Hey, I’m having a great meal. BUT WAIT! I must photograph this so everyone on facebook can roll their eyes at my salmon and rice. My mother does this shit all the time. She travels a lot (this may be explained in a later post), and she always has to take a picture of her food to post to facebook. It drives me crazy. I don’t care what you’re eating. I’ve been out to dinner with my mother when she says in the middle of a conversation, “I’m sorry, I have to take a picture of this." How. Freaking Rude. Excuse me, mom, I’m telling you something very important, and you INTERRUPT ME to take a picture of your GODDAMN food?!?! A) Nobody wants to see your freaking food. B) You really want to post how much you’re eating? Really? Really? Get a real freaking life and eat/enjoy the goddamn food. Obviously, if you’re posting a picture of the food, you think it’s going to be good. Why don’t you try the shit instead of letting it get cold while you pull out your motherfreaking phone to take a picture of it?
On the subject of my mom and this post, she went to Ireland recently and left me her car while she was there. I drove her to/from the airport since I live near it (sub-metro area). When I picked her up, she gave me her camera to look through her pictures. You would THINK I would see gorgeous photos of the countryside, historical landmarks, and quaint pubs. Instead, what did I see? 75% of her pictures were of FOOD. Most of the SAME food, with different angles. Jesus christ. People these days.
Think before you post.
