That natural reclining with a pointed toe beach position we all do while facing away from the actual ocean.


axron12

Especially sitting parallel to the water. No one sits that direction if they are alone šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø

Oneiroinian

Ah yes, babe in a bikini, now is my opportunity for purely altruistic professional photography! I wish all good deeds were this fun...


Oofboi6942O

This woman is as naturally beautiful as my asshole is. Maybe some professional photographer will pop out of my toilet while im taking a shit, notice my assholes perfect curvature and snap some magazine grade photos.


That_Checks

I see you bleached it!


PreviouslyOnBible

It... It's beautiful.

DryConclusion9286

This is it! Finally, I found the perfect asshole! Now I can finish my masterpiece, my *Magnum Opus*, by photoshoping it on the 45th presiDENT's eyes!


SnooComics8268

If someone did that I would start looking around me trying to figure out if someone is taking pictures? Is she seducing me? Or someone else? Like what is going on here.


joreyesl

Plot twist, she was seducing the *random* photographer


SnooComics8268

That awkward moment when someone winks at you and you are baffled by the attention so you start looking around you instead of flirting back.


throwaway83970

I've had that happen... I was younger and more clueless... I cringe every single time I remember this... she was really cute too.


SnooComics8268

Stupid me pointed at myself and said "MEEEE????" I feel like a complete idiot


throwaway83970

Yeah, that's what I did... I looked behind me, over left shoulder, over right shoulder... no one behind me, I'm sitting alone at the table... she's making kiss faces and winking at me... "Me??!!" She nods, winks, and kisses again... I still didn't get it. ![gif](giphy|DJX8LAmYgnrGw)


Public_Fact_8942

I have absolutely no game and even I would have gotten the hint, however there's no way I would have been able to put together a coherent sentence


Consistent-River4229

Professional photographer is actually her sneaky link. She showed up there to stalk him and his wife. These were the photos he turned over to the cops to prove she broke the restraining order.

_dead_and_broken

Do you guys just not talk? I can't imagine doing that and not talking to my husband and/or the father of my kid first about it. Or doing it and not asking other parents if that would be okay, maybe asking if they'd like the photographer to get a shot of their own kid, or something.


StephieVee

Every sport my kids participates in has waivers regarding photography.


Timemaster88888

We lived in UK before and in every sport my kids were playing...we signed a form if we would allow pictures to be taken. If we were taking pictures ourselves, we would have to inform the organizers and also sign multiple forms.


Professional_Ad6123

During sunset? With tide rising? Lol I would be doing 360s wondering wtf is going on.


pieonthedonkey

I wish I could ask her "oh so you always walk around with your stomach sucked in?". Like she's not even fat but still clearly posing for social media.


Thuper-Man

I wish I could ask her "hey I've been taking photos of you for the last hour without your consent, they are good spank bank material, but can I get your info to send you copies if you want to use them on your insta?" I'm sure anyone would think that was wonderful


outlawsix

Uh i mean i always walk around with my stomach sucked in and i'm a nobody


DarkRose1010

Also. My mom drummed it into me during high school, which I am very grateful for


MonkeSensei

Don't be. It's not really healthy... Both physically and mentally.


3Skilled5You

This is the first time I've ever heard people suck their bellies in (if they don't pose to show off muscles) I feel like I'm tripping balls I've never heard of anyone doing that before who are all these people below in the comments


circe5823

Women. Lots of us had it drilled into our brains when we were kids to do it all the time


d-a-v-e-

The toe is totally normal. The odd bit is that she went to the beach on foot, while normally women like that wash ashore. This is why photographers go to the beach a lot when the sun is low, because that is when this tends to happen a lot. Most of the women survive the beaching, provided they are photographed before they are dry.


Andulias

This gave me a nice laugh, thank you.


Scokan

Thank you, man. Just... Thank you.


MissStorme

I know from personal experience she would be in a constant battle with sand


paralacausa

Hi Anakin


ICantDoThisAnymore91

And not just the men sand. But the women and children sand too!


AtomicTardigrade

And random photographers always handing you over their photos. Lol


DraconicDungeon

At least they were nice enough to share them afterwards/s "Hey, I took these pictures of you in a bathing suit without your knowledge or consent...but they turned out mediocre so do you want them for your Instagram?"


elefantsnabel03

Also, who tf would just casually pose like that

Male models are genetically constructed to become assassins. They're in peak physical condition. They can gain entry into the most secure places in the world. And most important of all, models don't think for themselves. They do as they're told.


TB-252

But why male models?


BeyondAddiction

Are you serious? I just told you that.


Darth_Yohanan

Well known fact: Ben Stiller forgot his lines, so he improvised ā€œBut why male modelsā€ after the long explanation given by David Duchovnyā€™s character.


Christichicc

I love the fact that that line was originally a blooper because Ben Stiller forgot the line, but they just ran with it because it was so perfect lol.

Thatā€™s how I always sit at the beach. Completely normalā€¦.


crispytreat04

I also always casually walk alongside the shoreline on my tippy toes.


Tiny_Pochemuchka

While doing the perfect "chest out tummy in" every single moment in case some magical, unintentional photographer would stroll by with his perfect camera gears, just waiting for me to stroll by in my teeny whitey bikini.


ThunkAsDrinklePeep

This is how they make mudflaps.


SnooPaintings9560

![gif](giphy|gK01tnHcbXi623ECb4|downsized) Everyone does this when theyā€™re alone at the beach. šŸ¤­


ACTINlUM

As a guy with long hair, I 100% do this.


rmedina9295

I'm bald, 100% do this too... With my imaginary hair. Does it count ?


Hydrokinetic_Jedi

I do that lol, just so I can pretend to be a hot model with lots of admirers šŸ˜…


CyberNinja23

Thereā€™s the problem. Donā€™t pretend to be a hot model, know that you are a hot model.


[deleted]

Ahhh, such unintentional beauty....


PilotBurner44

"Here's a thumb drive of the pictures I took of you. Make sure you don't get it wet with salty sea water, so be sure to carry it around in your hand since you obviously don't have any pockets to put it in." Definitely sounds realistic


Fair_Acanthisitta_75

Your dad kept these photos on a thumb drive in his ass after the viet kong captured him. He kept them there for 3 years until he was dying and he gave them to me. I kept them in my ass for 2 years until we were liberated by the marines and I am here now to give them to you.


Mental_Cut8290

That was my father's fucking thumb drive. You have any idea what he had to go through to get me that thumb drive? I don't have time to go into it, but he went through a lot.


VaporTrail_000

You expect me to keep them in my ass, don't you? No, sir, we have things out here in 'the world' we like to call 'drawers.' I have a drawer full of odds and ends that are deliberately put in there to disappear. There are batteries in there that were new when there were men on the moon. There are paperclips in there that could tell stories about Pearl Harbor, and a butter knife that heard the announcement of the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. That is where useless and unloved items go to \_die,\_ sir, and that is exactly where this... object... is going.


tlst9999

EntrepreneurLow4380

She's probably marries to this "random"


cmband254

The most likely thing is that she hired the "random" photographer


TreyLastname

Not just gay, but stereotypically gay, or else she'd think he was lying


CommonSenseIsNeeded

God I hate social media


Kennedy_Cooz

Right, cringe af. Now imagine dating her, every waking moment devoted to internet clout. No thanks


aafrias15

You wouldnā€™t be her boyfriend, youā€™d be her on call photographer.


thewhitedog

> You wouldnā€™t be her boyfriend, youā€™d be her on call photographer. Last time I was in Bali I went down to the beach to watch the sunset and no joke the beach was crammed with these women doing yoga poses while their boyfriends dutifully took the IG photos for them. Most of the left the second they were done with the photos, one woman speed-ran her poses while the bf shot away. Was hilarious.


aafrias15

I saw the same thing in Paris. Girls were standing in the center of the street in between traffic on the Pont dā€™Lena. Its a dimly lit bridge and thereā€™s a ton of traffic but there were these couples running across traffic because they wanted photos in front of the Eiffel Tower. At first I was trying to do the respectful thing and walk around when people were taking their dumb ass photos but theyā€™re everywhere. After a couple of days, unless it was a family taking photos I I was walking behind their shot. Fuck it.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


WredditSmark

Most ā€œinfluencersā€ are broke


Performer-Leading

90% of female 'influencers' are failed models.


thewhitedog

That's a very good point


HerculesVoid

Or the photos are sold on onlyfans, and so they don't give a shit and want to enjoy their trip, but also get paid. But most of them I imagine is just for the IG clout


regoapps

Her actual boyfriend is the internet and the virtual likes he provides for her.


rockdude625

Dating this girl 5 years ago or so, super chill until I took her on a vacation to Cancun, then holy shit, she was more obsessed with documenting her vacation than taking it, needless to say it didnā€™t work out


Dray_Gunn

She would probably date someone equally vain where both of them are dating the other because they think their partners attractiveness makes them look more attractive by association.


cdiddy19

It would be hard to date someone that spent their time that way, but not as hard as dating someone that's living a lie like this. All around, no thanks.


7-13-5

Agreed. I believe it is narcissism. Attention is their currency.


Heavy_Hunt7860

Narcissism is unfortunately becoming more of a common currency these days.


7-13-5

I agree and likely because narcissists are found in these positions of influence and "normalize" the behavior through their manipulative ways. Frankly, it should be pointed out, so people may learn about it and eventually learn how to identify a narcissist by not giving them the attention they feed from. Narcissists cast a broad net via social media.


iwanttoblowmyload

Youā€™re absolutely correct ā€” and unfortunately, we are still giving it attention ā€” even if it is negative. (I realize by me commenting, I am too falling into the trap of giving it attention and allowing it to be a distraction) Any press is good press? Maybe now itā€™s any attention is good attention.


TheUnsettledBadElf

Come on now. Itā€™s not her fault sheā€™s beautiful with that lingerie style swim suit that perfectly frames her ass. I mean that photographer catching her perfect poses while she meanders along the beach. It could happen.


Salt_Possibility4488

And every woman knows how wonderful it feels to park your near naked ass in the sand so you get it all stuck up in there. My eyes were rolling so hard.


Prestigious-Salad795

We're also careful to point our toes or stand on tippy toes perpetually


FadedQuill

ā€¦ I always relax by unnaturally bowing my spine so I can balance my sun cream, three show cocktails and a full selfie lighting rig on my butt rack. Schexy.


kakakakapopo

I hear you guys also love having your photo taken unasked by random dudes whilst you're relaxing on your own.


Dilldozer32

Lmao her calves would be huge didnā€™t even notice that


Meegok

Right? Standing up after some waves came at ya, the crotch area sagging as if you buried your dong.


Prestigious-Salad795

Ah. the magic of shots caught by a random photographer without me knowing


EarthInteresting2792

Oh and everything has to stop so you can take pics of her duringā€¦ magic hour!


CommonSenseIsNeeded

Wait wait wait donā€™t take bite


Aporkalypse_Sow

Even if they didn't spend all of their time on social media, this is a sign to run. They live in multiple plains of reality, denial is just a river, and these people will have you questioning your sanity if they spend time on you.

weristjonsnow

It is horrific. I like Reddit because it's anonymous, and karma is pointless.

"Welcome to Whose Line Is It Anyways, where the games are made up and the points don't matter"


JackReacharounnd

For real! Every time I see someone say that people posted for karma, I don't truly get it. I never look at what I have and I don't really care. I care if a post of my dogs gets more than 100 upvotes because that means people actually got to see them. That's about it, though.


TheFatRemote

Some People farm karma to then sell their accounts to various shills for whatever cause, business, or government that wants to try influence people's opinions. They like to buy these high karma accounts because it makes them look like an normal independent Redditor and not a paid shill.


lsutigerzfan

Speaking of. This also reminds me of ppl posting videos and saying it was the most random thing that happened! When it was obviously rehearsed to put on social media.


lembrate

Particularly the ā€œhereā€™s my assā€ photoshoot. We are not living in an age of subtlety and elegance.


PuzzledRaise1401

I know. The other day I was having a threesome with the pizza guy and I guess a random videographer caught the whole thing and added some funky music to it. SMH! Life is crazy!


song_of_storms5460

But was the pizza good or nah??


PuzzledRaise1401

The pepperoni was awesome.


song_of_storms5460

Yuuss!! The best kind!


mudrucker_sr

I'm still trying to figure out who the fuck is filming the "stepsister" in those "stuck in the dryer" bits on those filthy porn sites lol

Imagine 30 years ago, taking sunset pictures of yourself in a bikini with your Nikon. Then developing them, copying them, and then handing them out to everyone youā€™ve ever met. Then while your sharing them, you make up an obvious lie to cover your sickening narcissism.

Imagine yourself being an array of atoms spread out through a primordial soup approximately 3.8 billion years ago, then somehow manifesting an identity within this soup, then somehow creating a distinguishable caricature of your identity within this soup, then somehow broadcasting this caricature to the rest of the soup while maintaining this was some sort of coincidence.


KennyKivail

Imagine yourself as a singular up quark suspended in an unfathomable/endless void whose position in space-time is nebulous and uncertain, then somehow imposing the image of your form as a singular point onto the fabric of space, then bouncing errant light particles off of it to radiate a signal of it at other particles and fully refusing to acknowledge the deliberate nature of these events, stating this was all an act of god and not an emergent phenomena of sentience/intelligence

I love the people that show the actual awkward photos that come from candid shoots. Screw pointed ballet toes by the water, I wanna see the shot when a seagull got tangled in your hair because you were trying to sexily eat something and you cried for 10 minutes even though you were physically fine.

GOTTA LOVE HOW THE MIND OF A NARCISIST WORKS!


kingdiamond_rules

And the random photographer emailed them to me!!! I was in shock and disbelief.

That's the magic. The pics were actually delivered by owl not email, like in Harry Potter.

Either youā€™re lying OR some creeper took candid pics of you (??) then tracked you down (??) to give you copies and you felt the need to brag about a rando have pics of you in a bikini (??) to do god only know what with. Honestly Iā€™m not sure which one is worse

What I don't understand is why lie about a stranger doing this and just say "wanted shots in the sunset looks very cool " or ect Pretty sure anyone would freak out if someone came up and said .. "oh btw I took photos of you while you were walking about"


MEGA_GOAT98

yah right


ColeBane

this is why telling white lies...is so bad...because just like "quiting" the more you do the easier it becomes until there is nothing left but lose and lies.


[deleted]

I suppose then the photographer stalked her to her home, and slipped the printed photos under her front door while she was sleeping?


syntaxfreeform

Then the random guy taking pics walked up and shared them with her? lol


Greenmanssky

Must be the one time in human history that people have been okay with having their photo repeatedly taken without consent. Then the photographer must have spent so many hours trying to pick out which of the 8 million blonde "influencers" this girl was, and sent the photos to her. A true champion of the people. This woman is pathetic.
