The Dropoff
“During family photos at the beach, the baby wiggled too much so my great aunt dropped him… everyone else realized it except my brother and cousin.”

“This was prom 1993 in Rhode Island. I was a freshman and my boyfriend was a senior. For some reason, we didn’t quite fit in at the dance… ”

Furries
“Since it was one of our first “Major” holidays as a family, my mother decided it was a brilliant idea to take as many family photos as possible. Naturally, we all had to match. Sure, we have the good ones where my step dad here is actually wearing a shirt… but he doesn’t have a fur vest like the rest of us. Someone had the idea for him to wear *his* fur vest, and thus this picture was born, which includes me laughing with tears in my eyes. Believe it or not there is a huge portrait of this on a wrapped canvas above my mother’s bed to this day.”

Writing On The Wall
“I’m the dude. This was from our engagement session. That graffiti was too perfect to not do a prom pose in front of it.”
