Why the Flash?

I'm not feeling so well today, so I thought I'd focus today's batch of self-pics on a batch that I find arousing but annoying.  Why do some guys insist on using a flash when they don't need to?  Is it that they don't know how to turn the flash off?  Or are they hoping that the flash will block out their face?  Or are they just stupid?  Either way, the annoying light flare on the photo really takes away from their amazing bodies.  And of course, you might recognize the guy in the first three pics as Abe Minkler - a 19 year old super stud that I featured earlier this year who I fantasize about constantly.
