A facepic is internet slang for a photo showing someone's face — typically requested in online chats, forums, or dating platforms to verify that the person you're talking to looks how they claim. The term was common in early internet culture when sharing photos required deliberate effort, and asking for a facepic was a way to screen out catfishes before the word catfish was even coined. In modern swipe-based apps it's mostly obsolete, but the term survives in niche communities and older corners of the web.
