A Ridiculously photogenic guy (Zeddie) post.
You finish the fun run looking like a shipwreck survivor, and the official photos arrive by email. One is of a man mid-stride, glowing, teeth perfect. The next is you, in the background, mouth open, apparently being chased by something. Every group photo has the one friend who looks like the advert for the event. Eleven takes later, they are fine in all of them. You blinked in nine and sneezed in two. The passport photo booth gives you the face of a man who has just been told his flight is cancelled. Your mate's passport photo could be used as a profile picture on a very specific kind of website. Someone tags you in a photo from the work away day. You've been smiling the whole time, supposedly. In the picture you look as if you're doing a mental sum and losing. **Why it caught on:** a man called Zeddie Little was photographed mid-race, beaming, at the Gasparilla Distance Classic in Tampa, Florida, in 2012, his name printed on his race bib. The picture reached Reddit, where people captioned it with ordinary events turned into red-carpet moments, and it spread because everyone has a friend who looks that good in the one photo nobody warned them about.
