So, I don't know if you've all noticed, but humans have the tendency to overreact. Especially teenagers and young adults. While some of these reactions can be offered a token of grace, some of them are wildly ridiculous. We laugh at our parents and grandparents who moan and groan about having to pay two dollars for a cup of coffee. "Back in my day, I could buy a cup of coffee for a nickel!" Yes grandpa, and you also walked to school in five feet of snow both ways. We know!

But what people of our generation do now realize is that we react just as irrationally to changes in our life, specifically updates on social media. You know, those apps that control our lives... Apparently they control our tempers too. Recently, Instagram updated their app and Twitter never heard the end of it. Isn't funny how we use one social media site to complain about another? This trend is so amusing when you think about it. Here are 6 times our generation has irrationally overreacted to a change in social media:

1. Instagram's most recent update.

Although the app's icon has changed and the blue and brown color scheme is lost forever, everything else about the app (the important stuff like editing tools and the ability to like photos of people you follow) remains intact. Still, people have responded with hatred. Here are just a few examples:

This Gif that went viral explaining how the new logo was made:

These snarky and remorseful tweets:

This real conversation I had with my good friend:

2. That time Twitter transitioned from favorites to likes.

What's so different between a star and a heart? Apparently, a lot! Many were enraged by this change. But, hey, congratulations to us for adapting to such brutal conditions.

3. Why does Facebook REQUIRE messenger?

I would like to be able to send a message on Facebook without having to have a second app. You think I have storage on my phone for that? Sure, I could delete a handful of my 1,500 photos or 50 videos, but it's all just very inconvenient. I'm upset.

4. When Snapchat updated stories.

What do you mean I can't see how many seconds someone's story is? How do I know what I am getting myself into? There is, like, no warning. Also, why do all stories play consecutively? What if I was avoiding that person?

5. Instagram video views.

Views. Views. Views? Views? And no, I'm not talking about Drake's latest album. Why does Instagram tell you how many views your video got? What happened to the likes? How am I supposed to measure my self-worth if this number is a mystery to me?!?

6. When The Odyssey updated their site.

There's no way I was the only writer who was annoyed by this change. It took all of ten minutes to figure out the new format, but wow was it a huge inconvenience!

Despite our generation's angsty response to these social media changes, we continue to use the apps. They run our lives. Odds are, if you are reading this, you found it through social media. So while you're here, share this article,but above all, keep double tapping, keep using that dog filter, keep subtweeting, and keep following. Blessings on our endeavors.
