Picture …Perfect?
Two days ago a friend of mine posted a photo of another friend of mine on facebook. A third friend (yes, its confusing, bear with me) decided to make that photo (which was, actually, quite embarrassing) their profile picture, thus making life a little bit more confusing, yet a little bit more entertaining.
The question I have is, what does choosing a photo that is not you as your profile picture say about you. And even further, what does choosing a picture of another friend as your profile picture say about you? What even IS a profile picture and why does it matter?
I made a conscious choice when joining this site to not put a photo of myself up. This is primarily because I don’t want to show my identity, but also because I felt it didn’t suit the theme of my blog. In looking at a profile picture it seems these are the two primary points: identity and theme.
Simply call me mother. I'll teach you well.
