Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you’re probably aware of the Ermahgerd girl.
I find all the memes hilarious, but can’t help wondering how she feels about her photo being plastered all over the internet. Like her, I was pretty dorky looking when I was younger, but grew up to be so freaking gorgeous that I got a lady boner every time I looked at myself in the mirror. *
*Disclaimer – that may or may not have been a lie.
Since I’ve laughed hysterically at all the Ermagherd memes, I felt it was only fair to dig out some photos of me in my younger days and ermahgerdify them.
Who will join me?
Those moccasins were truly awful. Black with a nasty tan coloured wedge heel. Everyone else was wearing school regulation black t-bar shoes, and then there was me…
According to the caption on the back of the photo, this was my costume for my school history production where I did a poem that I composed myself. Bet that was a special kind of awesome!
Join the Ermahgerdify Yerserlf Movement on Facebook and turn those embarrassing photos of yourself into something cool.
Finally, being dorky when you were younger is paying off!

I wish you could see how hard I’m laughing right now. This is too awesome.
MERCERSERNS!!!! I love you so much.
I’m terterly doing this.
Good news: I found my old pictures!
Bad news: My old pictures are in a box at the bottom of a stack of boxes that touches the ceiling in the basement.
I WILL dig them out today – but there’s no way I can compete with your captions!!!

Sadly, no. It was my school uniform at primary school. When I moved up to high school we had lovely brown ones!

Oh no. I love this meme too much. Just too much. I can’t even take it, it’s so funny. I love the pictures, and the captions…
NO. I have to go to bed now before I have a stroke.

Ermahgerd I’m all concerned now that I might have made you sick. Take slow, deep breaths and think of your happy place.

Fine, fine. Maybe I’ll finally have to dig some pictures up after I get back from the conference. I mean, you know, if I actually have any. I never really went through an awkward stage. (cough)
(Guitar Camp) (Spelling Bee Champ) (Traveling Baton Competition) (Talent Show singing the theme to Laverne & Shirley) (Dr. Scholl’s with really short terry cloth shorts)
It’s gonna be a REAL challenge.
Funny stuff, WM.

Awesome, can’t wait. Is there any video of you singing the theme to Laverne & Shirley, cos I reckon that would be a special kind of awesome?

Not sure about video but I could probably find a photo somewhere. I was Shirley so my friend had the “L” on her shirt.

I love that terrycloth sunsuit. I loved them when we were 10. I don’t love them when I see them on women today. They’ve made a comeback. And they are an atrocity on an adult!!!
