What's bad about group fotos? To remember stuff and so on.

Anyway, I'd not invest and try to change this group. Just start out differently with people who are less inclined to this ironic banter.

PS: I also have some ironic circles. I think in my case (and I think the idea extends) this style of conversation is done to keep the (externally defined) power of different people on the same level.
Otherwise the group would break apart right there. I figure this is the reason old circles of friends wall into some kind of mode where the roles and expected talk is completely predictable - it arises because people grow away from each other with their lives. They then search for a common denominator and the rest is talked about by keeping a distance, not to offend anyone in the group.
If 2 people in a group of 5 make good money, or if one of them gets lots of pussy and another one is a virgin, they will all have to censor themselves or mask their inferiority with ironic acknowledgement that shields off that they feel bad about themselves.
