I went to Valencia, Spain over Memorial Day weekend.
After the jamón ibérico, guess what my best purchase was?
Yep, you nailed it: A selfie-stick!
When my wife went into a shop to buy some cheap sunglasses, I spent 5 euros on my very first ever selfie-stick.
The people I was with were totally embarrassed. Maybe even a little mad. You can tell in my first ever selfie-stick photo. Just look at Dan's eyes.

A man hates my selfie-stick.
I didn't care. You know why? Because the selfie-stick was awesome!
I was very happy with my new purchase.

The best part of a selfie-stick? They are so absurd, that by the end of the night, even the haters have to smile.
