These Funny Millennial Tweets That Are Pretty Darn Accurate

Millennials just can’t catch a break, can they?

They get ridiculed by everyone who isn’t part of their generation and they seem to be the butt of endless jokes. But it seems like they (usually) take the harassment in stride.

Let’s give these young people a break…after we laugh at these tweets making fun of them.

1. Ugggghhhh

2. Let’s not get together

3. Check all the boxes

4. That’s not depressing at all

5. Oh God, no!

6. Hang on tight

7. He has a point…

8. Ouch

9. Quite a difference

10. Well, good to see ya

11. The nerve of these people

12. Hmmmmm

13. So true

14. I don’t hear anything

15. The wonders of time

Now, get back to eating your avocado toast!

Travel Instagrammers Share Helpful Tips for Taking Better Travel Photos

No vacation feels complete anymore without the perfect travel photos these days. If you want to take your travel photography up several notches, these travel Instagrammers have some advice for you.

Part of the magic of photography is all about timing. One Berlin-based travel photographer, Theodora Melnik (@______theo), tells HuffPost that sunrise is the perfect time for a photo.

Sigh, time to leave Siracusa ???

A post shared by Theodora ™ (@______theo) on

“I can’t recommend shooting sunrise enough,” Theodora said. “Whenever I make the effort, I get to explore even the busiest of places practically by myself, which if you’re thinking of the Eiffel Tower or the Spanish Steps is really something.”

And speaking of the sun — sunset is also a picture-perfect time of day, but don’t make the rookie mistake of only photographing the actual sunset.

Best coast

“On vacation when you go to the beach at sunset, everyone has their phones pointed directly at the red orb going down over the ocean, which is really pretty and definitely worth capturing. But don’t forget to turn around and see what the sun is shining on,” Tyson Wheatley (@twheat) explains.

Similarly, when visiting a major monument, people tend to snap a photo of it for their records. But Elke Frotscher (@elice_f) recommends photographing the little things that surround the big monuments.

This allows for a more unique photo that truly captures the essence of the place, instead of just a photo of the Eiffel Tower that looks exactly like something you could find on Google.

Have a great trip, and hope the photos turn out great!

This Is How You Can Tell If Someone Blocked You on Facebook

Most of us don’t have the time or interest to go checking (or caring) who might have decided they no longer want to see what we have to say on Facebook.

That said, most of us also have moments of morbid curiosity that we’ll occasionally give into. And maybe we want to know if that one interaction (or something more personal) caused a “friend” (or relative, natch) to not only unfriend us on Facebook, but to completely block us from their timeline.

Here are some tips and tricks for those inevitable moments!

Scroll Through Your Friend List

Current mood: ? #blockedonfacebook #mature

A post shared by Danielle Meadors (@dani_sherri_c) on

If one of your former “friends” has blocked or unfriended you, they’ll no longer been on the list.

Do A General Search

If you type a name into the search bar and, when you click on a name, it shows that you’re friends, then the two of you are still in good standing.

If it shows the option to “Add Friend,” then you’ve been Unfriended. You can tell if you’ve been fully blocked by clicking on their name and seeing whether or not you’re able to see their public posts.

If you can’t, things are as bad as you think.

You’ve Definitely Been Blocked When…

Someone you know has an active profile doesn’t show up in the search results at all.

Your options are getting a friend to do the stalking for you or – crazy – talk to them about what happened in person, if that’s the sort of relationship you used to have.

There you go – but like I said, try not to get too wrapped up in what people think of you online.

There there be monsters, my friends.

What You Should Do with Your Parents’ Social Media Accounts After They Pass Away

Long after people pass away, their social media accounts stay online, which can be both touching and eerie. In case you’d like to prepare, here’s what you can and can’t do with your parents’ social media accounts after they pass away.

Facebook is the only social media company that allows users to decide what will happen to their accounts after they die. By going to “memorialization settings,” your parent can choose from two options: they can have their account deleted after death, or they can assign a “legacy contact” to take over. This person can address friend requests, remove tags, and update profile and cover photos. If no settings are chosen, and Facebook becomes aware of a person’s death, they will turn the page into a memorial. A memorialized profile looks different, with a Tributes section, and it doesn’t show up in “People You May Know” lists anymore.

Instagram is owned by Facebook, but they only offer one option: memorializing the account. A memorialized Instagram page doesn’t look any different from an active one, but it becomes inactive and it can’t be altered in any way. You can’t take down posts or change the page’s privacy settings. Otherwise, you can contact Instagram to have the page removed altogether.

Lastly, there’s Twitter. Twitter doesn’t offer any memorialization options, nor does it let anyone else log in as the deceased. There’s only one choice, which is to ask for the account to be taken down altogether. If possible, you can ask your parent what they want to happen to their Twitter in case of death; they can always give you their log-in information directly, just in case.

To best prepare for mortality, it actually is pretty important that you leave some log of all your passwords behind – that way whoever is dealing with the estate can get into everything. Check out this article for more steps you might want to take, for your parents or yourself.

Instagram Gets Fooled by a Fake “Influencer”… Again

Right now, we live in a very strange world. People are famous and wealthy for doing almost nothing except knowing how, when, and where to take a photo and post it to social media. Very odd…

A construction worker named Omar asked his daughter what an “influencer” is, and after she explained the (pretty ridiculous) reality behind this phenomenon, Omar said “Pssh, I could do that!”

And he did: He started his own Instagram account with carefully curated photos of his everyday life.

Photo Credit: Twitter,barbzlovescarbs

Omar posted his first photo on May 3, 2019, and his numbers have gone through the roof. As of this writing, Omar has 435,000 Instagram followers. I’d call that a success, wouldn’t you?

Take a look at Omar’s pics and maybe pick up some tips on how you can become an influencer yourself.

PS: Read all the way until the end for an important update on this viral, trending story. It turns out that all is not as it seems…

1. On the job

A post shared by Omar (@justaconstructionguy) on

Update: it turns out that Omar and his Instagram persona are just a marketing ploy by an ad agency to sell coffee.

Cuvée Coffee in Austin, Texas, to be exact. If you go back and look through “Omar’s” photos, there are quite a few coffee pics in there and they’re all tagged the same location.

Duped again!

Mike McKim, the owner of Cuvée Coffee, said, “The whole idea was what we always thought as an influencer, and what we used as an influencer in the past, they don’t always fit our brand. We need a different type of influencer: a hard-worker, blue-collar guy.” So McKim worked with a marketing company to create the Omar character and the ad campaign.

I wish Omar was real, but this is still a pretty clever marketing ploy, I must admit.
