Is Fish Gape the New Duck Face of Selfies?

You might have done this face before for your selfies, Candy Girls. But it's just lately we've noticed the trend when Teen Vogue pointed it out. Could the fish gape be the new duck face?

From Our Readers: The Irony of Love

Maybe Paulo Coelho was right when he wrote in his book, "It is in the Realm of Love that we fight our first battles—and generally lose." Maybe loving is really giving and not expecting for something in return. Maybe "to love and be loved" is not really the greatest feeling in the world.
