4 Social Media Trends I'm Tired Of Seeing
Fast Company

For someone like me who has Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat accounts, it seems like people have gotten more annoying as the day goes by. Social media has made it nearly impossible to ignore how incredibly annoying certain trends are. I'm all for people doing what they want, but these 10 things need to be put to an end.

1. Getting annoyed about girls using Snapchat filters.

There's a trend by useless and ignorant men that shame woman for their use of Snapchat filters. Like it really really bothers them to the point that they have given it a new name. The dog filter on Snapchat has now been labeled the "H*e filter" by them. And according to them 'ugly girls' can't use Snapchat filters because its "false advertising". Yes, this is really their thought process.

2. Telling your followers everything that goes on in your life.

We all follow that one person that narrates their entire life on Snapchat, or that one high school friend who writes long detailed rants about what went wrong in their relationship on Facebook. These people take the 'I'm an open book' thing extremely far and wont let one dramatic moment in their life pass without announcing it to their followers.

3. Instagram, Vine and Youtube Challenges.

Every month there is a new challenge that is incredibly stupid and useless. The first one I can recall is the "Don't Judge Me Challenge" where pretty people use makeup to draw on unibrow, pimples and everything else that is deemed unattractive to society and then transforming into their regular flawless makeup self. The purpose? It really had none, it was a shallow gimmick and used as an opportunity to show people how pretty they are when they wipe away their fake flaws. Of course following that was the running man challenge and now the musically app challenge were people just lip sync in front of a camera and make cringey dance moves.

I shouldn't even need to explain this, please make it stop.



Yes, that is a knife.


Just please make it all stop.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
