Weeney Roast
“Me being an Uber Goth teenage posing next to tombstones unknowingly covering the ‘S’ in ‘Sweeney.’ Kind of ruined the mood of the photo!”

Pole Position
“This is me (on the pole), my impressed sister, and my disappointed mother circa 1984. My dancing career never took off but I guess there’s still time.”

Gello Shot
“My 2001 school photo. In order to perfect this aesthetic masterpiece, I put a massive amount of gel in my wet hair, then I bent over and swung my hair around and blow dried it upside down until the gel hardened completely… I got a little lightheaded each time, but clearly worth it!”

Glamorous Shots
“I was 12 years old and wanted ‘Glamour Shots.’ My parents wanted to save money so we did them at home and this is what we came up with.”

Get Jorty
“My family took a trip to the Big Island in 1997. I’m full of angst in a Nine-Inch Nails shirt, my brother is in a Ying-Yang shirt and my dad is sporting jorts. It’s a classic!”
