Being Photogenic

["Melyssa K" Kennedy]

Its not a "better than others in all pictures" thing. Its more that the likelihood of a picture of you looks good is greater than the average person. Some people truly photograph better than others.

I do from certain angles, but I hate how I look from other angles. So embarrassingly weird.

photogenesis

Huh? What is "photogenesis"?

Rofl, photogenesis is a real thing, but it has nothing to do with being photogenic. Photogenesis is the emission of light by bacteria. If anyone here is doing *that*, they should probably see a doctor :P

Eh, i sort of lean towards it being real. I know some attractive people who take pretty bad pictures - ie for some reason they always tend to have really awkward body positioning (ie seeming unnaturally stiff).

Huh?

When I said photogenesis, I was simply fancifying a word under the Latin word fancification procedure. The word photogenic will lose the suffix "-ic" and will be replaced by "-esis", which assists in the transition of adverb into indefinite noun. I have engaged in this activity to gain appearance of utmost intelligence; however, upon having my opinions and procedures shattered by our Word Doctor Llamas, it appears that what I gained is rather a shameful loss of clever wordsmanship and crafting dexterity, and the general appearance of stupidity, of which I am compensating for by weaving intricate, mellifluous, and Shakespearean/ late Victorian sentences, which I attempt in godsped earnest to attain the achievement of sounding like our preamble in the blessed Constitution of the Republic.

I have to admit, this was pretty funny

I need a name tag that says Word Doctor Llamas. That would confuse the shit outta everyone.

Thank you very much, everyone. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I certainly enjoyed writing it.
