So I have a new one for you. My sister was talking about these 2 sisters who look alike in their photographs but not 'irl'. I had to ask what 'irl' might mean. She said it means 'in real life', she thought I was up on all these new things. Daughter L knew what it meant. I told my sister she caught me by surprise as I expect my brother to talk like that, not her!
Also it is strange to think that you can see a resemblance in two sisters in photos but not in real life don't you think?

Maybe because we can study a photo longer without feeling rude for staring at people? Have a great week! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteHa! A new one for me too!
ReplyDeleteIt is possible to look different in a photo than IRL. Especially if the photo is in monochrome (black and white) and people are in real colour (RC) IRL !!!
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
That is different, I suppose in real life we are never motionless and in photos we are giving a clear frozen perspective, oh my gosh that sounds deep, lol sometimes I even shock myself lol, have a good day!
ReplyDeleteGuess one would have to see these people, *IRL*... And a picture of them, side by side... To really judge. I certainly do not look (to myself) the same, in a photograph... As I do, looking in the mirror, at the same face, which the photograph is taking. ,-)
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhh yessssss.... All those *things,* which they use, in texting. We always used some, in blogging, but now, with texting, they have really blossssssomed! -grin-
But since I don't text, I'm not familiar with all the latest.
Ahhh well, I've lived 81 years, without them. Guess I can continue, just fine. >,-))))))

Something I've not given too much thought to …
ReplyDeleteI'm so out of touch with text talk etc.
All the best Jan
I knew about IRL, but there was a Jeopardy category similar last week, and I thought I could nail it, but only knew one.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know what IRL meant, but it makes sense to me. I didn't think my daughter and I looked, or look, alike until I compared pictures of us at the same age. It was stunning.
ReplyDeleteI knew what that meant online and IRL
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of IRL. So I'm out of touch :)
ReplyDeleteThe only reason I know what "IRL" means is because, when I started dating in 2012, I was using an online dating site. I met a guy and we had an "LDR" (long distance relationship)...he kept saying he couldn't wait to meet me IRL...well, thankfully that didn't work because I met Alex shortly after! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting - when i see photos of my sister i use to think we looked alike but in real life i think we looked different.
ReplyDeletethe photo acts like a mirror and makes it easier to see features and having them reversed helps people to notice similarities :)
