I know I'm going to regret this later. I've had a bit to drink & I've been going through some old photos with the family. Decided to upload this for a laugh.
I think it was taken around 1977, I would have been 5 years old. It could have been for the Queen's Jubilee, I can't remember, I'm emotionally scarred, LOL!
That's me next to the girl.  My god, how could my parents make me go to school dressed like that, the social workers should have been called in! If it had been a contest for the worst haircut, shirt & pants I would have won hands down.
Anyway, who's up for it. Show us your embarrassing photos from years gone by, you know you want to! It'll be a laugh.

I have a good one if I can get my scanner to work.

Looks OK to me, don't see what you're all upset about.  My parents used to dress me like that all the time for formal occasions.  Of couse that was 50 years ago, so maybe times have changed.

Well, it's me at about 2 years old i think (it was around 1979...). It was a disguised party in the town (very little town...). But i didn't become a cooker for now! LOL

My Store

just a curiosty:

the end boy, over his left shoulder is a bloke that looks a bit like you, that wouldn't be your dad would it?

in other news, geez i remember piccies of me about that age, i also had a bow-tie!!! what the fugg is that all about!!, i have a five year old boy now, but i don't get the urge to stick a bow-tie on him!!! so why did people used to do dat!!?

(observes man next to girls head, to her right , he has an afro! but it looks like his beard has blown over that old lady next to him's head.LOL)

that's not an embarresing photo BTW, if only i could find the one with me dressed as a spaceman at someones' party, where my whole ass had popped out the back!!! spacemen are obviously not supposed to pick stuff up off the floor.

When i see my face on this photo, i guess i'd prefer to be dressed as a spacemen than a cooker!!
:woot:

Hahaha... nice.

I don't have any of me as a little kid (my mum has them all) but this is me aged about 15. Wow, the eighties were a hot fashion decade :lol:

Cage - Is it a super-hero or... a bug?? If you were trying to hide yourself in the dustbin, was there someone else in the second one?

JJ - The way you look like your mother is astonishing! I was first thinking it were you with a different hair cut! LOL But i think the sign you were doing with your right hand must has been chocking at this time. And if i may give you an advice: you probably tweaked a little too much the rotate dial when posing the sunglasses... :lol:

*Both a super-hero (of sorts) and a bug (nominally, at least), Ambush Bug was the creation of Keith Giffen and the bane of Superman's existence for a couple of years in the mid-eighties, before DC had its nervous breakdown in the guise of the Crisis on Infinite Earths.  There was no one in the other bin.  I got stuck in the first one.  Smelled bad.  Seemed like a good idea at the time.  Most things seemed like a good idea at the time, at the time.  Anti-depressants can be bad medicine.

I can never have a political career now, of course.  They'd trot out these photos of me wearing a bug suit and popping in and out of trash cans.  Oh well.  It's the world's loss.  :-P

JJ, you look so much like your mum! 

Stormchaser, hell no, the boys stayed the &*!# away from me, I was too scary for them! Anyway I identified as gay back then so they were all out of luck, haha.

Yeah I forgot how TVs used to look. I have to show this picture to my little boy next week, he'll be like "What is THAT?!"

OK, my turn. Anyone for cricket? Yeh, only B&W pics in my day. Wish I still had that outfit. So cute!

These pics are great, glad to know I'm not the only one with embarrassing ones!!

jj - We made need a nudity tag for that 2nd photo!! BTW, you so much look like your mum.

drifterlee - I was still called sweet, cute etc into my teens & early twenties! Nobody calls it me anymore now so I guess I've lost that touch, LOL!

ashley9803 many of my family's early pics were done in B&W as my father had this one camera he refused to update until it finally died one year. You actually had to look down through the lens..LOL! The photo I posted was from school picture day.

jj there is no denying that you are not your mother's daughter!

Don't feel bad Stormchaser I will not even begin to remember the last time I was called cute..LOL!!

Yeah, ambush bug. Somewhere in the basement, I have the entire Ambush Bug miniseries. Great stuff.

@"JJ - The way you look like your mother is astonishing!" and others

believe it or not - there are a total of 5 females in my family who all look just like this.  All named for eachother - perhaps there is something in a name?  Often people see one of us and ask if either we Are, or we know the other ones.  Our voices are pretty identical as well.  Which is nice when I don't want to talk on the phone - I just say I'm my sister and that I am not home ; )

Thank you, I take it as a compliment = D

I was trained as a costumer. That means I should really, -really- have known what a bad idea this was. I don't even have the excuse of "Well, I was five, and... " since this was about 5 years ago. And just because it wasn't obnoxious-attention-whore-looking enough, unbeknownst to me before I left for the halloween party, that cluster of fruit glowed like a neon sign under black light. *facepalm* (It did have a shawl not in this, the only picture I'd let anyone take, and I kept hiding under it all night.)

Most of my pics are are storage still down in Dallas, but I have this one in my laptop. Halloween of 1988. it's not really embarrassing, I thought I was kinda cool there. It's a modified Elvira costume. There are a lot of pins in the sleeves because there was like a mile of cloth going on there.

I love halloween. Usually I do zombies, ghouls, etc. The last is a favorite though; another creature of the night.. or at least, a lady of the evening; Baliwood style. :)

My best embarrasing pic is from childhood in an album somewhere. I'll have to look.

My most embarassing pic would be a TOS violation to post (gotta love big sisters!), but once I get a chance to swing by my mom's house, I'll post 'em :D  Between me working, her working, and my little bro playing football, no one's schedules coincide until 11pm, LOL, and that's too late!

Ok, here is mine!  I finally got my printer to scan. 

This was taken back in the late 1980's I think. I'm on the left. The girl on the right is my friend and then roommate Gerry.  We have a yearly fair here and at that time there was a place you could go and get dressed up in vintage clothing and have your picture taken.  The photographer told me "look mean",  LMAO  I think I managed!
