OMFG what is up with the fuzzy pink nudie suits?!!!!! and why, for the love of all things good and decent, is dad letting little susie DO THAT?!! I don't care if it IS a flippin' costume!!!!!!!!
God, my eyes.
God, my eyes.

@1: Jesus fucking holy crap! That is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen! Whyyyy?????

And Sullivan saw it on DListed who posted a link this morning AND I posted the disturbing "nude" family on my blog three hours ago...get with the program Slog.

@4 Who cares when they posted it. It's funny. The whole "I posted this XXX hours earlier" shit doesn't make you cool.

Yeah I imagine that little girl is all grown up now and decided to reveal the photo to the world on her therapist's advice as part of the healing process.

From the comments:
Oh, for chrissakes, not everything results in trauma. If people were honest, you would find a bit of sexual play in every family.

makes me cooler than some faded ass who didn't register...hey, dude, The Stranger likes to crow how cool and hip and up to date they are...they need called on it when they're a day late to the parade...esp when it's yet another damn link to Sullivan, apparently the only site Dan ever reads.

@1 - I was thinking that Exactly!!
Do you think they ever went over the ground rules for 'appropriate touching' in that family?
@13 - Do you think that the comment might be from "little Suzie all grown-up"
I like Mr. Herriman's suggestion that the appearance of the pic online is part of the healing process.
OMG - you don't see stuff like that everyday, and thank goodness for small favors.

at least these people can get their whole families into one picture. nudie suits or not, at least they all look happy together.

did anyone notice that Mom's nipples seemed to veer off in two different directions?
they seem to follow you around the room...

That site - and that Family Tree photo in particular - made me cry real tears. I have not laughed so convulsively in years.

mom in the pink suit needs a bilini pluck
the pic is a horror - totally - some one needs to go to jail
could be better if dad had a hard on, with both kids touching, really
