Selfie. Ilness?


Here I’m gonna wright my attitude to this illness .A lot of people do selfies nowadays.
Wiki thinks that selfie is “ a self-portrait photograph, typically taken with a hand-held digital camera or camera phone. Selfies are often shared on social networking services such as Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. They are usually flattering and made to appear casual. Most selfies are taken with a camera held at arm's length or pointed at a mirror, rather than by using a self-timer.”
I have no problem with them. People try to act like they're too cool for selfies but to me, like anything else we post on social media etc, it depends on the contents of that selfie. There are instances where I question someone's judgement...
BUT there are so many instances where a selfie is awesome. I love a lot of selfies I see. In fact, I take them when I want to remind myself that I like what I see in the mirror sometimes. I take them because no-one else will, to prove that I was somewhere or doing something. I like seeing some of the humourous selfies taken by funny people - clever stuff. I like tourist selfies (as long as they let some of the background in). I love taking silly ones with friends.
I get sick of people making fun of the selfie and shaming those who are seen pouting into their camera phones. It's all a bit of fun. Some are better at it than others. Whatever.
But selfie became a serious illness because a lot of people do them a lot, wherever they are( in bathroom, bedroom, toilet, school…). I think, that making a lot of selfies (15-40 per day)is a disease.

Do you think that soon everybody will do selfies(from 6-old boy to 88-old woman)
