  1. You have made one or more posts that started with “I am SO excited to announce…”
  2. You replaced pressing the “like” button with pressing the “share” button, as if any of us give a shit about that cinnamon pretzel bites recipe that you’re never going to make.
  3. You got engaged.
  4. Your friend got engaged, and you’re a bridesmaid.
  5. You posted a furious status about the whole Gorilla ordeal, despite the fact that you make zero alternative attempts to be environmentally conscious.
  6. Your entire profile is basically just humblebrag city.
  7. You haven’t uploaded any pictures of you sober since high school, and it shows.
  8. You won’t stop with the selfies.
  9. Your profile picture depicts you eating a doughnut, riding a giant inflatable swan, or playing with a puppy that doesn’t belong to you.
  10. You often post sappy posts dedicated to relatives who don’t even have Facebook.
  11. Your boyfriend is too good-looking.

  14. You post Snapchats that you already added to your story.
  15. Just don’t post Snapchats, okay?

  18. You have a history of concluding long posts with “Rant over.”

  20. Your PDA posts are really unnecessary and need to return to where they belong, AKA, the seventh grade.
  21. You very clearly think you’re about four times cooler than you actually are.
  22. You post pictures of your workouts.
  23. You pour your heart out with a picture collage every time someone you knows has a birthday.

  25. I hate to tell you, but your dog just isn’t that cute.
  26. You have a kid, and for some reason think that we want to see pictures of it all day, every day.
  27. You have too many feelings.
  28. I just don’t really like you, but I also don’t hate you enough to blatantly unfriend you.
