From Mike in San Diego: My wife’s brother likes to ham it up for the camera. Now the problem is trying to take real pics - if it takes longer than three seconds he calls me an ass and walks away.
It’s been an exciting week for Long Awkward Pose. Since the site launched we have had so much good news…
We’ve served a million files in our first week. Keep the kind words and the videos coming. We appreciate the support. Even when we don’t really understand it. (Tenir-la-pause!)
Earl from California : “These are two of my students. It’s great because my director says on the PA that I’m filming, not taking pictures. Both students then storm off the camera. I love the fact that the girl puts her trophy she just won up to pose for the picture.”
Thanks Earl, I love how much you enjoy yourself at the end of the clip :)
This jumps in half-way through the pose, Stoley was already sick of it but couldn’t resist the football. I’d like to note that this takes place right after I got John (hitman above). He’s the one who says “boring” in this, but still lets Stoley get pranked.
From Jean in IN: “My husband Jeff and our son Brendan. Brendan was playing with the Slip-N-Slide and I asked Jeff to pose for a picture. He just might hold the record for the number of times someone says ‘cheese’.”
We got a shoutout today from the New York media and gossip blog Gawker.
Introducing our new favorite website: Long Awkward Pose. People look stupid when they pose for pictures, but they look even more stupid when they don’t know they’re being videotaped during their earnest posing. Hilarity ensues. [Long Awkward Pose]
