So... Who took your picture? Should it really be banned for people that have no friends to take a picture themself? Life moves fast its good to remember sometimes. I think its great to take lots of pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I claimed nothing, which you'll notice if you reread my post. I said that your motivation "seems to be to subtly insult etc etc". I made no claims, only observations. From your previous posts in the thread, it seemed like you were coming from a place of selfie-supporting arrogance. If you're not, then that's fine. So i have to define all the possible scenarios just to keep your imagination from getting away with you and making rude assumptions about what i meant? Not my job.

Not my job. Indeed. Which is why we're discussing it with words. You're getting uppity, not me. Take a selfie, you'll feel better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlitterRose Posted June 24, 2016 #29 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I hate getting my picture taken, and I always look like I hate the camera. Online, I rarely post any pics because I like to be judged based on what I have to say, and not how I look. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlitterRose Posted June 24, 2016 #42 Share Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) Oh yeah, I remember posting just a Halloween pic when I was dressed up like a witch...and I thought I was posting it just to my page on the site I was on (I was new to fora). Anyway, I didn't realize it would also show up on the home page and everyone would see it. Right away I had someone asking if I kept my pointy hat on during...erm...activities. Aaaaack!

Careful_perspective Posted June 24, 2016 #43 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I really have no business posting here since ya'know..my avatar is a selfie. BUT, surprisingly, I am actually not a super duper selfie type of person. I just didn't know what to make my avatar and now I just feel like it is part of my Unexplained Mysteries identity now! People wouldn't know it was me posting if I had some other avatar! Its like you always know Likely_Guy has the Camel, Taun the Moose, Imaginary Number the Gorilla, Merc is Steve Buscemi! Anyway, I think humans are kind of vain by nature and now its just easier to be vain. We can just take a selfie now, no need to worry about commissioning a painting! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, I want people to put a face with the post as you. Taking and posting selfies works for me, if it's vain so be it, and I can appreciate it's not for everyone. I think people have to do what works for them. I have not had any issues being respected for my intelligence. Honestly, that you posted a selfie gave me the impression we may have things in common and you are a very bright girl; selfie or not it comes through your posts. Beautiful women are intelligent too, you sure prove that. Edited June 24, 2016 by Sherapy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AbyssWalker Posted June 24, 2016 #48 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Back in my day, I took selfies the hard way...... and they weren't even called selfies back then... With phones that only had a 2 MP back camera, you couldn't really tell until after the picture is taken and you browse to the gallery to view your picture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Hammerclaw Posted June 24, 2016 #49 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I don't take selfies. My camera's broken or something and all that comes out is some old fart. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca-RoseElsie-Raemom1921 Posted June 24, 2016 #50 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I think there's a line between taking a selfie and being narcissistic. Sometimes you do think I look pretty or good today I'm going to take a photo, however some like the Kardashians do go overboard with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
