Oops, I Ofoto'd again

December 15, 2004 6:50 PM

The great thing about Ofoto and other photo printing sites is that you can instantly put up photos of an event for your friends to see and get prints made. But sometimes you accidentally leave them public. I give you: Lindsay Lohan's Thanksgiving.

This isn't her Ofoto album or an album of her friends. These are photos that have been floating on the net for a week or two. Great idea though. Make Ofoto your mirror network.

Yeah this doesn't look like her at all. Some wise-guy probably found these pictures, thought the one chick looked like Lindsay Lohan, and put them up on ofoto under the "Lindsay Lohan" title.

My question exactly. I did a quick Google search and found out she is an "Actress-turned-singer." That should pretty much tell you everything you need to know.

That FPP link was in an e-mail I received this week as the footnote to a story about some people finding Lohan's wallet on the street in NYC. In said wallet was her California driver's license, an American Express BLACK card, and a rolled up dollar bill that concealed a bag of cocaine.

As I wrote back to the sender, I have no idea how the photo album link relates to the Lindsay-Lohan-is-a-coke-fiend story.

I also don't see her in any of those pictures, but that may be because she's not all made up for the camera or something.

Exactly, ludwig_van. Everyone was like, "Oh, she drinks and smokes pot, see the photos!" But she's waaaaaay to smart to be photographed doing that stuff, if she does it all.

I'm actually glad in an elitist kind of way I had no idea who this person was. Taking advantage of bad habit I have of making superficial, snap judgements, filled with contempt prior to investigation, I deduce she is some no-talent famous for being famous corporate construct being shoved down our throats. Is that right?

Yeah. And there's no marijuana in the pictures. Yeah, that's probably what they're smoking, but I don't see anything incriminating. There aren't even any open containers in those pictures.

And I missed some before, Miss Lohan appears in 5 of the pictures, but still none with smoking and drinking.

Finally, it takes more than second hand smoke to get eyes that glassy.

Photos of young women, including someone who may well be Ms. Lohan, riding in a limo, giggling, drinking beer and Red Bull, and smoking cigars that may or may not have had some of their original filling replaced by marijuana.

Apart from whatever celebrity value might be provided by Ms. Lohan's presence, these look like pretty ordinary party photographs of any group of early-twenty-somethings with free time and cash.

I have, somewhere in my effects, some similar photos of various people smoking cigars in the Lowell House Dining Hall ca. 1985, including me, Andrew Sullivan, and various people who are now college professors, surgeons, and others who might be slightly embarrassed to see goofy photos of themselves made public. If there's any money in this, expect to see these on an intarweb near you.

(Note: the cigars were Cubans that someone [not Andrew Sullivan] brought back from Bermuda or somewhere. Does that add a tiny illicit frisson?)

Lindsay Lohan *can* act. Well. I know because I've seen all her movies with my 6-year old daughter. Just because someone's being packaged as flavour of the month doesn't mean they have no talent. Watch "The Parent Trap" remake, where (she's much younger) she plays twins, one English/one American. She's very good.

May I remark in passing that smoking blunts is nearly the least appealing vehicle for ingesting cannabis of which I can conceive. The idea of sucking up a big lungful of cigar smoke along with the main ingredient, man, that is sick. You kids are crazy. I am interested in the social history of the practice, however, and wonder if it originated as an attempt at camouflage for the public consumption of marijuana. Another thing to look up.

posted by kamylyon at 12:42 AM on December 16, 2004

y2karl, not sure about the history of it, but I can try to explain why someone would do it. The main reason would be that you have more volume in a rolled cigar paper than a 1.5 or 1.25 paper will give you. That's the most obvious advantage.

Secondly, some people actually like the taste. With all the weird flavored cigars (bubblegum, strawberry, I think I saw butterscotch the other day) there's something for the whole family!

I only know who she is from the Freaky Friday remake, and the fact that she's been on the cover of every magazine in the U.S. lately. Her acting in Freaky Friday was just fine; she certainly showed up Jamie Lee Curtis. She's certainly gotten more notice in the adult world because of her looks, but that doesn't make her a bimbo. And I don't think that she's made any effort to secure a reputation that a few pics of her smoking pot with friends is going to damage.

I didn't see Lindsay Lohan in any of those pictures. Being a 24-year-old female, I'm pretty certain I know what she looks like. One or two of the pictures had somebody with a passing resemblance to her, but she wasn't actually in any of them. And if we're supposed to believe she was the photographer...well, that's bullshit, really.

So, um, yeah. I'm with aurigus.

True. Unfortunately, young Ms. Lohan has just turned 18.

That said, she may also be some kind of freaky changling. Witness photo two, definitely her, and then look at how her face is changed, dramatically, in photo 3 (also her, judging by the hair and the same aqua-lettered Kiss t-shirt under the sweater). Also, she is clearly herself, under the influence, in photo 14 but all skewed and odd-looking in photo 15. And is that her in photo 19, in a swanky outfit more suited to the posh party depicted? What the hell is going on with the girl's face from photo to photo?
