Summer weather's heating up, which means we can be sure of one thing: That high school girls everywhere are having some bullsh*t encounters over their school's dress code.

Somewhere, there is an alternate universe where what defines a badass action star is not violence, or their weapons, but their ability to take a quality self-portrait on their phones mid-battle. Check out The WOW Report, where they have a bunch of classic action stars wielding selfie sticks instead of guns. Because no alien attack should get in the way of a good photo.
