    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    I was thinking about joining and was just wondering if you are allowed to post pictures of shit. I took a massive dump this morning, I nearly had to lower it with a rope. I would have loved to share a picture of it. Please advise.

    OMG...are you my husband in disguise??? :rofl: He would so do that! You can pretty much post a pick of anything, but other people can flag it if they think it inappropriate...and then it's up to IG to decide if you actually violated any policies...honestly I don't think that would...as disgusting as it is... :lol:

    WH I think Instagram is actually kind of better for people who have had issues with fb/twitter in the past. Usually I see people deleting their accounts because of drama they get wrapped up in and/or issues with people stalking them. Instagram is just pictures and captions/comments. You can set your account 'private' so that you have to approve anyone who requests to follow you. There's no PMs.

    You can DM or Direct Message people...yes/no?

    I know you can block people and report them as well.

    I'm going to start an account. I've been meaning too but just haven't had the time. Being that I'm off all week I will for sure.

    I'm bummed not too many people on Pinterest. I LOVE pintrest. Plan on doing a few PJ inspired crafty/artsy stuff this week too.

    Yeah...you can send a pic to people you are friends with on there...but I think you have to be friends so you shouldn't have to worry about people you don't want bothering you doing it...

    Wow that is graphic :fearful:
    It would make a change from the usual pics of food & people's kids though I guess!
