What is up with people posting the same pic's over & over?

WOW, what is it with people posting the same old tired looking photo's constantly and asking for ratings and how they look, ONCE or TWICE wasn't enough ? I see the same ones over and over every day.

    People feel the need to belong and connected in this day and age a little too much to recognize that "They" are just emitting the self conscious ego that is the standard for American life now. If you have to post your picture to see what someone you have never met thinks about how you look, then you are spending too much time with your eyes and fingers glued to "texting" and "using face book" instead of having real conversions and developing your reasoning abilities and and the more meaningful portrayal of one's self

    well i think they think some people lied to them so they post again to look for genuine answers. some people just love themselves too much and repost after getting like 25 comments just hoping someone will eventually tell them they are supermodel material. so irritating. and then there are the ones who claim they are like so ugly and then they repost their hot pics and then they take up everyone's time.

    I totally agree with you!

    They probably don't get the answers or compliments they are wanting so they re post to see if they get something different.

    It is quite obnoxious but hey people will still do it again and again.

    You obviously haven't been here for very long.

    I gotta admit, this is such an insightful question. Can't believe no one has ever thought of it.
