Is it me, or does the boy’s smile look a little too fixed? Can you imagine being him and having your friends see you in a pink dress in your photo over the mantelpiece?
I am so curious about this picture! Why would they wrap up in their mauve puffy curtains for this photo shoot? Why would they make a boy wear a pink curtain? And who is the second lady looking on? This curiosity…its like an itch you can’t scratch.
Mom figured if she bought an oversized pink dress both she and little Tommy could fit into it, and the family Christmas shot would be that much more festive.
That’s the EXACT same color that my senior picture drape was. Not nearly as classy as a black one would have been. My younger cousins referred to it as ‘the picture of Kelley in a pink towel’. That and the perm exemplify 1981.
His expression seems to be “yeah…yeah right’. Also…they could just be scratches but I think I see little rays of white hate shooting out of his eyes at his mother…

That was my thought too, Jesse. At the least it looks like Mom and the boy are naked and wrapped up in one bedsheet together. Oy.
Breast Cancer Awareness togas?
oh.my.god. what is this? whoever submitted this, an explanation is needed!
YES PLEASE! I was thinking that same thing. I MUST know!
What the hell?
I don’t think those are three distinct pink togas. I think they are all wound up in the same pink bedsheet.
Rice Krispies on my monitor….Brilliant comment.
This is all they had to wear after the taking the plunge family stole their clothes and their barrel.
Good one! Dad and the other kids didn’t make it.
The inventor of Pepto Bismal nor John Belushi ever in their wildest dreams ever thought this day would come…
I looks like someone tried to slash the picture.
that’s just plain weird
Ohhhhh boy. I got 100 bucks that says this kid got beat up at school a few days after this photo was developed.
I can’t wait to tell my kids about a new idea for our family Christmas photo!!!!

Those are some darned artistic togas…..I suppose that was something useful to do with your hands in therapy.
WINNER!!!! Shut the site down.. lol

…weird.
Only one knot for two togas? What is the significance of this????
This is just strange. On many levels.
Ave Pink Caesar! Maybe the Gladiators will wear plush armors…
They have spiderwebs clinging to their eyelashes… or the son clawed at the photo when he saw it.
ok….this is just weird.
So many pics lately have not met the definition of awkward in my opinion. This, however, could replace the album cover. Wow. And ewww.
Sometimes I wonder how photographers keep a straight face.
This may be carrying Breast Cancer Awareness Month TOO FAR!
This is the only comment that has even helped me make sense out of this apparently senseless photo!
Winner! Most Awkward Award. Agree Rebekah, I’m speechless.
That poor kid is like “If I close my eyes, maybe it will all go away.”
that is just WRONG
WHY??
Sometimes, I can sort of wrap my mind around what the photographer was thinking.
This is not one of those times at all.
Looks like the photographer was three sheets to the wind, too.
Winning pun! lol
That’s hilarious.
*Snurk* good one Dono1
What the….?
It adds a whole other layer to the term “going Greek!”
Really? Wow!
Mom figured if she bought an oversized pink dress both she and little Tommy could fit into it, and the family Christmas shot would be that much more festive.
“Mama’s don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys”!
I don’t think you have to worry about that with this kid.
The most awkward aspect of this picture? They are sharing the same sheet…
Are they all um, sharing like, one tablecloth here?
I don’t get it. 2 mothers? Mother and sister? Mother and grandmother? Complete strangers? So many questions!!!!
i’m with Rebekah.
Mom is really thinking…”this would have been great if junior hadn’t left the red sock in the laundry.”
Just tell me why??!!
Toga, Toga, Toga ………. Mom?

I would love to hear the story behind this one! Most bizarre.
This photo leaves me speechless.
The ability to shoot laser beams out of his eyes makes up for it though.
Nice
Uh…..
maaaahahahahaaa
Disturbingly Greek!
I think that will be Roman! Though why they are wearing curtains is anybodies guess.
I’m speechless.
Thats exactly what i was going to say! This one is SO awkward I am totally speechless. Yikes!
