Fuckin' hell, you pay that much for school photos?

[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 12 points 7 months ago

I would start a competing business offering them for half

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

The school would just keep charging the same and pocket the difference. The joys of for-profit education and/or underfunded public schools!

You didn't want to even know how much the special Senior Picture Package costs.

If they're anything like my high school, they have a deal with the photographer. They'd photograph basketball games at a reduced rate and in return the students had to use that studio if they wanted to be in the yearbook

For real! Whoever is school photographer has it figured out.

I wonder if OP's kids went to a prestigious private school?

Seems kinda silly to pay so much for school pictures these days. It made more sense before everyone had a digital camera in their pocket, and social media to share pictures on.

Surprised the companies survived.

Not just silly, exploitative as fuck! The parents are pressured into buying the pictures because all the other parents do and the school and/or the company they hired to take the photos are taking advantage of that social pressure to jack up prices 🤬

Isn't that Bob from Twin Peaks, aka ome of the sound guys or camera guys that Lynch found has a nice demon-like look?

[-] wesker 11 points 7 months ago

No, that's my son.

[-] Hemlock@lemm.ee 5 points 7 months ago

Yep. Scared the pants off of many gen x'ers

Elder millenials too. spooky voice I know because I was one of them! OoOooOoo!

Aka a primeval malevolent entity spawned during the Los Alamos nuclear tests who spends his time possessing middle aged men and killing young female sex workers?

Yep.

I'm loving the increase of Twin Peaks posting on Lemmy recently.
