None of us know how she looks so it may and I will emphasise the word may be an improvement for her husband to look at this instead.

But does it still count as necrophilia?

Dunno really not thought zombies were real and presumed it was all made up, Mind you looking at the state of a few people on a Sunday morning round my way they may be real

I struggle with all this nonsense of taking photos of yourself at every available moment. And don't get me started about the duckface thing..... If I want to see what i look like I have some perfectly serviceable mirrors. Just smacks to me of total vanity...

A selfie doesn't offend me, it's the pretence of "im just doing whatever" but you just spend an hour trying to make it look that way!?!

I can cope with people's umptuous selfies a lot more than I can cope with people who upload pictures of every single thing they eat. I went to dinner with my sister and her food went cold by the time she'd taken a picture. I almost backhanded her when she asked what filter she should put on it.

the first time I saw a 'selfie stick' was at a work dinner and dance. It was a guy walking around the dance floor with one - I thought he was trying to film up peoples skirts until I was him use it take selfies on the dance floor!

I think the appropriate response is to comment on the photo "U always look so bootiful wivout makeup babes #natural beauty #next top model #relaxing wit ma bae"

I think my young four year old relative got it right when she said 'Come on mum, take a selfish'

She looked good in all of them, Im just unsure why she didnt think so!!

While I don't get the selfie thing at all - Ireckon that everyone thinks they look weird in photos. The only time you really see yourself is in the mirror or in a reflection (i.e. a "flipped" picture) so an actual photo doesn't look like you think you look. Much like people tend to think a recording doesn't sound like them (because you usually only hear your voice from the inside).

Just my theory

I have one but have never taken a picture of just me. Ever, I think.

But they're really good for group shots. Honestly!

They're also really good when you're on holiday somewhere awesome and you want a picture of you both in front of the super cool place and don't want to trust anyone with your device and want the photo to have the back ground in as well.
