Selfies

[Taylor]

U.K. study says they damage relationships. Finally scientific proof that they are lame and should never be posted.

facebook is only helping to further the narcissistic demi-god epidemic plaguing western civilization.

Whoever invented the selfie should be hit in the head with a tack hammer.

my daughter has taken a couple hundred selfies on our phones and ipad. i've deleted about 98% of them. she did it mostly as part of discovering what the technology could do, distorting her face or making funny pictures, and because she was 11. she still does some of them now but not nearly as often or as many.

 

i'm thankful we live in the digital age when pictures can just be deleted. couldn't imagine the tons of money we would have spent on developing pictures just to find what she had done.

I took a selfie as a joke years ago, it turned out to be my best pic, most commented, and asked to be used for model spots or advertising (insert gay jokes here).

Still don't condone it.

its OK if the girl is hot enough

[notherhalo]

it goes from tolerable to really cool if you can see some hooters

[Brandon]

in both cases, if a hot chick does a selfie, she has self esteem issues and is an easy mark.

the NSA laughs at you.

 

but yeah, god bless digital photography.

Is this a problem with anyone but young women and maybe gays?

Stems from a need for attention caused by daddy issues.

 

If that's the case, I am friends with a lot of gay people on Facebook and Instagram.

The article says "too many selfies" ruins relationships.  Nobody takes more selfies than our very own Chuck.  He changes his main pic on Facebook and this website more often than I take sh.ts.

And we all know, you're pretty damn regular.

If there is a mirror and a camera, my daughter WILL take a photo. But she too is an 11 year old girl. My only facebook activity is to monitor what she posts and who tries to access her page so selfies are just something else for me to laugh at.

Selfies were something else entirely when I was in high school.
