The rules are simple: For the first week in April, you find a really bad photo of yourself(for example, making a stupid face or wearing a ridiculous outfit) and use that as your Facebook/Twitter/whatever profile picture. And you leave it there for a week. (Though, technically, you could use multiple pictures, as long as the total combined time was seven full days.)

| This is an example from the first Stupid Profile Picture Week. |
It began, as far as I can remember, about five years ago with a terrible photo of Amanda that somebody tagged her in. Like, so awful that it was hilariously good. And so we were talking about it, and it was decided that it was so awful it needed to be her profile pic for a bit, so people would be freaked out and get a laugh. And from there it was kept alive year-by-year, gradually gaining new participants, including Ash, Courtney and Jessica.
It's just kind of a lighthearted way to get started on a new month.
