kelel01 1 #1 April 28, 2005 You know, I have maybe 2 pics of myself and 2 minutes of video. (There are many more of both out there, but I don't have any of them.) I'm extremely camera shy, and when I actually do pose for pics, I never even look at them. Anyone else have this problem? Someday I'm gonna be 80, and there'll be no proof that I was ever in my 20's . . . other than basic science, of course. And I'll have no memories, because I'll be all old. I already don't remember anything. Sheenster303 is always having to remind me of the occurrences in my life. This sucks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ScubaSteve 0 #8 April 28, 2005 pics dont bother me. Years ago me and a friend used to like cameoing other peoples pics. You spot people lining up to take a group photo and casually walk behind and pop up into the pic, then keep walking. Its fun. It was usually in a bar or some place like that. Years later they will look at the pic and wonder who taht guy is in back row. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 35 #9 April 28, 2005 I'm with you on this too, Kel! I hate having my picture taken and I hate even more when someone posts my picture! I love taking pictures of everyone else though.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnealtx 0 #10 April 28, 2005 We can solve this... the first thing is to set you up like "The Truman Show" and put cameras all over your house...fed to satellite, of course! Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
livendive 8 #11 April 28, 2005 I usually like seeing myself in skydiving videos (unless I'm in the process of screwing up), but not so much in stills. With extremely rare exceptions, stills catch me looking even worse than normal. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

Buried 0 #12 April 28, 2005 i didn't exist between the ages of 14 and 18/19 i allow pics now, but no flash! Where is my fizzy-lifting drink? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #13 April 28, 2005 Exactly! But I also only like watching myself in skydiving videos on certain angles. From the side: bad! But stills? They can go to hell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #14 April 28, 2005 That's my other thing. I don't own a camera, and when I buy a disposable, I never use it anyway. Someday everyone I know will just be a faint memory, while I sit in my wheelchair eating baby applesauce, watching the Price is Right (still starring Bob Barker).

Thanatos340 1 #15 April 28, 2005 I hate having my picture taken. I am definitely in the same boat as you. I am NOT photogenic at all (either that or I am just not quite as devastatingly handsome as I think I am cause pictures of me always look like shit ) so I avoid cameras whenever possible. In my 36 years on this rock, I have seen less than 5 pictures of me that I actually liked. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #18 April 28, 2005 Remster - I have no idea what an anganir is. I'll look it up. Thanatos - you know, I feel the same way. When I posted that self-esteem thread, it was because I had seen a pic of myself (or 5 ), and they looked nothing like what I see in the mirror. Maybe everyone should just look at me in a mirror. None of this real life shit. I'll just hang myself on a wall and give advice to princesses and shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelel01 1 #24 April 28, 2005 I'm more over it than I used to be. But now I just like people to take pics of my breasteses. As far as face/full body shots go, though, you will NEVER get me to pose for a solo pic. Group shots only . . . or just my boobs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
