Still Waters Posted March 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Taking funny selfies takes some imagination and creativity, but trying too hard can lead to unexpected results. Thus, in one such attempt to take a pic of himself, a student broke a 19th century statue in Italy’s Brera Academy. http://rt.com/news/i...ent-statue-845/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldethyl Posted March 20, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2014 What a goon. He's lucky that was a copy. I wish kids would get an electric shock every time they took a selfie. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplos Posted March 21, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Indicative of the "I'm more important than anything else and I can do what I want" mentality I see with a lot of young people these days. Probably stems from the "nobody loses, everyone gets a gold star" bs in school and sports etc. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted March 21, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I thought I was having deja vu reading the OP but I was merely confused cos of this previous news item... http://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=252429 The Italian museum authorities must be getting heartily sick of idiots.

I'm 34 now and when I look back when I was 16, I can't believe how much of an idiot I was at times. If I could go back in time, I'd punch my 16 year old self in the face.

Purplos Posted March 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 21, 2014 It's just a phase most teenagers go through. I don't know.... At the risk of sounding like an old hen, not when I was growing up. We went on trips to museums and such and none of the kids were climbing on statues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amaterasu Posted March 21, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I don't know.... At the risk of sounding like an old hen, not when I was growing up. We went on trips to museums and such and none of the kids were climbing on statues. I don't remember this sort of behaviour either but I'm older than you, I would have been petrified of being reprimanded or getting a clip round the earhole if I put a foot out of line in a museum/art gallery/establishment where a modicum of decorum is required. This selfie crap <channels old biddy self> is a facebook phenomenon ...look at meee - I'm bonkers I am!! .....which translates to me as 'I have a really dull existence but I want you all to think I'm really popular and funny. Dull as a wooden spoon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orcseeker Posted March 22, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I'm 21 and I've never taken a selfie in my life. Some people have forced me into their own selfie but I've never gotten a pic, taken it and published it to any medium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
