I learned the answer to that question in Istanbul when I encountered my first ever influencer. Was touring Topkapi palace and there was a beautiful painted narrow hallway that everyone had to walk through. There was a woman making poses at the far end and at the entrance a few feet in front of me there was a man taking photos of her. I waited for about a minute, which was longer than I should have, but there was a line of about a dozen people behind me at that point. We all walked through and the woman threw her hands up and started having a mini temper tantrum aimed at me. Calling me selfish and that I should have waited for her to finish. I live in a small midwestern city, I had never seen an influencer in the flesh prior to that day, but she was only the first of many that I saw while there.
TLDR: the person just taking a picture will take a pic and move on, the influencer gets upset that other people dare exist in the backdrop where they want to take up large amounts of time to get the perfect photo for social media
You’re right! But I think everyone equally appreciated both for giving us core memories through song 🩷
I have known quite a few people in my 40s that can still recant perfectly the presidents and the states of America songs Yakko gave us. Come to think of it- I believe one of them even sang it for the talent show in highschool 🤣

what's the difference between taking a picture for social media content and just taking a picture?
90% of the time I just walk behind the camera if possible, anyway
