Saturday Night Special: An Awkward Situation
July 24th, 2010
When the people speak, AFP listens. Never before have we been the sent the same photo by so many. So with that, we dedicate this SNS to “The Situation” and by that of course, we mean three turtlenecks ready to burst at the seams.
(submitted by everyone)
yo that’s wicked! wearing a turtleneck is like getting strangled by a really weak guy all day!
At least give credit where it’s due…RIP Mitch Hedberg, the writer of the line you used.
I’ve never heard the joke before, but I thought of Mitch Hedberg immediately when I read it! RIP
LOL – I miss MITCH!
add a backpack to that, and it’s like a midget trying to bring you down! WOW never knew he died! I always wondered why I hadn’t seen anything new by him.
Wearing a backpack and a turtleneck is like having a midget on your back who’s slowly strangling you. Mitch you left tooooo soon. Love ya man.
Dufrane…..party of two Dufrane….party of two
RIP Mitch Hedberg
Love Mitch!
Dude, you are my hero for quoting Mitch.
Actually, no. Mitch is my hero for being so hilarious in the first place. RIP man…
Well, I had never heard of Mitch Hedberg before until reading these comments. Of course I had to check him out, just finished listening to his “Do you believe in Gosh” CD — funny stuff.
what? no fist pumping?
Oh my…
Some may think that’s “little sister” in front …. but it’s actually Snooki before the pouf!
Gym Tan Turtleneck….
Let’s do this handkerchief!
“The hater juice is best served cold.”
One of my favorite TV shows!
The photographer used bad lighting, or these guys are way too pale even for the winter.
This is just what he looked like before he became romantically involved with a tanning bed.
Jersey Shore?
Same wavelength.
Wow – its really that guy? haha
He reminds me of Pauly Shore – alright Pauly Shore with good abs, but still Pauly Shore.
The situation looks cuter pre tanning days anyone agree ???
I was actually going to say that Sitch looks kinda foxy here. Don’t get me wrong–I don’t really think a turtleneck is a good pick for any man. . . it’s not the wardrobe. But it’s rather nice to see a pic of him where he’s not rubbing his abs appreciatively. Awkward as it may be, he looks in this photo like maybe he can read, and doesn’t particularly look like a massive d-bag.
Omg I’m dying. Lol
LandsEnd had a turtle neck sale!
I think they are standing in front of some time space portal from Star Trek.
It’s beautiful. Reminds me of the Jersey shore *sniff…too crowded down the shore right now.
It almost looks like one of those cut out photo backdrops where people stick their heads through.
Maybe that’s an idea for an AFP promo. Make stand-up cutouts of the best photos for people to stick their heads through at your book signings (and congrats on your new publishing deal with Three Rivers).
LOL I agree! It does look like their heads are poking through a cutout!
GTL….Gym, Turtleneck, Laundry
Good one Steph! Ha ha! I love GTL even more!
I meant Stacy
Holy crap Megs. My friend of 15 yrs just called me Steph on the phone today. WT*?
Ah yes, that wonderful apparel of torture … the turtleneck sweater. Guaranteed to make your neck itchy and red within two minutes.
Pecs of the gods…
is ‘the situation’ the one on the right, or the center?
The one in the middle. The guy on the right looks a lot like him though.
He is in the center.
3 Neat Guys & a Spiffy Gal (Anyone remember SCTV’s 5 Neat Guys?)
Didn’t realize there was such a thing as a turtleneck muscle shirt.
All things are possible with large enough pecs!
I don’t get it. Are these people famous?
Why was it submitted by “everyone”?
The guy on the right is the “celebrity” from Jersey Shore
Thanks.
Actually it is the guy in the center.
I want to scream at the 3 guys: Take off your shirts–Take off your shirts!!! Yummy!
My first thought wasn’t about the turtlenecks…..I looked at the pic and immediately thought of “Three Men and a Little Lady”.
I don’t get it. What is so awkward about this photo?
This is posted under celebrities. Forgive me, but which one is the celebrity? (Perhaps I live under a rock?)
No, you are just not an idiot like the rest of us who watch Jersey shore on MTV. Consider yourself a better person for not knowing who “the situation” is.
Thank you kindly for the explanation. I will keep myself under my rock for the time being.
Ouch. You stepped on my foot.
ahhh, now I get it. It’s even funnier. I just thought, yep, that is quite a situation…
Wow, Fisher Stevens looks really young there.
OK. Who’s boyfriend is in the pastel blue? He’s clearly not blood related.
If someone hadn’t point out the middle one is him, I would have guessed all three.
Oh my God – a picture where The Situation DOESN’T look like a d-bag. (And is it me, or does the girl in the middle look less lke Snooki and more like Sweetheart?)
“I mean this situation is gonna be indescribable, you can’t even describe the situation that you’re about to get into the situation.” – From the Situation
Now that’s poetry.
Turtlenecks should never play the staring role in your wardrobe choice for the day.
Isn’t this like in Full House where the girls had 3 dads
My Three Jersey Shore Dads….On Fox this Fall!
haha
I don’t know how many of you actually watch the show but Mike “The Situation” is in the middle and his sister, Melissa, is in front of him. I don’t know who the other guys are.
And yea – this is way before the GTL days. LOL.
