From the humblebrag to that dark soul obsessed with philosophy quotes he probably Googled, Facebook statuses are a minefield. Our feeds are filled with people telling us how many days it is ’til their holiday, and how incredible their lives are, but what if we spoke like we status?
The use of ‘status’ as a verb aside, here’s what happened when we reenacted actual Facebook statuses we’ve seen on our timelines (and probably been guilty of ourselves).

**Oh, don’t think we can’t see the brag beneath the self deprecation. We can all see it. **
