You strongly identified with the song “I’m Just a Kid” by Simple Plan.

You had a profile on an obscure website for teens like TeenSpot or Myspace that closely resembled this.

Your away messages on AIM usually featured lyrics from The Goo Goo Dolls, NeverShoutNever, Death Cab for Cutie or All Time Low songs.

At one point you strongly considered or actually followed through in getting aggressive side-bangs and dying a strip of your hair hot pink.

You attended Warped Tour.

Your screen names often incorporated an “XoX” and/or alternating upper case and lower case letters.

You literally idolized Lindsay Lohan’s character in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen.

When asked to describe yourself you often used words such as “punk,” “alternative” or “different.”

You forced your parents to drive you and your friends to the mall on multiple occasions just so you could go to Hot Topic.

You owned extremely unnecessarily chunky sneakers like Etnies or Pumas that you often paired with ripped skinny jeans.

You burned mix CDs and then doodled on them with colorful sharpies as a hobby.

You’re physically cringing reading this list because you spent the last five years trying to forget that you actually did these things.

Don’t worry, you’re not alone.
