Boundless Egocentrism: Young Americans Post Photos at Funerals

Anything goes for a like and to get attention? For some young Americans, self-centeredness in social networks really has no limits. The new fashion among them is to post photos on social networks, such as Instagram and Facebook, at funerals and burials.

Of course, the image is always accompanied by a phrase that shows nothing of a feeling of grief for the deceased or the family, revealing only the person's need to show himself to his friends or followers with the famous hashtags. And look how often the funeral in question is closely related, like grandparents and uncles. Worth until look of the day in front of the mirror!

To put together all these bizarre internet posts, even a special Tumblr called Selfies at Funerals was created, sometimes left over until a little tip for the dead himself appears.
