Pictures of you

Maybe it would be less excruciating if you broke them up into frozen vanilla yogurt, om nom.

[Jaglavak]

Wow. It's amazing how you've managed to hide the homocidal glint in your eyes. Sorry to be the one to tell you this, but you look... almost respectable.

But it's all well-earned. The cookie situation alone should have you resting on your laurels. And 90 is quite correct: you clean up right nice indeed.

[Roo]

Whoa Plink! There's a good-looking guy in your picture!

It was so much easier to picture the guy in the boots writing your posts.

[Wolf Larsen]

Like they said, you clean up good.

But the phrase "self control" that you use. I'm sorry, but I'm unfamiliar with it. What does it mean?

Boots. I wear boots a lot. Even to swanky events.

I just saw this.

I thought we were friends, man.

I thought ...


I don't...


I don't even know you anymore.

[Zeener Diode]

There there Plinky. I'm sure he didn't mean that.

Get your hand off my ass.

My fine, tight, attention-whore ass.

[Zeener Diode]

Relax dude. It's just a bro-crush.

[Uthrecht]

It's not his fault, Plink. With that fitted sports jacket and that artsy block tie (not to mention those heels!), you're more dolled up than a debutante. Folks just can't keep their hands off you.

[Mateomasfeo]

Plinky, you are purdier than a $20 whore!

Stop it, you're making me blush...

[KidVermicious]

Wait. You're Puna's brother, right?

It's just that I thought he was the oldest.

Yes. that's why, in one year from today, you won't be able to tell Lauren Graham and me apart.

Good point. With apologies, when I listed out your attributes above, I neglected to note your awesome rack.

Oh, I noticed, don't worry.

[Bodhiman]

You look great, Plink. Really great.

Dude.

Man up.

[Swivels]

Looking good, Plink.

I don't have any performance pictures from last night yet, but these are a couple from a photo shoot we did earlier in the course.





Photo credit for these goes to Frankie Panky.

[mlerose]

Super cute! I love how comfortable you look in your burlesque gear.

[Swivels]

Thanks! I think it helps that I was all drugged up on cold meds the day of the photo shoot, and then wearing enough makeup to look reasonable... But hey, whatever works, and I was definitely entirely comfortable in it, with or without medication, by the time the performance rolled around.

[jali]

Love your photo shoot Swivels! Reminds me of the pin-up girl calendar beauties.

Any videos of you dancing that we might see?

[Radical Edward]

Waiting for paint to dry, I got a little bored. It turned out very nicely, though.

MOAR GLITTER

[Salambo]

Fun new app on my phone that applies retro filters. Self portrait using the pinhole camera filter. I posed. I don't know what my hand is supposed to be doing there on my shoulder. It looks like I'm pledging allegiance, or trying to pull up a bra strap. I guess I'll never work for Sears Portrait Studio. *sob*

Matches your eyes. Sort of. Okay, it complements them.

Not with THAT attitude, young lady! SPS wants happy people to take pictures. People who can make fussy babbys smile and giggle and burble and...

Come to think of it, you'd be perfect!

[Solfy]

From my experiences, department store photo studios want bored looking 18yr olds who can churn a customer in and out as fast as possible with little consideration to the quality of the photos. Every once in a while we get lucky and land one that gives a damn.

[eleanorigby]

Solfy speaks wisdom. We've been lucky and lightning has struck, but I'll swear it had nothing to do with the photographer....

Very nice pics in the last few rounds here. Swivels-you look sassy! I think that's a great pic of you, Ed; you have pretty eyes. And Salambo, I never saw the pirate resemblance until now. I think you're reaching for the cutlass slung over your shoulder....!

[SylverOne]

I just uploaded some pictures to the pet thread, so I'll add the last decent picture I've had taken in a while. The fact it was from last halloween is pretty damning...

I was dressed in scrubs, and wearing a witch hat and a stethoscope. People kept asking if I was an evil nurse.

[Salambo]

Well, the Sears thing was tongue-in-cheek; I've never sat for a Sears session where they make you do much more than brush the bangs out of your face. Last time I sat for a "professional" session, she did my hair and made me place my hands and fingers in strange positions and made me sit in ways that felt unnatural, all the while assuring me that it would turn out great. This is what I got:



I guess it turned out okay. I still look like a dorkus, but I suppose that can't be helped. I firmly believe there isn't anything that can't be improved by a nice black hat with a jolly roger on it and an elegant eyepatch. Timeless, really. And would it have killed her to supply me with a parrot? I mean, I don't usually have one, but this is for fancy picture taking, you know?

[Portia]

Tripler and I met our tuxedo boys at a friend's Halloween party, where Tripler was dressed as Bob the Builder. He stood still for a few seconds and that was all it took to be scaled by one kitten, who earned his name then and there - Scalar. Tripler was paralyzed w/ 'What do I do??' and stood stock still. Scalar learned right then he was in charge of Daddy!

I LOVE that witch hat!!

I would say the photographer did an excellent job but really, was there any way this could not turn out good? A blind chimp could have taken this picture and the results would still be awesome.

Witch doctor?

[Hamadryad]

I was asked if I have the ability to smile, so I am attention-whoring once again. Yes; yes, I can smile.

Something like this?

[Salambo]

See! That's way better! Thank you!

Hooray!

[Solfy]

That. is. awesome, 3acres.

[Chacoguy]

::Applauds Wildly::

[eleanorigby]

I don't recognize Salambo sans parrot and hat, so good on you, 3Acres!


SylverOne--I probably could have used a witches hat when I was a floor nurse.

Very nice! Can you smile with an eye patch and a parrot?

[Harry]

This is probably the last picture of me that I'm comfortable with. I took it in our living room, just before I retired in 1983. The picture has discolored a bit from print shift, and from being in a frame for 28 years. The uniform is from Robert McNamara's attempt to put all branches of the service into the same style, with the only differences being color and insignia



I had hair, then.

[Dragonlady]

Awww Harry!
A "Milkman Uniform". From back when Crackerjacks were illegal - although by 83, they were back in use for junior enlisteds, IIRC. Came with the combination cap, right?
