Today, I sneezed while my ID photo was being taken. I look like a total moron in it. The photographer refused to retake the photo because I "clearly" faked the sneeze just to be funny. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I tried to take a cute selfie with my dog. Right as I hit the button, he sneezed on my face. Now I have an unexpected "glamour shot" that captures him mid-sneeze and me looking horrified, and I'm somehow still tempted to post it. FML
Today, I received my employee ID, which I have to wear at all times at my new job. The only problem is that in my photo, I look like a donkey having a seizure. Customers keep snickering at it, and my boss thinks I posed like that deliberately. FML
Today, I sneezed so hard, I farted. During my vaccine appointment. I hate hayfever. FML
Today, I sneezed so hard during a meeting that my glasses flew off and hit my boss in the face. Now everyone keeps jokingly ducking every time I look their way. FML
Today, I came to school really sick because I had to take an important exam. After I finally finished, I accidentally sneezed on my answer sheet right before turning it in. The teacher refused to take it. FML
Today, I sneezed so hard I fell down the stairs. FML
Today, I got sneezed on by a fully grown man. FML
Today, I sneezed after watching a commercial involving dust. FML
Today, I sneezed so bad in public that I dropped my coffee, kicked it while trying to catch it, and watched it slide dramatically across the floor into someone’s shoe. They gasped like I'd committed a crime. I just whispered, “Sorry” and fled. FML
Today, I sneezed. My boyfriend told me to shut up. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

What I wanna know is... if you're in a situation where you have to present your ID, do you have to make a sneezing face to be recognizable?

Sounds like a funny story, but does he not understand that people's ID photos need to be recognizable?

I feel like snot coming out of your nose should be enough to convince a person that a sneeze was real

@2 I'm sure it would, but there may not have been any snot coming out of her nose.

If you think YOUR ID picture is bad, you should see Dopey's and Sleepy's. - Doc

If your face chased so much as to render you unrecognizable, you must retake it. Otherwise, I do not believe the photographer, and I use the term lightly, has a right to deny you a second chance at your picture.

"Lose" your ID.

they'll give you a copy of it with the same picture so that would not work

So then you pay money to have an identical one issued to you?

I thought you could retake your picture

They save the ID pictures in the US? Wow, makes me glad I don't live there. (In Germany you can bring a new picture if you lose your ID, they don't save them anywhere and I thought that was "normal")

yet another reason Germany is the place to be.

I'm pretty sure they can't do that, you have to be able to see your face for proper authentication

no they can lol

That's what I thought. I don't know about other states, but in mine everyone is required to take off all hats and glasses as to not obstruct/ distort the face at all. I'd think a sneeze face would count as some sort of distortion.

You can usually have them retake an id photo. The person was just being a tool....
