Ten pounds of water weight with PMS
Send me your worst photos.  Nothing gross, just unflattering.  Let's start a revolution of the real, the way that people look when they are not posing.  Don't delete them, be part of the revolution.

The first bad photo


My daughter took this several years ago.  I haven't shown it to anyone.  Why?  Because I look like a troll.  My hair is fuzzy and the angle is not flattering.  Most pictures are not flattering.  This is a blog about "bad pictures," the ones we delete from our phones before they can escape into the possible and infinite life of the internet.  I started this because my mom said that a picture of the two of us was bad.  I loved the picture, but I took it down, because someone she loves and trusts told her is was a bad picture of her.  I got to thinking - that we only put pictures of ourselves online that represent our best selves, our pretty selves.  Screw it.  We are mostly ugly and human and I'm tired of touch ups.  Please find the ugliest pictures of yourself, dare to be human.  I like double chins the best.
