Well, here’s more proof that the selfie epidemic is still running rampant.
President Barack Obama landed in Malaysia on Saturday, and by Sunday, he’d already taken a selfie with the nation’s Prime Minister, Najib Razak.
Najib tweeted the photo:
It’s kind of awkward, right? Well, what makes it even more awkward is the fact that just days before, during his visit to Seoul, Obama totally denied a 13-year-old girl a selfie of her own.
After the President spoke to U.S. troops in South Korea, he spotted the girl holding a sign that read, “Mr. President May I Have a Selfie With You?” He did not fulfill her request, so this selfie with Najib is some major salt in her emotional wounds.
