I don't know how you do it, dude.

Every time I take a picture of myself a small part of me dies inside.
I'm okay with other people taking pictures of me, but nobody takes pictures of me.

So win-win all up in here, yo.

I don't like taking pictures of myself or being picto-graphed by others. >:c

I know pictograph isn't the same as photograph. dealwithit.jpeg

You and your references to stuff I don't know or understand... who do you think you are, my uncles?

I'm okay with pictures of me after August 2009, and if other people take them candidly.

I have a mental block about posing for pictures. Ties in with my thing about insincerity. I think pikshers are meant to record history and posing for them is falsifying, creating a scene and image of happiness (or whatever) that didn't naturally occur.

The only time I can stomach photomographicking myself is when I'm visiting a place of significance (ex: my washingmachine DC trip) where I compose for a normal photo of a monument or whathaveyou, and then poke my head in there to obscure most of it but leave enough to keep it recognizable. It's kinda my thing.

Why August 2009?

I can understand that. Candid pictures are more interesting. But a posed-for photo can still reflect the actual mood in a situation. If you say to someone, "I'm gonna take your picture," then they smile or make a weird face or whatever, you're still catching a natural reaction. They way the person poses can be affected by the mood of that moment. Maybe this isn't what you meant by posing. The more premeditated, the more artificial it is… That, I agree with.

That's when I began to look normal.

Before then I looked very squishy and brown. I refer to it as my Fat Mexican stage (named after a memory I have in mah childhood barbershop when 6 actual fat mexican boys/cousins came in and started wrestling each other on the hairy floor much to my amusement. Then they confused me for also being a fat mexican bowah and started speaking Spanish to me and asking me if I had Lukas.).

Now, I'm not one of those who burn photos to try and destroy tangible evidence of something ever existing, again it's too insincere... but I am a proponent of hiding said photos in a shoebox inside of a large shoebox inside of a black garbage bag inside of a burlap sack inside of a preserved elephant's colon inside of a wooden crate inside of a second wooden crate inside of a living elephant inside of a cube of lead sunken to the bottom of the La Brea Tar Pits.
