I can't stop laughing at this picture. Holy fuck is everyone in that picture hilarious. Does that guy have two swords? Does that other dude have a snake around his neck? Is that a nerdier version of Egon?
Yep, I've got two swords. Jason is now a professional snake breeder. Riz (in the center) is a very misguided but lovable Nazi. Mike 2 (on the front right) is a Neo-conservative. Mike 5 (to the left of me), Paul (with the blue lightsaber), Larissa (in the dress), and I were (at that time) basically socialists. The guy who looks like Angry Jesus is coincidentally named Christopher. The middle two in the back row (Big Jon and Midget, I'll let you figure out who is who) are vaguely left Libertarians. Oh, and they're holding a Mosin Nagant.
Funny story, Paul was on a few occasions confused with Larissa (who was my girlfriend at the time). They had very similar hair, expecially when hunched over a keyboard and mouse.
EDIT: Not pictured are Dan (our chief strategist and Heathers-era Christian Slater lookalike), Shan Wu (our proto-dominatrix), Ian (our Japanophilic Jew), Roberto (our Italian Ambassador and my cousin from Agropoli), and our gaggle of cool Chinese bros.

You guys look kind of bad-asses! Also, a lovable Nazi? That is new to me.
I like how you knew enough people named Mike to warrant numbering them.
We had six Mikes at one point. It was crazy.
Also, the Neo-Con is surprisingly liberal, except for his economic views. Big Jon is a farm boy, and Midget is just apathetic. Riz is, strangely, not very racist. Well, he's the most racist guy I personally associate with, but he's nowhere near the level of racism of, say, the Arizona legislature.
It makes for very interesting games of Worms Armageddon and Mafia, especially when Riz and Ian go head-to-head. (Jason and Midget are also Jewish, but Ian is semi-orthodox)
Is it a sign of gender bias that all of the girls in the photos look attractive to me yet most of the guys look like dorks to me? Do the woman on the forum have the opposite view when looking at these photos?
I think a lot of male nerds look a little weird in high school, and don't really "bloom" until college/post-college. Also, a lot of the ladies in these pictures are/were "cute art chicks," with well-defined senses of style.
All of the dudes in that picture look like HUGE, MASSIVE dorks. It's not gender bias, it just is. I mean, Yosho is carrying two swords and trying to look like a badass.
I want to take that picture and make a crime fighting comic book out of it. Complete with the socially awkward but doesn't know she's attractive female groupie. All the men will have so much unwarranted self confidence it's just hilarious though.
Also, fair's fair, I looked like a massive dork in High School. I think just about everyone did. It's a thing. Looking back at it, I just laugh.
Haha, nice. You need to add us all piling into two cars and racing down San Ramon Valley Blvd. to Chipotle, blasting Slayer, hardcore Internet remixes, and (on one very momentus occasion) Mika.

I'm sure they're all lovely people, aside from the Neocons and libertarians who are probably terrible.
