Capricious Camera Captures

In the intrest of feedback, I will take the advice of blogging afficiando Biz Stone and request from you any ideas you have for picutres you might like to see. Latley I've been having [perhaps too much] fun with the camera phone. I realize that pictures I have posted may not be as enjoyable to those of you who are not, more or less, directly involved. My only desire is to please you, the Deirdo Speakish reader. I want to put my lack of photographic talents to use for you. I will do my best to oblige. Post a comment with your request and I will do most of what it takes to make your dream a reality. The only limitation I will impose is that there be no large amount of money involved in creating your vision. I'd rather not spend $100 on honey mustard, diapers, and a rented tuxedo.

OK, let's have some fun.

Oh yes, I also reserve the right to subjective interpretation. Some pictures make take longer due to content. Don't just do somethng, stand there!

Personally, I'd like to see a picture of a fat person in their natural habitat -- engorging themselves in food!

I'd like to see a cat in a party hat!

The comments above are far too complicated and/or difficult to capture. My suggestion is so easy, you can get up from the work you're doing and be done with it in less than five minutes. What I'd like to see is simply a big wad of toilet paper placed in a sink. Surely all the tools needed for such a project are readily available. And what could be more hilarious?

I'll tell you what could be more hilarious--anything. But more specifically, a third-party landscape shot of Jeremy in one of his awkward urinal situations. Now that's funny!

Jeremy said...

Oy, but despite any advantages in hilarity such a picture might hold over my toilet-paper-in-sink suggestion, it fails miserably in the immediacy comparison. Bryan really has no excuse for my idea not seeing the light of day at this juncture, as it is quick and painless and readily easy to construct. I was testing the waters of B-Monkey's reaction time, and I must say I am less than impressed.

Hey Hey now. Let's no not jump the gun ol' boy. Pictures have been taken. In fact they were taken only moment after reading your comment about 9:30am this morning. The delay in posting comes only form an inability to upload to the site via PCS network. As you may or may not know, I work in an office in the outlying sectors of Longview's city Limits. Transmitting from an already obscure local, and due to our current meteorological conditions, I have been unable to send the pictures. Or, I may just deny your request all together, due to your impatience. Blog Nazi. Or, I may one up your idea via 'subjective interpretation' and give you the sense of even greater merriment, which is what I plan to do. You will wait a bit longer, but you will feel twice as nice.

If I had a big bowl of fruit, I would lay it at your feet in humble apology. Forgive my excitement over picture possibilies. I clearly spoke out of turn. But what do you expect when you dangle a delicious berry above my head and refuse to lower it? [Said berry is in no way related to said bowl of fruit.]

I was just working out some mid-day aggression. Thank you for so humbly being at the blunt end of it. In addition, thank you for the clarifying note. I felt awkward, but was then relieved once inside the square brackets.
I should also address issue of future comments. I will be happy to return to this location to view your ideas, but this may be too much to handle in the future. If you all would like to just leave any new suggestions under the latest post, I will be sure to find them. I may also periodically just post a new request heading.

To address your earlier comment about the "doability" of my suggestion, I think you need to take that idea and re-think it. Look, generally persons of an oversized carriage are so due to compulsive and sustained eating bouts. Bryan usually goes out for lunch. VĂ­ola!

Anyway I think this is a great idea, Bryan. I think I'm correct in assuming that this picture suggesting-then-posting is going to become quite popular in our circle. In fact, I think we should devise away for it to be even more interactive (i.e., everyone trying to respond to a specific request) besides, of course, Mr. Moneybags who refuses to jump on the camera-phone convoy. I just realized I refered to a parenthetic statement outside the parenthesis. So don't bother pointing THAT out this holiday season.

Slurpee is right! Everyone get those camera phones out and haul ass to your local Wal-Mart!
