The Band-Aid
“This is my first grade school picture. I was still healing from a very nasty bike wreck where I completely ate it on a huge hill and took a big chunk out of my forehead and broke my middle finger, among other general road rash nasties. I guess it didn’t bother me too badly- either that or I had the fake smile down-pat. I have to give props to my mom who ordered a complete package of photos from this year just like every other… giant band-aid and all.”

Sugar High
“My in-laws took our son and nephew to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl. They stopped to get a picture together, they had no idea they were standing in front of The Hustler Club.”

Smile
“This is my freshman yearbook photo. I was tired of having unflattering school photos year after year, so I decided to try and make this one as ugly as possible. Success.”

Harriet Potter
“This is my 4th grade school picture- it was in the yearbook, the one I gave to my friends, family, grandmas, even my 4th grade crush. At the time, I didn’t think anything was wrong with my smile. There are tons of pictures of me as a kid around that age where I smiled like that. It wasn’t until I got older & looked back that I realized how utterly ridiculous I looked. I also think the glasses just tie the whole thing together. I truly look like Harry Potter’s long lost sister.”
