What in the world is the term "selfie" mean? A selfie is the modern day term word for taking a picture of yourself, yeah, simply just taking a picture to possibly post on social media or just share on the internet. There are many different versions of this "selfie" post the ways including everything from those little kittens to hot models and their "fish lips," that's where a guy or girl takes a close-up of their mouth posing as a fish. It can be hot, or it just could also be creepy.

SELFIES LINKED TO NARCISSISM, ADDICTION AND MENTAL ILLNESS

The bigger picture is because in 2016 smartphones are all the rage and everyone seems to have a phone. These new phones give you a chance to take a zillion pics a day and post them freely. Health officials have been gathering data on the effects of these "selfie" pro's and their feelings towards this new hobby.

Some feel sad if their selfies don't get as many views as they wish. Some feel that a bad "selfie" makes their day just that much worse. Taking selfies and then posting, and then regretting that post can also be a problem. You might want to delete or just hide that post, but it might be too late. Also, the Oxford English Dictionary in 2013 named "selfie" as the Word Of The Year, which gives credibility to this hobby.

Hence the title of this paragraph, a "tale of selfies" is due to the fact that when "selfies" became a great thing, in that, we were exposed to many, many, many hot woman and men across the world, that the downside may have been that this gave way to those who wanted to be like these superstars, and posted selfies themselves. It's not that they're ugly or things like that. It was more of ability to perfect a selfie pic of themselves and just can't make this happen. The great selfies are done with lighting and angles, whereas an average smartphone pic might not give that "magic" of a great pic. Either way, this has become a reality in this world. If done right, you could have a great selfie.
