[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you do know there is such a thing as "Happiness Inflation" on social media like Facebook. No one ever posts about the huge argument they just had or how miserable their holiday really was. They save those posts for an anonymous forum like DCUM.  Folks tend to project a happier version of their life to the world on social media. So the next time you're reading on FB about how fabulous all your friends' lives seem to be, take it with a huge grain of salt. [/quote]

There is also just different personalities. I am 12:21, one of the people with a boring, serious family. I have been to many other events at friends houses that are far more fun and where people don't just sit around serious and boring, having discussions about serious topics. There actually are lots of people who are fun. And my family would never even ham it up to get the fake goofy pics to create  'happiness inflation'. It actually isn't that my family isn't happy, they are just boring and serious when happy.[/quote]
