Oh, poor Swampbear. I don’t think, by law, anybody was allowed to look good in the 70’s. You sorta look like a werewolf in mid-transition. Thanks for making me feel like less of a gork! ---

I have to confess, this is (IMHO) the best picture ever taken of me. I’m very bitter that I am not, in fact, this good looking, as most pictures since have reminded me. Dammit. I even pluck my eyebrows now and everything. [A bit grainy, but you get the idea.](http://members.aol.com/lrconaway/RuffianHSPic.jpg) ---

Circa 1992, that is. 🙂 ---

Go to Max’s page, shave off the moustache and beard, and Ta-Da! - that’s what I looked like in High School. I still wear the jacket I wore in that photo - not bad for eighteen years later. ---

Well, you asked for it. Since I’m still _in_ high school, I guess I’ll just give ya the most recent picture I have - this was taken early to mid May, this year. Wow… glad I previewed… missed a / on the last :o If the link doesn’t work, C & P. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Max Carnage \* > **Someone else can create the High School website.** Done! 🙂 Go ahead, close your eyes and point yer browsers at this site, you sickos. Um, **Broken Doll** , I can’t get to your site. But if you can get me a picture I’ll make sure your high school years are as out in the open as the rest of us. That way we can all cry in one big group. 🙂 ---

_gawks_ Ha ha! You guys! **Ruffian** , you look great in that picture. I’m still in high school. Get back to me in a couple years. Then at least I can claim that I look better than I do now without embarrassing myself. Though I’m actually not too bad when I’ve had a haircut in the last month. Unfortunately, that’s usually not the case. And whether I’ve had a haircut or not, facial hair is NOT a good look for me. And I hate shaving. Sigh. ---

Sorry for the poor quality…here’s a scan of my [senior yearbook photo](http://tamex.home.mindspring.com/tamexhs.jpg). In living color, my hair is/was nowhere near that dark, though. Class of '94, baby! **Calliope, FairyChatMom, and Ruffian** , you’re all wearing the same dress! At least **Hillbilly Queen** had to foresight to dye hers pink for contrast! 🙂 Where are all the sweaters? My yearbook is full of guys in sweaters, even if they never wore a sweater to school in their lives! Will that be the '90’s “bad yearbook photo” trait? ---

Dress, indeed. I believe I was in shorts, bra straps slipped off so they could wrap that velvet rag around me. Ours was a deep burgundy, tho the pics in the yearsbook were all B&W. I’m gonna have to dig out my yearbook now and wander down memory lane. I just know I’m going to see more guys that look like **swampbear**!! **SkipMagic** , thanks for compiling the pics! ---

I’m gonna try to rescan that pic of me to get it in color sometime in the near future. You really need to see that coat in color to really appreciate it. It looks like a brocade Victorian parlor rug. \ What **was** I thinking? 😕 Oh, and even though **FairyChatMom** and I graduated in the same year, I am still six months and six days **younger** than her. 😛 **SkipMagic** thanks, also, for putting up the picture page. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by superbee \* > **Anybody seen my[Barry Manilow](http://www.geocities.com/shannen_1973/punk) albums?** I hope this doesn’t offend the inner rebel in you (:)), but to me it looks more like you’re an extremely pissed-off Rick Springfield. “Jesse’s girl? Well, screw her, too!” No problem, **FairyChatMom** and **Swampbear**. Keep sending in those pics, folks, and I’ll keep putting them up. Of course, let me know what errors I hath committed in naming, etc… What we should do is start awarding titles. For example (I’m gonna pick on you again, **Superbee** ) **Superbee** could be voted “Most likely to kick your ass.” ---

Nice job **Skip**! Like the page so far, and as soon as I find my yearbook under all those layers of dust (think the CryptKeeper opening one of his tomes), I’ll scan and post a picture. ---

Actually, that pic was before Rick Springfields time…I think it was around '78. The really disgusting part, the dog collar I’m wearing, I pulled off a dead dog I’d found on the side of the road earlier that night. Still had the stench of death on it…but I’m MUCH better now… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-wanna-see-high-school-pictures/117045.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-wanna-see-high-school-pictures/117045.md?page=3)
