 While Marxist, just are assholes! :biggrin:



The selfie is the portrait of a generation. It's why Snapchat automatically opens to show you your own face. And it's why every smartphone on the market has a front-facing camera.

But new research published in The Journal of Research in Personality, led by Washington State University, might give you pause before taking that next selfie. The study found that people who took selfies were perceived by strangers to be less likable, more lonely, and even have lower self esteem than those who didn't. Meanwhile, people who posted more "posies" (or photos of themselves taken by other people) were perceived as more successful, likable, dependable, and perhaps most importantly, like they would make a good friend.

They reek of narcissism.  I don't get it.  I also don't understand people who post their every moment on Facebook.  What the heck?

You're Right, once it's on the web, it's there forever, parents need to teach their kids self control.
I'm glad I never got into that crap. I knew way back when it all started there was something sinister behind Faceplant, despite the innocence of it's family oriented facade.
Now all those people who thought they had a private account of personal photos have been sold out. But it's freaks like Obozo, or as you so aptly put it, narcissists starved for attention expose an even deeper illness within themselves.
Obozo and Trump are worlds apart in maturity and intellect and these pics prove it.
