Because they've got no friends to go out and take silly pictures for Facebook with?

Then again, I'm one of them. All I do is sit at home trying to program (or design Britpop websites, which I'm doing at the moment for college).

Some do yes, someone said to me once "If you don't bring a camera the night never happened!!"

this.

its people who dont have time for pics who have the most fun IMO

[Joseph90]

People take insane amounts of pictures but we can rarely be bothered to tag them anymore. I find it annoying when people take pictures that all look the same and do silly things like pouting and thrusting breasts out so they look larger.

Couldn't agree more with you OP. There's at least one girl (spreading to 2 now) who everytime she goes out, for any reason whatsoever, has to rip out her little camera and take as many shots as possible. Then ASAP, literally ASAP (she's done it while we're round her house before), she can't wait to upload each and every one of them onto FB, and then its a race between her and a couple of her sad little friends tagged. Honestly, I used to think she wanted to preserve memories or whatever, but now its just got to a point where she wants a huge number underneath her name for the number of photos she's tagged in.

It's very much this 'oooohhh I am tagged in lots of photos with lots of my friends; therefore I am popular' attitude, and it really pisses me off, because we can't have a fun time now because we're too busy posing for bloody photos!

Same goes for people who just want to add anyone and everyone as their friend on facebook, just so they can have a 4-digit number on their 'Friends' box... as if it is like they are collecting them for rep or something ridiculous!

People definitely do this, it's so annoying, it's like a competition to see who can be tagged in the most photos at different parties and nights out and it's ridiculous.

[PhoenixFortune]

Yes.

And whenever I go to a genuine event like a birthday party or something, no one brings a camera!

I really hate this, I've seen albums uploaded of one night with 240 photos in it.

One night out, that's about 8pm til 2am on average right (or sometimes 10 til 4 - its about 6 hours), so they must have taken 40 photos an hour! thats pretty much every 120 seconds.... must take some serious effort!

I hate the way facebook also mocks you when you haven't been to a big event:

'64 of your friends were tagged in 400 photos in the album 'Party of the Year wooo''

[Murray Hewitt]

I dont get why everyone pouts in photos. Its not attractive

[ChunkymunkyDJC]

1 girl I know managed to have over 1000 pictures of her tagged in her first Uni year, altogether her friends took something stupid like 8000 photos...

[flinchalot]

I go out to have a laugh with mates, occasionally I take a camera if it's a special event like someone's birthday, but that's for the memories lol. Eventually nights out all tend to be quite similar so there's no point taking photos every single time! Especially if you go out a couple of times every week :P

[Clunge]

I don't mind people taking photos of nights out.

But it's when they take pictures when they go to the pub, or even worse round each others houses. Who the hell cares?
