But first, letmetakeaselfie 

1. Originating from the music video "#SELFIE" by Chainsmokers, "But first, letmetakeaselfie" is a popular saying used mostly on Vine. It is said right before one takes a selfie; usually taken before one is going to do something --probably something important and/or productive.

2. The most annoying saying ever used on social media, especially on Vine.

but first let me take a selfie 

Humanity has finally hit 100% retardedness. A son was actually made about taking a selfie. A girl is in a bathroom taking selfies and talking about boys and throwing up at any chance she can (probably because she balimic ) but that story is for another day. While her friend wants to get out of the bathroom she says "But first let me take a selfie" making her possibly a worse person than Adolf Hitler himself.
Hey shaniqua ?
Yesh babez ?

Want to go outside and get out of this brothel ?

Yesh, But first let me take a selfie !
Wow this girl is sooo ratchet.

Life's a bitch and then you die, but first you work at IVI 

An adaptation of the famous quote, by those who worked at IVI Travel
"Life's a bitch and then you die, but first you work at IVI" -- right, Walter.

The truth will set you free but first it’ll piss you off 

In the end it’s better to tell the truth despite what happens because at least you won’t have that burden.
“How am I gonna tell my mom I crashed her truck? She'll kill me!”

“Listen the truth will set you free but first it’ll piss you off. That’s apart of life.”
