    The National Gallery in London bans selfie sticks

    The fight back continues!

    And here, for the first time ever, I've been enjoying selfies ever since it was added to Warcraft...

      Hitler would also have banned selfie sticks.

        In which case, I would have given him a mulligan for that holocaust thing.

              Well done the National Gallery.

              Music venues should ban the use of phones to take photos and video too. I remember the good old days when you could see a band without the view being obstructed by rows of cretins with their damned phones in the air.

                Instead the view was obstructed by rows of cretins waving their lighters in the air.

                  That depended on the type of band. Lighters-in-the-air bands were never my genre.

                    At least then there was a chance of immolation...

                      And a lighter heating up and becoming uncomfortable to hold happens faster than phone batteries running out.

                        the selfie stick should be banned in all national parks.

                        Pictures in those areas are intended for the views of nature and not for them and their antics.

                          Selfie sticks are just the continuation of the long long tradition of annoying tourists. I don't see how they are more tacky than fanny packs for instance.
                          If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

                            Because people generally don't wave their fanny pack in your face?

                              i'm sure HC would kill for a bit of fanny in his face.
