SEASON SPECIAL

Wrong hashtags

The hashtag #blessed is number one of the most annoying hashtags on earth, but you already knew that. Just after the disconnected hashtag, which has zero utility. And now that the happy holidays are ho-hooo-hooo’ing at your doorstep, I’d like to give you a fresh update on the cringeworthy hashtags that are floating around on Insta this holly jolly season. Believe me, the hashtagger (sounds like backstabber) is getting into the groove of that pine scent and lights.

#itsbeginningtolookalotlikechristmas

Where, how, what? It’s not snowing, Rudolph isn’t hopping anywhere, natural ice is a fairy tale from the past. No, but that doesn’t really matter, because this is the hashtag par excellence that you put under your Christmas tree on Insta. Christmas is actually just a Christmas tree. Ha, so we can also do Christmas on July 30th just fine from now on. I see it, enjoying your cocktail under the pine tree.

#lookingback

Hmmm, but isn’t that what throwback Thursday is for? That when you have nothing, but really NOTHING to post about your boring existence, you still have a tee-bee-teetje up your sleeve. Here comes #lookingback fishing a bit in that pond. I don’t think it’s appropriate. Hands up for #tbt.

“And just #hashtagging #like #you #please”

#christmasiscoming

Yup, that’s right. It’s December 20th today, so Christmas is coming to get ya in about five days. By the way, it feels a bit like a copy of the, by the way, strong: Winter is coming in Game Of Thrones. Copycats.

#newyearnewme

Nope, fooled you. When you crawl into bed on New Year’s Eve, you wake up the next day with? Yourself (and maybe a tasty surprise or a humongous hangover). And when I last checked, there was still no new version of myself shoppable, so it remains this oldie goldie. Yes, also in 2017.

#byebye2016hello2017

Yes. That. Come on, it’s not Sinterklaas waving you off.

#underthemistletoe

Do you have a mistletoe? I don’t. I always imagine that everyone slides past such a thing with circumlocutory movements. Except of course when you want to have a good kiss with that cutie. But this one and then in combination with #blessed, so cheesy.

And just #hashtagging #like #you #please, but do it together please.
