Got long hair? Got shades? It's... the Cousin It picture thread!
I make an excellent Cousin It, but all the pictures came out awful, especially the ones with clip-on shades. Trust me that my hair doesn't usually look this bad; the things I'll do to try to get a Cousin It picture:

Yeah, I know; the first Lounge pic thread ever to go straight to the archives with no replies at all. I'm relaxed about it.:)

4. When I had really long hair, I was the best Cousin It ever.
Right now, this is the best I got. :shrug:

6. Jeez, how long was it before?
Another fine contender. I'll have to satisfy myself with winning the "love child of John Lennon and Johnny Ramone" division.:)

8. LOL! My mother used to call me Cousin It when she would help
me fix my hair when I was ten or eleven. :rofl: My hair was long and thick, and she'd brush it over and put glasses on me.... I thought it was funny as hell... :spray: It looked exactly like Cousin It too (I peeked through the curtain of hair). :P

Great pic, btw!!!

9. My best friend growing up had a Cousin It.
She lived next door to him and was his double cousin--mother's brother, father's sister. She was a year behind us and in Jr. High she forgot her purse, so his mom made him carry it school to give it to her. From then on she was known to both of us as Cousin It. In high school I managed to get the combination to his locker and one day before school I opened it and doused paper towels with my younger sister's perfume, a ghastly smelling concoction called Taboo. My friend figured Cousin It had done it so he sprayed her with deer scent. About 15 years later I confessed that I had done it and he said he had figured I had, but it was more fun getting revenge on Cousin It.

10. OMFG... my grandmother had a friend who wore Taboo...
:rofl: It was definitely taboo. It smelled like bug repellent and toilet cleaner combined. :P

That's a hilarious story! :spray:

11. I guess there are people who like it,
as it is still being sold.
