ha Trayce, I am thinking about having a mohawk again next week for fancy dress purposes
sunny - this must have been school holidays for that hair, but don't worry, I did get casually punched on the semi-reg and "FAGGOT!!"ed most days of middle school

I didn't know that Jaq was a lady. Your hair was great! You really stand out against the bleakness of that farm.

thanks sunny! I never did sort out the back-combing/teasing/hairspray business, just attacked it with a curling iron at random. Oh bleak rural Indiana in mid-winter melt.

Love this thread! Aimless, that 72 pic looks like an album cover...so great.
Me and my little sis (me on left), maybe 1982-ish. Mum was a freak about having us wear matching clothes. (There's one somewhere with Mum in it too wearing a red & white tracksuit, lol)

I have a wealth of photos like that of my younger brother and me. Usually not identical outfits, but the same designs in complementary colors.

Are Facebook photos remotely linkable? I guess I shall see.
Spring 1990. There are so many embarrassing things about this photo.

I had that shirt well into the '90s. Long after I should've donated it away, anyway.
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 16 October 2010 02:07 (thirteen years ago) link
This is probably in the fall of the same year (11th grade). I borrowed that Cure shirt from my friend Jason because I wanted to be immortalized in the yearbook being a Cure fan.

My parents had their 50th Anniversary this past summer & I combed through thousands of old prints and slides to make a digital slideshow for the occasion. Here are a few of yours truly, (almost) randomly chosen from all the scans I made.

that last one was taken at the Pompeii ruins during a family vacation to Italy etc. Please consider that I did not deface this priceless statue with a rock-for-a-head - I found it like that, though I did furnish the the mirrored Lennon shades, Walkman & black beret w/ Circle Jerks, D.R.I., Watchmen badges (can't remember what the fourth is - The Cure maybe?).

JF, had you been my upperclassman, I probably would have annoyed the shit out of you asking about bands you were into and what not, esp. if you were also into skateboarding (as your haircut would suggest). Then I would really have been riding your coattails!

And I definitely would have had a crush on you, so you've got that going for you, too.
