So I know someone who has a profile picture that makes them look like the ugliest person alive. In person they're obviously furthest thing from ugly, so quite literally the picture doesn't do them justice. How do I suggest to this person to change their picture without coming off like a douchebag?


There are a lot of what if's in life Donny. What if I hit you really hard in the face, knocked yo shit to the back of yo skull? What if I....had you girl gargle my nuts? The fact remains, you are a fuckin mutant.

I would say in my own words "You have a great personality, but you should change your picture. I'm not saying your ugly at all, I just think one of your other pictures is a ton cooler."

Ha, I thought you were talking about me until I got to "furthest thing from ugly". Laughing

Is it someone you're friends with? If so, I would just be blunt about it. Then again, I'm an asshole, so maybe my advice isn't too great to follow.

i agree w/spehornoob. if its a friend, just say, this pic is way better.

if its someone youre not that close too yet, then obviously tact would help.

just say, 'hey, thats a nice pic, but i believe this other one is waaay better'

If it's your friend, especially if it's a guy, just tell them they picked a bad picture to use.

You say this, "I know someone who has a profile picture that makes them look like the ugliest person alive. In person they're obviously furthest thing from ugly, so quite literally the picture doesn't do them justice."

They either relate to it, or they are fucktarded.

I think he's talking about Murdar Machene.

If you can't be tactless in front of your friends, who can you be tactless in front of?

If it's a friend, just be blunt. If it's not, why does it matter to you that their picture looks like crap?

Come to think of it, why does that matter to you even if they're a friend?

Obviously because it is embarrassing to be associated with people that don't meet your aesthetic standards.

Tell her she looks stupid and to take a full body pic.
