They're good points. Social media is all a bit weird and creepy. I mainly use instagram to post my photography. It's turned into a little hobby recently. I like sharing my photos with strangers more than the people I know. Conversely, it only seems to be the people I don't know in real life that have any etiquette.
So yeah, I don't particularly care for these acquaintances, but I do see a few of them around uni, so deleting/blocking them would feel a bit awkward, especially as one of them is in my research group.

Its self-promotion for self-gratification
There's one girl in particular who does it all the time and she has a boyfriend, so it isn't that.
Is she good looking?
Never mind

No more good looking than I am. I'd say uglier in fact, because of her vanity.

social media like facebook exist and flourish because it's a natural part of the human condition to want to share with others about one's successes and things alike. some people get wholly absorbed into it, sure.

Its the internet so people copy and paste all the time. Half of the articles I see on shroomery are copy and pasted by users reading a article on HuffingtonPost, buzzfeed, or a random website.

Is it narcissist to post tons of selfies on instagram? I think it is, but maybe I'm missing something. Maybe narrcisissm is becoming socially acceptable.
I frequent instagram cause its a part of my work, and my account is following a lot of people who I know IRL and a chunk of them are female, and a good portion of those just post selfies all day, and yeah they're hot... but it's like, come on, how many more selfies are going to post? youre practically farming instagram likes, with hella dudes commenting with love hearts in the comments, its gross, its clear that these chicks are obsessed with themselves more than anything else, and their IG behavior has degraded the respect that I've had for them.
Not to mention the rant post selfies, where they post angry selfies of themselves with a rant in the post description about female inequality or how too many men are evil, and they get 300 likes and it's just fucking terribad in my opinion.
