Classroom photo: Can you find the future supervillain?
August 2nd, 2008 • Related • Filed Under
Awww, look at these charming youngsters aping it up for the camera! Goofy faces abound!
But what’s this? A more subversive element arises in the frame. Have we spotted the next Lex Luthor? Cobra Commander? Darth Vader? Or perhaps we’re gazing upon the wicked grin of Sid Vicious 2.0.

Kids these days. Next thing you know, they’ll be building ray guns in their treehouses, and starting their own Sing-Along Blog…

I keep looking at the girl in the yellow shirt in the back. Is she still thinking about the best possible weird face she can make and did the teacher take the photo too quick for her creative mind?
Or is she the future Evil Queen that thinks all this is just bullocks. “Just wait ’till I’m big, I’ll show you evil. I will turn YOU into a frog. And YOU will be my humble servant for ever and ever. YOU there, you will put that tongue to better use than that…”

Yeah I agree with zZzacha. I also think the “Margot Kidder” looking girl beside her will be her number one Henchman.

Yellow shirt girl instantly caught my eye! A future Dr. Horrible?

Yellow Shirt Girl must be terrifying indeed to make everyone overlook the kid in glasses down front giving it to the camera with both barrels.

Didn’t their mothers ever tell them that if they did that with thier faces they would freeze that way?

When I was about this age, I got to go on the Bozo show in Chicago or something. At the beginning of the show, they pan across all of the kids (so mom can justify the trip, I guess) and tell you to make a funny face. My “funny face” involved putting a couple of fingers up my nose, which apparently violated the Bozo Code of Funny Face Ethics.
I’m the only kid I know that had Bozo yell at them. He did it right as the camera got to me, so in the broadcast you see just the tail end of the fingers-up-nose-funny-face, and then the beginning of a little boy crying.
Damn Bozo. No wonder people hate clowns.

Yes, front row kid looks like a regular Draco Malfoy in training.

I am flabbergasted that the 1st few responders did not notice “Mr. Happy Fingers” in the front row. I also agree that yellow shirt girl has some issues, but I am truly concerned for the boy in the 2nd row, on the end, who is wearing a HELLO KITTY shirt!!! Now that’s gonna lead to some serious issues when he grows up!!!
