Is it normal to think you look better in the mirror than in pictures?

I tend to take decent photos as long as I am sober. For some reason drunk Kyle has to make a stupid pose every time he sees a camera.

I think pictures are more accurate because they are taken from angles other people see you at. When you look in the mirror, you can only really see yourself from the perspective of the reflected angle. You can never see yourself from behind with one mirror. Although you can with two. :)

I used to love mirror pictures. So it's normal to consider you look better in them. I kind of do too.

I look better in the mirror too.

Normal. I think my hair and outfits look better in a mirror, but they look horrible in a photo. I used to take a pic of myself in the mirror with my camera phone: if it wasn't photo perfect, I wouldn't wear that makeup, hairstyle, or clothes that day. I no longer do this.

Nah; for me it's usually vice-versa

i ALWAYS look fucked up in pictures. i wind up in weird poses or making odd faces that make me look like some sort of misshapen blob-monster (unless i'm taking my own picture, then i can usually get a few good ones).
