For the folks out there who don't partake in social media

No one really cares that I dont have social media. I just exchange numbers with the people I meet and hit them up as necessary as if it was 2003.

Its been harder to tell people that I dont drink than it is to tell them that I dont have social media.
 
I take pictures still. Always thought it was dope when Google would send a short video of the year from your pictures and videos that was uploaded into the cloud.


Also my parents took tons of pics of me growing up from trips to school events.
 
 
Do you just create random email addresses for these usernames? How much do you think my instagram will go for?

Every valuable username is already taken. On any given platform.

Your instagram wouldn't go for anything as it's not a unique single word, nor does it have a large following.

There's various ways people obtain usernames, 99% of them illegal.

I use a custom coded program (100% legal) that continuously scans a list of usernames for availability. Instagram has a policy of resetting inactive usernames, allowing them to be created again. So with my scanner constantly at work, if something pops up as available I quickly open IG and try to snag it. Obviously I'm far from the only one with such a program so there's a bit of luck involved. I can't perform much physical activity due to my chronic illness so some of my international friends taught me the game over the past few years. Started out to help pay for the medical bills but eventually I became better at it and can now provide for myself and have some excess for leisure activities.

i don't use social media because it makes me feel inadequate when i see all of my friends and enemies that are buying houses, traveling on vacations, having kids, getting married...

when people ask why am i not on social media, i just say because I'm too busy, but I'm not, just don't want to experience feelings of inadequacy for the things i haven't accomplished...
 
NT is my social media :lol:

Same :lol:.

I dunno i just dont like this ig twitter snapchat stuff. Probably cuz ima private person and dont like putting my whole life out there. I feel like people dont even do things anymore for the actual enjoyment it seems like they do it for social media. I could be wrong but i just feel like majority are like that.
 
How we gonna find out if shorty cheating though?

If she cheating, homie/homegirl did you a favor.

NT is my main social media, as it's always been. People who I'm cool with, we keep in touch. People who I don't F-with, know who they are so, we have no dialogue anyway.
 
Whenever I go somewhere and don't take photos people always act like I'm an alien or something.
"How will you remember?"
"Ummmmm I was there?" :lol:

:lol: i always hated pics since i was a kid. Been had mean mugs in pics lol. I always felt like leave me alone let me enjoy the moment or wherever we at stop hounding me for pics mom lol.

I like that you put "homie" in that comment.
 
I turned my fb and ig off to minimize distractions, studying for a test that may make or break my plans. Prob won't be back on til the end of the year.

I'll hop on Twitter/snap here and there just to see what my close friends are up to, throw a like here and there.

Don't care what everyone is up to on a daily basis. Also add that I don't want people to know what I'm doing all the time, scheming on the low word to Drizzy


Mind you I'm pretty social in my circle, but no one really asks or says anything about my social media b/c it's not the first time I went ghost. Just a couple "you deleted it?" to which I say its temporary when they try tagging me

And as mentioned above, NT is pretty much the social media now

I hate being in photos too. Group photos I'm tall so they always put me in the back and solos just makes me feel awkward. You want a photo of me then don't ask, just catch me slipping

Yeah. It's weird to me to see people snapchatting all night instead of enjoying the moment. :lol:

This. I went with a friend to a concert and she basically spent the whole time looking at the concert through her phone while she recorded and posted every video on IG. :smh:

Whenever I go out for drinks or some public event I see the same thing, mainly the 14-16 year olds. Kids at bars nowadays spending more time taking pictures and looking at their phones than actually talking to eachother :smh:

Lol these were 19-21 yr olds but i feel u its the same thing. I noticed a lot of people cant even look someone in the eyes when having a convo i feel like they just so used to communicating thru a screen nowadays.

14-16? Kids at bars? I k lmow you're from Europe but my gawd.
 
NT is basically the only social media I use.

I haven't used my FB in years. IG is only for creeping on the low.
 
My friends & everyone else know me as the dude that's always under the radar but will pop out at social events whatever & it's funny how so many ppl act surprised to see you when your life isn't readily accessible to everyone else:

Drinking age is 16 here. And kids of all ages are allowed at bars unless the owner specifically states otherwise. There's a bar literally right next to my former highschool. :lol:
Most bars have unwritten age restrictions though. Kids won't go in a bar with an adult/college students reputation.
We also have youth bars who cater specifically to the 14-18 year old crowd. I frequently visit a youth bar run by people of my age (22). Always at least a few 14-15 year olds in there. Also plenty of people my age though.

Only have Facebook for family, recently dropped Instagram with my break up and ended snapchat earlier this year. My boy tells me to get a snapchat to share stuff and it's kinda weird not having an IG since I'd use that to look up rappers/celebrities but for the most part it's no different. I feel as though it's a waste of time honestly, the girl I'm talking to now is so surprised I don't have snapchat or IG. I told her I don't have time for social media games plus it's causes females to worry for some reason in my opinion.
 
Best thing about social media is that you can add your ex a million times and she denies your request everytime. She so damn crazy, she the besssss!!!!!
