Apparently you don't care what anybody thinks about your posts, that's why you keep posting in your increasingly infamous, prolific, nonsensical style.
Actually in many cultures, once the actual service is done, you're suppose to party and have fun to celebrate the life of the deceased.

this is only a piece of the puzzle. http://www.policymic.com/articles/76375/8-photos-you-didn-t-see-from-obama-s-trip-to-south-africa
Networking with foreign leaders is both a diplomatically necessary exercise and an acceptable social perk of being President. Separately I think shoe-horning pop-culture terminology into world events to make them seem more relatable is patronizing and uninformative.
I personally got a chuckle out of those pics, they are pretty funny. Anyway figured it was all taken out of context. http://www.today.com/news/first-lady-not-peeved-says-photographer-who-caught-obama-selfie-2d11723566 First lady not peeved, says photographer who caught the Obama selfie The photographer who captured the picture of President Barack Obama posing for a selfie during Nelson Mandela’s memorial wants to set the record straight. First, the president really didn’t commit a funeral faux pas by posing for the selfie, the photographer said. And second, the first lady wasn’t as annoyed as she looked. “Photos can lie,” AFP photographer Roberto Schmidt wrote in a blog post, “The story behind ‘the selfie.’” Schmidt took the photograph of Obama smiling Tuesday for a self-portrait along with British Prime Minister David Cameron and Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning Schmidt, who took the picture with her smartphone. Although other photos showed First Lady Michelle Obama looking peeved over the display, “in reality just a few seconds earlier the first lady was herself joking with those around her, Cameron and Schmidt included,” the photographer said. “Her stern look was captured by chance,” he said. Many in the media, and online, had interpreted that “stern look” to mean disapproval of the president’s lighthearted behavior at a historic occasion. Schmidt addressed that, too. When the Danish prime minister took out her mobile phone and took a photo of herself smiling with Obama and Cameron, she did so in a celebratory environment, he said. “All around me in the stadium, South Africans were dancing, singing and laughing to honour their departed leader. It was more like a carnival atmosphere, not at all morbid,” Schmidt said. “The ceremony had already gone on for two hours and would last another two. The atmosphere was totally relaxed — I didn’t see anything shocking in my viewfinder, president of the U.S. or not. We are in Africa.” Schmidt said he doubts anyone could have “remained totally stony faced” for the entire memorial, especially as thousands of people celebrated in the South African stadium where it took place. “For me, the behaviour of these leaders in snapping a selfie seems perfectly natural,” he said.
