Public Service Announcement
In case you ever find yourself standing for a profile picture (say, for a brochure or a play, or if you’re the flippin’ CEO), for cry eye (hi krystyn!) NEVER, ever stand with your back against a wall. This goes sextuply for a glossy wood door, and googltuply for flash.
Just… Don’t… Do it. Three steps forward. Please.
(brought to you by a photo-manipulator on the edge, thirty crappy dealer photos later)
EDIT: Additionally, because it needs to be said: Using a flash photo from your favorite bar, with your stunned wide eyes and open mouth, is probably not the best career move ever.
Confused, stupid, in pain … my psyche can handle them individually. Putting them together is like a flash bomb, leaving me groping for fluorescent spectres and hoping my vision will someday return.

But he made me stand against the wall today!!
That’s it! Trouble!
