^ I think it's pretty much down to the discretion of the individual member. I wouldn't call it creepy though, I'd call it the exact opposite; very innocent and trusting. Actually plenty of members used to post group pics; " me and my team mates," "me and my family's party" etc, etc. One girl used to post her wasted party pals as I recall.

On a different topic, here's some news which is actually nice news:-

Quote:

It is six months since the introduction of the 5p charge for single-use plastic carrier bags in England, the last part of the UK to implement a charge. Here are six things we have learned since then:

1. Bag usage has plummeted

The overwhelmingly good news is that bag usage has slumped by around 80% and remains static. The UK’s largest retailer Tesco said in December that the number of bags had been slashed by 78% since the charge was introduced, while at Morrisons, plastic bag consumption was down 80% across its stores. Each major retailer (of more than 250 employees) is required under the regulations to report to the government by the end of May so the national, official picture should become clear in June.

2. Charities are benefiting

While retailers can choose what to do with the 5p proceeds, they are expected (though not legally bound) to donate it to good causes, and over the next 10 years the government hopes this will raise about £730m. Retailers have to report to ministers about where the money has gone, and eventually the government will also publish this information each year. However, so far Tesco’s Bags of Help scheme alone has attracted 8m votes from shoppers for local environmental projects that will benefit from the largest single injection of funding in the UK - more than £20m in the first year.

If you don't like it, there are plenty of other forums to sign on to. You need to back the fuck off with your petty bullshit. Some people here use the creepy thing as humor, you on the other hand will probably report stupid shit like that because it doesn't suit your asinine narcissistic views. Get the fuck over yourself already.

Chicks!

I'm sure I'm not the first person in the thread to say that, but it bears repeating.
