I'm increasingly aging into a curmedgeon, I'm aware of it and so I tend to "harumph" a lot about today's youth. So that said, I find selfies to be narcisitic nonsense. For all my life photos were about recording the places I've been and the people I cared about. I cherish those memories when I look through photo albums far more than any picture of myself. If there are pictured of me, I skip them unless I'm with someone else, then I look at them way more than I do at myself.

Nowadays people have a million pictures of themselves to look at. "Here I am at the park, look at my fabulous outfit." "Here I am in the hospital when my niece was born, wasn't my hair fantastic that day?" I feel like when they are old they will wonder why they didn't take more shots of their friends and loved ones and try to remember what they looked like. But at least they'll always have the memories of that amazing white purse they had that day.

How stupid can you be? Idiots all over the world have killed themselves taking selfies—falling off mountains, falling into the sea, falling into zoo enclosures of dangerous critters, etc.

You can tell prior to this incident her judgement was always flawless, as evidenced by the massive tattoos.

Just like that Australian tourist way back in 1994 who climbed over the guardrail to get a photo with Binky the polar bear at the Anchorage Zoo.
She got chewed a bit and her leg was broken - there was a famous photo of Binky with the idiot's sneaker in his mouth.

Jaguar eh!
The US Government decided to exterminate the Jaguars in the USA during the 40s. They used to be as plentiful as mountain lions, but the interior department put a hefty bounty on them and lots of GIs back from WW2 wiped them all out. Now we have several crack pot conservationists who want to re-introduce them.
Most of them were in New Mexico, Arizona, California and Texas, but they would occasionally be seen as far north and east as Pennsylvania and Western New York. Glad their gone. They were considered to be the strongest and most powerful big cat, even more so than tigers.

Annnnd there was someone getting the video, of course.

Did she get the selfie? That’s all that matters.

What's really important here, people, is whether the American or British pronunciation of the animal name is jaguar, or jag-u-are.

That way, she won't get confused about whether she was attached by an animal or a car.

That's how bloody stupid she is.

Yup. “Selfiecide.” Just one more of Nature’s innovative ways to cull the herd.

She got lucky. Jags are the most efficient feline predator. It musta been out of practice.
