How's about an EMBARRASSING pictures thread?

Whether it be a pic of you with your head in the toilet after a long night, or a high school picture disaster, or a fashion don't.

Go ahead. Post them. I dare you.

Here are two I am not proud of. First was around 1989 (best friend cut out to protect her identity

) Nice boots, losers!

Second was 1991/92, junior year school photo (before I discovered tweezers, obviously.) Hi hair!

Man, I thought I was the sh*t!

Hope you all get your laugh for the day.

OK, I'll bite. Here's me on the last day of 8th grade-- 1983-- all decked out in my flip hairdo, large glasses, and Fleetwood Mac tee shirt (which i only broke out on special occasions- I didn't wanna wash it too much!) That shirt was not considered cool in the least, BUT it was the last day of school, so I didn't care.

The picture next to that is of my room at that time-- after your eyes adjust to the blinding yellow walls, you may notice the little pics of FM all around my mirror (along w/ U2 and led Zeppelin.)

I have come to the conclusion that I have WAY too many embarrassing photos of myself. This album is one big laugh.

Oh. My. Gosh. Paula!!!! See, but it was the early 90s so it was totally cool. I hate to see what everyone will say 10 years from now about what we're presently wearing and doing to our hair

Oh man...that's classic. But has the room changed all that much?

The walls are no longer yellow LOL. Although that's my parents' house so I have no control over that!

Right now in my house I'd say the kitchen, basement and a bit of the LR and master bedroom have FM stuff in it. Actually that pic of my room was from 1986, not 1983, I just checked the date.

Wow - from the stuff you posted in the 'Apology' thread, I was expecting ... well ... Dolly Parton.

And I had the same shirt -- it's the one with the baseball & their signatures on the back, right? (I never understood the baseball reference, especially for the Mirage album, but anyway...) Except I wore mine ALL THE TIME. That is, until the Wild Heart tour, when it was retired for my deep maroon 'Don't Blame It On Me...' shirt with hot pink lettering.

And here's one of me from 1989. I'm the guy behind the embarrasingly huge glasses.

Dude, i was about 14 there. They got bigger. Not Dolly Parton big, but bigger.

Actually my shirt did NOT have any sigs on the back, what the %&$@?

Big glasses were in for such a long time, it seems....

Too funny! I will have to dig up some old pictures and find something good. I know I've got alot of them from the party days

Funny, I was thinking about starting a drunk ledgie picture thread a few days ago. Embarrassing pics is a little more appropriate though!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!

I used to have those glasses, only much, MUCH thicker and MUCH uglier.

We were on welfare when I was little (up until I was about twelve) and when I would go to get new glasses and an eye exam, Mass Health would pay for the glasses. Unfortunately, you couldn't pick the glasses you wanted, they hauled out a tray of about ten pairs that you got to pick from. I called them "Welfare Goggles." HUGE frames and the lenses were as thick as coke bottles. They weighed my ****ing face down and if you were to look at my old school portraits, my head looks like it's about to just drop down at any moment under the weight.

Thank the stars for Alain Mikli. I don't know what I'd do without those glasses.

I think you look cute

Nice pics everyone - I wouldn't call them too embarassing at all

I wouldn't either. This thread would be 100 pages long if I posted all of my embarrassing photos. ie, almost every photo taken of me is pretty embarrassing. I will do a "best of crappy weird smile bad shirt ugly hair" school pics, though. It really is a kind of series.

By the way, I kinda thought everyone's pics were pretty cute

Especially, well, compared. Paula? I love the big mane o' hair pic, i think it's cute. Everyone else looks pretty cute, too.

Seriously - I thought they were all cute too.

Embarrassing is picking your nose during a ballet recital.
