Taking a picture with a phone through a mirror? Why? To show off the phone? Or hide your chin behind the phone? Or to put the scar on your left cheek onto your right? Why?!?

Ben Brown is partial to curlyheads.

Matt uses a blow dryer?

Looks like the tousle won the tussle.

If hot Guys with iPhones action is what you want (and really, why wouldn’t you?), check my curated version.

Also, in all seriousness that photo does not look like Matt Haughey.

That picture has been cropped. If you open it in Photoshop and check the original thumbnail, you get the full monty.

Matt, Pips says that you kind of look like michael Phelps. I can see it. Unlike him, I don't think you should be required to swim with your medals on.

Is that just how you envisioned the Peemster, or am I missing something here?

I have to say, I never expected to see Matt naked.

Now I have.

@joeclark - I take umbrage at your implication that my new site has anything to do with vanity. Literally anyone will tell you that I am the most humble person on the internet.

ps. what's up metatalk? it's been 7 years since I got a mention in these hallowed halls.

I'm personally claiming one of the greying sprouts front and center.

And hello, benbrown! "7 years since I got a mention in these hallowed halls"? Well, maybe if you told us about what you're up to (have you seen the new Projects page)? In fact the last time you poked your head in around here was 2004 when you were having trouble from some asshole named Glenn Beck. Well, you sure took care of him, made sure he wasn't able to cause anybody else any grief...

Wow! Silver threads and he is only in his 30s. By the time he hits 40, will he have a receding hairline edging toward the bald spot under his comb over?

The people with mathowie's hair went in one direction, but another group had mathowie's shoe and they formed their own center of worship, similar to Metafilter, but with less emphasis on hair.

I support this idea. I also present my paypal details so you can all pay me not to post to it...

Perhaps it's just a coincidence, but I was thinking of things I hope I never see.

I guess I have one less now.
posted by tommasz at 6:14 AM on July 31, 2009

This is very disappointing, but I'm going to keep imagining mathowie as a pre-diet Seth Rogen living in an Airstream trailer on concrete blocks (surrounded by tall grass and weeds) on his mother's farm in Iowa. No semi-professional bicycling or anything.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who gets out the shower, towels their hair to mad scientist proportions and then takes a photo.

Though I don't have the guts to make them public. Kudos for that, Matt.

Har. That really is Michael Stipe. The mystery is sort of interesting. I guess. If you're as bored at work as I am & if nobody cares if you look at erect penises doing what erect penises do.

Note: if your work frowns on you looking at websites that have have pictures of two or more dudes engaged in hot man-on-man (on man) action, do us all a favor & avoid clicking any of the links above.

Thanks Item, I showed those photos to the public librarian (a friend of mine) at the library I was at and it upped my cachet +3.

Eyes akimbo like that, Matt must see the front page as containing nothing but double posts.

If you do take naked pictures of yourself with funny hair, please use the metafilteruser tag at Flickr.

Incidentally, I am visiting Portland *right now* and if I run into Sylar's lost twin brother, I have totally planned, in advance, what I will say should this happen. I also have a line saved in case I run into The Dooce in Salt Lake.
