Maybe I’m just showing my age, not getting some fundamental part of youth culture, but can someone humor the old codger that writes this blog and please explain to me why half the people who send me photos are making some variation on this facial expression?

It’s a terrible photo of her, and reminds me of one of my bitch ex girlfriends from high school. She held that face fairly regularly. If and when I submit photos of myself onto the web, I generally want them to be natural and thus nice looking (hah, yes, go me and my self confidence), and it’s nice when other people on here look natural, too, not some… mutated duck… thing.
Unless it really IS cool, and I missed the memo. A lot of these comments are making me think that might be the case…

I don’t understand why everybody automatically hates her and makes fun of her style. OH MY GOD! She wanted to wear a bonnet, has a different hair cut, and SHE MADE A WEIRD FACE IN A PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!
WE MUST KILL HER… and if that is to extreme, at least talk shit on her even though everyone on here is part of a “scene” themselves.

Please, may I have another 80 comments ridiculing someone for how they choose to look? If we could follow it up witha post about someone losing their job at Walmart over an eyebrow piercing with another 80 odd comments about how unfair it is to be judged for how you look, that’d be especially rich.

BTW, I was genuinely interested in the reason that people make this face so consistently, and I do appreciate the answers that actually address that.

FYI it’s a mobcap not a bonnet. I just wonder why people make this face and label it “Me being dorky” when we all know it’s really “Me being sceney”.

I’m stickin to the scene theory. Every scene kid I know (many if not most of which have monroe piercings) has at least one of these pictures on their myspace.

I love funny faces…they make me smile.
I think the younger kids might be making a statement that they don’t necessarily need to be attractive and taking themselves seriously all the time?? Just a theory.

My boyfriend makes that face in like every picture & I didn’t realize what an idiot he is until right now. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Shannon.
