Gossamer no longer looks like an Apple Store employee.

C'mon Spliffy - you're not trying nearly hard enough with that 'tache. I reckon you should be going for the full "bloke from Husker Du" jobbie.

Socially Awkward Solo · Jun 8, 2006, 04:24 PM

I'd post a pic of my and my boyfriend but there are way too many ding dongs here that would love to get ahold of it for GOD knows what.

I was also going for the Louisiana connection.

Spliffdaddy · Jun 8, 2006, 04:27 PM

OK, lemme get this straight.

*This* is the guy calling me a "tea bag"?

What is that growing on yer face?

The defense rests, your honor.

I defnetly look like an ASE.

Spliffdaddy · Jun 8, 2006, 04:35 PM

So I called Katie and asked if I looked like a tea bag. She asked if I meant the little one-cup Lipton bags or the big 2-quart variety. I told her I wasn't sure, and I'd get back to her.

I think that went horribly wrong.

Socially Awkward Solo · Jun 8, 2006, 04:37 PM

I don't get this teabag stuff. What does it mean?

Meet Katie (K-dogg) - my best friend.

Looks like you needed to replace a couple lightbulbs.

By Tuesday, you'll be in full-bloom midlife crisis.

That's a healthy brown goatee! When you have stuff on your chin, that's cool... stuff only on your lip isn't. You need to grow some **** on your chin. Since you're gray now, you could always just grab a marker or something so that you don't look stupid or teabaggy...

Last time I posted a personal picture on here it was of my new born daughter and someone horribly photoshopped it in an effort to mock me. Someone has even threatened to repost it in the last few weeks.

I have learned my lesson.

Too many people around here have no respect for each other.

I'll post a pic of myself, but family is off limits.

At the proper reception, the next day. We opted for a three day wedding.

Those are lovely shots! You're in Canada now? Hope you're both having a great time.

Katie always smiles. In the 7 years I've known her she has never been angry, rude, or in any way unhappy. She works for the state, teaching and caring for the *worst* of the worst kids (12-16 years old), most of them taken from abusive households. She has more patience than a saint. I've never met anybody quite like her.

I couldn't help noticing a distinct lack of actual couples in this thread. This needs to be rectified:

Me and my fiancé of three weeks:

When we got engaged we also got matching tattoos:

adster · Jun 8, 2006, 07:20 PM

^^^ So sweet.

adster · Jun 8, 2006, 07:22 PM

^^^^ erik - I know your face from somewhere, you ever been to any Scandinavian countries? Maybe it's in Oz? I was up at the Gold Coast last year, but mostly in Perth, and S. Australia - but was getting around a lot in Sweden, Iceland, and Norway. Think I saw ytou at some music thing, memory sucks lol

- - e r i k - - · Jun 8, 2006, 07:29 PM

I am from Norway, yes. But then again I have been residing at the Gold Coast for the better part of the last two years. Could it have been Big Day Out on the Gold Coast or Bluesfest in Byron Bay? Or maybe even Lost Weekend in Norway?

adster · Jun 8, 2006, 07:38 PM

^^^ Aaaah, Lost Weekend in Norway! I've been there! on the Island if Askøy. See, I have a thing for faces, terrible with names, but I remember even fleeting glances of people - maybe that's it!

How are you enjoying Australia? I loved it there. Adelaide was more of a grannie place, but coming from Scotland, it was heaven lol. I guess you're pretty settled into the place, now, especially after two years.

- - e r i k - - · Jun 8, 2006, 08:38 PM

Yes. I work for Lost Weekend. (The guy doing the "documentary" on it every year). What were you there for?

I'm loving Australia. Seing as my fiancé is an Aussie, I'm going to be stuck here for a while. But I'm just loving the climate. This is supposed to be winter? It's 22°!

Yes, after 17 years in London it was time to move on. Toronto is a great city that we both love living in. We'll be here for the foreseeable future.

Obviously you don't get it. I was just kidding.
Anyway, here we are..

ambush · Jun 8, 2006, 11:14 PM

What a wonderful thread idea... unfortunately I don't have my camera :'(

E's Lil Theorem · Jun 8, 2006, 11:24 PM

More couples to add to the thread:

MrsLarry · Jun 8, 2006, 11:40 PM

Here's me and my guy, going on 5 years now...

Pathetic. Why are you trashing in this guys thread? He honestly hoped members would post pictures of themselves and their SO and you simply googled a few pictures of people you know zero about.

How about a little bit more promoting of your site listed in your sig next time like you usually do.

Spliffdaddy · Jun 8, 2006, 11:50 PM

whoa. Mrs Larry is hot.

Ghoser777 · Jun 9, 2006, 12:05 AM

Best way to get scared/run off the forums is
a) Be hot
b) Post pic of yourself

It's happened before - Mrs Larry, I can only hope for the best.

Spliffdaddy · Jun 9, 2006, 12:07 AM

I'm hot and I ain't scared of y'all.

You take this internet forum stuff too seriously. If the OP has an issue with my post, I'm sure he'll speak up. My guess is that he doesn't care.

Haha, okay: everyone go to my site! It doesn't have women kissing, but it does have women...and three guys.

whoa . . . MrsLarry is young. Her posts are always calm, measured, and thoughtful (except for the "needs more red" thread). I had her pegged as some 40-something Mommy-Designer type not as some young gorgeous woman.

Here is me from September 2003, celebrating my 33rd birthday with some co-workers. I've got a little less hair now but still the same boyish look. And I am single, so no picutre of me with a SO.

TheoCryst · Jun 9, 2006, 12:40 AM

I'm the one who's too lazy to hold the camera:

zmcgill · Jun 9, 2006, 12:41 AM

It's interesting how the top posters/mods won't put their pics up. Is that because people who are top posters/mods aren't photogenic, or they know what will happen if they do?

ambush · Jun 9, 2006, 12:47 AM

I would if I had a camera

I'll let you guess why the photos that people have posted in this thread won't be photochoped and why yours was photochoped.

Spliffdaddy · Jun 9, 2006, 01:08 AM

Well, nobody with a moustache is likely to post their picture now.

ambush · Jun 9, 2006, 01:14 AM

I don't get how a conservative freak is a stoner.
