“Mystery man smokes weed” Lame Photo of the Day 11-17-09

I browse through all sorts of pictures everyday looking for something to inspire me to want to write a post and as you can probably tell from entries like “The Saturdays’ Frankie Sandford wears a Peek-a-Booty dress” and “Benicio Del Toro is ‘Trucker Chic’” I don’t set the bar very high. What you probably can’t tell is that there are hundreds of billions of images that I see that don’t come anywhere close to making the cut. There are obscure “celebrities” getting coffee, events with people in attendance simply labeled as “guest” because no one knows who they are and of course people arriving at and leaving airports.

So, in an effort to make my browsing duties more bearable I’ve decided to occasionally pick out the worst of the worst, the lamest of the lame and the obscurest of the obscure pictures that for whatever reason these celebrity photo services thought interesting enough to put in front of my face. Sometimes it will be just one photo, other times it will be an entire set of pixel-wasting images for your viewing indifference.

The inaugural “Lame Photo of the Day” is a real meaningless dandy! It was one of those instances where the description of the set of photos had me thinking to myself, “There must be something more to this that they’re not telling me,” so of course I clicked on it. I was wrong. Here is how this set of two pictures was described by Flynet:

Lame Photo of the Day November 17, 2009

WOW! Ummmm, wait…what? Is that an actor? A crew member? Another paparazzo? How do they know it’s weed? Is there an answer to any of these questions that would make this photo interesting? Well, I suppose if it were Barack Obama or Sarah Palin I would understand…

Usually, once you get to the images more information is provided including names, dates, etc. Here is the detailed info on these images:

11-17-09 Los Angeles, CA Exclusive: Unknown man smoking weed on the set of ‘Desperate Housewives’ in Los Angeles.

I sorta feel bad because I am patient zero for the time-wasting virus of looking at these two pictures, but I also feel less alone in my suffering and that feels good. My hopes are that this post made your work day 4 minutes shorter.
