Annoying OLD pictures

[niadainud]

OMG I swear about 85% of men post photos in which either:

a) They're wearing sunglasses
b) They're in a group but don't tell you which one they are*
c) They're pulling a ridiculous face

For the love of God, at least make the first profile picture a clear likeness!

Also, they all seem to ski, whereas irl I hardly know anyone who skis.

*I've started making a point of writing to say, for example, "I love your beard!" when the guy in the centre of the frame has a beard but then turns out not to be the one who actually owns the profile.

Anyone else noticed this?

At least they aren't posing with sedated tigers or in front of expensive cars they don't own

Yes!!

Every photo pouting and not a smile in sight, group of 5 or 6 other girls, baby’s/children in pics and filters/clever angles which make them look more attractive and or about 4 dress sizes smaller!

True. There are relatively few car shots and, thus far, no comatose big cats.

I haven't seen any in a dress yet, but I guess it's only a matter of time.

Or the photo is always taken in the toilet/ bathroom. I'm assuming its because its the only room with a mirror??

Yes, that's a fairly common theme too. And it's never a bathroom that you would actually want to use...

Posing holding giant fish, poking their tongue out or laying topless on the bed looking ‘seductive’ 🤢

Ugh, yes.

Don't forget these classics;
Bathroom mirror selfies.
"Hi there. I've just taken a shit. Hit me up ladies!"

Sweaty gym mirror selfies.

Posing beside a motorcycle or sportscar. "Can you tell I'm overcompensating?"

Photos with the ex in them.
I've even seen photos of them with their exes and the ex's face is whited out, has devil horns or has a Hitler mustache. One charmer had replaced his ex's face with a creepy skull. "Why oh why isn't anyone responding to my profile? I don't understand!"

I assume you'd know which one was the right one in a group with 5 or 6 girls as the owner of the profile would be over 18, therefore the woman in the picture, not one of the girls.

i've seen two so far with sedated tigers, one was even a small baby tiger who apparently was taken from their mum to be used as a toy in pics. 😡

Yet most women take selfie photos from a slight height so as to look thinner and filter the hell out of them to make them look better.

Men have to catch a carp or climb a mountain, its so not fair.

Jeez. Please let me date one of those wonderful specimens. (I mean the men, not the tigers.)

I reckon the expression "there are plenty more fish in the sea" must be untrue as most of them have been caught by these men to show off in their profile pictures.

🤔 <<<< surprised no has mentioned so many pulling this stupid face

Ditto skiing in a full body suit with glasses and anonymous headgear.... 🥴

Dont forget the loo lid is usually up in bathroom shots too. Gross.

If the first photo is a group shot I swipe left. If he can't be bothered to be clear then I can't be bothered to work it out. I have group shots but I pixelate the other faces out. Can't say clearer than that!

Strangest one I saw was a widowed guy whose profile photo was him putting flowers on his wife’s grave - her full name and dates of birth and death were clearly visible.

And recently seen several of men just in their pants - I mean why??? And my age group is 50+

I hope at least they look toned up/ fit

Well I mentioned both sunglasses and stupid expressions in my OP...!

Really really not

One charmer had replaced his ex's face with a creepy skull

What the actual Christ!

Or door with a lock so dw doesn't see

Pictures taken with their phone practically in their lap so they get 17 chins! Do they actually look at it and think it's a great picture?

I'm dipping back into OLD at the minute, and it's driving me mad already.

It's been a good few years since I did any OLD but I see it hasn't changed! 😂

My personal favourites were men in fancy dress. I'm not talking about 21 year olds who have just left uni, I'm talking about grown up men in their 30s wearing ridiculous fancy dress costumes.

If they got dressed up for a stag do, or a party, fine, but why on earth do they think that adult women want to see their potential date looking like a complete tool in fancy dress?! It's really not attractive!

Nothing says 'Hey Ladies, I'm single and ready to date!' like a picture of a man putting flowers on his wife's grave.
