Oh, stereotypes, you conundrums, you...
Every now and then, I see these little moments that I just have to capture. They often have nothing to do with the reason I have my camera out and poised. They're just THERE, and I can't help myself.

This particular moment reminded me of an old episode of Daria, where everyone's favorite cartoon heroine helps the uber-popular cheerleader understand three-point perspective for art class by drawing her a picture of the mall.

The part of the episode that drives my above comparison home doesn't happen until 4 minutes and 16 seconds into the YouTube video I've linked to below, so here's the dialogue in case you're, you know, busy or something.
Brittany: Hey! Thanks for helping me out in art.
Daria: No problem.
Brittany: Maybe I could help you out in something.
Daria: Well, you could show me how to twirl hair around my little finger and look vacant.
Brittany: (twirls hair and looks vacant) I don't know if that's something you can teach.

Oh my god, that photo is awesome. Seriously, I think it's the best representation of a stereotypical high school cheerleader that I have ever seen captured on film.
Hee. Glad you like it.
I keep a little folder on my laptop called "Life in Stepford." It's mostly a record of moments like this one, including a girl who got a nose job just for the prom. Unfortunately, her doctor's timing was off, and there she is at the pre-prom event with her rhinoplasty bandages.
Someday we will hang out IN PERSON, and I'll show you all of them. It's definitely bitchy, but so fun.
