Hey selfie lovers, check out these 15 worst times and places to take a selfie!
Selfies have taken over the world. Although at first, we looked at them as something that is a temporary trend and will fade away (planking, we still think of you), selfies popularity is becoming stronger with each passing day. In 2013 Oxford English Dictionary announced that “selfie” is the “Word of The Year” and caught us all by surprise.
The main reason for selfies popularity is social media. Before, people didn’t have the need to take pictures of themselves by themselves, because there was not that many popular platforms to post it on. Also, people spend time together much often, so there was always someone who could take a picture. With My Space, Facebook, and Instagram came the perfect excuse to indulge in this narcissist activity called selfie.
