Before twerking, there were selfies. Why have someone else take a photo of you when you can take it yourself? And sure you might as well pucker your lips or pull another "hilarious" face while you're at it.
The Tumblr blog Selfies at Serious Places takes the phenomenon one step closer to crazy. Rather than taking selfies at home or with friends, the blog documents selfies taken in really, really inappropriate places.
Like next to a house fire

Near a homeless bum

At the 9/11 memorial

Beside the Berlin Wall

At your grandmother's funeral

In Chernobyl

At the Holocaust Memorial
