According to Urban Dictionary, a "pick-me girl" is "a girl who seeks male validation by indirectly or directly insinuating that she is 'not like the other girls.'" A great example would be that one girl in your life who can't stop talking about how much she loves sports and "drinking some brewskis with the boys." Maybe she actually likes sports...Or maybe she's just trying to impress the men in her life. The world may never know!
What I do know is that there are some certified pick-me girls with zero self-awareness (and a whole lot of internalized misogyny) that have developed a liking for embarrassing themselves on the internet, and I cannot look away. Here are 17 examples that made me want to punch a wall:

7. This woman who weirdly thinks she's better than other women because she drinks Monsters instead of Starbucks:
8. This woman who's judging people based on the type of period products they use:
9. This woman who has an embarrassingly overactive imagination:
10. This woman who is hopefully the last person to ever use the hashtag "#ieatlikeadude":
11. This woman who has no business commenting on other women's bodies:
12. This woman who is using a disappointing approach to online dating:
13. This woman who needs to get off her high horse:
14. This woman who's making a fool of herself on Reddit:
15. This woman who should shut her mouth and keep reading her physics book:
16. This woman who thinks wearing a dress is a necessary gender marker:
17. And finally, this woman who is a lost cause:
