Mirrors will forever be the greatest enemy to the selfie. Even when they don't show anything embarrassing, they're still a bad thing to include in a photo. They just make the viewer lose focus on what they should be looking at. Remember folks, take a second to stop looking at your face to make sure that there isn't something embarrassing in frame. I know you want to get your pouty lips just right, but no one will care about how you look when they see something stupid behind you.
In this case, this guy's mirror made him play himself. He wanted everyone to feel like he had someone who loved him and wanted to take pictures of him. That's not the case. All he has is a pair of feet that he can control very well.
