Has it got anything to do with appearances in the passport photo?

Please add context to turn this into a real question. Eg, source and context of sentence, appearance of photo, who said it to whom. Questions lacking enough data to support answers may quickly be closed. – jwpat7 Jan 14 '12 at 21:23

Sorry, but I just read this line as a status update on facebook and dropped down here. – MeetM Jan 14 '12 at 21:28

I'm voting to close because this is basically an "Explain this joke to me" kind of question. I can't see anything about it that depends on the use of English as such. – FumbleFingers Jan 14 '12 at 22:41

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

Yes, it has to do with the way someone might look in a passport photo, because such photos typically portray the subject as being unhappy in some way.
