With the rise of social networks, a new category has grown - traveling clichés. Surveys show that more than half the users of social networks get inspired for their holiday photos by a gallery of people with whom they share the status "friends". No wonder that a countless number of people kissing the Sphinx or holding an Egyptian pyramid or the Eiffel Tower at the tip are circulating on the internet. Apart from the absolutely necessary photos of served food in a restaurant it seems that every single tourist of Pisa took it as a personal goal to straighten the local leaning tower by pushing it back or supporting it. At the top of bad taste are views with unsightly bulky thighs in front or even those slender ones - absolutely must be shared. Among others are also photos of cocktails, selfies with sun glasses or those with pursed lips. According to the DailyMail one third of people on social networks have the tendency to block such profiles. So be carefull that you do not lose friends.
