"Selfies are beautiful. After all, who wouldn't be excited about all those photographers, narcissistic artists who allow us to admire their beauty. But these self-obsessed individuals are in danger because of selfie sticks.”
This is exactly how the viral video of the American chain Pizza Hut begins in a free translation, which has taken a perfect shot from all lovers of selfie sticks. These allow narcissists to capture much more than just their face in one picture, so they can also show off where they are and with whom they spend their special moments.
But the chain aptly shows what it would be like if selfie sticks were used by everyone and especially everywhere - in the pool, at school, in the elevator, at a party or even while driving in a convertible. People want more and more. Bigger and longer selfie sticks, which leads to only one thing - disaster.
But Pizza Hut didn't just mock selfie stick fans, it also parodied alcohol ads. Indeed, their final advice "take selfies responsibly" alludes to the ad's warning: "drink responsibly."
