Ahahahaha, very well said!!
Given our interest in actual photography I think we are not very representative of the masses.
I hate selfies and I don't understand why most people, regardless of age, seem to enjoy taking them so much.
Mind you, my wife always wants us to take pictures of ourselves, but at least she values the inclusion of as much background as possible. Therefore, I use of a tripod (or drone) to include a large part of the scenery around us.
To me, this selfie fad is not very different from people taking pictures of their breakfast and posting them on FB or Instagram.
I feel the world is going more and more in the direction of what's depicted in the movie Idiocracy unfortunately...
