My son, who tries to act anti-social has discovered a way to get attention from his peers. He is double jointed in several ways, one of which allows him to contract the muscles of his shoulder so that you can see the outline of his collarbone and shoulder bones.....looks kinda like a skeleton arm with a thin layer of skin over it.

It actually get a lot of attention from the girls. As my 15-yo old cousin put it, "It's creepy, but kinda cool at the same time."

So, my little darling decided to show this talent off for the school pictures. According to him, the photographer didn't seem to notice and took the picture that way. :banghead:

I won't know for sure until the pictures come back.

You'll have to post the pic. :lmao:

OMG... I so hope he's telling the truth! That would be hysterical 20 years from now...:killingmeIt is not terribly funny now, however. :ohwell:

:lol: What a great conversation piece for when he's an adult!

I strongly discourage you from posting the pic, and I know you won't, but I'd love to see it. :lol:

:yeahthat: Crap like this really pisses me off. Boy just does not think. I am ready to get a remote control unit implanted in his skull so I have total control over him so he stops annoying me with this stupid crap. Oh the joys of teenagehood to come. Anybody have some valium for me?

I am ready to get a remote control unit implanted in his skull so I have total control over him so he stops annoying me with this stupid crap. Great :rolleyes: that way you can BOTH annoy the hell outta me. Good thing that's not an option or else I'D need the valium.

Sorry, you'd get the first implant.

I think it's awesome! :clap:

And Huntr, he obviously was thinking, or he wouldn't have done it in his picture, and would have just had the "cheese" smile. :eyebrow: Pretty smart eh?

Him: "What can I do to make Dad's head explode today? I know! :shoulderpop:"

:banghead:

Mine wanted to wear a green hat for his school pic and would have if I didnt hide it from him. He probably borrowed someone elses hat and Ill find out when the pics come in. Kids can be so much fun.

:killingme When I was 7 my mom and dad took us to get our 1 and only family picture ever done. I was so bored I rolled my eyes into the back of my head for one of the pictures.

Mom was not happy when she got the proofs back. :killingme

I say buy them!

Maybe I will, but crop out his face.....but I'll be sending them back and having them redone.

I'd get them redone but I'd make him pay for this set and keep them also.
Will wish you had years from now.

I like that idea.

That is so funny. My son wants to wear a bow tie and his favorite cowboy shirt for his picture.

He looks like a little punk.

He looks like a little punk.

You gonna make him retake it?

(Personally, I'd leave it and have a conversation piece in about 10 years. :lol:)

He looks like a little punk.

:lmao: Sorry for laughing, I know you're less than thrilled. :lol:

I like poster's idea - make your son pay for the retake but keep this one. It's funny but in an irritating kind of way when you're the parent and want to send out great pics of your kids to everyone you know! I'm glad I wont have these issues for a few more years.

:lol:

Save this for when he REALLY does something stupid. :yay:

Wow. I guess I'd be frustrated, as well - but I kind of like the ideas of save the picture for the future and posterity and use it against him in some way!(conversation piece is a good idea!) :lol:

And WTH - just send 'em out with a note at Christmas and claim aliens abducted him or something. :lmao:

I think its adorable. He looks like such a tough guy! I like it. Theres always next year.
Personally, I really enjoy when a kid has a little attitude and personality..

Might as well get a script now and keep it through the "driving" years. Teen boys are not smart drivers. I know this.

Teen boys are not smart.

:yay:

:roflmao: It's so funny when it isn't your own kid. :lol:

Poor Dymphna and Huntr :roflmao:

As if this is the worst to come.....:lol:

Actually, that would make a good picture to put on his tombstone... That way you could kill him and still laugh about it years later.

All he needs is a pack of camels. Think I'll start calling him Vinny Barbarino.

'Cause you're just old and stuff.
