    All the kids are talking about it.

    Surely you can easily attach a photo with Viber or WhatsApp or Facebook, why do people bother with it?

    To try and get girls to send you dirty pictures, under the guise of "sure it only shows for 10 seconds then it dissapears, I can't save it, no one will know." etc. etc.

    Meanwhile...

    One of the 3rd party apps or sites for it has been hacked and the photos are being leaked at the moment. Turns out the photos were being saved rather than deleted when using it.

    Did you know that snap chat was created by the same person who invested the old Nokia mobile game snake?

    Now why exactly would I do that? You have to hold one thumb down on the pic, and awkwardly try and take a screenshot in the limited time you have to view the photo. The app does all that for you.

    It's for those people who need to capture and share a special moment in an instant. It's for those moments that words cannot explain the full beauty of and time diminishes it's beauty so it need to be shared with loved ones straight away. After all, nothing truly captures the passion and rush of emotion you get when you receive a snapchat of someone taking a shít.

    The brilliant thing about snapchat is that the photo only exists for a small amount of time and then it is gone forever..... However, not completely wowed by this concept, someone developed a means of storing photos so that you could view them at a later stage, almost like a regular photo(actually, exactly like a regular photo). And yet people will be shocked when they realise this!

    to put it simply all the social bs is bypassed. no longer so you have to make an effort with anyone. its great to get a wide variety of material to have "fun" with. there is literately no need to go out and meet a girl ever again. snapchat makes dating marriage and meeting a girl obsolete. in effect snapchat serves the same funtion for men as a dildo does for women.

    Snapchat is for boobies!

    The point of snapchat? So under-agers can send each other tit-pics.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    To only reason to be on snapchat is to make sure you aren't the subject of said snapchats.

    So, 13 year old Jayden tries to get classmate Ella-Mae to send a cheeky pic of her double A's using this new Snap Chat yoke? And young Ella-Mae just might be talked round because 'Ah sure it only lasts a couple of seconds then it's gone' (a description that could well be used again later on in the relationship). While unbeknownst to little Ella-Mae, Jayden has the means to keep this picture and share it around with his mates Hayden, Brayden and Aiden?

    Do the young people these days not realise that there's porn?

    The point of snapchat was to develop a company to sell it way overpriced to Mark Zuckerberg/Facebook for like$19 billion.

    Now Mark has a large photo album of porn...

    snap chat gives a false sense of privacy

    You can take a pic of yer bollix and send it to a young one.

    Then someone can hack there servers and steal the pics because everything has to be saved somewhere.
