21 Times Your Obsession With Tumblr Went Too Far

    True Life: I'm a Tumblr Addict.

    1. When you couldn't stop yourself from automatically clicking refresh on the sacred dashboard.

    So many things to reblog, so little time.

    But I don't want my followers to think I've abandoned them!

    3. When you had to decide between doing real things or spending the entire day on Tumblr.

    Tumblr wins. Every. Single. Time.

    4. When no one outside of Tumblr fully understood the level of stress your newfound addiction was putting on your life.

    If only it was that easy.

    5. When you took your laptop with you to the bathroom because you were afraid you'd miss something exciting if you looked away from your dash for even ONE second.

    You gotta do what you gotta do, tbh. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    6. When you tried to create boundaries between you and Tumblr, but failed miserably.

    It's not you, it's me... well... it's actually you. It's all your fault, Tumblr!

    7. When your entire sleeping schedule was basically fucked.

    OK, where did the last eight hours go???

    8. When you expected everyone around you to be up-to-date on your life via Tumblr.

    I swear to little baby Jesus if Tumblr is down AGAIN... *throws computer out window, regrets later*

    10. And when your night got even worse after you were no longer able to publish anything because you exceeded the daily post limit.

    HOW CAN I LIVE?

    Sorry, I have a blog to maintain.
