Selfie. That's the word of the year according to the Oxford English Dictionary. And that's what this picture is. Here's the definition.

Selfie: A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website.

A few words that were runners-up for word of the year:

Binge-watch: Watching multiple episodes of a TV program in rapid succession. Usually by means of DVD. I've done this. I just didn't know it had a name other than lazy.

Showrooming: Visiting a shop in order to examine a product before buying it online at a lower price. I haven't done this. Mostly because I didn't think of it first.

Twerk: See Miley Cyrus.
