Facebook holiday bores.

[Netcurtainnelly]

What do you think of people who are suffering from main character syndrome when they are on holiday.
The everyday updates on what they are doing and 53 photos. 53.

Taking the phone in the sea and doing a selfie so we can see what they look like in the sea.

It's like some people can't relax anymore unless they are broadcasting every day for validation.

It is doing exactly that! It creates a memory time capsule and every few days you get a reminder of what you were doing x amount of years ago, imo its the best bit about FB, only this morning I forwarded a FB memory to my daughter from 14 years ago that we never would have relived without this amazing time capsule that we all hold in our hands 🥰

On my own holiday I am the main character and I will do what I want. You on your holiday mind your business and you do you

I think you need help for your rage about what other people do

We don’t need to ask as it is their decision and not your business. And if you are not looking then why would you care? This has to be a rage bait post

The worst photos for me are ones of people by the poolside, sitting on their balcony and nothing outside the hotel complex.

They can be anywhere

I love seeing my friends having a wonderful time and enjoying themselves .

I agree people are too self absorbed. I watched a family at the beach set up what seemed to be a nice family day at the beach with young children and older kids. They did a couple of games which they filmed and once that was finished stopped recording and left. It was all just “look how much fun we are having” video opportunity. I felt for the young kids , never seen anything so ridiculous. Instead of actually enjoying people are too busy making it look like they are.

Lots of people still do

I love seeing people’s pictures. If I don’t want to then I don’t look. It’s their life so why not be the main character.

I do all of the above. Even check in at the airport. Makes it even more fun when it makes people like you seeth with jealousy.

I like seeing holiday pictures and families having fun, sometimes I flick through and think it’s an interesting destination to put on my list of places to think about visiting.

I like to see them, and I like to post them. Each to their own and life's too short to judge

That’s why I have come off FB. People are really annoying. I take a look at it every now and then but the same people are still there and are still as annoying. Take a break from FB. Your life will be more peaceful.

Just click 👍 if you’re bothered and scroll on?

I always think that some people are so obsessed with documenting their holidays that they fail to fully experience them.

Agreed. Most of the time when I post it's for the benefit of my parents and in-laws. If other friends like it great. If they don't, nobody is making them look at my photos. As far,as I can see the biggest problem is people being FB 'friends' with people they don't know or don't like. I know and like everyone I'm 'friends' with.

I highly doubt anyone would do this. The vast majority of people I see at any place of interest are enjoying their day, maybe taking the odd photo or video as a record if their time. Me and my family love looking back at photos of earlier times so always make a point of taking photos/video whenever we're doing something fun, are somewhere interesting or are with friends or family. Especially grandparents won't be around forever and we'll really value the videos and photos when they're gone. It really has nothing to do with you what others choose to do. Maybe enjoy your day instead of judging others?

This.

I love a good snoop at other people's holiday pics.

Facebook passed me by completely - I use Instagram for posting pictures of stuff including holidays but only allow close friends and family
They can pass me by and im not offended

Isn't that what Facebook is designed for though? Just don't look at the 53 pics if you're not interested.

100%.

If I wouldn't look forward to a coffee with them, they're not a friend in FB

I don’t care if you doubt it .. it’s what happened.

You sound like you have no life to be honest! You are staring at Facebook and seething at lives that seem better than yours! If you feel hatred for it don't look at it!
My partner and I don't have kids, we like travelling and yes we put photos up of scenery and interesting things we've seen, we aren't selfie obsessed so it's not pictures of us. We post pretty much nothing on Facebook the rest of the time! There are people in our life that like looking where we've been and getting travel inspiration from it because we tend to go to the more unusual places.

It's not up to you what people post and you really do come across as jealous and miserable!

Just come off Facebook, if you dont like peoples photos, or dont look at them. Isnt that the point of Facebook ?. You sound very miserable and jelous op.
