自拍桌游――享受自拍者的圣诞礼物

Whether on a night out with friends, stuck in a traffic jam or at the airport ready to go on holiday, someone is always at the ready with their phone, capturing the moment for Facebook or Instagram.

无论是晚上和朋友约会,还是外出堵在路上,甚至是在候机前往度假地时,总会有人拿着手机,时刻准备自拍,然后发图分享或者上传到脸书。
 
Kim Kardashian loves them so much that she is compiling a book of her best ones and one of the biggest moments of the 2014 Oscars was the selfie Ellen Degeneres took with Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, Brad Pitt, Lupita Nyong'o and Meryl Streep.
 
Now, the perfect Christmas toy has arrived for those who like the sight of their own face the most - the selfie board game.
 
The game is now on sale in Toys Are Us for $14.99.
 
The product description says: 'What does your selfie say about you? Draw a card, take a selfie, then watch as your friends and family guess your expression.
 
'The favorite guess gets a point and the player with the most points at the end wins. Make a silly face and SAY CHEESE because today is the day to express your #selfie!'
 
Descriptions include: 'You met your one true love,' 'you have something in your teeth,' and 'you came home to a surprise party.'
 
People can take their selfie either using the fake phone photo frame that comes provided or their own camera phone.
 
There have been mixed reviews about the board game though.
 
Azan Kung tweeted: 'Looks like our socially acceptable narcissism has hit really hit its consumerist stride.
 
Another person commented: 'Humankind: doomed.'
 
But one of the first reviews for the game online sheds it in a positive light, declaring that every player involved was in fits of giggles throughout.
