 Tried over-editing and here it actually looks quite interesting, let's see how it goes through. This is my son Lenart, and I hope his naughtiness is evident from his expression. The oxymoron from the title would be very familiar to all that have any contact with small children :)

Edit: Topaz (Adjust exposure), Levels (overdone to wash out the background), slight s-curve for contrast, desaturation in red, green, blue, magenta, resize, unsharp mask, gaussian blur, fade 20% normal, usm again, border, sfw.
