99% percent of the time, selfies end up as dull reminders of someone’s narcissism. The other times though, something wonderful happens that transforms the mundane into the maniacal. Today, we celebrate those moments when selfies went hilariously wrong.

#1 Selfie Drive-By
When you're taking selfies you've got to have attitude. This girl's definitely got attitude! Just check out the deuces she's throwing up and her duck lips, which are on full display. Also, when you're taking selfies, you've got to make sure you're closely monitoring what's going on behind you. In the case of this selfie, it would appear that some nice young fella' driving by decided to throw up some hand signals of his own.
#2 Mirrors Reflect Absolutely
The main culprit behind selfies that go horribly wrong are mirrors. People seem to not pay much attention to what they're reflecting, especially when the mirror in question is reflecting what another mirror is reflecting. Unfortunately for the participants in this selfie, they happened to catch their friend sitting upon the porcelain throne. Remember, kids: Be very careful when there are multiple mirrors in play!

#3 Clear the Area!
Unless you're not taking your selfies from a really close angle, you're necessarily going to include some of your surroundings in the picture. That's why it's so important to make sure that you clear the area of anything that might be considered embarrassing. Did you not notice what's going on in this selfie yet? Well, then take a look at the countertop. Notice anything next to the watch? Oops!
#4 Watch Out For Mom
It's like Will Smith and DJ Jazzy Jeff said way back in the day before Will Smith was the "movie star" you know him as today: "Parents just don't understand." This is an important concept to remember when you're snapping your selfies. You might be trying to send a sexy Miley Cyrus style selfie to that the guy you have a totally major crush on only to have mom appear in the doorway with her disapproving stare. Now what've you got?

#5 Watch Out For Kids, Too
Mom and dad aren't the only people you have to worry about when you're snapping your sexy selfies in the bathroom. You've got to watch out for kids around the house, too. We're sure that whoever was supposed to have received this suggestive selfie would've really enjoyed it. But, the presence of that small child in the background really kind of ruins everything, doesn't it?

#6 Who Watches the Watchmen?
You're distracted when you're trying to take a selfie. You're watching the screen intently, trying to make sure that you catch yourself at the perfect, most flattering angle. Because of this, you may not always be paying attention to your surroundings. When this happens, you might get caught taking your selfie by someone who happens to be walking by. The person that you see up above learned this lesson the hard way.

#7 Don’t Look Like An Bunghole
You know, scratch everything that we said before. Seriously. Who cares? They're your selfies anyway, aren't they? Who are we to tell you what you should or shouldn't do? The girl, who has not been identified, was among several people who came to check out a copper shark that washed up on Marcoola Beach, north of Brisbane.
