Tongue Friends?
FOUND by Oscar
in Morgantown, West Virginia
I was coming back home from school, and it was just laying there on the ground. I will look for them on campus, but I probably will not find them. People that happy do not stay long anywhere. They spread themselves thin and leave a piece of themselves in each one of us. This is my (our) piece.

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
are you sure those are tongues? they look at bit perfectly uniform, particularly at the ends
this is a picture after they got done tongue wrestling...
notice the swelling
it's not the people who don't remain; it's the happiness. mine left this afternoon.
my picture like this is now in a box, under some shelves, and i can't stop crying. or sleep.
Cute picture. Katie in Atlanta, That is the saddest statement I've heard in awhile. Unfortunately, I know what you mean. My boss stole my happiness. A bit virtual hug for Katie! I hope your happiness will return soon.
DOH! that's supposed to be a "BIG virtual hug" not a "bit."
The game 'I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours' took an unseen path this afternoon. Fortunately, photographers recorded this event......pictures at 10!
Katie and Jeff.....how very sorry I am to read of your sorrow. Both of you get BIG virtual hugs.
I hope when you awake that perhaps a little bit of happiness has returned. :)
Katie, you should get that photo out again, it might get dusty otherwise. You might even lose it like our Tongue Friends. I dont want that to happen
that is a happy picture
and a lovely note that accompanies
the comments, as usual, are terrible
I like this find and I love your explanation. It's because of things like that that I try to be as happy as I can be everywhere I go. That way people will have pieces of my happiness.
Big virtual hugs for Jeff and Katie.
I thought the notes were better than the find itself. The find is just a photo of two people poking their tongues out...nothing new or original in that concept. It is the notes that lift this find out of the mundane and transcend the reality of it.
Now to transcend *my* reality...
Her tongue is weird shaped .
"People that happy do not stay long anywhere. They spread themselves thin and leave a piece of themselves in each one of us. This is my (our) piece."
Beautiful.
They might look happy in the photo and they were probably very in love when they took the photo, but happiness doesn't last forever. What goes up must come down. If it seems too good to be true it probably is.
Love this pic. It's like happiness captured on paper. I wonder if she looked at it years later (b/c girls always keep shit like this), and realized how goofy they looked, and how the guy ended up screwing her around, anyway, and tossed it. Thus making it a found item, for our enjoyment.
one must be truly sad, or attention seeking, when one posts how sad one is in public. I've always preferred to keep my depression hidden under a big bushel of humour. That way, no one truly knows your pain, and you can suffer privately. much more dignified.
Yeah, um, recently broke up with our girlfriend, did we? Don't worry, you'll find another girl.
For all we know, the couple in the photo got married and will lead happy, fulfilled lives. If so, he probably married her because of her weird-shaped tongue.
I wonder how many posters here had to look up the spelling of "tongue", tee hee.
Alfonso? Alfonso Ribeiro? Is that you? Wow! I loved you on....um....well....I guess "Silver Spoons"?
i don't think these are real people or their real tongues. also, it gives me the creeps.
Johnny Rotten - No I did not just break up with my girlfriend. I'm not much for relationships. I see my friends with their significant others and all the bullshit drama that comes from it and I just say no thanks. Why do girls have to be so demanding and jealous if guys hang out with their other friends or talk to other girls. If they really trusted their other half, they wouldn't get jealous.
THIS SENTIMENTAL BULLSHIT I'VE BEEN WITNESSING ON FOUND THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS IS START TO ANNOY THE PISS OUT OF ME
Hugs, Katie - I've been there once before - only once - and ironically enough, caused by an a**hole who lives in Morgantown. You will get through it. I made it through by watching all of the Sex & The City episodes, in order, and copious amounts of chocolate. I probably could have just gotten laid, too, but my method didn't involve any innocent bystanders.
i been there darlin' just get a pint of ben & jerrys and a friend and it will be allright. <3
Oscar, happiness doesn't have to leave. Just remember that for all those pieces you leave behind, others are leaving some behind, too, so you can find more.
Unless you're a wombat. They have a weird digestive system that is upset by happiness, which is why they're always grumpy. Yeah, I said it. Always!
Salt, I am really sick of you, but I have to agree with you today.
A bunch of cry-babies post on this site.
I think this picture was taken in 1982. Something about the faces just gives me that feeling. (The cocktail wieners are a dead giveaway too. Those things were all the rage back then.)
Happiness is where you find it, not where you lose it.
Oscar - great find and even nicer sentiment.
I have to agree with Salt today. The comment that accompanied the note. Lame. Jesus, can't wait for hotmom to comment. Better yet, Clover.
If you don't like the comments - there are other places you CAN go.
Katie and Jeff, save it for post secrets. Weirdos.
Flargy, LOL!
Jeff & Katie - I'm so sorry.
(My boss stole my happiness once too - but you will get over it...and be better for it.
Fun find today. I wonder if they're still friends.
Looks like a photo booth shot.
Happiness 'killers' and 'thieves' are everywhere - even HERE.
Hey That Girl- I completely concur.
"HAPPINESS KILLERS ARE EVERYWHERE..." It's one of the few things in life you can bank on.
But then, so is happiness in the first place. And the pursuit of it!
Kevin and That Girl you are so right about them being everwhere. Especially online too.
I think this find would make a great greeting card.
Oscar - you could post flyers around campus with this photo on it ? Just an idea.
Jill in Boston, Puke. Turbo, "You crazy man!" Where's my favorite Mona Lisa?
BIG virtual hugs for everyone!
Creepy!
Rex, i think i finally did it. I was just trying to have some fun, but i think i might have really done it. Oh Mona Lisa, i do apologize for being such an ass. Please, come back? Your presence is missed, so much. I apologize for my rudeness, and my ignorance, it is truly inexcusable. I will lay down at your feet, until you find it in your dear sweet heart to forgive my sins against art, my transgressions against your lovely visage. Please, Mona, come back to us?
Oh Katie! I know there is nothing I can say that will help. But I do sympathize. I've always dealt with those situations by throwing myself into some project that takes up time. (not really advisable but it can get you through the worst of it if necessary) It will hurt less eventually. My heart goes out to you! Take care, Katie!
YOU DON'T MAKE THAT MUCH OF AN IMPACT, PEPPER.
I, ON THE OTHER HAND, DO . I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I AM EXCEEDINGLY FLATTERED YOU USE AND ALIAS BLATANTLY A SPIN OFF OF MINE
Salt, I knew that was you, impersonating me in the Louvre. I'm impressed.
Cute picture.
SALT has better things to do than to impersonate a worm like myself.
REX, ARE YOU MISTAKING ME FOR THE IMPERSONATOR? IF SO, LEARN TO BE MORE PERCEPTIVE AND KEEN ON MY TYPING MANNERISMS TO AVOID THIS IN THE FUTURE
JESUS CHRIST, I GOT YA
I don't know. I just wanted to help. I would rather help than harm. That's just who I am.
But on a more philosophical level no one can steal happiness. You have to allow them to do so. My rational side takes the stance that ultimately everything that happens to you is a result of your actions.
And happiness is ephemeral - a state of mind. Really, all you have to do is change your perspective and your emotions will change too.
But we all know it's not easy to be removed from emotion. Ahh, the human condition....
Kitten, Amen, You alone are responsible for your own happiness. As Ben Franklin says "You made your mind up to be happy"
wow, this sucks today. salt actually can spell... and he knows the difference between 'to' and 'too.' i didn't laugh once. i don't go to found for deep philosophical discussions about happiness or people being too damn literal (as seen in previous posts). argh.
SALT! I'm so flattered! But I'll have to pass.
Nauseating.
Next on Oscar's agenda is to write an Oprah book.
Another boring find. Nothing original about this. I have the same pic with my b/f's daughter.
All this SALT business is getting OLD! YAWN..........STRETCH...........YAWN........When the hell's my slave coming to scratch my chin and feed me some kibbles? YAWN..........STRETCH.........
Why is the photo so teeny? Is it a 3x5" or is it just one of a photobooth string of photos?
Wow! I just learned Morgantown, West Virginia is the hometown of Don Knotts! Rock out with you cock out, Morgantown!
So much melodrama. People grasping wildly for sympathy on the Internet are equivalent to drug seekers in hospital emergency rooms. Same goes for inflammatory fools.
Everyone just needs to be happy.
Rainbows and flowers with ice cream!
Wow.....so you call yourself "SALT" huh? Let me guess, you have TONS of friends and are really popular....right?
This can't be real. I mean, all the comments. It cannot be possible that there is this much to say about two people sticking their tongues out.
I'M ALMOST SPEECHLESS, PATHETIC IN FLORIDA. HOW CAN I EVER REDEEM MYSELF FROM A BURN AS GLORIOUS AS THAT?
GO GROW A PERSONALITY
At least you can admit it. Good for you. =)
YOU'RE NOT VERY PERCEPTIVE. I WOULD NEVER TYPE 'THE' IN LOWER CASE LETTERS.
Happiness is a warm gun.
hahahahahaha! You make me laugh "SALT"...keep up the good work.
Bingo, Hellcat!
I like salt. It tastes good on corn on the cob.
wow pessimistic penny. cheer up.
I think we all need to try and get along. :)
Hi Dave. Yeah, it is pretty incredible what we can do with little or nothing. We all contribute something to the posts and on good days we can draw them out for 15 hours or more.
But hey, its the best use of my time that I can think of.
Cheers!
DON'T KID YOURSELF, PEPPER. YOU WANT ME TO IMPREGNATE YOU ALL WHILE I SIMULTANEOUSLY CHOKE THE LIFE OUT OF YOU
Salt - that sounds so kinky! I love it. Do me next!
Wow... and now we've moved on to erotic asphyxiation. Totally didn't see that one coming. (and hopefully I never will)
This page has got the most depressing comments I've ever seen on Found.
Naw, these are life affirming, uplifting, joyous comments! Come on Siesie, you have to laugh. Laughter is good for you.
YOU'RE ALL WORTHLESS AND WEAK!!!!!
the comments section of this site has turned into a haven for pathetic, single, sewing circles.
cry me a river. Life hurts, but this drivel is so much more painful.
those people don't look particularly happy to me, and i don't want what they got spread on me.
boo on the subbie for the terrible caption.
thanks :)
That's my favorite Julie London song.
You sound awfully upset about the comments Decibel. Pissed cause you missed out on the virtual group hug?
I AGREE WITH YOU, DECIBEL. I DON'T WHAT ANY GREASY MINORITY HAS SPREAD ON ME
I WAS READING
"GONE WITH THE WIND" YESTERDAY AND FOUND A LONG ASS NOTE FROM JOHNNY TO PONY BOY IN IT---STAY GREEN MAN STAY GREEN
Ahem...may I speak about today's find, sir? (Geez...)
Sticking out your tongue can mean so many things; it can be naughty or funny or sexy. But when they're frozen in a photo, they look pervy. These ones do, imo.
On second viewing, the guy in this picture looks like Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
This is confusing. I can't follow these comments. It's like everyone is drunk or something. But then, the planets are kind of messing things up lately; read your horoscope.
I went back to yesterday's find to comment in the past about the future. I am really really mixed up.
I haven't been on this site for a long time because it got really boring for a while, unfortunately it looks as if I've missed much fun!! (but I always come too late)
SALT- even I caught on to the THE as soon as you said they needed to be more perceptive (jeez).
Florida- Anyone FROM Florida calling anyone outside of Florida pathetic is the most hypocritical, nonsensical thing I have ever heard. LEARN TO DRIVE!!!!!
Christina- I agree, he does look very much like Carlton, that makes the picture MUCH better!
The guy looks like Carlton Banks from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air! AMIRITE?
that or Steve Urkel but when he turns into the oh-so-dreamy Stefan Urquelle. This guy, not so dreamy.
someone already said that he looks like carlton. my life is over.
<i>wow.</i>
So, the reason these comments are lame is not that we're drunk. it's that it's all one or two lame dull-as-paint people talking to themself. I called in sick yesterday, so the half dozen banal posts with my name on em are someone else. YAWN.
Nice find, Oscar.
Turbo nailed it at 8AM. It's me, Alfonso Ribeiro. I'm very sad that he didn't love me in The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, however.
The people in this picture do not look happy to me at all. They look goofy, sure. But they don't look happy.
Dear Rex,
Eat shit. Puke? Who even says puke? 1983 called, asking for its slang back. I'm surprised I didn't read anything by you that said "Gag me with a spoon" or "bitchin!!!". Let me guess, you use IM a lot and overuse the phrase "LOL!!!"
ROFL LMAO LOL OMG WTF??
ToTalLy KewL Rex!!
Jill, in Boston
I know Jill. The imposter really needs to either get better at impostering or cut it the fuck out.
Or maybe they're happy because they don't stay anywhere long.
i went to high school with these two, sara and navi. at our after-grad party, there was a stand where you could take pictures with people to put on a little keychain. im pretty sure this is one of those.
sara was in love with navi throughout highschool, and he would just kind of play with her, acting like they were dating when it was just her and him, but a complete asshole to her around everyone else. they werent in love. this picture just documents two kids who were happy to have just graduated high school, one who happens to be madly in love with the other.
This dude looks like Carlton from "Fresh Prince"...but it seems all the chest hair growth formula he took went to his eyebrows.
