Are you all OK?
Today, TikTok got banned. It was my place for when I’m bored. I’m literally crying. FML

Kids these days…
Today, I got home from the hospital after having emergency surgery on my hand. My TikTok obsessed teenager, who barely noticed I was gone, never mind that I had surgery, chose today to actually leave her room and sit downstairs with the family. Yeah, she sat on my hand. I cried. Like a baby. FML

Micromanagement
Today, I’m 15 and my mother banned me from watching YouTube because it’s "distracting." What the f***? How? Now I have to pretend that I've watched the things my friends send me so they won’t know. FML

I'm too old for this shit
Today, I tried to do a TikTok dance and ended up knocking over a lamp and breaking it. It wasn't even my lamp. I now think I'm probably too old for current social media trendiness. FML

Today, my admissions to my dream university was rescinded and no longer being considered for a $45,000 scholarship. Apparently, the content of my TikTok account does not align with the University’s values. I forgot I have a few videos of me twerking and lip syncing a few profanity-laced songs. FML

Stop stealing Kias!
Today, I watched a video of the absolute dumbest and most dangerous TikTok trends, and I practically lost all my faith in humanity. Then, when I remembered that almost all of these people are/were around my age (I'm eighteen), and whatever faith in humanity I had left after watching the video completely vanished. FML

Get on with it!
Today, I shat myself, all because my little sister spent two hours trying to make a TikTok video in the one bathroom we have in the house. FML

Turn it into a positive. Get a library card and use the time you doom-scrolled on TikTok to learn something.

It’s a bullshit ban and a stop on the road to fascism.

This is a sad read. Get a hobby, you’ll have more fun when your mind is idle

Typical Gen Z attitude. Glad I didn't use the overrated app. Even if it came back, the fact that so many people are this addicted to it is a clear indication of how screwed our future is.
