Explain this Photo?

Banjaxed · 08-05-2005, 09:09 AM

I've looked at this photo many times and can never really figure it out. Can anyone explain what damien is doing, where they are and why there seems to be a lightbulb floating in mid air in the foreground?

Damien is posing...

He appears to be standing... leaning with his right hand against a tiled wall... and biting into a bar/pipe that is protruding from said tiled wall...

As for the lightbulb... My guess would be that it seems to be there because it was actually there... most likely put there by someone... possibly out of a sense of artistic creativity...

Does that help any?

hmmm....good question i have always thought that - a strange photo!

cille · 08-05-2005, 05:27 PM

that photo is so weird!

i have brightened it a bit so we can see more of what's going on:

the bulb looks like a kind of cool bathroom decor item.

for some reason lisa and vyv chose to look really sorta kinky in an alarmingly desperate way.

however, what REALLY worries me is: why the heck is damien eating the shower curtain holder???

shower curtain holders, hhhrrrmmmmmmmmmmmmm drewl

wait, what photo i dont see one

muskoxen · 08-05-2005, 07:00 PM

it's just a pose. yo're right, tho, cille, it does look a bit kinky...why damien's biting the pole, rod whateer, ive no clue, but it's just a picure. and i don't believe the bulb is floating, i think it's attached to the wire which is around the pole. i dunno if it works, though...and again, i have no idea why damien is biting the pole.

it's a mystery.

oh thats easy damien is performing oral pole sex, jaysus have ya never tried it?

cprolsen · 08-06-2005, 09:29 PM

This photo is easy to explain... Damien wasn't sure if the cd was going to do so well, so during the promoting of the cd and taking this photo he decided he wanted a back up career. He decided then and ther ein the photo shoot that he wanted to beat part of a carnival attaction as the "Man who could chew thew anything"....so the moral is...always have a back up career.

The lightbulb can be explained by just a freak chance falling from the ceiling and being captured on the photo.

......truthfully I have no clue why he is chewing the pipe lol.

mestonf · 08-06-2005, 09:39 PM

well i have to say, that is the best explanation yet!!

Does anyone know the date of this photograph and who took it? Was it Robbie Fry?

hollowrose · 08-08-2005, 12:28 AM

it says robbie fry underneath the picture

mestonf · 08-08-2005, 06:12 PM

silly me!

blackrose88 · 08-08-2005, 06:48 PM

you can see the thing holding the lightbulb and damien has his mouth on a part of it.. maybe he's holding some kind of electricity with the hand that doesnt show in the picture
trying to make the lightbulb shine

the girls just think its sexy.. thats why they look like that

muskoxen · 08-08-2005, 09:40 PM

i think its sexy. it gets me off....ooh, pole-chewers, oh yeah, baby...hahaha.

mestonf · 08-08-2005, 10:10 PM

yeah it does look like one of those wet shower photos

yeah i was thinking that, but then the perspective in the picture seems to be wrong, that's really why it's confusing.

matheusdibo · 08-25-2005, 08:20 PM

is it just me or is this a GIGANTIC bulb? and how can a so fragile thread hold it?
hahaha, that's the best pic ever

Hannah650 · 08-25-2005, 08:31 PM
