No, I'm not a fan of the selfie. Some may even call me a selfie-Scrooge, but in any case, there are some locations where a person should never take a selfie.
Take a recent story I read about five burglary suspects in California.
Ed Mazza of The Huffington Post reported the following about the incident:
"An alleged burglar keeping watch outside a California home while her pals ransacked and robbed the place took a moment to snap a selfie, the Los Angeles Police Department said.
Here's the raw video taken from one of the surveillance cameras at the home and posted on YouTube by the LAPD."
Yes, that actually happened, and can be found at this link:

On that note, here are the top ten times when you shouldn't take a selfie:
10. While reading the book, I'm Too Confident For Selfies
9. While jumping over a hurdle at the Olympics
8. After taking the snap from center on an all-out blitz by the defense
7. While not wearing a mask and robbing a bank
6. When drinking two beers simultaneously
5. When doing the monkey bars at a playground
4. After just getting out of cold water at a nude beach (guys especially)
3. During a dance on you and your partner's anniversary while "your" song "Unchained Melody" is playing
2. When cleaning a loaded gun which is pointed directly at you
1. (drum roll) While going in reverse down the interstate
