Usually self-aggrandizing titles, titles revolving around someone exceptionally fortunate, people with partners, people with a happy life, selfie threads etc

I'm so cynical and often view things as people trying to massage their egos (probably rightly). I view it as animalistic (probably to make myself feel better and "superior" in a delusional sense). I hide these threads and ignore it in my mind (the best I can) because I fear my emotional reaction to the topic, because of my internal comparison between subject and myself. 

I'm not in a great situation right now (typical NEET, and even worse - a male NEET, supported by parents, stagnating, lost looks due to being unfit/out of shape (healthy weight but just lost natural muscle mass), really lost in regards to life direction, fearing people and muddled. The emotional shielding I previously derived from superficial things such as looks, in-shape, "cool" friends I no longer have, I have watched my life slide out of my control. Presumably this loss of shielding is due to having derived self-validation and identity from and through others, and now that I'm no longer in a university scenario (sans degree) and without the necessary assets (looks, "faked confidence" etc) I don't have the opportunity anyway. 

But yeah, previously I wouldn't have been "set off" by these sorts of posts so much, in my mind I probably would have compared myself favorably to the self-ego-massaging, perhaps validating myself through doing so, but now in a worse scenario I hate the idea of it being present in my mind, causing more internal conflict, and rumination about my own self-worth (or lack thereof). It's the same reason why I deleted facebook, it's just people trying to massage their egos.
