How is me taking a picture of my pet a “selfie”?
This gadget was invented by Nick Miller in an episode of New Girl.
At last, something useful on the BB Store.
Better pet portraits are a clip away.

Offering pet several hits of acid for photo.
Here to pile on: IF THE PET AIN’T TAKING IT, IT AIN’T A SELFIE.
Not just for pets - I know of a few humans for whom, if you don’t wave something shiny at them, you aren’t going to get their attention long enough to get a decent picture.
And there was me about to comment that surely this blog post was pure parody.
It is, isn’t it?
Isn’t it?
(Insert some sort of despair gif)
Yep - that’ll do.
Nice one.
Children being imprisoned at the border and we’re buying pet selfie sticks?
I’ve just discovered that doing an image search for “pet selfie” is a great source of amusement. There’s something particularly adorable about close-up photos of pets that have been posed as if they took the picture. I don’t know why.
Google Images, here I come! Unicorn Chasers are on Shuck today! (Kind of appropriate, as a “Shuck” is a monstrous black dog from folklore).
Edit: Much giggling ensued. Thank you.
To be fair, children are being imprisoned at the border and you’re spending your time on an internet blog comment section about pet selfie sticks.
Yes, hence the first person plural.
If you only had one hand I could see this being useful…
Would be nice to see Boing Boing call out these stupid things and refuse to sell them. Have you no souls?
