I recognize the facial expressions. It’s the same one I get when someone says “smile” for a picture and then takes 20 years to actually take the dang thing. They look at the camera then back at you then click the wrong buttons then do over…etc By the time they take the pic you end up with the expressions above.
This is not awkard at all! This is your average Mexican American kids birthday party! I have have a pic like this but instead of my dad, it’s with my grandpa with his shirt unbuttoned
Not average! I’ve been to Mexican American birthday parties when I was a kid living in Texas. They like to have fun same as anyone else. This picture is just plain creepy!
I know!! You just want to gather up a bunch of fun people, some balloons, ice cream, an even bigger cake, and a boatload of presents and go throw a real party, y’know?
Uh, I think we should avoid meeting this family. They all look like they could kill someone if given the opportunity.
Forget the cake, its the deadly look in their eyes.
They remind me of that cartoon Droopy. He would always say “I’m so happy” while looking exactly like these folks. I’m getting the same vibe from them. I’m betting the cake just says “birthday”. Happiness is optional
If thats a birthday cake where are the candles, streamers, stupid hats, or smiles on anyones face? If it is summer I sure hope it isnt an icecream cake either. Lets hope the father doesnt cut the cake.
the looks of boredom, misery and horror on their faces reminds me of really old photos when the camera took a long time and everyone had to stand still forever and seem really annoyed about the process.
Honestly…this looks very much like a family from somewhere that’s just trying to do the best they can. Not awkward….a bit sad….but encouraging……Happy birthday little girl!!! *snif*

Put a candle in Dad’s belly button and blow it out.
This family is one-up on mine. In most of our family pictures (except the Winter ones) my dear dad was not wearing a shirt. He was Italian.

I think we need the back story
Easily one of the best hostage photos I’ve ever seen.
Boy…I don’t even know where to start here. o.O
Ummm safe to say, this is one party that my kids will simply hand the girl her present at school. Sad.
You have to admit … this is the epitome of ‘awkward.’ Definitely more creepy than funny, but still a perfect pic for this site. I love it.
Hey, what the hell is my dad doing on here?
I’m sorry you had to find out like this that he has another family on the side.
This is a modern-day Grapes of Wrath. Tom Joad, we need you!
Happy birthday, kid. Now go get me another beer!
WIN!!
Maybe is one of those fake guns that’s really a camera & they do’t know whether they’re going to cop a flash or a bullet.

Who’s birthday is it? and whats with the bowl of cheese curls? Great cake Happy birthday….
It looks like the cat walked across the cake.
Perfect! I laughed until I cried.
It looks a bit like a hostage situation.
“One…Two…CLICK…ok smile…Three!”
Hi, we’re Mr. and Mrs. Moperson.
this is our daughter, Molly.
It’s her birthday.
OK, bye.
“Take the picture or the girl gets it!”
Looks like someone dropped the cake carrying it and now they’re all pissed off.
Out of everything I have read, that makes the most sense…
After figuring out that the cake looked messed up I came to the same conclusion. But why get a sad looking pic with it?
It looks like a multiple mug shot….OMG what a gruesome birthday (?) or whatever, it must have been!
they must be related to the Mopersons.
WIN!
I’m sorry but my heart just breaks for that little girl. No one looks happy.
I know!! You just want to gather up a bunch of fun people, some balloons, ice cream, an even bigger cake, and a boatload of presents and go throw a real party, y’know?
The belly button is the window to this guy’s soul
LOL! Good one!
And the vault for the gift.
This iz mah happeh face!
Wow, they each look like they’re posing for their own mugshot. What a fun party! (Glad I wasn’t invited.)
Let me at least wipe my tears before you take your precious picture, Mom. Far be it from me to break tradition. There. Are you happy now?
The felt Elvis portrait must have been on the opposite dining room wall.

That’s another one of those ones thats just plain CREEPY!

Is someone pointing a camera at them or a gun?
best one yet perfectly describes this photo
Totally!!!
He IS dressed up… he’s wearing his birthday suit.

Looks like Dad will make you pay if you say anything negative about his cake decorating skills, and from the look on Mom’s face, she knows first hand!
I have to agree. They look afraid.
Wow…. wonder who’s birthday is was? lol
Happy birthday to you, life sucks,
Happy birthday to you, life sucks,
Happy birthday, I hate my life
Happy birthday to … oh, I give up…
the looks of boredom, misery and horror on their faces reminds me of really old photos when the camera took a long time and everyone had to stand still forever and seem really annoyed about the process.
This pic will prob one day appear in a true crim novel…..
Wow! Aren’t they the happy campers?
Wow, looks like that was a fun party.
lmaooooooooooooo
Happy birthday — or else!
That. Is. Depressing.
I agree. Poor girl.
Haha!! The little girl looks like shes protesting
“Mom! Mom! Is Daddy going to get me that baby sister like he promised?”
“It sure looks that way, Honeyl”
What happened to the cake and why are they so unhappy?
I’m too sexy for my shirt…so sexy it hurts….I’m too sexy for that cake….too sexy for that cake, so sexy it aches…
I think I peed a little
Let’s hope there were no “plants” near by….
Honestly…this looks very much like a family from somewhere that’s just trying to do the best they can. Not awkward….a bit sad….but encouraging……Happy birthday little girl!!! *snif*
i love how the look on everyone’s face is the same….”*ml”
I know: woo-hoo it’s my birthday?
That is just sad.
That is exactly what I was thinking, “How sad.”
I want to give the little girl a hug…
