Smiling profile pictures versus looking . . . tough, serious? Why? MsEcho_Yup: I much prefer to see a smiling profile picture than one with a scowl or someone trying to look tough. Do as you want of course, but why do you smile or not smile?  The giant midget: What you see is what you get from my pictures nothing to hide Millions of fake smiles and fake pictures on here Majority of folks on here are ashamed to post there real pictures of themselves and use the coverup of private profiles why back in the days on here ,private profiles didn't exist That's when wireclub was fun and honest MsEcho_Yup: I haven't been around that long Giant, but my pic and profile are real even if people don't like it. Can't control how people view me. I do not understand what someone would get out of faking pics and info, maybe I'm naïve! I take it your vote is for smiling like MJ59. The giant midget: I really don't care for people with private profiles on here and fake pictures .i seems that they are scared of the world. I can only imagine on how they live and communicated with strangers in the real world MsEcho_Yup: Calm down MJ59, can't take that much enthusiasm. Have you met The Giant? I hear he's big in these parts. Me, I'm a smiler! Damn happiness showing its ugly head! What ya gonna do? (Echo throws hands up in the air!) WHlSKY: haa I don't smile often for photos but it's not to look tough. Just feels weird faking a smile if it's not coming naturally and my fake smiles look as crap. MsEcho_Yup: Come on Jack, you can't think of any thoughts to draw a real smile? I don't know, I just see people who are smiling as more approachable. Just look at MJ59, how can one resist talking to that smile?  straywlf: Smile in some....not in others. My pics are from the time I post. Not always but my profile pics are usually kept up to date. Time changes us from day to day st my age  shebanks_e: I personally have a hard putting on a genuine smile for a SELFIE. I just position my face how I want & click away! 😠MsEcho_Yup: Are you more likely to begin a conversation with someone with a profile write up, or does it not matter? I guess I figure if you don't put any effort into that, you won't put much effort into a conversation either. A pm with "Hi" and no other info is just so hot! Ugh!  jasonabetkoff70: You are a rather judgemental Ms echo without actually getting to know someone ..YUK The giant midget: MsEcho, you make a valid observation. I personally have no desire to engage in any conversation with anyone whom didn't fill their profile or even worse when their profile is private. I somehow forget too even bother with any dialog if they don't have 1 single picture of themselves either I guess it is my personal preference but i guess it's different strokes for different folks MsEcho_Yup: Come on Jason, if I wanted to really be judgmental, I would have used something stronger than, "I guess I figure. . ." lol. How about, "I gotta hunch. . .?" straywlf: Isn't it funny how the judgemental people are the ones to point a finger at others. Never realizing that when they point that finger there are 3 pointing back at them jasonabetkoff70: Don't care what people think anyway Ms echo I was mistaken I thought the comment was directed at me. I can't stand having my pic taken don't mind if I m unaware. I skipped every school photo since grade 5 parents didn't like it but like I said who cares what others think. When some say smile I will give them the bird I can be happy and content without one, and there are a lot of smiling creeps out there. I meant to disrespect you and if you got that impression of me I am truly sorry. And if three fingers are pointing back at me Stepping Wolf-like I said I have I for them. Namaste good people MsEcho_Yup: It's all good! Different opinions make the world interesting. The original post was just something that occurred to me as interesting. I take no offense in someone not smiling, it's their right. I just find a smile more pleasant. I had reasons to hide my smile for many years. Now I want to smile! As for the profile, I figure why waste time on figuring out I have nothing I like about someone if they have no profile. I'm up front with who I am. If someone doesn't like me, I saved us both time and effort. |
