    I could never 😭 my heart sinks when I look in a mirror, I don’t need a mirror that specifically highlights and exaggerates my flaws.

    I wish I had the balls and emotional security of the people who get this done and then laugh about it! They’re inspiring, in a way. Something to try to emulate.

    I don’t get how caricatures have persisted: people pay and sit to have someone do Ren & Stimpy OCs of them. At best, it’ll look like an insult.

        Assuming you mean, I have to take myself less seriously. I make fun of myself all the time. I am, by practice, one of the least serious people I know. I just don’t like the art and every caricature I’ve seen is in this style.

        Do people actually like caricatures or is it just a thing that sticks around because they were famous, like clowns and mimes?

          Maybe they hang it up in their bedroom to raise the difficulty settings on their sex life.

          I got my caricature done once as a kid and I’m still recovering. If he’d done me up like this I’d never fuck again.

        But they are all so ugly.

        I haven’t seen a single one that I thought was funny.
