Selfie Stick- would you buy one?

[aggiebug]

H and I have most definitely looked into this. Some of the places we travel we don't want a random person holding our camera.

And we hike so it would be nice to have some shots of the 2 of us and no one is around.

I chose SS because I have no idea what they are... however, now that I've clicked the link... ummmm, no...

[cogdis]

Yes, especially now that we have a little on the way. We'd use it mostly hiking.

I voted SS because I would never buy one. However, my old bosses bought me one as a gift once. I threw it out when we were moving. I think I used it once and felt completely ridiculous.

Would I purchase one, no-- BUT.... My MIL purchased one for us for Christmas and we have been loving taking normal looking non-selfies! We are planning on taking it to the hospital. Judge away

To hit people with - Yes. I'm looking forward to being an old woman with a cane one day.

Probably. The further away you get from me-the better I look!

In theory they sound great, but when you see someone using it, it looks so silly. I'm going with SS, maybe...I am the one always behind the camera, so for every party, every family get together, I'm never in the pics. I'm torn on this.

1 point goes to proboards, we can change our poll responses. That would have come in handy with the belly button poll last month!

I have actually seen one used! It was like a train wreck I couldn't look away.

Someone I know got one as a joke and keeps posting photos of herself around chicago with her selfie stick. She's not usually taking selfies with it though, it's actually her with her selfie stick and someone has taken the photo. It's pretty funny. Although, I do get the useful aspect of it, as aggiebug mentioned.

I voted no because I wouldn't buy one for myself. However, I was gifted one at our company Christmas party, so I do have one. We've used it a couple of times. I don't really like it because you have to use it with the front camera (well you don't have to, but it's easier to see what you're doing) and that camera isn't good quality.

No I wouldn't buy one and no I don't think I'll ever use one. That said I got one for Christmas
(Ah thanks mom)it currently lives in my garages sale/ebay closet.
