Ugh

So the other night I went to the typical chart-playing, topman shirts & shoes nightclubs that you get up and down the country. I try to stick to my pubs or more underground clubs usually, but it was a mates birthday so i grudgingly agreed.

Anyway what disgusted me more than anything was the number of times my mates group of friends (most of which i don't know) would whip out a camera to pull dozens of forced 'random' poses. Literally about every 5 minutes or so, how is that enjoyable, WHY DO PEOPLE FEEL THE NEED TO DO THIS?

[chronic_fatigue]

they do it so they can brag about it on facebook
pathetic really

[Smeh]

Maybe it's because in 50 years we're all gonna be grey and wrinkly so they want to remember the good times they had?

I'm assuming your post is just a rant and not looking for answers. If not, the answer is facebook.

Secondly, the real reason i posted is, cool username. Two of the best things, sensi and dub music, by which i assume you mean reggae/dub

I really don't know at what point in the night I'd pull out a camera, gather everyone together and go "PICTURE TIME GUISE!!!1", people who do that must be super bored.

WORD.
This always seems to hapens when I go to parties and it's just like: Why did you all bring a camera??? Bring alcohol next time you ****.

Though saying that, it is handy to tell me what I was up to that night.......but also ends up on facebook and I get zillions of notifications - ''some moron with no life tagged you in a photo'' even if ust my arm or back of head is in the frame, Now that is annoying.

But the OPs talking about excessive amounts of photos. There is a clear distinction, most people dont mind a couple here and there.

Summed up in one LOL, a night out is just one big camera opportunity now

[Krakatoa]

Yeah I feel this alot.
Is like people are more interested making poses for how they will look on facebook,forcibly holding up the alcohol showing their social stripes.
People I know ake about 200+ pictures on a night out,its like what is the point,yeah the odd few but is this need to constantly do it.

I guess some people are shallow.

Looking for a sense of identity? ha I dunno.
Sad when people have more of a life in facebook pictures than in reality.

I agree, even worse is the toilet room pose. Ladies, it ain't the men who are doing it .

[Oh snap!]

Just thought I'd remind you.

A few photos are good to remember a night out, but I usually find the more photos taken means the worse the party was, as there's nothing else to do but take photos! I hate all the younger ones who've just gotten into partying and think it's cool to deliberatly get a bottle of alcohol in the photo. I took a camera once to a party and didn't use it cos I'd rather have a good time, but if someone else wants to take the photos I don't see no harm.
