We've reached peak obnoxiousness at CES, making us all crave the days of Motorola Razr flip phones.

While we expected to see drones aplenty at the electronics show in Las Vegas, and were fully prepared for the selfie stick inundation, we couldn't possibly have braced for this breach in respectable human conduct.

Here, a man is so confused by the original function of his phone that he took a call while still attached to the selfie stick.

In history books, this will henceforth be known as the Day the Soul of the Human Race Was Replaced With a Hologram. This is the Day Children Stopped Laughing and also the Day Angels Lost Their Wings.

This is the Day the Selfie Stick Won.

I smacked three drones out of the air with my selfie stick. And you said they were stupid. #CES2015— Roberto Baldwin (@strngwys) January 5, 2015
