Any pics from your youth? Looking pissed is a plus.

[Omphaloskepsis]

Not being pissed works too.

1. Cute pic!

I was a happy child and when the camera was around, I was always posing. So there aren't any pics of me being pissed. :shrug:

[TK421]

20. Cute then, cute now...you know the rest

;)

[Shell Beau]

22. Aw, thanks!

:blush:

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

2. I was a happy kid...

[Ptah]

3. With my best Eddie Haskell grin:

[jane_pippin]

4. In smart-ass mode:

I have a pissed one too, but it's not on my computer.

[Heidi]

17. Jane_pippin, you're an artist!

I lovelovelove children's drawings. (But gosh, I was a senior in high school on the date that drawing was made. :cry: )

You were a lovely little girl. :hug:

[jane_pippin]

19. aw, thanks Heidi. I love your collage too-- what a cutie pie you were!

Don't get weepy. Age is largely meaningless. :hug:

[Heidi]

21. You darling . . .

I absolutely agree that age is largely meaningless. I'm 42 and my years since 35 have been the best in my life. (Look again at my hatband in that collage. The little heart is Mr. Heidi when he was about nine years old. ;) )

[jane_pippin]

26. haha..cool! Without my glasses Mr. Heidi looks a little like David Gregory

from NBC in that pic. Ah, here's to it. ;)

[Heidi]

27. I just noticed Bill Hicks in your avatar.

He's one of the men of my dreams, alongside Leonard Cohen, Ruben Blades, Mr. Heidi and a couple of DU members ( :evilgrin: ) !

[jane_pippin]

30. Oh me too. I'm reading a book about him now, Love All The People

(which is quite good), and I'm convinced he's supposed to be my frickin' mentor. The one thing I dislike about my age is that all the people I really admire kicked off before I got to see them. But that's just how it is I guess.
On the plus side, it means if I want to get a tattoo of his name there's little chance he'll do something to make me regret it. :D

[GirlinContempt]

5. this is the only one I have on the computezor

[Heidi]

12. _That's_ a huggable kid!

And, to your credit, you don't have a spaghetti sauce stain on your white collar (and I do in my first-grade photo in this thread. :eyes: )

[GirlinContempt]

14. Aww thanks, I couldn't have a stain

I was a private school kid. Uniform violations are not permitted ;)

[Heidi]

16. Oh, I was very nearly subjected to private parochial school

as a child. It would have been "Exciting Eastwood Baptist School." Thank goodness my mother is a lapsed Catholic.

[GirlinContempt]

18. I loved loved loved private school

Loved it. But the one I went to wasn't a religious one. Well, we said the lords prayer once a week. But most of the students were Jewish, Atheist, Buddhist, well... basically anything non-christian.

I did spend a short period of time in a mennonite ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mennonite ) school. Worst experience of my childhood. To be raised and Atheist and then dropped into super-whacko religion land was HELL. Not that all mennonites are whacko, but these ones sure were.

They called my Mum at work to tell her that I was possessed by, or an incarnation of, the devil. (hehe mood icons)

Way too crazy!

[ghostsofgiants]

50. You look kind of mischievous...

Like you're about to go do something evil.

[GirlinContempt]

57. Hey! I was

a totally good kid :P

[TK421]

6. I wasn't happy when this happened, though

[Heidi]

7. A collage of me in my youth, and in my not-so-youth.

I don't look pissed, even when I _am_. :eyes: (You were a beautiful child, Omphaloskepsis, and I'd kill for a sock monkey! :hug: )

[no name no slogan]

9. That's a cool collage

That's excellent! :thumbsup:

[Heidi]

10. Thanks, my friend!

The scan is maybe too small for you to discern that the printed material is from: a pack of Winston 100s ("Full, Rich American blend) and the tags on a pair of Levi's shrink-to-fit 501s (my working "uniform" ("This is a pair" and "Bar-stitched at Points of Stress"), as well as an old map of the earth.

:hug:

[Lilyhoney]

23. I love the collage. nt

[no name no slogan]

8. Here's a few

One of the few times I smiled as a kid was for photos.

9th grade (1983-84):


high school senior (1986-87):


college freshman (1987-88):

[Heidi]

11. You're one of those brainy cute guys, huh?

And about the same age (apparently) as Mr. Heidi. You younger men! :evilgrin:

[no name no slogan]

13. we ARE evil (but shy)

I was a total loser in high school. Didn't even have a real girlfriend until college. Must've been that summer after my senior year I spent playing in the glam band that did it. For some reason wimmen in my town really dug brainy guys who wore make-up. go figure.

[Heidi]

15. NO!

Mr. Heidi was a European glam guy for a spell at about the same time. I fell for him, though, when he was in his brooding writer phase. ;) (Yeah, he's extremely introverted, but well worth getting to know. How could I _not_ love a guy who can turn the phrase, "Well done, Ensign Crusher!" into a term of endearment? :eyes: )

[Sugar Smack]

24. Ah, GOD!

that last pic is making me insane. I absiluteliu loveds ity!


:loveya:

[no name no slogan]

31. *blush*

Y'know, summer's over, and I am growing my hair out for the severe Minnesota winter...

[Sugar Smack]

[no name no slogan]

33. LOL!

[ZombieNixon]

25. I ALWAYS look pissed!

Well, OK, sometimes I look stoopid...

[Skittles]

60. LOL

:thumbsup:

[Darth_Kitten]

28. I'd show you, but I don't know how to show them on DU

:(

[TK421]

29. You could open a Photobucket account...its free

and fairly easy to use

[u4ic]

34. Not pissed

just eating:


And a pic from when I was about 14, with a wonderful horse called Strawberry:



I had actual jodhpurs, not breeches, hence the 'thunder thighs' look... :scared:

[SarahB]

35. Adolescent angst.

I thought I was so dark, but I could never pull off the look. :crazy:

[Pale Blue Dot]

56. Why do I think that

just after this picture was taken, in which you look so intense and sexy, you tripped over something and started laughing like a hillbilly on speed?

:yoiks:

:loveya:

Stalk this, sweetheart: I love you so much I feel like I'm going to burst. See you in 19 1/2 hours!

[SarahB]

58. Because you know me too well.

And you probably would be right. :P

How'd I miss this last night?

See you in 12 hours now! Don't forget the rubber chicken!

I love you!!! :loveya:

[Left Is Write]

36. Spring 1980.

Just shy of my 14th birthday.

[fleabert]

37. me and my cousin...south padre island...

I think I am about 17 or 18

[gmoney]

38. Gosh, I hope you're 18 here...

:) Adorable

[Kire]

39. here's two

[jane_pippin]

44. Oh! Ha ha ha ha ha! Those are SO cute! n/t

[gmoney]

40. Here's a new (old) one...

Probably about 22 or so, during the big wedding boom of the mid-80s, with Mom. I believe this wedding was for the guy that used to beat the shit out of me as a child and helped make me the emotional wreck I am today... does that count as pissed?

[Reverend_Smitty]

41. here's a series of photos of me

it's kinda like a flip book...lol

[GOPisEvil]

42. Sorry, not pissed.

[ornotna]

43. Not exactly pissed

But it's me.







A long time ago.

[ghostsofgiants]

45. About to bust a few caps in some asses...

And wearing a George Michael jacket, according to LeftPeopleFinishFirst, haha.

[Omphaloskepsis]

48. You should hang out with my maintenance guy.

He needs to be shot.

[ghostsofgiants]

49. Hahaha!

Alas, my gangsta days are behind me.

[Omphaloskepsis]

52. Shit..

My landscaping guy needs to be whacked too.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

61. so he busts it out

cause he's gotta have faith, yeaaaah he's gotta have faaaaithah faiithah faith

[ghostsofgiants]

62. Goddamn right

[RetroLounge]

46. Actually, I look kinda pleased with myself

RL

[gmoney]

47. ...or ready to gleefully strangle a small dog.

The hand position is too much! Very cute...

[Rabrrrrrr]

51. "Ja, und so Der Fuhrer tells me to strangle ze dog, like zo, ja,

und I had been training for monthz zen, ja, real Hitler Jugend zeitgeist ztreaming through me, ja, so und den I take ze dog..."

[Gregorian]

53. Before the cold hard truth.

[Dervill Crow]

54. Not pissed, but probably up to no good.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

55. A grade school yearbook portrait

I honestly don't know exactly which grade-- I'm guessing third-- the year I first fell in love (with my teacher, Miss Peggy Joy. I was absolutely devastated when she took off in the middle of the year to get married. I never recovered.).



And yes, I'm STILL as good looking! :rofl:

[Skittles]

59. I was usually pissed
