This is a technology addicted generation. Our phones are overflowed with distracting social media apps that we use to communicate instead of exercising our inherent and normal social capabilities. Simple texting has evolved into Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and the most infamous of them all, Snapchat. A picture is worth a thousand words, right? Why inform the world about your life in words when you can capture your daily adventures, obsessions and problems in a 10-second video? As Snapchat has slowly taken over our lives, as an avid Snapchat user, you have definitely come across at least one of these types of people. If you haven't, well, you may be one yourself.
1. The girl who thinks Snapchat is the way she’s going to make it into the modeling world.
Yes, we get it. You can make the same facial expression in different lighting.
2. The person who is always eating something artsy or unhealthy.
Woah, you're eating Taco Bell again. How fascinating!
3. The person who acknowledges the existence of Snapchat after drinking four shots in five minutes and proceeds to record their crazy night in intervals of 10 seconds.
4. The person you thought you trusted with your most embarrassing, disgusting, humiliating selfies who ends up taking a screenshot of it for future blackmail use.
5. And honestly, the people who send uncomfortably close up selfies of them contorting their faces in such a way that should not be possible.
Sorry, but that's just... no.
6. The person who documents the ups and downs of their entire day into at least a 600-second snap story.
That's 10 minutes of 60 Snapchats.
All that being said, I had no intention of personally offending anyone who secretly or openly reflects any of these categories. Believe me, I have found myself embodying each and every one of these at some point in time. Just some sarcastic humor to relive stress before finals week!
