  1. You clicked on this link.

  2. Buzzfeed comes up in your browser’s suggested sites.

  3. You click on “20 Things You Realize When You’re In Your Twenties” just in case there’s something you didn’t know you were supposed to be thinking at this age and you really don’t want to be the only not thinking it.

  4. You look at lists featuring pictures of animal friendships, epic autocorrect fails and hilarious wedding names because even though you’ve definitely seen almost all of these, there might be 3 out of 50 that you haven’t yet.

  5. You are still reading this right now.

  6. YOU ARE TOTALLY MISSING OUT ON SOMETHING THAT EVERYONE ELSE HAS SEEN AND LAUGHED AT IF YOU DON’T CLICK ON THAT LIST!

  7. You deeply believe that all of life’s most important things can be summed up in bullet points that add up to a round number.

  8. While you read one online list, you open about six more from the sidebar in a new tab because they all seem like they’re probably entertaining.

  9. Oh my god, it’s already 12:30am? You were supposed to go to sleep an hour ago!

  10. There’s an art to switching over to the tab with the Google Docs spreadsheet the exact moment your boss walks behind you, and you are goddamn Picasso.

  11. You really should have written that report before you clicked on that link, but oh well whatever just one more list should only take, like, three minutes!

  12. Ugh, the day is half over and there’s still a full day’s work to do. This is not good.

  13. Guess you’ll be working a little late tonight so you can feel a little better about wasting so many hours not working. You won’t even ask for overtime!

  14. Actually, it’s quitting time and everyone else is going home… F#$% it, you’ll just work extra hard tomorrow.

  15. One more list never killed anyone. *Click*
