Santa Shamed

“The thought was, if Santa stood behind the chair, my daughter, the youngest, would be happier. Santa didn’t quite understand, and looks like he’s peeing on the tree.”

Miss Piggy’s Wardrobe Malfunction

“Just a good old shady Santa pic with an innocent little 4-year-old, a creepy Santa and a scantily dressed Miss Piggy! Even more disturbing, why does the costume even have those body part sewn on?! And why did my in-laws not notice this? I’m not quite sure this wasn’t taken at a pool hall instead of the mall like they claim!”

Throwing Shade

Semi Perm

“We live in a rural super small town in central Illinois. My Aunt who had moved to the ‘big city’ (Chicago) went to beauty school. She came home to visit with her home perm set. We were all impressed.. She set it up in our kitchen and permed me, my mom and my 3 siblings. I had the longest hair so she just did my bangs. Mullets weren’t even a thing yet!”

Full Body Jacket

“It was the 90s and our grandpa brought us to a Chinese Ice Sculpture event in São Paulo, Brazil. They obviously weren’t ready to provide coats for kids.”

Frank-N-Swine

“My mom thought it would be funny to dress her son as ‘Frank-n-swine’ for Halloween. She was right. 1989.”

Uneasy Rider

“My son Wille has never been a fan of fun rides. He is 17 now and still doesn’t like it. (I’m the one in blue, the one in red is my sister).”

“Big Bird”

“This was my second birthday party, November 15th, 1986! Apparently, this was supposed to be Big Bird. But clearly, this is not Big Bird. I would think I would be more frightened (given the lack of eyes!!!).”
