How the hell did "selfie" end up being the word of the year? I weep for humanity. Today Oxford Dictionaries announces selfie as their international Word of the Year 2013. The Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year is a word or expression that has attracted a great deal of interest during the year to date.
