I have compiled some snap story rules for the blatantly ignorant. Your story probably gets skipped by everyone if you do any of these. If you need to be told WHAT NOT TO POST, you deserve the roasting that is to come. And yes, unfortunately, I have myself witnessed everything on this list. Why are people so dumb???

1. No more than 2-3 snaps of the same thing at once.

2. If your video is noisy and volume is irrelevant, MUTE IT.

3. If your video requires volume, don’t post it if theres too much background noise.

Nobody watches loud videos. The second I hear sound, SKIP.


4. If you’re at a concert, opt for 1-2 nice photos and MAYBE ONE tasteful video. The people around you don't want to look at your phone the whole time.

5. DONT POST A BLANK SCREEN WITH “11:11”, “life is hard :(”, or something ratchet like that.

Ratchet is what you are. Attention is what you seek. Just call your mom.

6. Save your long series of camera roll pics for Instagram or Facebook unless it’s something relevant.

7. Whenever I'm about to do something, I think, "Would an idiot do that?" And if they would, I do not do that thing." -Dwight Schrute

8. If you never talk to someone otherwise, just break the streak.

Seriously, sending "Streak" to 50+ people twice a day? Are you in middle school? YOU ARE annoying and waste everyone's time. Just don't be the person people make fun of! It's not that hard!!??

9. Don't post over 10 snaps on your story a day.

Seriously. IF YOU'RE ON A SUPER COOL TRIP, MAYBE. It's still annoying.

10. Calm down with the PDA. Spare us all.

11. Do not rant for 5 consecutive videos.

No-one cares about your fight with Rachel. Even just talking on your snap story for a really long time is toooo much. Again, don't be the person that people make fun of. Cuz you are.

12. Dont use your story to make people/exes jealous.

13. If someone wasn't invited, block them from your story.

Don't be petty. Don't cause drama.

14. DO NOT ask "Streaks?" on your story.

15. Don't post personal emotional stuff.

Especially about a breakup...

16. NO PICTURES OR VIDEOS OF YOU CRYING.

I have seen it before... Yikes. Please, call a friend. A relative. Send the videos of your sad weeping to someone, but for the love of all that is good DO NOT POST THESE VIDEOS.

17. Do you really need to post 5 selfies a day, every single day?

We all see the new filters, Jessica. There are new ones every day. You're not Kylie, move along.


18. Use you common sense.

Think about who sees your story before you post. Use common sense on all social media platforms. Save ranting for friends. HAVE A GOOD DAY!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
