Kimye it!

Would any selfie featuring an APUGger be a puggie?

Have you guys heard of the 'bookshelfie'?

Does this require multiple people to be all sitting on bookshelves in a group selfie? sounds bizarre...

Yeah, that's bizarre. Since bookshelves can't take pictures of themselves, we have to help them. Decorate them as you see fit.

Alternatively a "pugshot".

Late to the party but people have been doing selfies for as long as there have been people. They would have been called something, no matter what that something was.

According to The Guardian, selfies have ''jumped the shark''. Are those fishies I wonder?

Is the selfie allowing celebrities to promote themselves without the need of agents and photographers?

I'm not sure it would have taken off. The 'selfie' is made to put on Facebook or whatever, it often it's to say 'look how good I look'. I think narcissism is often a quick, instinctive thing, and does not suit waiting to finish the roll, sending it off to get developed etc.

I'm sure some people must have taken pictures of themselves on film looking great, waited to process the roll and then showed the prints to friends down the pub. Maybe not great enough numbers for it have been given a name though.

Narcissism at its finest. Watch out for the selfie sticks, the abusers wack the heads of the people around them.
