  1. It's a time-sucking black hole: You open Facebook for a quick peek and suddenly it's 3 AM, you've stalked your ex's new partner's cousin's dog, and you hate yourself. Congratulations, you've just pissed away half your life scrolling through other people's bullshit.

  2. The endless comparison game: Nothing like scrolling through carefully curated highlights of other people's lives to make you feel like a worthless sack of crap. Thanks, Instagram, for the daily reminder that I'm a failure!

  3. Echo chambers of stupidity: Social media algorithms are turning us all into close-minded assholes. Why challenge your beliefs when you can just surround yourself with people who agree with your dumbass opinions?

  4. The rise of internet "experts": Suddenly, everyone's a fucking epidemiologist, political analyst, and relationship guru. Who needs actual qualifications when you have a Twitter account and strong opinions?

  5. Attention spans shorter than a goldfish's: We've gone from reading books to skimming articles to just reading headlines. Soon, we'll communicate in nothing but emojis and grunts. Evolution in reverse, folks!

  6. The pressure to be "on" 24/7: God forbid you don't respond to a message within 0.5 seconds. What are you, some kind of social pariah? Sleep is for the weak, apparently.

  7. The death of privacy: Remember when your embarrassing moments were just between you and the people who witnessed them? Now, one stupid dance move and you're a global meme. Thanks a lot, TikTok!

  8. Fake news bonanza: Who needs facts when you have sensationalized headlines and out-of-context quotes? Critical thinking is so last century.

  9. The rise of internet trolls: Nothing like waking up to death threats from strangers because you dared to have an opinion online. It's like a digital "Lord of the Flies" out there.

  10. FOMO on steroids: Can't enjoy a damn thing without wondering if there's something better happening elsewhere. Congrats, social media, you've turned us all into neurotic, dissatisfied assholes.

There you have it, the ten reasons why social media is turning us all into anxious, distracted, narcissistic morons. But hey, at least we have cute cat videos, right? Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go post this list on every platform for those sweet, sweet likes. The irony is not lost on me, you judgmental pricks.
