The best (and worst) procrastination tool: Buzzfeed quizzes. And I admit, I am addicted. I can’t go a single day without taking a BuzzFeed quiz.
All of them are basically the same, like “pick some food items and we’ll tell you which city you belong in” but I get a different result every time and it’s so fascinating.
The issue I have is that once I start I can’t stop. I tell myself I’ll only take one or two for a quick homework break and then it’s two hours later, I have three different celebrity boyfriends from different decades, small dog breeds that are my spirit animal and five different cities that I belong in.
Sidenote: my small dog breed spirit animal is a Corgi and it’s the best news I’ve ever gotten.
How do you do it, BuzzFeed? Why are your simple, ridiculous quizzes so entertaining? I just stopped in the middle of writing this to take more BuzzFeed quizzes. The breakfast food that matches my personality is a donut. What does that mean? Nothing. How does that benefit me? It doesn’t, at all, I don’t know what it means to have a donut-like personality, but at least now I know that I am a donut. Hopefully, soon there will be a quiz to tell me which kind of donut I am.
I have a problem. BuzzFeed is always there for me when I need a distraction, but I never know when to stop. I have let them infiltrate my brain and now I can’t them go. BuzzFeed, I am in love with you but this relationship is too toxic. You’re affecting my school work, my sleep schedule, and my entire life.
The time has come. I must cut you off. Today I must delete the BuzzFeed app to reduce the amount of time I spend taking your quizzes.
Don’t cry, BuzzFeed, this is not the end. I can always come to you with my laptop, and I’m sure I will.
