Had you a viral video, you’d watch it more than once.
2. Instagram hearts make you smile, even from strangers.
3. Which would you rather: *** or Zuckerberg friending you on Facebook.
No, this isn’t a Cosmo quiz — it’s a social experiment.
Because no one ACTUALLY answers these questions honestly without looking like that ****** at the pool trying to get as MANY high fives as possible.
Yet, we all do it. Alone or in public. Day or night. LED screen spice up our lives.
It was probably best embodied by that girl taking selfie after selfie after selfie after selfie, filmed for minutes on the way to school, the video soon posted, by her dad trying to teach her a lesson? Or trying to get attention? Either way, he might as well have hashtagged it #socialsuicide.
Like most humor we laughed at her because we are her. We see a dripping characterture ******* to itself in public.
Wait, it, sounds wrong when you name it.
But there is a name for it:
Digital *******, aka Self-adoration aka Narcississism.
You won’t agree that you do it too.
But I’ll bet most of you get excited thinking about notifications too.
Why is that?
You’d never admit it.
You can say I smelt it, so I dealt it. Call me a preacher, a hater, or a hypocrit.
But I'd rather you call me a digital masterbater too.
And then remember the last time you opened Instagram or Facebook or Twitter and took a selfie or hashtagged something or posted a status that your still breathing.
