I always thought that Mr. Pinko was pixelating his pictures. Turns out, that’s his face from birth. He tells me it was a complicated, and tragic, forceps accident.
Here’s one from a reader that is going to be hard to top. This person got caught in this predicament and couldn’t get out. When mom found them she didn’t rush to extricate. She rushed for the camera.
Who is this?
Already predisposed to hold a cellphone…
BTW, on the last post BFH said “Who is the most famous pixelated person??? hmmm??”
This after Mr.Pinko had been guessed many times.
Is this CNN!!!???
That’s because I expected EVERYONE to immediately say Pinko!!! -bfh
That has to be The Rat Fink, Jethro or VietVet.
I’m guessing VietVet because I think he got his sass from his Mom (what with running for the camera first!).
I have no idea but that is an adorable picture!
omg that is hilariously adorable!!!
I was gonna say Claudia but I just saw that she commented. lol
Brown Eyed Girl?
Obviously a conservative in the making… the middle child, not adored like the firstborn, nor coddled like the youngest. Just photographed when finally noticed and coping –without complaining–alone. Rugged individualism 20 years in the future.
The child is 12-18 months old, late 1950’s / early 1960’s… no clue who this is… This is our ‘Everyreader.’
MJA, that WOULD be just like me. I got into so much mischief.
Remind me to tell you about the time I punched my leg through the floor of the attic – AFTER Dad told me not to go up there.
LM Annie, Loco is indeed a middle child!
I may have to send Fur photos from my yout.
LOLOL @ Claudia.
But hey, I’m super clumsy, so I can’t laugh that hard at you. 😀
Pamela Geller
AA?
Baby shoes always fascinated me.
They were hard and unforgiving and people used to bronze them!
Anyone remember the trip to the shoe store?
It was always stressful as a kid.

That name bloomed in my mind for no reason I can imagine. But there it is.
That’s gotta be Loco after a baby bottle of Mezcal
hmm… MJA just admitted she’s super clumsy. I’ll go with MJA.
What a little cutie.
Brad I was weened on agave but only from the Jalisco region, thus Tequila runs through my veins, not Mezcal…
hanging w/ Eugenia … it’s Abbie
Little Morphin Annie — Such an astute assessment of the situation. Bravo!
This is such an adorable picture. It’s a wise baby who knows when they’re licked and the only thing to be done is to take a nap. But I give up, I’m terrible at guessing these things. I’m going with Uncle Al again because eventually I’ll be right. That’s a good strategy, I think. Kinda like Democrats and their candidates. Maybe I need to rethink my strategy.
I shoulda gone with Mr. P. on the last one because he’s always going on about preserving his anonymity. LOL!
I think there’s a similar clue in this pic, just can’t find it.
Waiting for Santa?
Abigail, LOL!
Brought out a chuckle.
Mom had a sense of humor and the foresight to hold this over his head for years.
I don’t know why, but I see Merry Poppet.
That is really one of the cutest baby pics I’ve ever seen. Ahhh, to be that secure again. And all that yummy baby fat! Just look at those wristles. I don’t think I’ll ever get over baby fever. Keep those baby pics coming, guys!
I was going to guess GoldenFoxx, but now that I see the guess of Merry Poppet, I bet that’s it.
@Claudia (at 9:36 pm): Me? Sassy? Naaah.
Plus, our gas heater wasn’t that model. I did spend a lot of time in front of it in the winter, though, when I was a kid.
That’s a sweetie! And that thumb is just itching for a cell phone!
Tired Dad and I laughed ourselves silly over this picture. I don’t know who it is, but the photo takes first place!
He looks like he has another 20 minutes until he’s well-done.
I know this pic, and it does explain a lot. However I must say there was no child abuse, fetal alcohol, or lack of oxygen to the brain involved and she grew up to be an incredible and (mostly) well adjusted wife and mom who went on to do the same to our kids.
I thought that was a natural gas furnace grate. We had one in my teens.
My first thought was suicide
Hung by the scruff of the neck at such an early age. Gonna be one tough mofo. Probably, Vietvet, Joe6pac, Brad, or Doc.?? Definitely not Larry.
Well, that was fun! Thanks for all the swell comments. I hope no one thinks badly of my mother… she always went with her instinct – humor! She made me the unspoiled, self-sufficient smartass I am today!
Now for the record, I did up her game with our three kids. One is a doctor, one has joined the family business, and mini-me is kicking up her conservative heels at college! I made mistakes (as every mother does)… but I resisted the temptation to reach for a camera!!!
So Whatshisface and Whatshername are a couple? What are the odds of people with those names finding each other?
whatshername! lol. That picture had me giggling since I saw it. (still giggling) 😀
I do no know her; but I think I like your mom!
Too bd it wasn’t Hillary.
Gotta be Viet Vet, started drinking at an early age, got shipfaced and had to be hung by the fire to dry out!
Wait, it’s not me is it?
