What's with the kissyface self pics?

Why does every 16-29 year old chick feel the need to post a picture of themselves making a kissyface? What's the story with this? I don't know why but it bugs the hell outta me.

[randoms from Google]

Would you rather it be a bunch of middle age men making the kissy face?

It is so common I'm wondering if I missed some social movement or something. Did some movie star make it popular or something?

it all *may* have been started by the 'faux cool' acting from "zoolander". people started mocking the movie look so much it actually became part of life?

I know, my stepdaughter, 23, just recently got a set. They cover the entire top half of her face. I think these were also in style in the late 70's or maybe early 80's.

And, yes, I've seen innumerable pics of youngish chicks on the internet making the kissy face, and in about 80% of the pictures it looks ridiculous. Some of them make it look cute or sexy, but then those are also the same ones that can make any look cute or sexy.

Prevents them from having to wear makeup or put it on in the morning when there hungover. The number of girls wearing them on Friday morning at school is nuts compared to a Monday or Tuesday.

Nope, increasing UV rays from depletion of the ozone caused by Al Gore's leaky air conditioning system. UV radiation is bad for the eyes!

Get with the program!!!
