School Photos
Keep Your Eye On The Ball
“My brother threw a ball at my eye when I was 10 years old and it was picture day two weeks later. My eye stayed like this for 4 years. I was also in Special Ed at the time. I think this is why I became a stand-up comic.”

You Better Smile
“My son wouldn’t smile for a camera. So on this picture day, as I took him to preschool, I told him he’d better smile for the camera. When I came to pick up the photos, the teacher pulled me aside and said that the photographer was in tears, and this was the best he could do. At first, I was a little mad that my son couldn’t pull out a real smile, but it’s quickly become my most cherished photo.'”

Merry Christmas, Mom
“My daughter made this at school for me. I believe that the teacher made an epic fail when telling my daughter what words to hold up for the photo.”

No, It’s Not A Wig
“This is what happens when your mother chops off your beautiful, long, thick, Crystal-Gayle-length hair the day before school photos in Grade 2. And check out the glasses. Didn’t realize I was cross eyed until this picture surfaced 33 years later.”

Librarian Chic
‘This is me in 3rd grade (1985). I loved Garfield, so I have a picture of him on my glasses. My mother cut my hair. The sweater around my shoulders makes me look sophisticated and fashionable.”

Shaving Is Cool
“On the morning of my first grade picture day, I thought it’d be cool to shave my face like my dad. He gave me a fake razor but when he left the room I used his real one and went right over my brows. Makes for a great memory at least!”
