‘Bag of the week’ for November 3, 2008: Long Awkward Pose!

November 5, 2008 – 10:06 am

Never stop smiling! This link has been around for a while, but it’s still killing us.

It’s an oft-repeated experience: Your buddy picks up a digicam or cameraphone, and you obligingly assume a your ‘cheese’ stance. How long do you hold the frozen smile, though, before suspicion creeps into your mind? How long before you wonder: Hey, what’s going on here? The clips presented at ‘Long Awkwared Pose’ made us cry with laughter, and begged more questions than they answered:

  • How many times will a husband say “cheese”?
  • How long will a friend pose holding a football?
  • And when will a man begin to say demandingly: “Do you really know what you’re doing?”

Site owner Katie Dippold reveals the hilarity that ensues when people start thinking that way. Katie has hoodwinked friends and pranked family. Now she invites you in on the hoax. “Tell your loved ones you would like to take their photo,” she coaxes, and “then secretly videotape them.”

Check out Long Awkward Pose. Discovered via dsendecki’s LinkBag—bagged under Funny Links.

Remember, nothing left to do but smile!
