Joe’s a Jowling Jowler
You're walking around thinking you're all cool because you're in the loop on all the fucked up shit in the world, then suddenly someone walks up and jowls right in your face. That's what happened to me a couple of weeks ago at the Knitting Factory gig.
After our set, I was mingling with friends. My old buddy Joe (my college roomate) walked up to Momo and asked her to take a picture of him. As she framed up the shot, he started shaking his head violently. The flash went off and this was the result (the pic on the left).
Joe explained that it's a goofy trick called "jowling". There's even a website devoted to it - jowlers.com. Here's how it works: grab a camera, make sure the flash is on, aim the camera at your face, loosen up your lips and shake your head side to side, then take the pic.
Don't say I never taught you anything.

Randi:
Try it. It’s fun!
I tried it last night and the result was insane. Maybe I’ll post the pic (if I’m not feeling lazy later).

What’s up with your trackbacks man!!??
I had to share this one. hilarious!
I’d do one but I don’t think my camera will take a pic without it being a blurry.
I’ll try anyway. After a few beer.

MacBros:
Trackbacks always get caught in the Askimet filter. I’ve rescued yours.
You should really try it. As long as the flash is on and the camera isn’t too far from your face, it’ll come out crystal clear.

I take horrible pics as it is, so maybe I should just start doing this and blame it all on the jowling.

ME- “Check out these hot pics from that thing earlier.”
THEM- “What’s with this…shit…ass…drunk face right here?”
ME- “I must a’ been jowlin’ dude, its cool.”

JJ:
In that first pic you remind me of Gary Busey.
My jowling attempts have come out pretty outstanding as well.
