I don't use a selfie stick if there is someone around to take a picture of me. I have used them if I am out alone... or if I need to get higher, above the scene.

No I haven't, they've become a media joke. People use them and do a good job at times. Will you let those people stop you from using it in the future? You might miss some memorable pictures.

I LOVE my selfie stick.

It the very best alternative I have.

When I am kayaking the Weekie Watchee, that stick and my Go-Pro were born to allow me to see what's happening beneath the surface.

Maybe what I heard were the fishes, alligators, river otters, manatees and Anhinga's laughing in their underwater musical way.

Not in the sense that most people use them, however I won one awhile ago and have found that they do an amazing job stabalizing the iPhone camera when shooting video. They help take my marketing video to the next level. So maybe not a selfie stick but a video stick?
