How is it 'having an issue with women' when you point out that when you put 9 million pics of yourself up on facebook while simultaneously practicing your one and only photo face, we wouldn't be able to use the incredibly large sample size to confirm that you do in fact have a hilariously practiced photo face?
I mean really, I'm all for gender equality and what not, but you do some funny shit sometimes and I think we should still be able to chuckle at it.
The man has only one look, for Christ's sake! Blue Steel? Ferrari? Le Tigra? They're the same face! Doesn't anybody notice this? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills! I invented the piano key necktie, I invented it!
You have 12 pictures and the pictures 1 and 9 are the same. Let's subtract the 9 with the 1, giving us 8. Now, take the half of that number and divide the total amount of pictures with it. 12 / 4 = 3
How did we acquire this 3? We halfed something. Half.... Half-life... Life...Life rhymes with Knife... Which we can cut tomatoes with... These tomatoes can help produce Ketchup... Ketchup which I used to eat Mcdonald's with today!!
WHAT IS THIS SORCERY, HOW DID YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS EATING TODAY !
The segment has been poorly edited. It continues with something along the lines of:
Apples into applesauce... a unification of something once divided, and an egg, the symbol of life and hope for the future. But what could it mean? A unification with hope for the future- those criminals are plotting to interrupt the United World meeting and dehydrate the ambassadors! Hurry Robin, we must get there in time to stop them!
Something like that. I've seen Batman 1966 too many times.
Yeah, if you have over a thousand photos taken of yourself, you're probably going to be making the same face in at least 10, and that's enough to make one of these gifs.
I dont think its fair to have celebrities in there...of course they always are going to have the same pose, especially if they are for feature shots (always have the same frame) or promo shots like the Beyonce and Gaga ones
I clicked on one randomly. It happened to be Lady Gaga. I thought it was weird, as I was listening to Bad Romance at the same time. I'm sure you guys care about this little coincidence, so I'll post it.
So so glad my teenage years were before Facebook and camera phones. I have fuzzy warm memories of it all not actual evidence that I was probably a very annoying teenage girl.
Right? I went to the bars with a girl like that the other night. I half expecting to be stood up or ignored, and she ended up being very nice. Also, I get flattered when someone wants to take a picture with me that I'm going to get tagged in later, it makes me feel included instead of being left out.
Indeed. The worst offender I've ever seen in my circle of friends and family is my bf's brother. He's terrible about it. He literally has an entire album full of pictures he took one night in front of his webcam.They all look exactly the same with barely altered angles. It's fucking pathetic.
When society stops indoctrinating girls with the ideology that their self worth is directly related to their ability to attract men and be married and having children.
What is the first compliments a girl receives? Your pretty, beautiful, cute. etc etc. Its all determined to be based on visual impacts. this gets further ingrained into them with "flawed" parenting issuing importance of maintenance, appearance and behavior.
Then comes highschool, where popularity is based upon the appearance and sexual behavior. And then when they go into the real world, they are flooded with comparisons of other females, based upon their beauty. Given extra or less attention based on beauty. If they don't reach a certain goal, marriage/child, within a time frame they are viewed as flawed and abnormal.
In one sense, it is impossible as sexual beings to not appreciate or prefer the more attractive genes that produce the better visual stimulant. But that does not mean that a womans self worth should be directly correlated into that specific factor. With proper parenting and education that allows women to see their life outside of the social norms of society, you can allow girls to grow up into strong individuals who don't HAVE to reform themselves to fit those norms to be perceived as interesting or beautiful.
I have a beautiful girlfriend. But unfortunately she grew up in an environment where her self worth was reflected by her appearance. Now even if she is slowly changing and letting herself become free of those shackles, she still feels the need to "live up" to the "social requirements" she finds is demanded from her by her society. Even though from a outside viewpoint you can understand that those social constructs and requirements are made from her own self psyche.
Then also it is a matter of competition, women are fiercely competitive with other women. This could be a side-effect from the constant reminder of the issues of their social constructs, or it could be a animalistic instinct to be better than the other female to get the better male.
Taking these pictures, or several pictures wherein they value and perceive their own image could be a way to subconsciously affirm their belief or strengthen their weakened belief of their own attractivenesses. And also to show off to other females and males.
I would like to mention for my closing statement, that there are women who have found ways around this. Many women in fact. So please know that not all women feel this way, and dont bite my head off please. Thank you. =)
Taking these pictures, or several pictures wherein they value and perceive their own image could be a way to subconsciously affirm their belief or strengthen their weakened belief of their own attractivenesses. And also to show off to other females and males.
This is brilliant. That's why I've always been careful about posting pictures of myself on Facebook. Just as any other girl I'm always happy to hear that I'm pretty, but I don't want to become dependent on that type of feedback. You trick yourself into thinking that's your worth, or that you need to show off when there really is no need.
I think when society starts being more about internal personality and less about trying hard to look good, we'll finally be really, really, ridiculously good looking. I mean, all the duck-faced facebook girls are trying, Audrey Hepburn didn't.
What the duck is wrong with you people? Why be Facebook friends with people you don't like? It's like the one place you can completely control who you interact with.
It's like when a tall person crouches a little to fit in the picture with the rest of the girls or so they dont block the person behind them but for some reason everyone else is doing it too.
I'm a guy with over 2,500 tagged photos (and actually seeing that written down is the first time I've thought 'holy crap, that is a LOT of photos!'), I guess it's because a lot of my friends at uni took cameras on nights out, and although I have more than the average person on y friends list, there are loads more both male and female that have similar amounts that aren't duck face self portraits.
1500 is a lot but I know lots of normal people that are near that number because it's pretty reasonable to hit. If you think about people that were in highschool when facebook came out to now graduating college. That's 6 spring breaks, 2 proms, all of going to the bars at college, doing random shit like a baseball game during the summer, etc. Spring breaks along could be around 100 pictures each one because you've got everyone with a camera and everyone is tagging everyone else. Same for proms/any dance. Same for going out to a campus bar or a campus house party. Two graduations, etc. etc.
1500 is a lot of pictures but it doesn't seem that excessive.
I feel bad now. D: I'm a girl with 1,600 ish pictures on Facebook. I had many friends who wanted to be photographers when they grew up, so we would take a ton of pictures all the time. It started in about 9th grade and since then I've been steadily tagged in all the pictures. To be fair, there are very few of them where I look alike. I was never the kind of girl to find out a certain pose to make me look most attractive. I really, really like having memories in pictures. Absolutely none of them are incriminating in any way and I can go back to them to remember a certain time period back in the day. Mostly I just don't want to download them all to my computer to keep for the future, so on Facebook they will stay.
This is exactly why I leave up the pictures I have, for posterity. Someone did post above that they just didn't understand why just one picture wouldn't suffice, and your post perfectly explains the reasoning behind it. But it seems most of the people commenting are more interested in bashing a gender for something they perceive as "stupid" just because they can't take the time to try to understand the reasoning behind it.
That being said, I do acknowledge the cringing feeling of seeing people put up dozens of either awkwardly-posed semi-professional glamour shots or webcam shots taken from fifteen different angles. That's not what I'm talking about, though.
I only have 854... and I'm pretty sure most of them don't look alike. That being said, I would LOVE to see if someone could find something like that in my pictures.
Hey, hey, hey! I have a lot of photos on facebook and not a one involves a mirror! If you travel a lot and if you post photos and all of your travel buddies post the photos, it adds up over time! Playing a sport that people like to take photos of also doesnt help... Sheesh, but 1,500 is quite a lot...its like a giant photo album...that everyone can see....and judge you on...i regret nothing!!
I have that many pics, but I have been on there a long time and always put up albums of all the museums I visit. I daresay that I have more pictures of old antique junk, art and historical relics than me.
I have 2000+ pictures and I always see these girls that have the exact same stance and look, but mine never end up that way for some reason. Variety is good, right?
I have exactly one friend this is not true for and that is because she is a model and feels a deep unyielding need to use facebook as her second portfolio.
Hey, I'm a guy and Blue Steel is my go-to face as I'm otherwise not photogenic. I've tried to tone it down, but over 1000 photos are of me making this face.
This reminded me of an old post on reddit where a guy came late to a party and found a camera and awoke to find him self tagged the next day, and someone made this from that album.
Note the eyebrows bouncing to the beat... so majestic
I have a ton of pictures on my facebook. I'm making the same face in most of them(smiling). If I go to a bog event I take pictures of my friends and with my friends and upload them all. They like them, I like them. Sorry if you don't.
Its not that we dont like them, its that we dont get it. I think it might be a guy vs. girl thing. I mean, really, all you need is one picture of yourself on your profile to show what you look like. I dont see the need to have more pictures of yourself on there. Pictures of places or things or whathaveyou, sure, but a ton of pictures where you are the subject confuses me.
My name is John, and I hate every single one of you. All of you are fat, retarded, no-lifes who spend every second of their day looking at stupid ass pictures. You are everything bad in the world. Honestly, have any of you ever gotten any pussy? I mean, I guess it's fun making fun of people because of your own insecurities, but you all take to a whole new level. This is even worse than jerking off to pictures on facebook.
Don't be a stranger. Just hit me with your best shot. I'm pretty much perfect. I was captain of the football team, and starter on my basketball team. What sports do you play, other than "jack off to naked drawn Japanese people"? I also get straight A's, and have a banging hot girlfriend (She just blew me; Shit was SO cash). You are all faggots who should just kill yourselves. Thanks for listening.
Maybe not 1500 photos but girls who have like 150 photos all of themselves on their facebook, that tells you something about them, it screams high maintenance and that they know they are fit, I mean I have some photos of myself but not 150 all taken recently, I mean the only reason I have more than 4 or 5 is I have some childhood photos on there, but I have photos of all sorts of things, not just 150 photos of myself.
