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...
Good think I magnified this, since at first I thought they were in snow.
"The Breakfast Club 2: Detention in the Desert"
Wow. Worst beachgoing clothes EVER!! Do you think it was an accident they ended up at the beach? Or did they plan to go like that?
By the way, I don't understand your blurb or your name, Bryantt.
Oh mannn. I love this. Totally Breakfast Club.
Or Three's Company.
Come and knock on our door. We've been waiting for you.
With croquet clubs to beat the crap out of you, now pay your friggin' rent!
Or maybe not.
Regardless- They were definitely stylin'.
How to NOT Improve Your Home:
Be these people and live in it.
Why does this pic give me the cold shivers? Is it the inappropriate clothes and total absence of towels? It just makes me think that these 3 are on the prowl, trying to hook up with someone who thinks they're going to do something fun and ends up being the star of their next snuff movie or something.
Anybody remember that cheesy horror flick, "The Beach"?
Been there and done that. Trying to look really cool at the beach after a night out at the disco. 32 degrees, cold sand, and no shirt. At least the beer stayed cold!
He took off his shirt so she could sit on it. That's so rad.
People! Look where this was found: Minneapolis. That might be a beach, but it isn't sand ... it's SNOW. Hence the "inappropriate clothes and total absence of towels." This photo was taken in January while these three were on MLK, Jr. Day holiday from school.
Heather (r.) had the idea. "Guys, let's go out to the park and pretend it's summer." Billy (l.) and Jess (c.) agreed. They picked up Todd (taking photo) who had the i.d. to buy beer, and off they went. Billy was the only one to get into the spirit of things by taking off his shirt and chance the frostbite on hit nipples.
On Tuesday, back at school, they thought they were the talk of the hallways:
"What did you do yesterday?"
"We went to the beach."
"No way."
"Way!"
This reminds me of my college road trips. We'd jump in the car, and head out to an unspecified destination. When we got "there" sometimes we'd be totally unprepared...except for more BEER!
Those were simpler times, when a six-pack, a nickel bag, and a toke-master was all it took to make us happy!
Definitely sand, not snow. That looks like the Florida state flag flying from the "hut" in the background. My guess? This crew came down to the panhandle in February or March thinking "Awesome! Florida!! Beach, babes, beer!" Instead, they arrived on the coldest day on record...Note that there is absolutely no one in the background! Tried to take a picture to prove to their friends that it was "RADICAL MAN!" but when it was developed, the oversized, can-hide-a-teen-preganancy-in-that sweater ruined all chances of people believing them. Dad found the picture and after locking his daughter back into her room, shoved it into the home improvement book and went back out to pound some nails into the deck to hide his pain at his little girl's loss of innocence!
Good times!
@Gator - hilarious! That's exactly what I was thinking.
Went out to Roswell don-cha-know, and I met these aliens in the desert. They said they learned of our culture from mid 80's movies.
You can see their ship in the background. It's camouflaged for the tropics.
I thought the standing dude was holding up some kind of a tool (pick ax??), then the almighty magnifying tool made it not so.
you snow people are crazy.... there's no snow on the buildings or fence. It's definately sand!
Also, I LOVE the middle girl's sunglasses.
The shirtless guy is wearing Z. Cavaricci's! I'm glad he took the time to stop by Merry-Go-Round on his way to the beach.
Because nothing says, "I'm a stud," like coral-colored pleated pants with a super high waist.
Enquiring minds want to know how shirtless guy got a tan in the middle of winter. Tanning booth? Spray-on tan?
Hope black-pants chick brought a whisk broom with her to sweep the sand off her behind.
MC Hammer's Pants
In loafers Don Johnson sockless-style
and ...hmmm is that a hint of mullet?
Snaggin and blowing up extra
looks like some yummy Miller High Life
Nice white sunglasses and skin tight
stone washed jeans... excellent
and in any case or time - I wish I was sitting on a beach right now...
seriously Red? thats EXACTLY what you were thinking? that's creepy
Yes, EXACTLY. Creepy? Nah, I've gotten used to it...
Posing for the cover of thier debut Polka Band Album cover... don't ya know!
Definitely a Morning After shot.
I thought pleated coral pants shirtless guy was holding a microphone, and they were making a movie-- just a beer I guess.
Love the skinny jeans on the seated person with camera- those are comin' back, don'tcha know. (just as long as the pleated high waisted ones do NOT.. oh, wait. American Apparel tells me that they ARE... in such loverly colors as coral and plum.)
What do you think the person who took the picture is wearing? And is there, somewhere, a photo of the photographer, taken by Skinny Jeans (and puffy slouch socks)? Tucked away in a DIY Bathroom Remodeling book?
Let's not forget the woven-top leather slide on shoes Peach Pants is wearing. Or are they Sperry Top Siders, which are also making a come back, in fluorescent colors, too? Gasp!!! Don'tcha know?
Looks like the white sand beaches of Destin or Pensacola, aka, The Redneck Riviera.
I know exactly where this picture is taken, cuz I livees on that beach!
Kick'in it live like 1985. Florida flag over hut on right. Cuttin' World Civ. with the cool kids.
It's James Molendaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Looks like a morning after scene from "Less than Zero". You know they're all hung over as crap.
@ Rebecca in Sane
Most brilliant. I would camp out for tickets to that!
I really can't tell if the middle one is a boy or girl! I guess it's a girl because of the slouch socks but what kind of boy haircut is that? EW!!
f mescaline, and she had done two herself. We drove around for hours. Well after midnight, she threw open the side door of the van and we all piled out, running across "the beach", but we never got to the water. It turned out to be a big potato field, plowed, waiting to be plan
I think it looks like a fabulously cheesy 80s album cover.
I wanna party with Farmer. Hopefully there'll be some *fizzy mushrooms* involved.
I wanna party with fizzy shrooms, too!
OMG, I'm freakin pissin my pants laughin right now!! This pic is hysterical. Got the "beer"" what else do you need????.Oh, obviously not you're shirt hey Doug!!
@cotton...you whisked me back to the days so quickly, i almost skipped outta work to relive them! 'course i live in a coastal city so we always ended up at the beach, prepared or otherwise....and always stocked with beer and goods...aaahhh teen years
oh, and real men wear coral....
There is no camera in Skinny Jeans' hand- just a beer. And s/he's wearing those white, plastic-framed "Vuarnet" style sunglasses..
Must have just read a post from librarian. (*chug chug)
Breakfast Club, yeah okay. But the skinny jeans kid (regardless of gender) reminds me of Ducky Dale, and of course, shirtless guy would have to be Blaine.
Woww!!
The chick in the middle is definitely a chick, look at her legs. Why is everybody hating on their beach attire? Haven't you ever just walked to the beach to chill out? Regardless its a classy pic, I might make it my screen saver for a bit. Bryantt, haha on just another place to have a party.
This photo is my dream.
what an awkwardly cute picture?
The dude has weird pants.
That's all I've got to say.
Spring Break!
I'm with Chrome, but we mustn't let Farmer drive this time.
Freon, where the heck have you been?? Good to see you again!
They had a dream of making an album, but all they had was the cover.
Yeah, that's the beautiful white sand of Pensacola beach. The bar behind them is the "Dock". And it was taken in the very early '90s; we had just had a hurricane that wiped out the businesses on the other side of the bar. There you have it, it's NOT SNOW! Man I miss my beach… =-(
actually, i think they're in alabama....isn't that the state flag behind them? it's really funny that it ended up in library book in minnesota!
The dude standing up with the brewski bears a striking resemblance to the character Dalton (played by Patrick Swayze) in "Roadhouse."
That's a Florida flag, I'm pretty sure.
yep, this is def Pensacola beach in the mid 80's. I could spot that crappy bar anywhere.
I know where they are at. I am going to guess they are at Jetti Park in Cocoa Beach, FL. This is where the cruise ships go out. I am almost certain that is the place because I used to go there as a child.
