It’s no secret that the first thing a girl does after giving out her number to a new crush is check out his Facebook page. That is why it’s VITAL to a guy’s game that he has a somewhat appropriate Facebook profile pic.
Recently we gave some of our close guy friends a Facebook Profile Makeover. After reviewing thousands of facebook tagged photos of our handsome, charming, and hilarious guy friends, we had a mini revelation. In every picture they were behaving like adolescent teenagers circa spring break 1999. In other words, they looked ridiculous.
We know that sometimes alcohol, a table at a flashy club, and the newest Jay-Z hit can get the best of our friends, and snapshots of these nights tend to always make their way to profile pic status. We love them nevertheless. However, to the naked eye (i.e: a new girl you’re crushing), a profile pic of you popping a bottle, with your shirt unbuttoned to your stomach, wearing sunglasses A) inside and B) at night, is NOT the digital first impression you want to be making.
That is why we’ve compiled a list of the 25 worst things a guy could be doing in his Facebook Profile Pic. Consequently, our research has also inspired a new Fan Page on Facebook we created called Ridiculous FB Profile Pics. Check it out for a good laugh and post some good one’s that you’ve come across!
