A Little Low-Key Humor

Face it—this might be worth a snicker to a linguist, but not a laugh. It’s words applying for entrance into the OED.
Don’t get me wrong—I highly recommend the OED. It’s famous for the thoroughness of its definitions (the longest definition is for set) and etymologies, and I typically see a couple articles every year about the new words accepted into its collection. That’s what’s going on here. I confess I don’t know what “bae” or “regram” means. Maybe you could tell me in the comments. Or maybe I’ll find them in next year’s edition.
How can I see the comments? I’d like to know what those mean, too.
