A year and a half ago my girlfriend and I were in Istanbul on vacation. One day we were on a boat on the Bosporus and observed a family that I will guess was Indonesian, or maybe Malaysian. They appeared to have plenty of money, very turned-out, mom and dad in their 50s and a pair of daughters (I'd guess) in their 20s, with carry-on wheelie bags (?!) It was a beautiful setting with more to soak in than you could manage, and these two women spent the entire trip taking selfies, co-selfies, pictures of each other. All more or less the same. We found this endlessly amusing and bizzarre.

I once took a single selfie for some reason I've long forgotten and would probably find a bit silly if I remembered it. My girlfriend, who will never take a selfie in her life, found it on my camera once and spent a long time teasing me for it. We are 41 and 40.
