14 Signs You're Addicted To Facebook
vetazacatecas

When "facebooking" consumes more than half of your day, it's safe to admit, you're an addict. I myself am a social media addict, but what consumes most of my "social media" addiction is most definitely Facebook. Urban Dictionary describes facebooking as:

1. Verb: To waste time by browsing TheFaceBook.com.

Yeah, I spent all last night FaceBooking instead of writing my paper.

2. Verb: To check your Facebook profile, search for something on Facebook or use one of its many apps.

gancho: Dude, put your iPhone away.
make: Hold on a second. I'm facebooking something.
gancho: Don't ever use that as a verb again.

I know you Facebook addicts out there don't want to admit it, but you probably are a Facebook addict. Here are 14 ways to know for sure that you're a Facebook addict.


1. Scrolling through your news feed the second you wake up and the second before you fall asleep.

2. When you go to settings on your iPhone and "Facebook" takes up over 55 percent of your Battery Usage.

3. Spending all day sharing/reading/liking random post and articles on your news feed.

4. Learning all your news from the "Trending" sidebar.

5. Watching those cooking videos that look absolutely delicious and saying to yourself every time you're going to make it, but you end up being too lazy scrolling through Facebook all day.

6. You will never go 30 minutes without being active.

7. Anytime you're ever doing anything on your computer, the Facebook tab will always be open.

8. You have over 1,000 Facebook friends because you crave as many friends as possible.

9. You always are up to date on what everyone is doing because you never miss a post, you're always online.

10. Your friends and family will get mad at you because you will never pay attention to what they're saying. You're way too focused with what's on your Facebook news feed.

11. You spend way too much time just staring at your Facebook profile for no reason.

12. You find it interesting to stalk people on Facebook you knew from your childhood.

13. You automatically type in "Facebook.com" every time you open up your browser.

14. More than half of your Facebook friends aren't actually your real friends. Some you probably haven't even met or talked to before.

If these 14 things consume your life, its time to admit, you're a Facebook addict.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
