Getting Other People's Pictures: Classic or Dud?

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

So after my hellish nightmare at the DMV, I go to open my package of pictures to see what they're like. Well, the first set is like pictures of me and the gang, regular pictures. The second set? An old Jewish couple celebrating Hannukah. What the hell? How did they mix up not the sets, but the doubles? What's going on at this photo mart? And more importantly, what do the old Jewish couple think of the picture of my boyfriend lying on the floor with his face covered in whipped cream?

And why the hell haven't you post these pictures yet? And who's going wake those old fogies up to post theirs, too?

― Brian MacDonald, Friday, 11 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I was about to say. SHARE! SHARE! And hi Ally. :-)

By the way, raise your hand if you think Ally should be in Daphne and Celeste instead of Daphne.

Why is everyone getting packages but me? I check my stoop every day, and I receive no packages. Someone, please send me a package. Ideally, it'd be a package I can ride.

Ally looks a little Jewish; I can see how they mixed everything up.

I did and thank you -- you have no idea what an ideal arrival that was, even though it almost resulted in my death. (Driving in heavy traffic while hearing "Ooh! Stick You" and "I Love Your Sushi" for the first time = incompatible. "Your greasy greasy grandnanny" = nearly rear-ending Lexus. The sudden concern about sumo wrestlers "riding the path to self-destruction" = nearly missing exit and connecting with pole. "Eeew, we're in Kansas!" = nearly running red light. Etc.)

Do you *DESERVE* packages, David? ;-) Or maybe you just need to ask, as Jess so plaintively did of Disco Inferno etc.

As far as I am concerned, Ally could replace both Daphne and Celeste and outcool them both by herself.

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 11 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I am asking for packages!

(Actually, Nedward, I was going to harass you for some of that D.I. love. I will now perform such harrassment in a public forum, as to seem ingratiating and obsequious, Mr. Ned.)

― David Raposa, Friday, 11 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Yes, yes, go on. Now tell me I'm pretty.

Send yer contact info via private mail, etc. I randomly had another person ask me about that today thanks to my 136 list ramble.

― Ned Raggett, Friday, 11 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I look Jewish? I should be in Daphne and Celeste? What the hell?

I will post pictures, I should be playing with my scanner. O-Town and Ramon are watching the Real World, I can't stand that bullshit.

― Ally, Friday, 11 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Here you go.

Altman's down with Other People's Pictures in his flick Short Cuts. I am sure those old Jewish folk have told all their friends and relatives by now. Perhaps someday you will cross paths and exchange slightly bemused looks at each other. That old lady in the third pic looks just like my 90 yo Grandma Sarah.

Ally, that's pretty funny.

I got some pics mixed up before. My wife and I took some photos of our tacky trip to Niagara Falls and whwen we got them back the extras were of some strange gay men party - Sophie thought they were all gay cause of what they were wearing, pastels, everyone, pastels and not a lady to be found.

Emily, my one friend used to work in a used bookshop and would find tonnes of pictures that she used to give to me that I put up on my fridge. The strangest one was when all of these trashy harlquinn romances came into her store and a packet of pictures of a dying lady surrounded by the romance novels. But mostly school photos and stuff like that.

But Tony got his pictures mixed up with the best (as usual with Tony the funniest stuff happens to him). His pictures got mixed up with a heavy metal band practising in their basement. The singer, had enormous black hair.

He used the picture as a postcard to his mom. 'I'm managing this band at the moment, the singer is sweet on me, might be bringing her home for the holidays...'

The strangest was with Nadine. Her mother had died and they took some pictures of the funeral. Somehow the photoshop managed to super impose an earlier picture of her mother onto the coffin. It was very creepy and ghostly. First I thought that they did it on purpose but then how would they know? And yes, her mothers eyes were very red in the picture.

We got two sets of photos when we used one of those photobooths over chrsitmas. One was danielle , david and i and one was askanky blonde chick in a coat that looked like a skinned muppet and her boyfreind or tounge receptacle in this red shiny thing. THE SCARY THING IS THAT THEY HAD MATCHING PYTHON COWBOY HATS.

Well, whoever they are, T., don't ever admit to them you don't dance. (That is, if you don't dance)

― Brian MacDonald, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh, everyone's gotten that one.

― Ally, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

They're no friends of mine, I can tell you.

― Dan Perry, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I thought it was a still from the video of the safety dance by Men without hats??????

― chris, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oh, you're right. My bad.

― Dan Perry, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Everyone knows it was a picture from my last work Christmas party, hello, pff. Morons.

― Ally, Monday, 14 January 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)
