I know I take my fair share of selfies, and I know that it provides the same feeling as would a controlled substance when you get that alert on your phone telling you someone approves of your photographic efforts, but damn. It really feels like some of my fellow gays don't know that there's a camera on the other side of their phone. Please, break up the monotony of your tired ass bathroom mirror selfies, Tummy Tuesday posts, and Me Monday snaps with some scenery shots. Or your food. Or your dog. Or something that isn't your face. Hell, even variation in angles and backdrops would be better than the same picture in the same position everyday. Yes yes. You're cute, and everyone knows it. I'm sure you do too, even though you'd never admit to it, because that's unbecoming of a lady, and you wouldn't want people to know how self-involved you are. However, that "I'm feigning surprise even though I'm controlling the camera", mouth off-to-one-side, raised eyebrow'd, "who, me?" face you always make is getting really old, really fast. (As is that stupid-ass, scrunched forehead, Justin Bieber squint a lot of y'all do, too). It's quite affected. You don't look like that in real life. Quit peacocking. You look ridiculous. Want to know why most of the attention you get is electronic? Because anyone with half a brain who looks at your Instagram quickly moves on after seeing your face in Every. Single. Post. They know you're going to be a handful who needs constant validation, because you've set yourself up for it by relying on the Internet to determine your self worth. (Side note: The thirsty bitches who shower you with praise do it because they're desperate for attention themselves. So long as you don't actually acknowledge them, they'll keep on trying in hopes to get through to you) It's disgusting. I'm not perfect, either, but at least I know I have a problem. As gay men, a certain degree of narcissism is okay, and is to be expected, but do it in moderation, for fuck's sake. I highly doubt anybody reads what I post, but damn it feels good to get this off of my chest anyway!
