Got me, so here we go lads:
Flickr story: My age is not Twenty, I'm still a junior in highschool at age 17 (when I created my forum account, I felt uncomfortable sharing my true age), and I am taking digital arts classes. Within the class, one of our assignments was to manipulate ourselves to give us a feature we didn't have, be it an extra arm, big muscles, or in my case, a beard. So, naturally, being the slacker I am, I searched for a while in google until I stumbled across a guy who looked almost exactly like me, (second picture is actually me, but with the levels of contrast increased to make the imperfections stand out, giving an effect of age) so I literally just saved that photo and submitted it for a grade (which got a perfect score, by the way, which shows you how poor the teaching skill of my instructor is, considering a bunch of people sitting around on the internet all day long can f*cking NCIS style point every little detail out). Since, then, on most every forum I have been a part of I just post it on threads similar to this. I literally have a folder on my MacBook called "Photoshop Beard Guy." I mean, I know that it isn't me, and feel pretty scummy every time I do it, but the guy looks pretty badass. The photo with me compared to the other is actually the first time I've posted an image of myself on the internet other than facebook, so I'm really trying to move out of the whole "can't trust the internet with photos of myself" stage. You know, I burned a bridge when I first posted it, and it was too late to delete it. Here's an actual image of myself I've just taken on my phone,
I've gotten to the point of not worrying, you guys aren't that bad.

(go ahead and try to sherlock that one, I can post a picture of me taking the picture, lol)
