I was a total dork in the 80sBavarian Illuminati pin. Humpback Whale (ref: Star Trek IV) Watchmen Smiley pin (rubberized blood had peeled off.) Batman painter's cap! Batman button! Batman pin! Romulan Warbird Insignia pin. Klingon Empire Insignia pin. Sad eyes. I really didn't like having my picture taken. Afraid to smile, because it would show off my fucked up teeth. Because the Swatches on both my wrists and one ankle weren't enough, here's one attached to my fucking jacket. If you don't remember Zinka, you're lucky. If you do, you may recall these handy little things that ensured your Zinka was never farther away than the band of your watch. Boingo concert T-shirt. At least *one* thing here isn't completely humiliating. The Hard Rock Cafe! It's were all the cool people go . . . right? I mean, I'm cool because I have this on my denim jacket, right? One of these things is not like the other: Felix the Cat.
Just in case there was any doubt lingering about what a fucking geektard I was when I was a teenager, I present this photo, recovered from the garage this weekend.
This photo has notes. Move your mouse over the photo to see them.
I have not scanned the back side of this, which declares, "Hey Mon! Be excellent to each other!" and features a badly-drawn attempt to recreate the Batman insignia. I'm not sure what's worse: that I thought this was cool, or that someone who should have known better let me print this on a postcard to be sent out to just about anyone who sent a letter asking for an autographed picture. Goddamn was I awkward. Commentsicedsoul photography .:teymur madjderey
