As an avid user of social media, I tend to come across many pictures, which means I come across many captions, some original, others, not so much. Here is a list of 10 captions that I think are highly overused and I wouldn’t mind if they just went away completely.
1. ______ hair, don’t care!
Whether it be long hair don’t care, messy hair don’t care, good hair don't care, or blonde hair don’t care, this caption needs to go. You say you don’t care? Obviously, we see that because you just posted a selfie of that hair.
2. Low-quality picture, high-quality people
Okay, we see, it is, in fact, a low-quality picture, you don’t have to point it out. Just say that you really enjoy the people in it and I think you can get your point across.
3. ____ goals
This could include friendship goals, relationship goals, hair goals, or anything really. I must say, I think I am guilty of this, but I think it is time to put “goals” in the past.
4. I did a thing
When people post this when they get a haircut or hair color, I don’t know why it drives me nuts, but it does. You did a thing? What is that thing? Did you win a gold fish at the fair? Climb Mt. Everest? I mean, not everyone will notice your hair right away, I mean, they most likely will, but why not just say “hey, I changed my hair guys!” that is a lot better.
5. No caption needed
If no caption was needed, why did you put a caption then? Things that make you go hmm.
6. I’m bad at captions
If you are bad at captions, then don’t put one. There is no rule that says you must put a caption. Or just look up cheesy lyrics, that usually works for everyone.
7. _____ game strong
This one usually includes brow game strong, hair game strong, or selfie game strong. Well, I don’t see the muscles on your picture, so doesn’t look that strong to me!
8. Snapchat saw it first
I don’t care who saw it first, just let me admire your picture! Also, you don’t want to hurt Instagram’s feelings or anything that they weren’t the first to be blessed with your picture. Be courteous.
9. If this doesn’t describe us, I don’t know what does
Well, I don’t really have much to say about this one, I just find it overused when talking about a couple or group of friends.
10. Old to me, new to you
Really there is no point in telling us that information. Just post it and see what happens. I’m sure nobody is going to look for the date the picture was taken and sue you for false advertising or something.
