MUG SHOTS: SEE IF THEIR LIPS MOVED!

Yep, the terrible truth is out and we feel awful! We must now confess that we've never used real people for any of our world-famous Mug Shots! We're sorry, we thought we could get away with using handcrafted wooden dummies! We thought you wouldn't notice!

What can we say? Just let us do it this one more time, OK? Then we'll stop writing captions while simultaneously drinking a glass of water.
