        I'm sure it's just a coincidence that all these fucking dipshits feel the need to let everyone know everything's ok when they take a pic

      I've heard that a firm slap across the face relieves certain types of anxiety as well.

        The 3 fingers are the *w the circled thumb and index are the *p. Also, Google passive aggressive, you're confused about that, too.
