My hobby used to be photography, and I can't stand when people take a horribly unflattering photo of me and are like, "OMG!! It turned out so well!!" Really? You think that's what I look like. Or rather, you think that's what I want to have immortalized on paper (or digitized) that I look like.

I just take selfies now, which people mock me for, but at least I can control lighting, angle, etc. It's still me, it's just not a washed-out version of me with 10 chins.
I agree. I hate being pressured into having my photo taken. And I never take photos of others unless they want me to. In fact, I hate taking photos of others since it can creep other people out and others don't like it.
