Welcome to another edition of Misadventures in Stock Photography! Today you’ll meet You Can’t Make Me Smile Guy (YCMMSG). YCMMSG is
who, upon
in the (obviously clone-inducing)
of the
, declared, “You are
!”, immediately began to grow his hair,
and said, “Hey, baby, give me some sugar
.”
They never learn about the hair, do they?
“Oh, Mom, look! A black kitty! Doesn’t he have pretty turquoise eyes?!” -Mayhem
(Crap, is it time to have that talk with her?!)
Nope they never learn about the hair.
Not sure I like that expression on his face

Long hair, and not blond, but white this time. :-O Poor YCMMSG…you do realize I had to think way too hard to type out that acronym correctly. lol
Oh, no. ‘The talk’. Good luck with that!
.-= Ava March´s last blog ..Pool Party Meme =-.
Looks like a bear to me.
.-= trek´s last blog ..On chairs =-.
Give up on the hair indeed.
.-= Tam´s last blog ..Sunday Shorts =-.
Mayhem, not only are their naughty boys they girls are naughty, too!
.-= margene´s last blog ..Lovely Weekend =-.
Well, that black kitty made me smile, Mayhem.
.-= Brigitte´s last blog ..A Crack in the Armour =-.
Uh oh – Mayhem’s planning to become a black cougar. Look out, all you young studs!
.-= Cheryl S.´s last blog ..Amsterdam Atmosphere =-.
I might not be able to make him smile, but he sure as hell makes ME smile…and that’s all that matters.
Wow. I have only 2 comments for the Quartetto cover.
1) Fix the hair! I mean, it isn’t impossible to do well, but don’t make your interns do it.
2) Does the woman need a snack? I make some pretty good cookies and some excellent burgers (for a vegetarian) and that is an awful lot of bony ribs.

Oh, ugh…also commenting on the HAIR. Yuck.
Chris, your editor thinks you should pare down the model’s name to Grim Guy. “GG” would work too. 😉
.-= K. Z. Snow´s last blog ..So what’s new? =-.
May- Yes, very pretty turquoise eyes.
I think that guy was going to crack a smile…
.-= Lorraine´s last blog ..Not much here…. =-.
Ugh, the long hair’s got to go!!
Loved today’s post and good luck with “the talk”.
.-= Lily´s last blog ..Deadly Dreams by Victor J. Banis =-.
Uhhoo….. Think the “talk” is coming up sooner than you thought, lmbo!!!
Let me know how that goes… lol…
Thanks for the smiles honey!!
I hope you are having as good as a Monday can be!
That hair was actually painful to look at!
I need to find some of that that clone inducing Stellar Heat…I might actually make my deadlines that way.
Oh May…that kitty’s wearing contacts.
He sure is purty. *licks*
How many pictures do you take a week of your kitty? I always have mine ready in case my kitty does something adorable.
.-= katiebabs´s last blog ..WTFckery Or Not? You Decide =-.
Ummm – wow – that one cover… I just don’t even know what to say.
Good grief, even I could do a better job of Photoshopping hair onto YCMMSG.
.-= kmkat´s last blog ..Animal funnies. =-.
Definitely time to have that talk with the Panther Princess…
Are you sure this isn’t Ben Stiller from Zoolander??? I think I recognize that pose!
.-= Julia Rachel Barrett´s last blog ..I’m a bold-faced liar. Or am I? =-.
LOL Chris;
It is tough to decide when to have “the talk” with the young ones isn’t it.
Do you like those blue eyes Mayhem? Yummy…
Love Stock Photography.
I hope you enjoyed a nice weekend Chris. I can’t see all the pictures here at work but am going to revisit if I’m not semicomatosed by the time I get home tonight.
Thanks for the giggle..
L
Wow. Just wow. Who looked at that hair and said, “I think that looks good”? Seriously.
When you sit down with May to have that talk, remember to be open and honest. Also, talk to her about how good kitties can wind up with bad reputations, and she shouldn’t through hers away over some sexy eyes.
Omg! I want all these books! They are all going on my TBR list.
.-= Anna Shah Hoque´s last blog ..Hottie of the Day =-.
Yes, it is that time. Can’t Make Me Smile guy must have bad teeth;-P
.-= CindyCindy´s last blog ..Newsy Monday =-.
The Hair????? Holy Crap. It looks like he’s wearing a veil. Toss a sheet over his non-smiling mouth and it’s a burkha.
Poor May…she’s much too young, much, much too young. Innocence fades so fast;).
.-= Melanie´s last blog ..Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig =-.
I planned on making myself a dress to match my cover girl, but sadly there aren’t enough burgundy scarves in the world to cover my ample rump.
Uh-oh! Not That Talk! LOL! Wish I could listen in on that conversation. 😉
Well, they certainly got their money shot…used it seven times.
OMG they photoshoped Cher’s hair on those boys!
Some of the hair stuff is pretty bad…but that cover must be the worst!
Okay that one hair cover is actually painful to look at. At some point you’d think they would realize that the hair thing never works.
Better to have “the talk” too soon rather than too late.
.-= Sydney´s last blog ..The Keep Her Away from Glass Edition =-.
Hee! They’re silly, those people who think that looks like hair.
I’m a little concerned about those turquoise eyes, though…
.-= naomi´s last blog ..in which I can’t think of a clever title =-.
If you look at the side of his face, you can see tabby stripes! They’re black on near-black. 🙂
Please for gods sake leave the models alone – it’s you bloggers that make them fear the front covers…
Mayhem, I thought you already had the talk with mom.. Please set her straight.. Soon.
E.H>
.-= Erotic Horizon´s last blog ..Lena Horne – Godspeed – Thank you =-.
LOL about Mayhem! You have to admit it’s some sexy turquoise eyed cougar.
.-= ErotRomReader Janna´s last blog ..Mondays Hot Couple without a Smutty Scene Or… What Do You Think of Authors Giving Themselves Rates @ Goodreads? =-.
Mmmm… I bet I could write a guy who would MAKE him smile…
Aaaawww…. you’re becoming a nice Mom! Look at that! A black kitty on the cover!
.-= Nicole´s last blog ..Wednesday WiP Parade =-.
Well spotted May! See, there are black kitties a lurkin’!
.-= orannia´s last blog ..This And That =-.
Oh my lord, that long hair cover.
