A belfie is a photographic self-portrait featuring the buttocks.
The worst thing about this word is that it might give people ideas - and, sadly, they're all going to be really really bad ones.
Sunday Rest: belfie. The b is for bottom or buttocks or bum, and the rest rhymes with selfie, which is a shortened form of self-portrait.
The Old English form of self is seolf.
