I seriously couldn't care less about whether people get schwasted and do kegstands - but what is with the compulsive need to take pictures of it and post it online?

He has to make sure every pseudo-acquaintance they are connected to through facebook can see how cool and tough he is? And then need to post on SDN to let all of us nerds know that he is cool and tough enough to have pics of him doing kegstands on his fb.

If you ever want a good job a lot of my friends in the business world tell me that several people got rejected internship / full time job offers because of what the company found on their facebook (pictures, statuses etc, even if it was on private) a lot of companies / admissions boards are using facebook to their advantage now. and I assume that this holds true for med school apps as well

If you look around on google you will find out that employers can pay facebook to unlock your facebook profile for them. This is why i deleted my account i now have nothing to worry about and don't have to see news feeds with (a) horrible grammar (b) drunk pics of people looking like ******s (c) people wasting entire day playing farm vile. (d) all of the above.

"So what do you possess over generic applicant X?"
"Well, sir, I consider myself an athlete. If you take a look at this, you'll notice my form is superb, the splash is minimal, and the fist pumps are at maximum."

See, it's not so much about the fact that you drink and party with your friends. It's about the fact that you're not socially savvy enough to hide those pictures from the public eye.

Who doesn't have a private Facebook?

I have nearly 1000 pictures, and if I were to untag all the drunken ones, I think I'd have maybe 200? But my profile is entirely private, you can't even search for me. FB is for me and my friends to stay in touch, it's hardly "the public eye".

You're right. I must've forgotten that everyone outside of the college world finds keggers totally awesome and will respect you for posting your TOTALLY RAD, BRAH pictures in public.

But then again I can only fantasize about a woman's touch because I just spend all day studying, so what do I know.

lol

Here's at least 17 that don't have a private FB http://www.businessinsider.com/facebook-fired-2011-5 . Honestly, I don't, either, but I keep the negative crap off of it, too.

A standard kegstand is pretty meh, and not really worth a picture. Now, an unassisted kegstand or bench pressing the keg at the time would be more picture-worthy.

Do I need to remove pictures of me pounding beers and doing kegstands from Facebook?

Nah. It shows med schools that you have a social side.

Hold the keg with one hand on top, shotgun that keg, '"I mean really bite into that metal", and bam, you might have rivaled the most interesting man in the world.
