No sheep's ass 'fros in this bunch!
1. Wear clothes that fit.
2. Pull up your pants.
3. Put your hat on straight. (The bill goes in the front.)
4. Get a job!
OK, guys, show us your fingers for the picture!
@Party ... is that the new "Spy Plan"?
Typical Morningside residents after their visit to Waitrose.
Looks like a picture of Benjamin in the background
@ Sammy ... Now that you mention it, the portrait on the wall looks more like Al Sharpton to me.
Awww. One of 'em must be the kid in red: http://foundmagazine.com/comments/11829/
.. All grown up.
I just want to mention to Party in his/her pants that BOTH of the two young men wearing ballcaps in this picture have the bills pointing forward.
The dude in the front actually looks like someone I know. (hale and hearty hello out to Diggitydiggitydiggity.)
Looks like Benjamin took a punch in the face. Or maybe has a big old dip of copenhagen in there.
I can't wait for the sequel to Katrina.
Hopefully it will be more biblical this time and drain ever drop out of Lake Pontchartrain.
Thug wanna' be's. Everyone is throwing a different gang sign! lol
When I first looked at this I thought the guy in the Colts gear was wearing one blue shoe and one white shoe.
Yeah does look as if Benjamin just finished up a UFC fight.
@Hiplainsdrifter-what does "I can't wait for the sequel to Katrina" mean?
In the front, looks like Ice Cube, Jay Z, and Andre 3000. In the back, P Diddy and Warren G.
using a rhyme generator offered some time ago by Sammy Davis Junior, Jr, I have created, for your reading pleasure, some crappy poetry based on this Find.
the hip hop boys
lest the readers go insane
pine spine in a bucket of blue back leeches! eat those leeches boy.
This lethal conflict was once just a game

dy-no-miiite!
So all the rain frogs came out

Better Living through chemistry, within I hide, try to shout

bust a cap in yo ass
And many a day's been spent trying to sell
molten flowers explode yellow as i pass
You treat your garden very well

rollin' wit' ma boys and a forty of Old E
Called to mind a stampede of our savior's apostles
Funny Clown, bunch a balloons

(dear Feminista: it means HPD is an asswhole. and probably a raging racist.)
Actually, these guys are the newest American Apparel models out strutting their stuff.
Did anyone notice the strange depiction of Benjamin Franklin on the wall behind them?
@Party In My Pants...
These don't look like the types that don't have jobs, at least not all of them I'm sure.
But I agree on the clothing bit. The Colts fan on the left seems to have been wearing bigger and bigger football jerseys through the years until it can be legally classified as a mu-mu! Look at the length on that!
uh, Mw, I think that is what Sammy Davis Junior, Jr was referring to.
party in my pants - you f***ing racist - how do you know they don't have jobs?
how about a little bit of respect for other people's culture other than your own.
and by the way - their bills are facing to the front, and you can't even tell where their pants sit from the picture, nice try.
it's people like you that make this world an ugly place.
I knew this was from New Orleans before I even read it. Seriously.
Can't we all just get along?
I can't take my eyes off the bottom R corner of the photo. It looks somehow damaged, but not. Like a tear, but it's not torn because the pic is there, complete. So what's going on there? On the left and centre it's clearly damaged, but there the bits are missing.
I am intrigued.
Wow, I'm dissapointed at some of the racist comments that came out from this picture.
They look like a group of guy friends being goofy and posing for a photo.
Well, you guys are kinda funny, too. Do you even READ other peoples' comments? Not that it's a requirement, or that most of them are worthy of your time, but Benjamin and the baseball caps have been mentioned.
Silly racists...this a group of deaf kids just saying hello.
@baby basil in the herb garden
I see what you are talking about and in the bottom left corner it looks like a little cat sitting on his brisket. But it is probaby just water damage.
@bbasil - It's a Polaroid, which relies on a chemical reaction to process itself, internally. That's what happens when you fold, spindle, or mutilate the photie before it's finished processing itself.
Is the young male on the right, in the silver track suit giving what is known as "The Shocker?" Which gang uses that hand symbol?
You people are falling asleep on the job. This is clearly Ghetto Booty front and center with the V.I.P.'s for the Summer Ball, gettin' their sip and tip on.

Just take a shower. It ain't that hard.
@brain..that's which gang.
photo taken at the BALLIN BIG MONEY event of 2007...due to an unforseen conflict,a backdrop from the BIG BOOTY BENJAMIN ASS-CHIN event of 2006 was used for 5 dollar photos...and it was a fuckin' BLAST!!!
I should have included that I was referring to the weird mustache Benjamin seems to have in the picture.
YO!
Ah yes, some remember the ghetto booty party that went by so quickly. I shaved my armpits for dat one!
When I was 18, just graduated from high school, I and two friends (a girl and a boy) hitch-hiked down the coast of California. We departed Portland, Oregon and went to LA. This was 1970.
When staying at a crash pad in the bay area, I split off with my camera and explored Berkeley. I ran into a group of teenage boys hanging out in a park near the university. I had a twin lens reflex camera, and black and white film. Well, I started talking to these kids, and they were pretty friendly so I asked if I could take their picture. They immediately struck the most wonderful pose!
I snapped only one picture. I was so excited to have the opportunity to photograph them, and my settings were ASA 400 so I wouldn’t have to use a flash. (I hate flash.) It was rather dark.. a shady eucalyptus grove. I told them I would send them copies of the photo, and they gave me a name and address. Of course I couldn’t see the result until the film was developed. Unfortunately the picture was slightly blurry. But it was a good shot, and would have been great, had it been in focus. I had a darkroom in my parents’ home, and I did print enough 8x10 copies for each of them, and mailed them to the address they gave me. I never heard from them. I wonder if they liked the photo, and I wonder where they are now.
So, this picture reminds me of those boys. These guys could be the grandsons of those boys.
I'm am disappointed with all the racist comments.
I also was unaware that you could determine if a person has a job or not just by a picture. I mean, unless they are holding a "Will work for food" sign or something, it's pretty hard to tell, especially in this economy.
Once I went to a hip hop concert with a friend and in the lobby, they had similar backgrounds set up so you could get your picture taken. This find makes me wish I would have got one.
@ lauren...and you SHOULDA COULDA WOULDA gotcha one of those pics..i have one from VooDoo fest 2004..me and friend in front of 50 Cent..another on Beale Street in Memphis..says SHAKE DEM HATERS OFF with two huge salt/pepper shakers..with..haters/lil people coming out of them..and i got the sample keychain this dude at George Clinton was selling..HE? is dressed in suit, think: pimp cruise wear..and SHE? has her thigh hiked up..he's holdin it..and they both have the freakin BEST smiles..and then me and friend, tropical backdrop, wicker chairs..BB King show, early 90's..GOOD STUFF..you shoulda done dat! Next time, yes?? 2 Live Crew would be ever so dandy.
Benjamin. Al Sharpton. All I know is that the man on the wall is the only one I would consider dating. And since I am sure he is asleep in death that is quite a stretch.
I almost forgot, it always seems like I comment soon after the Lauren in Muncie or visa versa.
Lauren in Muncie, did you notice that as well? And every time I think to myself "huh, there is a Lauren in Muncie. I wonder if she has noticed that we have the same name...".
HIPLAINS!!!! OH..SIR..NO SIR!!! ok, i'll lower my voice.uhuh..plainy..our angry, cranky..hiplainerroony..honey...whatisit...there there..we know..youre not racist..you hate EVERYBODY equally..equal opp hater, you are..seriously..and hihi? we just love ya so much..our big britches-witty-sardonic-sarcastic-brilliant driftereeny..but plainy..youre wantin' a part two? and more biblical? aw..all grown up, you are, and using big grown up words, playing in a grown up world...you're just so grown up, honey bunny!! go sit in the corner..right now. YES SIR. NOW.
Lauren in Wichita, KS
I notice you (creepy music)...we share the same town. (Even more creepy music)
I'm kiddin'. I like that there is a fellow founder around. It helps explain the humor!
Lauren in KS: Yeah, I have noticed that we often post around the same time. Laurens must think alike. Cool name, btw. :)
I noticed the benjamin backdrop yesterday, but didn't notice that "Benjamins" is credited for the Find.
the guy on the left in the white pants looks so familiar!
@librarian: RIGHT ON!!! those kids are CUHRAZY, this photo is from the "Barely Legal European Porn Stars..errrummm..Models Go Gangsa" catalog...generated BIG sales..Fantastic Campaign!! I was there..it was a smooth transition..
@ gettin my belt RIGHT NOW..OH, YES SIR, I AM - and I hope you're there as witness to the event.
I'd like to see the next picture in the sequence -- the one where all three of the gang sign slingin' dudes realized the buddy next to them belonged to a rival crew!
