Not a YAGT, promise.. But here are pictures of a facebook friend who displays quite vividly the power of picking proper angles and not showing your whole body. I'm not trying to be mean spirited, just trying to make a point. BEWARE OF MYSPACE GIRLS WITH OVERLY CROPPED PHOTOS.

Unless you're not superficial. I'm trying to get there myself..Alcohol helps..

Wow. Thank you freedomsbeat212. I never had any idea that pictures could be deceiving and I guess I was too stupid to figure out that on my own.
You should write to Time magazine, maybe they'll put this information out for the public and you can became famous.
Thanks for your great community service. What would we do without you?

You're such a noob... Everyone knows that women who only post pics that show themselves from the shoulders up are porkers (i.e. "North American land whale")..

This is the same picture of a chick you posted a thread about quite some time ago claiming how hot she is.

Time for you to find some new myspace pics, freedomsbeat.

Here is an internet tale that is related to the subject of the OP in three threads of a message board.

WARNING: The language is pretty bad, so click at your own risk. These are not nice people at this board.

Read them in order. They are quite long, but it is comedy gold.

The Swedish Chef is an add-on for the bbs software that translates the posts into pseudo Swedish, but the poster cannot see it.
