Haha, remember last week when I posted this photo (along with another)?
Well, apparently not a whole lot of people thought it was as insanely awesome and funny as we did. This was evidenced both by the complete lack of likes and interest from my own Facebook friends and the *almost* no comments or traffic on that post.
Haha. Oh well. I had expected people all around the entire world to start taking Dixie Cup Eye photos and have greatly improved, better lives as a result. I expected hundreds. Maybe thousands. Maybe millions of people to send their pictures to me.
I got five.
And these five people are officially the awesomest people in the history of all awesomeness.
We got the classic double-shot from Erica, just like Kelsey and I came up with.
Then we got the monocle shot from Shelby.
Then things really started getting creative. Rachel and her daughter got creative and made some fantastic versions of Dixie Cup Eyes with them.
And then, a couple days ago, Brittney sent me these. Which of course made me immediately aspirate the water I was drinking.
So while it wasn’t a worldwide success. It was a HUGE success in my book. At least for the cool people who thought it was as cool as we did.

I'm glad you posted something to make us take the time and laugh a little at life. It may have made me look silly but it was fun and our whole family had a blast. I think we don't laugh enough as a society anymore and need "challenges" like this more often.
P.S. Brittney totally rocked the "glasses" Love the duck lips with them.
Yes, yes that's me in there. Crazy me. My kids absolutely LOVED seeing mommy be silly. They laughed for a very long time and still say "mommy do that cup eye thing again." Thank you SDL for a riot in our home.
I just don't know where to get dixie cups from here!!!
It made my day! Thanks for posting these Dan! My son got the biggest kick seeing these!
Too cute! Thanks for sharing! I, too, am a little surprised you only received five ... but then again, I'm one of the lame people who didn't respond to your challenge for awesome fun. I probably (lamely) decided it would take too much time and effort and focused on less awesome things instead. I think a big takeaway from this is that more of us might need to take some time for goofiness.
I didn't see the original post, but those are hilarious!
love it and if I would have seen it I would have sent you a pic with dixie cup eyes too....This is great simple awesome fun
Haha, my mother would so be up for this. We used to have contests of who could hole the oddest thing with your eye!
I can't say I saw the original. But thanks so much for the smile! :) now to get crafty with my 2 year old and some cups! :)
HAHA! Awesome :) If only I had dixie cups...
Man.. I agree.. I missed that post. Hmm.. now to get the cups out..
Ha ha ha ha. I love the duck bill!! Ha ha ha!!!
Ummm, I'm on here all the time, and I didn't see the original post!
Dan we need to see pics of you doing duck lips...
Oh, Dan. Love your stuff, but you officially could have done better. :-P
