PICTURE POST II!

[thestrangequark]

Thanks guys. A lot of people say that we look really similar and I think sometimes it's more in certain pictures than in person. But we sound almost identical, especially if we have been around each other a lot. We've confused our own mother, spouses, and I think even my sister's dog by sounding so similar.

I don't really look much at all like any of my siblings. We actually all look really different! But like you, my sisters and I sound exactly alike, and our mom too, so the four of us never know which one we're talking to and confuse other people all the time on the phone.

Similar situation with me, my brother and father, and my uncle and cousin on the same side of the family. Expect that we can/could tell each other apart, but no one else seems/seemed to be able to.*

And yeah, it's a combination of nature and nurture. There's a "dial" we can "turn up" to really milk it.

* - Past tense only because my uncle has passed away.

Here's how different I look from all my siblings (and how different we look from each other)...

Older sister:

Older brother:

Younger sister:

Me:

And just because it is a really fond sibling memory:

I just died of cuteness overdose.

I have some really adorable only-child stories, but suddenly they all seem completely mundane and bland. I won't even attempt to compete.

I think you look a bit like your younger sister, tsq. Which one did the sweater?

 

[Gaseous Anomaly]

I think they have the same smile and both are pretty.

Aw, thanks.

Yep, she's the talented knitter! This is my favorite picture of us together, taken at my older sister's baby shower a few years ago:

And as tots, because, look at that crooked smile!

Great pics of the happy sisters!

Here's one of me and sis, being all gangsta since forgot our caps and fashioned bandanas out of cloths when we where painting last summer:

Flukie wins. He always wins.

Don't believe me? Check the rules.

Oh, hi there.

I was walking my dog along a road I haven't been down before and spotted this custom stained glass window. I love when people personalise their homes like this.

 

[Data Holmes]

I don't like round windows...

Pink Floyd! I bet that looks awesome when the sunlight reflects through it.

 

[Mary Ann]

Yes, it's a shame that I had to take the photo from the wrong side. It's still pretty cool, though.

I particularly like the Chili dark chocolate variety:

Chili-flavored chocolate?

This is EXCELLENT chocolate. If you like chillies you really should try it. It's great, great stuff. Nice quality chocolate with a great chillie kick that really takes off as you just finish the square.

I like this too, but Lindt also do a 70% and an 85% cocoa version which are better.

They have a cherry & chilli coulis filled truffle with a 70% cocoa outer as well, that will knock your socks off. It's like snorting coke

If they have an earthquake, does it say "Reply hazy. Ask again later?"

Seriously, MLB, try it before you knock it. Folks were putting chili in chocolate long before we added sugar. Have you never had mole?
