Getting old means your son has an instagram account and you have no idea what Instagram is.

Or snapchat.

I think I can make it for another 44 years without it.

You (and a few others here) really need to make the effort to stay informed.

Sometimes this place feels like an outpost of 1993.

Now, Instagram is picture based social media and is mainly for retards and narcissists.

And Snapchat is an instant messenger that is picture based, and the pictures allegedly expire (are removed from the system) in a short time frame like a minute or less once viewed.

There, you're up to date... not.

Yeah really.  ;D

My extensive cross-cultural knowledge of and insight into popular internet culture is a testament to two things: one, an ADD like compulsion to learn out of sheer boredom.

Two, probably systemic immaturity on my part.  :o  :P  I wish I were 25 or so and knew (and understood) the shit that I know now. Seriously. Also a compulsion to be part of a "scene" without really partaking, or something.

Instagram is where the hot women like to post selfies of themselves.

That would be mildly redeeming.

Instagram is also where rich assholes post envy photos of their cars and possessions.

Basically, Instagram is the raw version of everything pathological about the human spirit.

http://stylecaster.com/hottest-women-on-instagram/

This is just a sample that I got from typing in "hottest women on instagram".

What blows me away is the number of followers. Some of them have followers in the MILLIONS.

I see almost ALL social media follows and likes of public figures as a transfer of your dignity and power as a person. You're basically saying "I bow in your direction and you are important enough for me to interrupt my day and otherwise give you my attention."

I am worthwhile and it's rare that I get supposed peer *friend's* attention.

I'll be Goddamned if I'm going to give someone with all kinds of public attention my own head space.

I'll make my own private bookmark of such content so that nobody can use my like or follow information to bolster the spoiled social media celebrity's ego.

I'm not on Instagram, but I look at some things on it.  Mainly home decorating stuff and DIY solutions that people came up with for old houses.  I have no desire to post anything myself.  Just looking.
