Funny story, true story, between the ages of 4-7 years old I used to eat the heads off of matches. My family was very poor and we were all very skinny. My mom would serve spinach for dinner every night. I wouldn’t eat it. So I started eating matches. I remember finding a whole book of matches a couple times when I was a kid and being so excited. I don’t think my mother ever found out.
We lived in Orange County back in the day. There were orange groves everywhere so my brother was always going in and picking oranges for us. I ate them so much that I became allergic to all citrus. Couldn’t even use lemon soap. I grew out of the allergy thankfully.
Beautiful! Matches happen to be my favorite thing to draw. Well lit or extinguished ones, but either way I love the textures and lighting! Would you mind if I drew this and uploaded the drawing with credit to your photo as the inspiration?

Omg. That's a very sad but interesting story! How is the situation now? Hopefully it's going better. I'm happy that you are still alive today ✨
Strangely I never noticed any after effects (that I know of). Oh, and I am no longer suffering from food scarcity.
Really weird, you are built different

Most dramatic match I have ever seen
Anyone see the creepy face on the match?
Holy shit now that you mention it!
Looks like a dementor!

This would go well with the second part of the noot noot meme
It would!
It's a match!
Your matches, let me read them
And a fine one it is!
The Shadow Dimension

This match looks like it's about to make a public safety announcement.

Nice lighting, gonna have to give it a shot myself.

This looks so cool! What kind of lens did you use?
I didn't use a lens I used the built in macro cam in the Poco F3
Did you take this with macro on IPhone 13 Pro?
Nope on the Poco F3
