Erie book clubbers ponder Word of the Year

Marilyn Presor knows what a selfie is, but said her arms are too short to take a good one.

Presor, 79, said she learned about the 2013 Word of the Year while watching the Today Show Tuesday morning. A selfie is a self-portrait, usually taken with a smart phone and posted over social networks like Facebook.

"I don't have a smart phone," said Presor, who lives in Millcreek Township. "I did, but I gave it to my son because it was too complicated."

Presor and other members of LifeWorks Erie's Tuesday Book Club were asked about selfie and two other finalists for the Oxford University Press' Word of the Year.

Most of the words considered were Internet and social media-related.

Larry Johnson, 64, said his granddaughter posts selfies and other photos -- including some of him -- on her Facebook page.

"At first I was surprised to see my photo on there, then I found it wasn't a big deal," said Johnson, taking a break from discussing David McCullough's book, "The Johnstown Flood."

Neither Johnson nor Presor were familiar with Bitcoin, a type of online currency that was a finalist for Word of the Year.

"I never buy anything when I'm online," Presor said. "I play slot machines, usually."

Johnson wasn't familiar with another Word of the Year finalist, showrooming, which means to check out a product in a store, then buy it online at a cheaper price.

Word of the Year: St. Paulites celebrate 'selfie' by taking one

With the publishers of the Oxford English Dictionary declaring "selfie" the word of the year on Tuesday, the Pioneer Press decided to give folks on the streets of downtown St. Paul a chance to take a self-portrait with a smartphone.

Some people were immediately game, a few reluctant and a couple taken aback when asked if they knew what a selfie was.

Sammy Echols of Minneapolis said he'd never heard of or taken a selfie in his life.

"I don't get into this stuff all the time. Usually if someone asked me to do this, I'd run the other way and think they're crazy," he said.

For Edward Neumann, decorum was the main concern.

"If it's proper, I don't see any problem with it," he said.

Lydia Bellanger of the White Earth Indian Reservation had heard the word before but had never taken one.

"How's this work?" she asked, smiling.

Trayvon Smaller of St. Paul has taken selfies in the past but was not a big fan.

"It's kind of like saying you're too cocky, confident. You're showing off a little bit," he said. "It's kind of annoying when people take, like, six selfies and put them in a collage."
