What did you use to look like? Old photos.

<3 this thread so much

Hoos you are the cutest!!!

I wasn't sure whether to put this here or in the lol college thread, but either way, what I used to look like is: "kind of depraved."

those are dope glasses I wish I had a pair :(

omg that fringe!

Yeah my bangs were sorta out of control, huh?

I thought bangs were boobs until someone disabused me a few years ago.

Jenny you kinda look like a prettier Linda Hamilton upthread.

ENBB my sister had hair just the same -- glossy, thick shiny, dead straight...I think she may have even had the same hairdresser, lol!

I presume you're tackling him for his lederhosen, no?

I can only assume so. They are pretty sweet.

Oh my God, Jenny! I stared at that picture forever and then kept returning to it.

Aww, thanks!

(@ Jesse)

Opened a box a few weeks ago with my senior HS yearbook in it. I didn't really look much like this in high school, I don't think. (For one thing no idea where the jacket or tie came from for this pic, since as far as I recall we had none of those anywhere in our house.)

Were you kidnapped and held against your will at any point?

I'm feeling the striped shirt/diagonally striped tie tho..

More entertaining is this picture a friend sent me recently of the band we used to be in. I'm in the back, in the, um, anarchy shirt. But without a mullet, at least...

(we were called Desert Ice...)

Desert Ice is beyond awesome.

Jesse, you are super cute in your helmet on your little tricycle ramp.

Tipsy, was it a fake shirt/jacket/tie combo? I think I remember for my senior portrait having to put on some fake-tux looking thing over my regular clothes.

I have no memory of the photo being taken, so anything's possible. More likely is maybe something borrowed from a more respectable friend.

Think I've posted this before but hey. I am the suave dude sitting furthest left. Think we were in Trier.

What year is that? Clothes and haircuts look very like the time I spent in the U.K. ca. 1979.

that's probably about 1983 so not far off

So glad facebook was invented so that I can pillage other people's photo collections to find pictures of myself (I never keep pictures)

*no animals were harmed in the production of this photo

You were a braver little boy than I ever was. I didn't (and still don't) run from snakes or anything, but hell no I'm not picking one up.

b/w ages of about 4-10, I read & endlessly fascinated by all manner of reptiles, amphibians, fish & insects (& spiders, until I got bit by a nasty one). Thankfully I grew up in an area which, while still def the suburbs, was nestled among a diversity of ecosystems that supplied me w/ ample opportunities to indulge my passion. ftr I never killed anything (save for what I kept for my butterfly & moth collection), tho I had a revolving collection of 'temporary pets' throughout my childhood.

Oddly, even tho I can barely remember what I did last week, I still have a detailed memory of the taxonomy of all those creepy crawly things.

In 1980 (age 6), I was on a local afternoon kids tv show. This was before the family had a vcr, so when it came on tv, my dad set up his camera and took some photos (which makes it look like it's from the '50s). I'd love to get a tape of it now, but there's no way that rinky dink little Public Television station saved all (or any of) those tapes.

That's my younger brother at the very end.

wow Johnny that's pretty neat! Child star! How long til you start spiralling & rob a convenience store?

Also Siouxsie shirt photo? CUTE!

Well, I was busted in 1988 shoplifting an Aerosmith tape from K-Mart. At the time, that scared the shit out of me, but now I realize that I was never going to be in that much trouble for stealing something that was about $7.

p much what a schoolmate of d gleeson should look like rly

won't even try to deduce that veiled comment, except to say not a schoolmate, just grew up near him!

you wear the pout of privilege comfortably, very comfortably.

haha...i can't help it, i have large lips.

You remind me of Martin Amis in that pic.

found and scanned this charming image recently:
