Chinventory is important. Take selfies from an angle that reduces the appearance of miscellaneous extra chins.10

My selfie game sux so I hardly every post any. I've got nothing.4

Make sure the toilet behind you has been flushed.17

Angles are also important. Hold the phone straight out in front of you or maybe in a way that highlights your best side. Don’t take selfies from directly overhead.1

Don't let anyone catch you taking a selfie.7

If taking a selfie with a friend, try to edge them out of the pic ever so slightly. If you can’t do that without being obvious, elbow them in the gut right as the pic is taken, thereby ensuring that you look better.5

Hmm. This is okay when there are two or more people present. Not ideal if alone. Better?1 -
Edit them to make yourself indistinguishable IRL.3
