Post Do people go out purely to take Facebook photos?

I have so totally never done this.

No, seriously, I haven't, but I know people who have and I don't really mind. Why would you? Does it offend you in some way?

i wouldn't say so much that they go out for the pure fact to take pictures, but just do take lots of them whilst they are out, to make it look like such a good time.

its obviously people who are really insecure about their image and how many friends/pictures they have because they are worried about how people will judge them. I think it's funny how some girls (It's mostly girls who are like this...) and they have about 120 pictures from one night..... - Is that ALL you did that night? take pictures? And they seem to be really similar too....DIY pictures with other people, pulling the same face...mmm good one

Me on the other hand, yeah i have facebook, but i don't really care, in fact, i detag most of the pictures i get tagged in lol. I only put up my pictures from reading festival the other day....thats how much i care about pics on facebook!


Another thing which annoys me....People undating facebook from the middle of a club on their mobile......Shouldn't they be enjoying their night rather than worrying about updating their status?


/rant...

Lol, I'm sure some people do.

I don't take pictures unless I'm on vaction or its a special occassion (not just a run of the mill night). Yet, I have over 1,000 pics of me on Slagbook. People do take ridiculous amounts of pictures.

I updated my status once to say the following:

[My name] is in the pub. I'm officially cooler than you.

And I had one comment asking me how I got on Facebook from the pub.
