If you, like myself, have encountered those annoying and slightly ditzy social media updates from past classmates and acquaintances, you'll love the 'Your Friend From High School' Twitter. The account is a satirical tribute to those tweets and Facebook status updates that you love to hate from friends whose lives led them down very different, and often questionable, paths.
"We went to high school together and you totally at least enjoyed me somewhat. Now you left but I still live in our hometown and I am LUV'N IT! HAHA," reads the anonymous user's description for the Twitter account, with the location being "Your Hometown." While some of the tweets are highly exaggerated for comedic purposes, many of them are all too real, like, "OMG AMY WINEHOSE DIED???!!???" which purposely includes the typo for dramatic effect.
Love them or hate them, the 'Your Friend From High School' Twitter posts are undeniably accurate, with tongue-in-cheek humor that I can't tear myself away from. You'll definitely want to share this find with friends, and maybe use it to drop a few hints.
