The No More Selfies Shirt by Reason Clothing bans a favorite millennial pastime.
If the aggressive onslaught of selfies posted on social media every single day is taking its toll on you mentally, physically and emotionally, then I say you reserve the right to express your frustration with this hilarious t-shirt.
Look, no one is decrying the act of self-love; and at the very least, you should be allowed to document your good hair days (because Lord knows they're rare). However, is it really necessary for you to cover everyone's newsfeed with a barrage of photographs of you, in variations of the same. Exact. Pose? Have mercy on your fellow human beings and stop the madness, stop the selfies.
