Shake Yo Face

Happy New Year...?

2010-05-04T16:34:00.001-07:00

Found this one on a friend's facebook! I didn't ask his permission... so hopefully this doesn't present some sort of copyright infringement. ENJOY the first post of 2010 - we got lazy.

Wizard Duel SYF

2009-07-16T21:30:00.000-07:00

After showing up 2 hours early for Harry Potter 6, we decided to have a WIZARD DUEL in the theater to pass the time and IMPRESS EVERYONE AROUND US -- Shake Yo Face Style!!

Who do you think won the duel? Vote in the comments!

Which Harry Potter character would deliver the best SYF?

Some classics return

2009-07-13T04:43:00.000-07:00

Jack and Charles are some of the first SYF-ers on this blog -- from so long ago, Summer 2008. In this gem they are joined by another face shaker, new to the game so not so skilled, but perhaps just as funny

Miss you boys! Lookin goood

Sad that this blog has been inactive? We need YOU! Send in your best SYFs at shakeyofacesite[at]gmail[dot]com

Final score 165-164

2009-05-24T13:39:00.000-07:00

It was one of the most beautiful days of the year, Carleton College Rotblatt 143, and these ladies couldn't help but make their day even better with a bit of shakin'

Warning: shakin yo face is not recommended as a hangover headache cure

Lovely ladies! Thanks for the submission!

Colin Steers of Bravo fame has been featured many times on this blog- and his reign is not over yet.

The world may not have been ready for him yet-- but with those lips and stunna hair swoosh, he's bound to make it big. (I'm not too bad myself)

2009-05-04T12:13:00.000-07:00

At the cool kids of BU prom (wish I coulda been there.. miss you), Kate P and Perrine worked hard to look their hottest-- and then increase it by shaking it hard.

Guys love girls who aren't afraid to look ridiculous for internet fame!

Congrats ladies. Lookin goooooood

Pesach yo face

For the lack of updates, I'll honor you with TWO posts today!

here is a very solid effort from the notorious Jason Ashe

Good lip actions going on. Good shirt going on (from what I've seen of it)

SYF photobombing

2009-05-02T07:46:00.000-07:00

While I'm not sure how effective it is to photobomb a SYF photo by shaking it in the background, I recommend this method if your friends are trying to look "cute" or "sexy." Just hop in back and shake it

Props to James for this valiant effort

2009-04-09T21:51:00.000-07:00

I pick favorites -- and my favorite kind of shake yo face is the GROUP SHOT!

Check out my soccer team rockin it after practice

Just got punched

Good lips here

Great work team! Yall kick ass on the field, and off. LOOOVE YOU

OH WOW

2009-04-06T12:24:00.000-07:00

Nice bow tie!

Nice face!

("pas bon" -joel. i think it is very bon!"

WORK ON IT

2009-04-04T15:14:00.000-07:00

My parents need to work harder on their face shakin... maybe being embarrassed on the internet will give them incentive..

You guys do look pretty beautiful... just stretch out your face skin every morning when you wake up and you'll be pros like your daughters in no time

Send in yours! shakeyofacesite [at] gmail [dot] com

Nolan O'Dyin!

2009-04-02T09:58:00.000-07:00

Another Minneapolis submission -- Minnesota rules SYF right now

This second one truly is a gem-- I love to see multiple eye sizes in one photo. Show me dem teeth (the bones of your mouth)

Thanks Nolan! More to come from this set, including a SYF bomb from Sam Bob... that's a teaser... just get psyched!

How the elephant got its trunk

2009-04-02T09:42:00.000-07:00

Nice work, Pete! Soon you'll be able to pick objects up off the ground without bending over.

BEAUTIFUL!

Colby + Scott

2009-04-01T15:42:00.000-07:00

THIS IS NOT AN APRIL FOOLS PRANK

THIS IS REAL

BUT HOW COULD IT BE?

Who knew that noses could do that?

A human face

We don't play jokes at Shake Yo Face. We are all serious, all the time.
Thanks to Colby (top) and Scott (bottom) for those pix!

Photobombed SYF gets extra pts

2009-03-31T08:44:00.000-07:00

Nolan from Minneapolis looks great here... he might be cute in real life but I'll never know!

He gets extra points, however, for the wonderful face on the left side of the photo... nice work, Nolan! You've brought true joy to my morning

You think you know your friends...

2009-03-30T06:37:00.000-07:00

But sometimes they'll surprise you. Who knew that James could make this face?

BUT DAMN !!!

This amazing group of submissions are from the Looney Tunes, an a capella group from Haverford College in PA. There's enough of em to soak em up for days, and some pretty hilarious moments

ANNE (a bit of tongue)

ANDREW

ALYSSA
not sure if this is a SYF... but it is hilarious nonetheless

Stay tuned (LOL) all week for more fantastic SYFs from this group

Thank you tunes! You should record a song for SYF sometime! Or even take a GROUP SYF..

Classicists can shake it

2009-03-25T17:14:00.000-07:00

AMAZING SYF MOMENT

These are the beautiful faces of my high school Latin teachers, H Bo and T Gudge! Look at those expressions of some newbies, Toddles's eyebrows are TOO GOOD

++ They are in the Colosseum in Rome! I don't think I could be more pleased.

BIG Thank you to my sister, Emily, for prompting this moment of brilliance.

2009-03-24T11:30:00.000-07:00

Tammi from Minneapolis is a pro! Look at that wild mane. She deserves those bills bills bills just for her shakin' style.

Thanks, Tammi! Keep sendin' em in -- shakeyofacesite [at] gmail [dot] com

VINTAGE SYF

2009-03-16T00:03:00.000-07:00

Here are some vintage shots from some blog n00bs, Jason + Max

Hideous! (In a good way.)

Fantastic upper cheek

Look at those lips! Bare those teeth!

As you can tell, they are certainly not n00bs at the precise art of shakin dem faces!!

Thanks for the submission, Jason!

Shake Me a Supermodel

2009-02-11T17:01:00.000-08:00

Look at these beautiful people in their finery! Masha isn't a model but, let's face it, she could be if her legs were just a bit longer. But Colin is for real -- check out Season 2 of Make Me a Supermodel, coming to Bravo in March for more glimpses of this beauty!

Or just scroll down this blog... let's face it, he's a pretty stellar SYFer.

(kudos to Dan for the brilliant title)

A New Masterpiece

2009-02-09T14:23:00.000-08:00

I only expect greatness from Silberblatt, but Amanda has really outdone herself this time. Some serious lip action, folks!! Gabe's resulting hairdo is also a plus

SYF Grade: A+

Winter Break SYF-ing!

2009-01-15T19:43:00.000-08:00

Keegan (my bro) shakin' it up!

I DID MY BEST.

Mudstaches in the rainforest

2009-01-09T13:32:00.000-08:00

To add an extra kick to the typical SYF, add a mudstache!

So proud of my roomie! This is Amanda's best one yet!
Look at those lips!

Sometimes SYF "mess-ups" are even more beautiful!
PETAH!?

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a Shake Yo-bama!

2008-12-03T19:43:00.000-08:00

Seriously... this Obama mug looks like he could be doing a Shake-Yo-Face!! Making this our second official CELEBRITIY post!

Hugh Jackman

2008-11-17T13:24:00.000-08:00

Just don't shake it with your claws out

Thanks, Anne : Best Week Ever

Big Bar, Chicago!

2008-11-13T11:01:00.000-08:00

Reunited in Chicago and STILL shaking our faces!

Not my best, but a good effort!

Love the toungue.

A new face: Kenny from Chicago!

She is SYFing WHILE holding the two candles from our table... PRO.

SYF: Halloween edition!

2008-11-01T08:57:00.001-07:00

Can you recognize your friends when they're both in costume AND shaking their faces?

Carleton College facilities worker?

Cyclops
(how are you SO GOOD?)

I spent the whole night with her but cannot remember her costume for the life of me

Spin and Shake

2008-10-13T08:37:00.000-07:00

These boys took a break from spinnin' the sweetest tunes Sat night to shake their faces a bit.. and boy was it worth it.

Gabe S: x2 on SYF. Is he a shake yo face revolutionary akin to Che?

It's my turn for fame!

2008-09-23T23:43:00.001-07:00

Humans are not the only ones with shakin' skills!

Thanks to Kristina for that

You ain't from Russia, bitch, so why you rushin?

2008-09-23T23:36:00.000-07:00

This girl, however, is both of Russian and SYF descent.

Love ya, Masha!

Merks!

2008-09-22T06:13:00.000-07:00

Usually, we do not desire blurry pictures. However, in the world of SYF, they can sometimes be hilarious.

Nick's head was moving so fast! How does he do it?

Pros

2008-09-21T08:13:00.000-07:00

Have these boys been practicing in the mirror? Cuz they've gotta be extra special to be THIS GOOD, and twice in a row!

Thanks to Colin and Aaron. They're hotties when not shaking their faces about, I swear.. well, let's be honest, they're hot even when they look like this. You should date them!

To all our readers-- don't forget to send in your own shake-yo-face photos! shakeyofacesite [at] gmail [dot] com!

Tounges OUT.

2008-09-05T22:10:00.000-07:00

Group photos are still BA (bad ass, I shortened it). BUT we've found that going with the tounge out can also create an all new shake yo face experience! Check it.

Here's to Samoans!

2008-09-03T16:49:00.000-07:00

Since our dear friend, Lanaya, is currently having a wonderful time in Samoa while we're stuck in the US... I thought I'd share some of her latest (and close to BEST) work so far in honor of her absence!
Note: these pictures were taken in some of the last moments I saw her and they do get me a little choked up... LOVE YOU!The above one is quite good, but this one just takes the (squid) cake for sure!!

xoxoxo

Fall is in the air

2008-09-02T14:57:00.002-07:00

Well, folks, it's September now and summer is coming to a close. In honor of the coming autumn leaves, I thought we could use a bit of brown on this blog. Starring the famous Rithy Bein

Sister

2008-08-28T21:46:00.000-07:00

Second born of the Fitzgerald clan. Look for her at a pub near you! Grrr ... she's mean!

BEST ONE EVER!!

2008-08-23T22:50:00.000-07:00

This guy is officially a Shake-Yo-Face SUPERSTAR! We are so glad to have randomly met him :)

We're busy, but here's a treat.

2008-08-20T23:24:00.000-07:00

Here are some other choice rando peeps that Lanizzle tracked down at Mundo's... she's a creep.

Like Father, Like Son

2008-08-18T12:42:00.000-07:00

And Son :) Way to go, Dano!

Group Shake Yo Facing

2008-08-15T23:53:00.001-07:00

Seriously, group photos are all the rage.

One of the original group Shake Yo Faces! Jack, Hannah, and I working our magic at Mundo's!

The (octo)Puses show off their best after moving on to the finals of the Tug-o-War competition!

(also note the green headband flying off into oblivion. I was shaking it soooo hard.)

Girl Power

2008-08-13T10:33:00.000-07:00

Two new pictures today since we didn't share any yesterday!

Despite the stereotype that men can do significantly better Shake Yo Faces, we have proof that girls are VERY capable.

Send us more pics of your gals doing some serious face shaking!

What NOT to do

2008-08-11T12:21:00.000-07:00

These girls couldn't hold themselves together. A picture in which one is smiling and shaking one's head is NOT a shake-yo-face. These girls should be ashamed of themselves!

Everyone makes mistakes sometimes-- here is a picture of the goddess of ShakeYoFace herself, Caitlin, slipping up:

But it's like Aaliyah (RIP) once said-- if at first you don't succeed, then dust yourself off and try again.

That'll do, pig. That'll do.

Excellent lip protrusion.

2008-08-10T21:11:00.000-07:00

Punched in the left cheek.

2008-08-09T23:41:00.000-07:00
