selfie

Bonny and Clyde, they ain't.

A couple of very smart people bragged about their Aug. 24 Asheville, Ohio bank robbery by posting pictures on social media with the wads of cash they took from the bank tellers.

This is obviously not a smart idea.

According to Sostre News:

Police were helped in their investigation by the clear images showing John Mogan and Ashley Duboe hamming it up with their fortune in greenbacks. Four days after the robbery, they began posting photos of their loot, and one friend complained that Mogan " didn't hook a brother up."

Mogan and Duboe were arrested this week for the August 24 robbery. Police say they gave a note to the teller in the Ashville bank, and walked out with a tall stack of bills. He looks nervous on the surveillance video, but in the days after the heist, they both looked gleeful on their Facebook postings.

Apparently, Morgan had just gotten out of state prison for an earlier bank robbery. He put on make up to disguise his face and neck tattoos. But sadly, nothing could disguise his stupidity.

Put the selfie stick down.

There have been a lot of global deaths this year connected with selfies. And with the death of a 66-year-old Japanese tourist trying to get a picture of himself at the Taj Mahal, it brings up a whole lot of questions about why we are risking our lives to get these snapshots.

The Guardian had compiled some of the stories behind these unfortunate deaths in trying to answer the larger question of 'why?'.

The incident now takes the death toll of officially recorded selfie-related deaths to 12. Previous incidents this year include a man who was gored to death taking a picture during a bull run in a Spanish town, and two men who accidentally blew themselves up in the Russian Ural mountains when posing with a live grenade. The picture was discovered saved to the camera roll on one of the men's phones.

Other selfie related deaths this year in Russia alone include a 21-year-old woman in Moscow who shot herself in the head while pointing a 9mm pistol at her temple, another who reportedly fell from a bridge and a teenager in Ryazan who died when coming into contact with live wires while snapping a portrait near to railway tracks.

What the hell is happening?



Why can't you people control yourselves?



Keep it together, world.

Emily Musson and her boyfriend love taking selfies. Emily's parents love making fun of them.

Musson got in the habit of regularly uploading pictures like the following, showcasing the couples photogenic-ness.

She then shared an album of them on Facebook, because that's what Facebook's for.



Her parents immediately started trolling.



It was incredible.





Musson posted it to Twitter and it's currently sitting at almost 50,000 retweets, because people like good stuff.

It took 19 years, but the most epic golf selfie ever has finally happened.

Actor Christopher McDonald, know for his role as golf pro Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore, posed for a selfie today with real-life golf pro Tiger Woods.

The duo were both watching some tennis at the U.S. Open when McDonald saw the perfect opportunity for this amazing picture.

Hole in one for McGavin! Pew, pew, pew!

First our sticks, and now our coffee beverages. There is no stopping the #selfie.

YouTuber Megan Bowen lives in South Korea and vlogs regularly about the food, entertainment and culture of this interesting part of the world.

In her latest video, Megan takes viewers on a tour of a cafe that prints selfies on edible lattes. The cafe is called "CaFace," which is just almost too clever.

First the selfie...

And then it's time to destroy your face...

Never change, South Korea. Never change.

William Shatner put out a call to action from all the Trekkies in the world Aug. 1, asking them to take a selfie of Spock's famous salute.

I need everyone's help. Take a selfie of you doing the LLAP sign and email the photo to NIMOYTribute@gmail.com pic.twitter.com/b2gTMftn7J

He didn't say what it was for, only that it would be a tribute to the Leonard Nimoy, six months after the actor's death.

Shatner also spoke out on his Who Say page asking for the same thing, without giving a hint as to what he would do with the collection of photos.

On the evening of Aug. 9, he shared what because of all the fan selfies:

Why did I ask for all those #LLAP selfies? For a @gishwhes task as a tribute to Leonard. Thank you! pic.twitter.com/3NQZ5siINe

The mosaic uses over 6,000 selfies from fans throughout the globe, honoring the late Mr. Nimoy with the 'Live Long and Prosper' salute.

The tribute was also done for the charitable scavenger hunt organization Gishwhes, which is run by Supernatural actor Misha Collins.

Additionally, Shatner tweeted that the mosaic had been submitted for a Guinness World Record. He didn't specify which one, exactly. Most selfie Spock? Best Leonard Nimoy tribute? Most feels on a Monday?

Regardless, it's great.

Wait for it… the singing isn’t the only thing that blows.

Four friends were having the time of their lives on a little road trip singing Player’s “Baby Come Back,” when one of the tires exploded ruining everything.

Fortunately no one was hurt, but they appear to be a bit shaken up by the incident.

And despite the selfie stick disaster causing the camera to spiral out of control, they still managed to get their 15 minutes of fame on YouTube.

Phew!

“We’re not posting that video,” one of the girls says at the end.

Famous last words.

It may be the "Year of the Selfie" but a certain Decepticon is having none of it.

In an epic rant with a girl a Universal Studios, Megatron perfectly sums up everything that is wrong with social media and a generation of people addicted to their phones.

"You will not receive a selfie so long as you stand before me with your ridiculous furred hoodie!" he says. "When will you learn that your status updates mean zero-to-nothing to anyone, ever! It doesn't matter which social network you post it on. Worthless! Use your mind. Create new memories. Interact."

Truer words have never been spoken.

Looks like Miley found someplace to put that crazy, dangling tongue of hers.

Here she is taking a makeout selfie with Arnold Schwarzenegger's son at a University of Southern California football Thursday night in LA.

Before there were iPhones, there were paint brushes.

Now, Olivia Muus, a designer and marketer from Denmark, has merged the two types of media into something new entirely: the portrait selfie.

Surely, this was the original artist's intent.
