The Shady Bunch

“While we were never the type of family to sit for a studio portrait, someone stumbled across a coupon and decided to give it a shot. Mind you, this is the ONE AND ONLY family portrait we ever took. I am on the bottom left with the too-big-for-my-face white fashion glasses and the poorly chopped bangs and I vaguely recall that we had a family meeting and decided to try and look “cool” — hence the sunglasses and the emotionless faces. I’m not sure what’s more entertaining: the fact that no one is wearing sleeves? Or that there is an honest to God ALF t-shirt being worn in all seriousness?”

Folded

“My brother and I in 2010 when our mom brought us to get family photos done at Walmart! I convinced her I should be allowed to wear my soccer jersey that said ‘Magnuson Ford’ because they were our sponsor. She was PISSED when we got the photos back and discovered the jersey had folded like that.”
