I just found this photo and I figured I’d share it with the class. (Heather took and emailed it to me a month ago. My inbox isn’t pretty, people. I am close to abandoning it entirely.)
It’s me and Wonkette editrix Rebecca Schoenkopf standing boob-to-boob doing something that is apparently supposed to be sexyface. Hers has a definite “rawr” quality to it and is on point. I, as Zandar pointed out to me on Twitter, look like I have to poop.
Back up offa me. I’d had about eleventy scotches at this point.
Thanks again to all who donated to Roadtrip 2012, and I plan to send actual thank you notes to those who sent snail mail to POWR.
Cheers!

For some reason that picture looks like a daguerrotype taken in 1875.
I sent snail mail, so I’ll be looking for my frameable thank-you note, which I’ll put right up next to my Obama pin-up.

You shoulda drunk Guinness, it’s probiotic.
Helps with the constipation.

Yeah, you do. Sorry. Her expression really isn’t any better. I’m not big on modern ‘sexyface’ expressions, although thankfully we’re past the vacant open mouth zombie eyes stare that as big ten years ago. Your normal smile is so charming I’m sure you don’t need anything else!

I think you look kind of overexcited. But in a nice way. She does look like she might take a bite out of someone.

@gogol’s wife:
It’s that Hipstermatic thing or whatever that craps up your pictures deliberately because they’re more, I dunno, hip that way.

Oh, some sort of “steampunk” device, I guess. Get off my lawn.

Looks like bad lighting & cheap cell picture – nothing to worry about :) I really enjoyed your adventure, although vicariously, since I had credentials to the “big speech” and 50k of us were left in the dust due to the venue change. Glad you three got to go :) Keep up the good work – I especially enjoyed your post today re: the PA voter ID suppression FAIL!!

I’d recommend you just stick to your natural smile. It really works for you while, um, whatever it is you’re doing there…not so much. Props for having the guts to share that photo with the whole class.

Can’t say the look does much for me, but the boobs are TOTAL winners.

That’s Commie Girl? I think that’s the first time I’ve seen a picture of her. Comrade “Prettyhead” indeed.

Please, please don’t say “editrix” or “actress” or like that unless you also say “doctoress” or “teacherette” or “Secretariette of State” or like that. An editor is an editor, an actor is an actor and a doctor is a doctor. Thanks very much. I know you didn’t mean it.

Who cares about the look? “standing boob-to-boob” is the operative part!
Seriously, you both look very nice, but I agree — your natural smile is WONDERFUL!
