Post a picture of yourself holding a common household item:
Here's me and my phone (and my drinking glass). I am wearing a tuxedo because it's an excuse to wear an ascot:



Fun!

1. With the technology available to the average computer user today
I am going to magnify and enhance the numbers of the Neiman Marcus credit card on your desk.

3. Whaddya mean "MY" Neimann Marcus card?
That's the card I boosted off an old lady's cold, cold corpse outside on the flophouse sidewalk.

Sometimes I wish someone WOULD steal my identity. The one I've got sucks (And I forgot to keep the receipt!)

4. He looks like he's being crushed under Earth's powerful gravity...
Was he born on Phobos? Deimos perhaps? :)

5. I understand the tuxedo. But why are you wearing a "soul patch?"
It makes you look like an ass.

The ass of an art critic, to be specific.

A Houston art critic.

Named "James."

For instance, I would not be surprised if you an SotB Paul are now sterile.

15. Why thank you!
Unfortunately, since this pic cuts me off below the waist, you can't see that I have elephantitis of the shins and an extra elbow protruding from my right hip.

Ugly!

I think it resembles a pubic thatch to him, and thus.....the obsession.

25. That second link doesn't work.
I'm sure you're tired of DUers telling you that you're attractive, so I won't.


Are those velvet pants, by the way?


Chemistry sucks. I pursued a degree in sophistry (never graduated)

Have you not seen the massive popularity of velour pants among girls? They're awesome. I think J Lo started it.

27. Nah. I'm still processing the sudden popularity of hoop skirts
and letter sweaters. My ability to grok fashion trends got stalled and started hovering somewhere over 1957.


Hence the ascot in my pic.




(They're nice pants.)

32. For me, it depends
on the woman and the type of glasses. I definitely like the stereotypical Lisa Loeb look though.

Was Weezer really around before Lisa Loeb? I forgot. Good band though. Perhaps you're biased toward your fellow or former classmate.

butterfly clip, too much makeup, and really bad tank top & shorts!

now the younger pic...I am super cute! :-) Here's another pic to cement the opinion...

actually, I think the slinky pic was from my 13th bday, since this is from 8th grade and the hair is the same. I just hadn't gotten rid of the braces yet in this one...

43. Kind of a "sad" one...
I'm holding a little Democratic donkey right after the election in November. I think a Democratic donkey might be more common a household item than a corn snake, but I'm just guessing.

Yes, I had been crying. I thought it was a poignant picture, if nothing else. :shrug: Maybe it's just a silly picture of a red-faced woman with no makeup who had just been crying her eyes out. :)
