Vox Hunt: Smile for the Camera

0

Show us your camera smile.

OK, you asked for it. There’s two smiles I can give you.

The MugshotSmile #1: The Mugshot

This is my normal smile. I simply can’t smile on camera without actually being happy about something and not make it look…stupid. So I normally go with no smile. See my profile picture for another example.

Mental InstitutionSmile #2: Mental Institution version

This is a smile you normally don’t see. That’s my fake smile. I think it looks more like I belong in some sort of an institution in a straight jacket, rather than an actual smile.

I’m not the most photogenic person in the universe.

QotD: I Was Born Too Late

What time period would you have lived in, if you could have lived at any time?

If I could have lived at any time period, I’d probably go back to the Renaissance (1400-1600AD or thereabouts), with the provision that I wouldn’t be a peasant. If I were a noble of some sort, that’d be fun, but…not real interested in being ordered around all the time.

The reason I’d pick that specific time period is that I’ve always been kinda intereted in it, starting back in sixth grade when we studied mideval times (I made a sugar cube castle!). The interest just kinda grew from there. There was all sorts of cultural stuff going on as well, which would be cool to experience first hand. Again we come back to the “not wanting to be a peasant” thing.

I probably wouldn’t last two days though. I’m not sure I could give up the internet ;)
