”Accidentally Liking Old Instagram Photos: The Only Real Horror Movie”

You know what's scarier than a horror flick? Accidentally liking an old Instagram photo. It's like social media's way of having a heart attack without the medical bill. I've spent way too much time overthinking this digital faux pas, and now you have to hear about it. From the panic-inducing notification to the frantic undo attempts that feel like defusing a bomb, let's break down why this is the modern-day equivalent of stepping on a social landmine. Spoiler: it's as funny as it is terrifying.

Things Nobody Says About Weird Habits We All Pretend We Don’t Have

I spent way too much time thinking about those quirky habits we all swear we don’t have, and now you have to hear about it. Seriously, why do we act like we're masterminds in a heist the moment someone catches us talking to our reflection or narrating our own cooking shows? And don't even get me started on the imaginary Oscars we all deserve for our grocery store slow-mo scenes. Let's face it, we're all secretly living in musicals and pretending to understand "evocative brushwork." Trust me, your coffee maker and I have some things in common.

Me vs The Grocery Store: An Awkward Odyssey

I spent way too much time thinking about awkward encounters at the grocery store and now you have to hear about it.

Let's break down why grocery shopping feels more like a sitcom and less like a simple errand. From the existential crises in aisle six to the checkout line paranoia, and those self-checkout machines that could double as interrogation devices, it's time to laugh at the absurdity of it all.

Why My Parents Think I’m Rich Because I Order DoorDash

I've spent way too much time thinking about why my parents think ordering DoorDash is a sign of wealth. I mean, they act like I'm rolling in cash just because I opt for delivery instead of hunting my own food like we're still living in the Ice Age. It's like they think my DoorDash driver is a butler and that I pay him in yacht shares. Meanwhile, I'm over here tipping with whatever change I find in my couch cushions. My thoughts on why ordering takeout is the new gold standard of luxury that nobody asked for but you're getting anyway.
