1. Gas
This one is the classic reason to make a Venmo payment. Your friends are probably Scrooges and make you pay along for the ride. You may think they're your friend, but if they ask for gas money all the time, you may be wrong. Then again, college calls for some desperate times, so a little extra cash can go a long way (literally).
2. Beer
There's no explaining this one.
3. Something from 7/11
For whatever purchase you or your friend made, someone came up a dollar too short. That Brisk Iced Tea is essential to you, so it's nice for when it's compensated.
4. Food
There's always that friend that says, "Don't worry, I got it," but TOTALLY expects you to pay him/her back. It's charming at first, but the pending charges have yet to haunt you.
5. More food
It's that time when you forgot you had to pay your friend back, so the extra charges from that McDonald's value menu item fall under this category.
6. Chipotle
Chipotle goes separately from "Food" because it's in its own world. Chipotle isn't just food – it's a lifestyle. Your friend may pay for you, and it may be the best feeling in the world, but that steak guac burrito does not come cheap.
7. Plug emoji
Your friend seriously hooked you up. They're the "plug." Everyone relies on them.
8. Damages
Could be real damages, but probably means damages to your bank account.
9. Wineglass emoji
10. Flame emoji
This could mean anything, really – could honestly be for a bus fare.
11. Peach emoji
Famed for its butt lookalike, the peach emoji made its appearance in college kids' Venmo transactions. It's funny to see a butt looking peach emoji pop up on your newsfeed.
12. Tix
Concert tickets, football tickets: you name it. College kids hate to write out "tickets" so tix takes its place.
13. Condoms
Could be for actual condoms, but probably not. If it is, well hey, there's no shame.
14. Eyes emoji
This one is the most suspicious of them all. Those eyes just really look like they've seen something – who knows what the Venmo charge is.
15. "For being my friend"
Awh. This one is adorable. It's although painfully true when it comes to certain types of people.
16. Pizza emoji
It seems like college kids are always eating pizza. Either it's the cheapest option or just the go-to menu item.
17. Uber
This one is definitely #1 for many reasons. You probably took a trip to the movies or went out of town to see a concert. The possibilities are endless when it comes to Uber – just make sure you pay your friend back because those charges don't hit lightly.
