A recent Humans of New York photo has taken the internet by storm, resonating with countless individuals who can’t help but tag their best pals. It captures the essence of friendship in just two short sentences, making it a viral sensation.
In less than 24 hours, this post has been shared nearly 150,000 times. The quote? “We don’t have any hobbies. But we do try to get together a few times a month to judge people and complain about things.”
Sound familiar? It’s like meeting a long-lost soulmate. All best friends share those moments of playful banter and a bit of shade. That’s simply what true friendship is about: we get each other on a level that allows us to voice the unfiltered, judgy thoughts we’d never dare express to anyone else. It’s an experience akin to therapy, but with a lot more laughter and a touch of sass.
Where would we be without that friend who sends us a screenshot of a particularly ridiculous Facebook post with a cheeky “LOL. Can you believe this?” There’s nothing quite like the joy that comes from sharing a good laugh over a mutual understanding. The authenticity of this friendship dynamic is refreshing.
The conversation surrounding this post has exploded, with over 131,000 comments and counting. While some folks may swoop in claiming they’ve never judged anyone—perhaps quoting their favorite Tony Robbins passage—let’s be real. They can carry on with their positive vibes, while the rest of us will be here, sharing laughs and good times. Oh, and remember, you can’t sit with us!
