A friend and I are thinking of getting our pictures taken with the Easter bunny while wearing overalls and a propeller hat. my sister says it’ll be immature and that if I were to show a girl they would immediately be turned off.
We feel it’ll be funny and a good ice breaker with girls or anyone else for that matter. But now I’m kinda questioning it.
You only need to find one girl. Show this picture around, and most of them will skip out. Then you can focus on the ones that get your sense of humor.
Then you only have to filter for the ones that don’t mind that you have a tiny dick.
Jesus Christ, stop asking people on the internet for their dumbass opinions on things and just do your shit.
Think something’s funny? Go and do it. Show it to your friends. If they have the same sense of humor, they’ll laugh. Show it to some girls, they’ll laugh if they’re into your shit. That’s how it works.
Socialization is rough, bro. It doesn’t always work out. You’ve got to try shit. Sometimes you get rejected, sometimes it’s a hit. That’s just how it flows. Experience real life, my man. Get off your phone and touch grass.
These communities are an absolute fucking joke. Moderation is non-existent, people are fucking assholes, and fhe content is grade F garbage shitposts.
Immature? No. Fucking stupid? Totally. I’m a man and if a friend approached me with that idea, I’d be “fuck yeah, let’s do it”
The picture itself will obviously pique anyone’s curiosity, so I hope you have a better story behind it than “Oh, I just wanted an icebreaker”, or that the taking of the picture generates a good story! 😆
You and your friend seem to not take yourselves too serious, which is a nice trait.
Your sister seems a bit too uptight.
The least sexy thing in your post is how miserable your sister seems to be.
Humor is sexy. If a woman won’t date you because you took that photo as a joke, you’re dodging a bullet.
Do it
a few points: 1) don’t let your sister talk you out of fun. 2) your sister knows less about fashion than david alan grier. 3) the most immature thing you can do is worry about whether something is immature. 4) just do what you want. have fun.
The Guardian does an occasional feature called Flashback, where a celebrity recreates a childhood photo. It’s a bit of fun! You have my permission to go right ahead. A sense of humour is very attractive.
Don’t do it if you’re trying to date your sister.
The world needs more silliness and whimsy. Don’t be afraid to be cringe, you will be free.
You also have an obligation to share the image when you take it.
Don’t forget to bring giant lollipops and paint freckles on your faces!
i got a slide whistle and kazoo if you need one
If a woman i wanted to date didn’t find me funny when i do goofy shit, then she would quickly become a woman i dont want to date.
I can be immature without that being my whole personality. I am mature when it’s appropriate and immature when it’s appropriate.
Just be yourself. You dont want to lock it all away to be in a relationship with someone who can’t laugh at a well-timed fart.
Do it. Who cares what girls think! But if you’re trying to attract one then maybe wait a bit before showing her the dumb shit you like doing with your mates.
More immature than asking strangers for their opinion?
Will it be funny you think? Do it.
What kind of girl do you want to attract anyway? Do you want a full l girl that thinks that kind of stuff is funny or do you want a girl that finds it immature?
Immature or not, that’s your sense of humor. If a woman has an issue with the picture, there’s a decent chance you won’t get along anyway, so in that way it would actually be a good compatibility litmus test.
Do it. Don’t show a girl. Keep it for your kids before they turn 10. After 10 they don’t care shit about you. But before 10 you’re hilarious.
if I were to show a girl they would immediately be turned off.
I wouldn’t use the photo as your opening gambit, but in an album of similar photos it’s a positive, not a negative.
your sister is immediately correct
Unless you’re causing harm, what others might think is rarely a good enough reason not to do something you genuinely want to do.
+1 for doing it. Have fun!
our pictures taken with the Easter bunny while wearing overalls and a propeller hat. my sister says it’ll be immature
Is it a real question?
You have to get older, but you don’t have to grow up. Do the fun shit in life that hurts nobody. This place hasn’t been so that great over the last decade, so you got to find joys in this life.
I’m mid thirties and when the opportunity presents itself, I’ll look a fool for my own and other’s entertainment. Have a laugh, enjoy yourself, don’t negatively affect others with your fun, and don’t worry about what other people think of you.
Yes, it’s 100% immature, which is exactly why you should do it.
Who cares. Do it!
I take immature as a compliment here.
What do you want, a boring picture driven by society expectations, adulthood stress and other people’s pressures. Or a fun picture idea that came from a mind still able to be creative.
It’s immature and you should do it.
Don’t worry about girls, don’t worry about showing it to girls. Go have fun with your friend and make some good memories doing something goofy.
We got our photo taken with the Easter bunny age 18. It’s one of the best pics I’m in.
When you’re 75 you’ll look back at it and grin. Enjoy life

Your sister sounds like a fucking buzzkill, no offense.
