Oh, the vanity of it all!  Yes, it was that kind of a weekend at the neighborhood block party.

There was more of the taking selfies activity going on that conversation.  Personally, I would rather not give selfie mania a thought, but would rather engage in conversation or game-playing.

True, it might be a nice memory for the photo album to include snaps of such festivities, but how much can one have?
