idiotic / narcissistic / annoying facebook statuses - Page 1597 - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

I just got the Instagram app to check it out and it was basically a mirror image of what everyone on Facebook has posted today. Why are people posting pictures to Facebook and then to Instagram if all of the same people are on both. This is just so bazaar to me. Like are they worried they won't get enough likes on one or the other. I don't get it; I use Facebook as my photo storage and to share pictures of my kid with my family. I don't get taking selfies everyday either, especially if you are posting them to multiple social medias with all the same people.

Instagram is owned by Facebook. Most cases you just tick an option to post to both at the same time.

The same reason people post the same thing in multiple threads: they want as many people as possible to see their posts.

I was just trying to move the discussion here as I thought it was more appropriate for this thread.

One of my blood relatives started slinging that MLM beauty crap on FB. Skynet gaining self awareness and wiping out all the humans cannot come soon enough.

Making identical posts in different threads about how instagram is stupid because it's just like facebook and why would you post identical things in different places is some of the craziest 2+2 performance art I've ever seen holy ****.

There's no way a 4-year-old wrote that stoned.

Only the surplus is subject to the higher tax bracket. You still pay exact the same over the first 249.000, the higher tax bracket is only applicable to the money earned above that ceiling number of the previous tax bracket.
