4. You’re defined by how many followers and Retweets you get on your jokes.

5. No one understands the things you do for your followers.

6. You might’ve been in a Vine with a celebrity, you might’ve gotten a sponsorship with GM on Instagram, but outside of those social network, you’re still anonymous.

7. You feel contempt towards your Facebook friends who post “memes” and “breaking news” when you saw them on Reddit like, two hours ago.
