maybe i'm just cranky but.....do you find this a little annoying?

i was just now browsing FB, being nosey...checking out pics of what old & new friends are up to - yada yada.  I saw that one of my guy friends from college is "in a relationship", so i check her pic out (he was one of those serial single, always looking for a g/f type guys back then).

I was like, she's cute...way to go so & so

Then I noticed she has 41 similiar web-cam / head-shot pictures of herself posted in one album alone Indifferent, i mean one after the other....with her head slightly tilted one way, then the other way, then making kissy faces, etc. 

Could she not decide out of the 41 pictures which one she looked the prettiest in, so she just posted them all?!?

Okay, i don't know why i found that annoying or really care...maybe i'm just jealous i don't have time to pose for that many pictures let alone post them all...

Re: maybe i'm just cranky but.....do you find this a little annoying?

  • My cousin does the same thing. She has like 100 pictures of herself looking up at a camera she is holding above her head while making a "sexy" face. It drives me crazy!

  • I have two friends that do this!  They are always posting new pics of themselves making sexy faces and I find it very annoying.  One girl even has 3 kids and I'm always seeing new pics of her kissy face and cleavage.  Do they not have anything better to do?
  • Yeah, it's kinda dumb...most of my FB friends who do that are my pre-teen cousins.

    hmmmm, must be a new generational thing.....i'm old so it doesn't make sense to me -LOL.  I swore I'd never "grow out of what'scool"....but if this is cool....i'm grown!

  • One of my former classmates does this. She has a kid in 2nd grade but the majority of her profile pics is of her taking a picture of herself with her lips puckered. It looks so stupid
  • Totally ditto the generational comment... my teen nieces are obsessed.  It's slightly disturbing.  I mean I know it's just a kid thing, but still w/ the heavy make-up... IDK if I'd roll w/ that if I was a parent.

  • I'm sure there are people my age that do this, but I find it ridiculous. This may sound harsh, but I find it more of a trashy gap than an age gap. It always seems to be the trashy girls that have picture after picture of themselves trying to lot hot.

  • Ugh I hate this. Its so rediculous. Personally I dont like to put pictures up of just me, I mean I do it but not 40, and by no means of all the same things.

    My SIL does this with pics of our nephew. 50 photos all of him laying on a blanket on the floor head turned each and every way. Yeah he's cute but get a grip!

    Well said!! I yelled at my mom the other day b/c I'm tired of her taking "self" portraits with this stupid ass kissy face pose. I asked her if she was 14 or what?!

    ha ha, I hear ya, I see this alot too, altho I'm totally guilty!! 

    Pearl has her own album pg on FB & on my google bio...good lord, what will i succumb to with a baby to post pics of!?!?  Tongue Tied

  • All of my friends who do that are blocked. I get it, you're pretty, move on.

    My annoyance is those picture things were there like 5000 pictures of Disney characters or whatever and people label you based on your personality. Maybe I just don't get the point of them.
