Women Be Trippin everywhere and all the time about everything you could imagine. We know why women be trippin, so here’s the next chapter in our list of 101 Ways Women Be Trippin.
For every good woman with a camera, there are a hundred other women who think there’s nothing better than taking pictures of themselves. These photos never end up looking good. They actually look stupid and are a clear signal that either the girls are drunk or about to get drunk.
The Outstretched Arm Shot (aka “Let’s Hope We’re All In Frame”)
This picture always ends up crooked, which is great if you want to cherish your memories while tilting your head like you’re eating a Taco Supreme.
Also, these pictures always end up with way too much empty space on one side. What are you - leaving room in the picture for your imaginary friend?
And do they not know that cameras are digital? I don’t want to see twenty bad pictures of her and her girlfriend kissing each other on the cheek. They have the power to delete them, but I guess the female brain hasn’t figured out what that trash-can-button is for.
The Mirror Shot (aka I’m So Vain I Want to Look at Me Looking at Me)
This picture says to me, “I don’t trust cameras, and I don’t trust mirrors, so let’s use both to see how we look tonight.” Do we really need to see forty pictures of her and her friends getting ready? If getting dressed up were so exciting, then it would be the main course. But it’s not. It’s not even an appetizer. I guess ladies just need a certain amount of validation that they look decent enough to go out for scorpion bowls and dancing.
Making things worse, that high-tech Christmas gift from Mom and Dad doesn’t know what to focus on in front of a mirror. It becomes about as useful as a cocker spaniel. The camera’s playing focus-roulette, and there’s only a 25% chance that your vain and hungry eyes will be in focus.
“The Simultaneous Shot” after the jump.
The Simultaneous Shot (aka “I Don’t Have Enough Pictures of Your Camera”)
Seriously? Why would anyone - ANYONE? - want to see a picture of your friend taking a picture of you? This is like buying three minutes of feedback on iTunes.
I’ve got an idea. Instead of taking pictures of each other, women who resort to The Simultaneous Shot should stop sitting alone in the corner of the party and go out and meet people - people who would gladly take pictures for them.
Now I agree with the last two pictures - absurdity. However, there always comes a time when it’s either a picture of you alone, or a picture of you and your friend (and her outstreached arm), and I always prefer the latter. Just my lil ol’ opinion.
Myspace shots!
Ok so regarding “The Outstretched Arm Shot (aka “Let’s Hope We’re All In Frame”)” this is actually the “I’m really a 300 lb woman but at this angle my face makes it look like I am a normal size shot”. Notice that the body is hardly showing. Watch out all you internet daters, this is something all fat chicks do.
