunk got into the house on Christmas Eve and made an awful mess of things. The family all had to wash their clothes in tomato juice (at the same time). Since they had nothing else to do while they were waiting for their clothes to dry – and this family doesn’t believe in giving clothes as gifts, it was – “Hey, gang, let’s try out that new camera Uncle Bob got for Christmas.” And now you have…the rest of the story.
I ‘m speechless,too, but I think I figured it out.
It’s the practice pose for the whole family for tomorrow’s celebration of Gramps & Grams 60th Wedding Anniversary
Only possible explanation: they lost a bet.
Photographer: “Okay, family, time to pose!” (Heh, heh…what they don’t know is that I’m using the Clothes-Erase Camera that I invented so they’ll all appear to be posing in their underwear! This will be the perfect photo to market my camera!)
A slumber party gone horribly, horribly wrong…
Sauna night?
FIRST
What?
Doesn’t matter if you post first, if what you post is something inane and stupid like “first”. But it REALLY doesn’t matter if you aren’t even the first poster.
Awkward.
LoL…
I DO beleive..they are part of the polar bear club…come on family for the group pic before we all go jump into a lake…
This must be the wedding party for that grandparent couple holding the naked baby.
ROFL I think you got it!!
LOL!!!
NObody in this picture thinks this is a good idea. The only explanation I can come up with is that somebody was holding a gun on them.
they have to be breaking some kind of law here.
I just don’t get it. Why would they all agree to this? Why would they want this taken?
It’s just too weird.
Stunned silence awkward.
Seriously, I think we’re owed the backstory
Second the motion.
Is this why moms always say to make sure to wear clean underwear?
priceless!
Like so many before me, I am left confused and speechless. Yet fascinated.
Yes, @Danielle, they obviously are swingers. Because that’s what swinger do, take group underwear photos.(snark)
Besides being a bit of a fashion nightmare, I don’t see what the big deal is. It’s just some people standing around in their undies. What if they were wearing shorts and sports bras (not the guys) obviously? That would cover just about the same. Judging from their looks, I can’t really see much of a resemblance between any of the people. Are we sure any of them are actually related?
But more troubling, why is the typical American knee-jerk reaction normally body shame? And why do Americans feel the need to inflict this on others? Must dress the heathen natives … uggh.
Simmer down now.
I’m not really sure where group underwear shots are ever considered the norm…
Killjoy.
(1) To each his or her own, but are you saying that you would be 100% comfortable taking a photo in your undies with your extended family? Or heck, complete strangers for that matter?
(2) Body shame and boundaries are two different things. Neither of them are featured in this photo.
Actually, I don’t think I’m every 100% comfortable around people clothed … people are insane.
Point is, if they were wearing sport bras and shorts, nobody would have a problem. Or if they were all wearing swim suits (2 piece) or trunks, nobody would have a problem. Is there fundamentally a difference in the amount of flesh that’s covered? What’s the difference?
no, i think it would still be awkward if they were all sitting around at home in their bathing suits. at the beach would be a different matter. in any case, sport bras and shorts and bathing suits have a function. you can do stuff in those. but to take a picture in your underwear means everyone had to strip down!
hahaha
Okay, Uggh, we believe you! I am eagerly awaiting the submission of the photograph of you and your entire family, including Grandmother and Grandfather and Uncle Milton, in your underwear–because that’d be no big deal, right?
Oh, and I am not American and still find myself surprised and bewildered at this photograph, to say the least.
I don’t think I would really care. Not that my family was nudist or minimal-clothing, it just wouldn’t bother me that much I guess. You’ll have to take this on faith that I’d react this way … most of my family is gone. Which tends to happen if you live long enough.
I’d accept a vintage snapshot, no need to worry yourself. I mean…we all have vintage family all-underwear snapshots around the house somewhere, don’t we? I know I have a great daguerrotype of my great-great-greats in corsets and union suits with the bum flaps.
If not, you could always take one with all your frien–er…nevermind.
Oh, please. Body shame? No, fashion shame.
And the older couple in the middle with their arms around each other and holding hands? Yeah, I’m pretty sure they are related. As for the rest of them, sure it could be strangers paired together age appropriately to be the couples children and grandchildren but I’m going to with the slightly more sane conclusion that they are a family.
I meant genetically related, not “related by marriage”. You obviously can’t look at 2 married people’s appearance and see a resemblance, since more localities have consanguinity laws.
When I said I saw no resemblance, I meant nobody looked like anybody else’s parent or sibling or cousin. I did notice the older couple in the center and the couple immediately to their left touching and I guessed like you did that each of the pairs were in some sort of dyadic relationship.
Grandpa’s tighty-whities may be unfashionable, but nobody else’s underwear seems that bad.
Uggh- Get over yourself. We make plenty of fun of people with clothes on, too.
I wonder if they attend family counseling all together in their underwear too??
OMG!!! this gives me the LOL”S!!!
Gives me the WT*’s!!!
Why????
OMG!!! Yes, this has got to be THE most awkward family photo of ALL time!!!!! How can generations of family members pose together for a picture IN THEIR UNDIES, mind you….and all look so serious?? Maybe it’s the Hanes family….?
lol
It’s OBVIOUS, people… the one holding the camera is the one who WON THE BET.
You know whats just a little more awkward than the photo its self… is every person in this photo seems 100%ok the thought of standing in their undies with grandma and grandpa…
That’s exactly what I was thinking!!!!
at least they had the decorum to draw the curtains!!
Darn it, why couldn’t the nearly naked people in this photograph be the same ones from the extremely attractive 30 people headpile with the baby?
Excellent question!
Maybe this was sent in for Dove’s real beauty contest! hehe
This sounds like a very logical explanation!
The girl on the far right has an amazing body. You go girl!!! Work it now!!
Yes, but awful choice in shoes — they so don’t go with the outfit!!
oh lord, you’re right. I didn’t even get down to the shoes.
Contrast that with the guy on the LEFT !!!
Oh, oh, oh…brain freeze…
