Brian Eno's Mother (Latham Green), Thursday, 3 January 2013 21:43 (eleven years ago) link

it's kinda sad. I've never used instagram, but I guess it puts plymouth reliants in things?

Are you wearing a Global Hypercolor shirt?

earth of (snoball), Friday, 4 January 2013 14:53 (eleven years ago) link

I wasn't entirely sure. It could have just been a trick of the light.

how's life, Friday, 4 January 2013 14:53 (eleven years ago) link

xp: that is, in fact, a free t-shirt I got after taking a tour at Unysis

oh god i just realized that those are biker shorts. this might be my greatest high school fad fail ever.

mullet - check
mesh hastings high school football practice jersey - check
blue and black bike shorts - check
zebra print vans - check
impossible to tell but this might have been a time where i was wearing a pewter dragon claw holding a prism - jury still out, but odds are high

facile cliff (jjjusten), Friday, 4 January 2013 16:22 (eleven years ago) link

also i think i see a friendship bracelet there on the foreground wrist

facile cliff (jjjusten), Friday, 4 January 2013 16:24 (eleven years ago) link

omg friendship bracelets, I really should have been selling those things (every time I see them in a mall store or a street vendor I think about how obsessed I was with making them)

Never gonna happen #1:

Summer 1988. Hi J, yeah - I'll meet you at the pub. I'll have been playing tennis all morning so I won't change or anything, but that won't be embarrassing or anything, will it?

Never gonna happen #2:

Late summer 1988. Oceanographic lab, 3rd year of degree, terrible jumper. Boy, I really hope S doesn't have a boyfriend or something by the time I see her again at Xmas. Oh.

much too non-embarrassing, gtfo

mookieproof, Saturday, 5 January 2013 01:25 (eleven years ago) link

There was never a camera around when I was drunk. Because why? Because this all happened back when you had to take film to a developer and it was expensive so you didn't waste film on being wasted. But I'll try to dig up something for ya mook.

Aimless, Saturday, 5 January 2013 01:30 (eleven years ago) link

Aimless = super-suave.

Though I was wasting film on being wasted all the way into the mid-2000s.

For mookieproof, I present the following semi-embarrassing photo of me in 1970, aged 15 y.o. Here I am comically threatening my brother who is taking the pic. We carefully staged all of our pics on this trip.

Not to mention that I stand higher in VG's estimation than does brocolli! Maybe higher than cauliflower, too!

Aimless, Saturday, 5 January 2013 21:15 (eleven years ago) link

I looooove how nature photos erase time. That photo could've been taken earlier today!
