No Joke, the Merriam-Webster dictionary added 2nd time mom -to-be Alyssa Milano to its words roster!

Well, not really but it did today add the words “Selfie” and “Baby Bump” which is represented in the Mistresses star’s recent Instagram photo with the caption that included “hashtags” (“#shortpeoplecarrybig #noitsnottwins.”) among the 150 new words.  

It defines:

Baby Bump: the enlarged abdomen of a pregnant woman

Selfie: an image of oneself taken by oneself using a digital camera especially for posting on social networks

Hashtag: a word or phrase preceded by the symbol # that classifies or categorizes the accompanying text [such as a tweet]

Other fun, social media and tech words added and defined indlude:

Tweep: a person who uses the Twitter online message service to send and receive tweets

Catfish: a person who sets up a false social networking profile for deceptive purposes.

Crowdfunding: (pretty much what Kickstarter is) the practice of soliciting financial contributions from a large number of people especially from the online community. 

Social Networking:  the creation and maintenance of personal and business relationships especially online.

Cool. Now if only it can add “mansplaining” the circle would be complete.
