Memories that unfortunately last a lifetime: A collection of the most embarrassing school photos ever If school days are supposed to be amongst the happiest of your life then why do so many kids look so awkward in their yearbook photos? Few of us can claim to having been looking our best during our teenage years and these kids are no exception. Adolescence is a tough time for any young person... growing pains, still figuring out who you are, maybe taking a little time to grow into your features. Unfortunately it's also a time when the photographer regular pays a visit to school providing countless opportunities to document passing fads and fashion faux pas. Embarrassing pictures often have a habit of surfacing years later, at somewhere like AwkwardFamilyPhotos.com, when hopefully you've out grown your passion for posing with a ventrinquilist dummy like young man in this bizarre selection of photos. If you recognize any of these people please be kind to them it's clear from this photographic evidence they suffered trauma in their youth, but hopefully they're in a better place today. Daddy's special little girl... probably a confirmed spinster to this day IT guy: This geek went on to make a fortune in Silicon Valley Not long after this photo her hairdresser was arrested for crimes against humanity The final frontier: This young man is probably still upset that we're not living on the moon yet I have to dance: This guy is performing somewhere in a one man show that shows off his unique freestyle moves Leader of the old skool: I wonder if this his young lady still manages to get her swag on? One hopes this young man was able to pursue his love of fire safety in later life Star of the show: Some people are just naturals in front of the camera Snake charmer: This young man either works in a zoo now or designs his range of reptile-themed jewellery Killer smile: I hope this young lady continues to look after those precious teeth so well All the star are out: The cruise ship cabaret circuit was calling for this young hopeful I don't know about you but I see a young Jimmy Fallon here Napoleon dynamite: You just know this guy still spends his weekends reenacting classic civil war battles An explosion of color: This guy dresses himself these days and only wears black as he recovers from this fashion faux pas Movie director or soccer star - this young man could have had it all Forehead to spare: I imagine this dude has kept the same hairdo 'cept now maybe there isn't as much on top Oh Jake! Where's pussy now? Probably in the large litter box in the sky Such a shame action ball didn't take off - the uniforms were so cool Whose the dummy now? Stephen King called and he wants his 'look' back
