Why not celebrate the yawning chasm between the haves and have-nots with a selfie?
Well, because it would make you a horrible human being.
But since when has that ever stopped the self-smothering hordes of youth from taking up a dubious trend with gleeful abandon?

Of course, being humiliated over the internet wouldn't be the first degradation homeless people have endured -- particularly in a society that has hunted them for sport, set them on fire and simply pretended they don't exist.

YOLO.
