In the good old days you would banish embarrassing family photos to dusty photo albums. However, we’ve managed to discover some hilarious, awkward pics that you must see. We’ll see freaky babies, punks, goths, human reindeer, angry bulls charging brides and grooms. Also, a truly terrifying Bert, Ernie, and Big Bird to haunt your nightmares. If only you’d sit back and relax for just a moment, ready yourselves to feel genuine pity for these poor folk.
Ugly Christmas Sweaters
Well, to tell the truth, we have no idea what’s going on when this couple was showing off their best ugly Christmas sweaters. We’ve got two theories. The second is that she sat on something she shouldn’t have sat on, like a rogue Christmas Brussels sprout.
The second theory is that she saw it in the 10th of a second of the camera shutter snapping that she had made a mistake in marrying her husband and living those last 20 years with him, and she was running to the nearest lawyer’s office to file for divorce.
BaseBrawl
This proud family wanted to photograph an important baby moment but ended up with more than they bargained for. They explained, “While taking some touching photos of my baby sitting up for the first time, his brother and cousin decided to join the photo.”
Bro and cuz are having a right old backyard scrap in the background. In fact, you could say the two boys are having a base brawl! Since the baby is being introduced to baseball, we’re gonna go ahead and call him Babe Ruth.
I Want Daddy
At first glance, this photo seems to suggest that the little kid just doesn’t like his mom. But putting our Sherlock Holmes deerstalker hat on, we think we’ve worked out why he doesn’t want his mother anywhere near him, and the reason is pretty distressing.
Mom took her son to her local salon and asked the hairdresser to give him the same haircut as hers. No wonder he looks so unhappy. You’d be, too… if it happened to you!
Baby Sitter
When this family placed an advertisement for a babysitter in the local newspaper, they were surprised when this small fluffy dog showed up at the door. But everything soon made sense when the dog proceeded to sit on their baby.
There’s also a baby’s eye view of this incident, but we thought it better not to show that angle. In an ironic role reversal, when the same family advertised for a dog sitter later in the year, a baby showed up at the door. True story!
