- Turning your phone on silent and checking it every five minutes even though no one is actually texting you.
- Thinking you are spectacularly tan, and then comparing yourself to any non-emo white kid and realizing that you are decidedly not.
- Being so excessively lazy that you have to bargain with yourself to do mundane things such as shower.
- Having imaginary conversations with people in your head that you would never dare have with them in person.
- Making lame excuses to your friends for not hanging out, merely for the fact that you would rather sit at home and watch t.v.
- Procrastinating; not only for the sake of being lazy, but because your work is better last minute.
- Judging what other people put on Facebook, when the last thing you posted was about your cat.
- Trying to convince yourself to delete your Facebook, but realizing you would no longer have anything to do all day
- Talking to someone, and worrying that you might talk about something in their life you learned through Facebook. (Why does everything come back to Facebook?)
- Freaking out every time you see a teacher in public and realizing they have a life outside of the classroom.
- Every time you see an attractive person of the opposite sex, imagining a relationship that would most definitely not ensue.
- Ordering something to drink at a coffee shop just because it seems cool and exotic, then realizing that it tastes terrible.
- Every time someone watches you type, feeling that you can't type fast enough and your fingers have to run away from them.
- Pretending to be excited when someone shares what they think to be really exciting information.
- Reading a word wrong in your head, then deciding it sounds better your way.
- Zoning out in a conversation, and pretending that you're still listening by occasionally saying "Yeah," "Uh-huh," and "I totally agree."
- Making a compilation of stupid things you know no will ever read. (Example: See Above List)
