Today, my dad stopped me mid-sentence and said he wanted to punch me in the face and set me on fire for using the word "selfie". FML

And then you take a selfie of you with him in the background, setting you on fire. All about that #selfie

He's right, you don't take selfie... you take "self portrait " !

I think I could get along with him

"Selfies" = narcissism at its finest. Also, this is not a "selfie", it's a picture of a hat in action. :-D

I just want to point out that using the word "selfie" is not the same thing as taking one. For example I just used the word, and I've hardly taken five selfies so far (jk).

he is right..selfie sounds like selfish...

"Selfies are bad hurr duurr" Its just a picture and gives people self confidence. You are not a better person for not taking selfies and hating on people who do. In fact that kind of makes you guys assholes.

Oops accidentally thumbed down sorry :( you're right no one seemed to be upset at the ideas of self portraits only when it started being seen as feminine I think

I completely agree with you. I don't understand why it bothers people that much. Hey if someone feels hot and wants to take a picture of themselves, damn let them, it's not affecting your life in any way. And it definitely doesn't mean they're conceited. There's a huge difference between having confidence and being overly confident

100% agree! I'm pro-selfie and pro-loving yourself. It shows how sad people are when they get their panties in a bunch about others being happy with how they look.

YDI. You should say 'self-portrait'.
